Hanoi is Vietnam’s capital, a thousand-year-old city built around its lakes and the curve of the Red River in the north of the country. It moves at a calmer pace than Ho Chi Minh City: tree-lined boulevards, French colonial villas, the narrow streets of the Old Quarter, and a fast-growing skyline to the west. For anyone renting here, the appeal is that mix of history and modern convenience. You can start the day with coffee by Hoan Kiem Lake and end it with a walk around West Lake at sunset.
Each area of Hanoi has its own character. Tay Ho, wrapped around West Lake, is the city’s best-known expat neighborhood, with lakeside villas, serviced apartments, international schools and cafés along Xuan Dieu and To Ngoc Van. Ba Dinh, home to the embassies and the Kim Ma and Lieu Giai areas, is central and leafy, while Hoan Kiem puts you in the Old Quarter and the French Quarter, close to everything. West of the center, Cau Giay and Nam Tu Liem (My Dinh, Keangnam) are the business districts, popular with Korean and Japanese families and anyone working in the new office towers. Across the Red River, Long Bien offers more space around Vinhomes Riverside, and big developments like Times City (Hai Ba Trung), Royal City (Thanh Xuan) and Vinhomes Ocean Park (Gia Lam) are small cities in themselves.
The Hanoi property market has a home for every kind of renter. Modern apartments fill the towers of the western districts and the large developments — many with a pool, gym and round-the-clock security — while tube houses, garden houses and lakeside villas line the quieter lanes of Tay Ho and Ba Dinh. Most rentals come furnished and ready to move into. Compared with real estate in Singapore, Seoul or most Western capitals, the same budget buys noticeably more space here.
Leases are straightforward. The rental term is flexible, from a few months to a year or more, and most landlords ask for a deposit of one to two months plus the first period up front. Longer commitments usually earn a better rate, and your landlord handles the temporary-residence registration with the local police — a routine step for every foreign tenant. One local detail worth asking about: Hanoi has a real winter, cool and damp from December to March, so heating and a dehumidifier are worth checking before you sign.
What surprises most new arrivals is the value. Hanoi remains affordable for a capital city: a comfortable apartment costs a fraction of a similar home in most Western cities, and everyday life — street food, Grab rides, coffee — is inexpensive. Add fast internet, two metro lines and a welcoming international community, and it’s easy to see why so many people stay far longer than they planned.
Whatever you’re after — a lake-view apartment in Tay Ho, a family house near the international schools, or a simple base close to the office — the listings on this page are refreshed daily from local agents, so you’re always seeing what’s genuinely available across Hanoi. Filter by district, price and home type above, and reach out about any property that catches your eye.
Looking for houses for rent in Hanoi? You're in the right place. Vietnam's capital is one of the country's most popular cities for expats, diplomats, teachers, and long-term visitors, and the rental market here has a house or apartment to rent for every budget. Whether you want a lakeside apartment near West Lake in Tay Ho, a family house in Ba Dinh close to the embassies, or a furnished apartment near the offices of Cau Giay and My Dinh, you'll find current listings updated daily below. Most rentals come fully furnished with a kitchen, wifi, and air conditioning — ready to move into right away.
Monthly rentals are the norm across the city, with flexible rental durations for both short stays and long-term, year-long leases. Rent ranges from cheap budget studios to premium lakeside houses for rent, and many homes offer two- and three-bedroom layouts — including 3-bedroom houses for rent in Hanoi that are ideal for families or shared living space. Compared with buying real estate, renting lets you settle into an area of Hanoi and get to know each neighborhood before you commit.
Browse the houses, apartments, and villas for rent below to compare bedrooms, bathrooms, districts, and pricing in USD across Hanoi. New rental listings are added daily from local real estate agents and property managers, so check back often for the latest options.
You'll find furnished houses and apartments for rent in every district — from Tay Ho and Ba Dinh to Hoan Kiem's Old Quarter, Cau Giay, Nam Tu Liem, and Long Bien across the Red River — with long-term rentals that range from cheap studios to high-end lakeside houses and villas. Many are ideal for families, couples, and remote workers, and new rental listings are added daily from local real estate agents and property managers.
Rental durations are flexible. You'll find furnished long-term rentals on six- and twelve-month leases as well as monthly apartment rentals for shorter stays, and the minimum rental period is usually one to three months. Budget-conscious renters can still find houses and apartments under $300 a month in quieter districts, while West Lake villas sit at the top of the range. Hanoi has four seasons, including a cool, damp winter, so it's worth asking whether a home has heating (most air conditioners also heat) and a dehumidifier. Utilities, a one- to two-month deposit, and any building management fee are normally arranged directly with the landlord or agent, and most furnished homes include a modern kitchen, wifi, washer, and air conditioning.
