PentStudio WestLake Overview

PentStudio WestLake is a residential development in Tay Ho District designed around duplex-style apartments and hotel-inspired facilities. The project is associated with CTX Holdings, KAZE for interior design and The Ascott Limited for professional serviced-apartment operations. Project information identifies 321 apartments together with six Ambassador Penthouse units.

The building is particularly distinctive because many apartments use a two-level layout with a high internal ceiling and large windows. This gives the homes a more open vertical feel than conventional single-level apartments in Hanoi.

For renters, one of the main advantages is the choice between different individual units. Apartments can differ considerably in furniture, interior design, floor level, views, condition and the services included in the rental agreement, so the specific unit should always be checked before signing.

Apartment Types and Sizes

PentStudio is best known for its duplex configuration. The available rental inventory includes smaller one-bedroom homes as well as larger two- and three-bedroom properties. Some larger apartments have been created by combining units, so the exact layout and bedroom count should be confirmed from the individual listing.

1-Bedroom Duplex Apartments

One-bedroom duplex apartments are among the more practical choices for single professionals and couples who want more vertical space than a conventional one-bedroom flat. Existing listings on this page include approximately 74–76m² homes, with two bathrooms in several examples.

Typical features can include a living area, kitchen, bedroom level, large windows, wooden flooring and furnished interiors. Depending on the apartment, views may face the Red River, West Lake or the surrounding urban area.

2-Bedroom Duplex Apartments

Two-bedroom duplexes provide substantially more living space and are suitable for couples, small families or tenants who need a home office. Current examples on the page include approximately 176–178m² apartments, although the usable layout varies by unit.

Some larger two-bedroom apartments have generous living areas and balconies, while individual owners may have furnished their homes differently from the original serviced-apartment specification.

Larger and Combined Units

PentStudio's rental inventory can also include larger three-bedroom or combined apartments. Current examples displayed on this page include approximately 176m² and 190m² homes.

These larger properties are more suitable for families, executives or tenants who require separate bedrooms, additional living space or a larger entertaining area.

Furnishing and Interior Design

Most PentStudio rental listings offered through Hanoi Real Estate are furnished, but the furniture package should not be assumed to be identical across every apartment. Private owners can renovate or refurnish their units according to their own preferences.

Common features found in PentStudio apartments include:

• Duplex or two-level layouts
• Large windows providing natural light
• Wooden flooring
• Furnished living and dining areas
• Kitchen cabinets and appliances
• Air conditioning
• Modern bathrooms
• Wardrobes and bedroom furniture
• Balconies or terraces in selected apartments

Before renting, tenants should check the actual furniture inventory, appliance condition, water pressure, air-conditioning performance, natural light, noise levels and the condition of the stairs connecting the two levels.

Facilities and Services

PentStudio provides a range of residential and hotel-style facilities. Published project information includes an indoor four-season swimming pool, gym, sauna, children's play area and rooftop spaces. The project has also been marketed with reception, security and other supporting services.

Availability and charges for individual facilities can depend on the current building policy and the terms of the apartment rental agreement. Tenants should confirm which services are included in their quoted rent before signing the lease.

PentStudio Rental Prices

These figures reflect the PentStudio rental listings displayed on the page and can change when apartments are rented, withdrawn or repriced. The exact rental package should also clarify whether management fees, internet, utilities, parking or other services are included.

Who Should Rent at PentStudio?

PentStudio is particularly suitable for tenants who value an unusual duplex layout, generous ceiling height and convenient access to northern Tay Ho.

• Single professionals: One-bedroom duplexes provide a distinct living and sleeping separation without requiring a large conventional apartment.
• Couples: Larger one-bedroom and two-bedroom apartments provide additional living or work-from-home space.
• Small families: Two- and three-bedroom units offer more usable space than typical serviced apartments.
• Corporate tenants: The location provides access to Tay Ho, Ciputra, Ba Dinh and major roads towards the airport.
