Cau Giay Street is one of the key thoroughfares in western Hanoi, linking the Kim Ma – Nguyen Khanh Toan area with Xuan Thuy, Dich Vong and technology office clusters. It is a suitable option for businesses seeking an address with both commercial value and convenient access to young talent from nearby universities.
The office-for-lease market on Cau Giay Street is clearly segmented, including Grade B office towers, commercial complexes, serviced offices, standalone buildings and offices in alleys. This allows tenants to select options suited to everyone from startups to companies requiring several hundred square metres of space.
Overview of Cau Giay Street's location
Cau Giay lies along a transport corridor connecting Ba Dinh and Dong Da with Cau Giay, Tu Liem and western urban areas. From this street, businesses can travel to Nguyen Khanh Toan, Hoang Quoc Viet, Xuan Thuy, Tran Thai Tong, Duy Tan, Pham Hung and Ring Road 3.
The street's distinctive advantage is its combination of traditional commercial areas, universities, dense residential neighbourhoods and technology business clusters. The area around Chua Ha Station on the Nhon – Hanoi Station Metro line provides an additional public transport option for employees, particularly useful for businesses with larger teams.

Development history of Cau Giay Street
Cau Giay is a place name associated with a bridge and a historic area, rather than the name of a specific person. Therefore, the street was not named after a notable figure, and it would be inappropriate to link to a Wikipedia page about an unrelated person. Businesses can find further background on the place name on Wikipedia's Cau Giay page.
The name Cau Giay is commonly associated with a bridge in the area of an old village once known for papermaking. The area also bears the marks of the two Cau Giay battles during resistance against the French in 1873 and 1882; historical materials published by the Hanoi Library also record these events in the history of Cau Giay's development.
Through urbanisation, Cau Giay has evolved from a transport route linking the city centre with outlying areas into an important commercial, educational and office corridor. The presence of universities, Metro stations, shopping centres and high-rise buildings has created sustained appeal for the office market along this street.

Rental rate and advantage analysis
Office rental rates on Cau Giay Street depend largely on main-road location, distance to the Metro, building grade and lease area. For Grade B offices, rates typically range from approximately USD 11–16.5/m²/month; small spaces or offices in alleys may have budgets of approximately VND 9.5–18 million/month.
Small businesses may consider serviced offices at Discovery Complex to reduce fit-out costs and begin operations quickly. For businesses requiring larger floorplates, The West or CTM Complex may be more suitable due to flexible areas, strong building visibility and convenient connections to western technology clusters.
A notable advantage of Cau Giay Street is that it not only serves businesses seeking office space, but also supports recruitment, client meetings and brand building. Businesses should compare total costs, including rent, service charges, VAT, parking, after-hours air-conditioning, fit-out rent-free periods and annual escalation policies.
