The "Hanoi Hilton" was not a hotel. It was a "nick-name" for a (concrete building) prison in Hanoi (the capital of N. Vietnam), were US POW's were kept. Nearly all of whom were airmen who had been shot down while bombing or strafing targets in North Vietnam. Very few US POW's were transported from the South to the North.
