My gti doesn't have any insulation under the bonnet, but is it worth getting any? Does it make much difference?

Not really needed unless you have a diesel.

Doesn't it reduce noise while driving along?

Was thinking of getting one considering the noise reduction

I noticed quite a significant reduction in noise after fitting insulation to mine.
