Ho Chi Minh-staden hotell

Absolute best break from hustle and bustle of chaotic Saigon.

The breakfast! The simplicity of the rooms. And most importantly the bath tub!

The breakfast spread was great. The spa is very affordable. The rooms were comfortable. When booking I accidentally just put the rooms down for one guest, even thought I had 2. Online the charge for 1 guest and 2 guest were the same. They tried to charge me $30 a guest per night. It was shady, but after explaining that 1-2people online doesn't change the rate. They accepted.

We were pampered with excellent accommodations and good food plus service. We could have stayed a bit longer, 8 days should have been 10 days!

The staff were all very friendly and helpful. They immediately found an opportunity to upgrade us on check in. Although breakfast was a nice feature each day along with some drinks / snacks in the evening, we didn't get our 50usd value out of this. Additionally, we were so looking forward to using the pool, and the First day we got a chance was Friday. Little did we know that the hotel finds more value in charging admission for the locals to come and party by the pool on Fridays than ensuring their paid guests have a pool to use. We could barely walk around the pool let alone find a place to sit and relax. Absolutely a disappointment to to say the least. Would not stay here again.

Eventually we appreciate the staff in remedying an major issue. We booked the hotel for 12/31/2015, in order to celebrate the day and New Year Eve night in a 5 star hotel. When we arrived at the hotel and were informed the pool, which was a major key in our booking this hotel, would be closed to guests due to a New Years Eve party being setup at the pool for that evening. We explained that we booked this hotel in order to enjoy the day pool side and diner that evening. In tradition of the Asian culture, we were told repeatedly that the reason was for the setup for the NYE party that night. As if this explanation would 1) resolve our issue and 2) be an acceptable reason as to not be concerned that we were land locked to our room and not out at the pool. We conveyed that we had contacted the hotel directly, prior to booking to 1) confirm that their was no compensatory costs due to the holiday booking and 2) that we would not have anything excluded that would normally be available to guests at the hotel. Such as any construction, pool and spa access. We were told no issues or restrictions. So we booked. After much heated discussion, at check-in, a manager availed and provided a remedy of allowing us to transport, for pool time, to a lesser quality and star level property at their expense of a taxi. In addition, provided us access to a higher level room and lounge service. However, no offer of access to the New Years Eve party at the pool, unless we paid the $50 fee. We appreciate the effort they made but they went kicking and screaming in providing a remedy. Unless we pushed our unhappiness and not settling on how we should be happy to be lied to about the pool access, before booking, we would have not received the appropriate attention a hotel guest should receive from a 5 star hotel. On another note: The guests, and condoned by the floor management, allowed other guests in the adjacent room, to go in and out, back and forth among the multiple rooms with no respect to the amount of noise they made with doors slamming against the dead bolt constantly for 5 plus hours non-stop.

This hotel is beautiful! the breakfast buffet and room service was great! The pool party Saigon soul was supper fun great music (not for kids). overall cleanliness was up to par. Really happy with the prices I will cook here next time I visit.

price of food was too expensive so we decided to skip meals there.

They were kind and friendly and tried their best to fulfill my requests. I have seen other hotels during my stay in Ho Chi Minh, and I was glad that I chose to stay here. Perhaps compared to the other hotels, the hotel was located in a slightly far side of the main streets. However, this was not a big problem since things were easily accessible by foot or taxi.
