Muong Thanh Grand Saigon Centre Hotel

Ho Chi Minh City|1km from Saigon Boat Tour

Latest booking 13 hrs ago

This hotel was chosen because our original hotel decided to cancel our booking. There is a lot of choice with regards to accommodation in Saigon and choosing is case of ‘pot luck’. After a quick search, a choice was made… On arrival to the airport, we were greeted by the hotel’s transport and driver. He whisked us through the mad traffic of this town. Our transport was organised by Ms Thoai Yen through several emails who made sure that we were sorted for our pickup. A big thank you to her! On arrival at the hotel we received a warm welcome at this hotel. We were allocated our room which was 619. This was a big, bright, airy room which fit the needs for our stay. The bathroom was a good size too with an excellent shower. Food and drink were superb at this hotel! Breakfast was included in the rate and there was an excellent choice to be had. We had two meals here as well which were excellent and very good value for money. Considering the hotel was busy for breakfast, the restaurant was quiet both nights we visited which was a shame as the food is excellent. I accept there is plenty of choices to be had with regards food in Saigon, so it’s personal preference I suppose ….. The facilities at the hotel was good too including a swimming pool on the roof. It’s not the biggest though and the day I went to swim, it was rammed with a group of kids. Still luck of the draw…. Staff were friendly and very helpful here at the hotel. Overall a generally great stay at this hotel! We had an issue on the first night as we were awoken at 00:30 by a constant thumping noise which was frustrating as we had to be up to do a city tour. A phone call about 50 minutes later, as enough was enough, I got hold of reception and 2 minutes later security was knocking on the door. He didn’t speak a lot of English, but whatever he said and did, the problem was solved, so a big thank you to him. What it was still remains a mystery to me.. After doing the city tour, I realised that the hotels location is excellent! You are not far from the ‘Notre Dame Cathedral and Saigon Post Office’ which is handy. Saigon is a huge city broken up into Districts, and the Muong Thanh is in District 1 which most tours will pick you up from with no hassles at all. You really can’t go wrong staying at this hotel…..

Cozrum Homes - Premier Residence
3.7/519 Reviews
I booked one night for working stay. The apartment is nearby the city center and can go through by Dien Bien Phu st / Xo Viet Nghe Tinh st. Not many restaurants nearby, or early closed, but there were also a cf shop and ministop which are easy to walk there. Room was modern, large and convenient. The electricity was really strong. The bathroom was clean and cosy with big shampoo/soap bottles. They have good TV signals and many internet connections but quite unstabled. I came in at night so the balcony was not-in-use with me and when I woke up, the bright from outside is so good to enjoy. Not many staffs, just an elder housekeeper who is very kind, sympathetic and helpful. The security was good so pleasure staying there. Tips: they have a kitchen with full equipped, I don't think you should cook but may be, you can enjoy a cup of hot instant noodles and a cosy sofa when you want to have a break after long time using computer.

Everything is fine. It took a while to get in touch with the manager, but within an hour everything was resolved with the help of support. The number provided did not answer. In fact it was different. Otherwise, an excellent apart-hotel for the money.
Somerset Ho Chi Minh City
4.7/5109 Reviews
Pros: Lovely rooms (two-bedroom) which had everything you needed. Nicely decorated and felt upscale. Hotel was slightly off the main road and rooms were quiet. HCMC roads are busy and noisy!! Small but clean gym, small playground for kids (indoor and outdoor). Pool is big and clean. Restaurant area next to pool. Lobby and reception area is very nice, smells good and has a luxurious feel. Location was good, near the zoo. Cons: only one: breakfast. Vietnamese food is very good but this was the hotel’s weakest link. Limited choice and not that delicious, if you got there after 8.30am almost all the warm food was cold. Hope this can be improved.
HoLo Fairy House Saigon - Serviced Homestay
3.5/53 Reviews
Lovely homestay hotel, located within easy walking distance to district one and three, on a side street off the main drag. There is a Family Mart right next door, for any snacks or beverages you may need. If you have a craving for McDonald's or Popeye's, they're about a ten minute walk away: otherwise, there are many local restaurants everywhere you look. I would definitely recommend this hotel, as they have a wonderful staff and the rooms have a funky decor. No elevator, but it's only three stories, so no big deal.
Bed In Town Saigon
3.4/512 Reviews
Good service staff The room is cute, quiet, but the bathroom stinks most of the time. Towels are not provided. Everything was missing except soap and shampoo. The drawer couldn't be closed. Tell the housekeeper to come change the bed for you. The housekeeper only came to make the bed but didn't change it at all. So I thought that for staying for 7 days, I should change the mattress. The room is cute. There is a microwave, cups, plates, and hot water kettle. There are no spoons. Overall, it's almost good. I like it. During the day, there's a guard watching all the time. You can walk around and find something to eat easily.
