This hotel is a good value for money option in the backpacker district. The room was comfortable but basic with cable TV and a firm bed. I was on the street but I didn't really notice the street noise. The location is the main attribute though. On the block there are a number of bars and restaurants, with several of... More

this 3 star hotel was just great. we had read reviews on the rooms facing the noisy street, so requested a quiet room which we got on the 5th floor and facing into the courtyard. Staff very nice and efficient, top quality rooms and service for the price. Location terrific and breakfast outstanding. Would highly recommend. More

Stayed at this hotel twice during our stay. Spacious reception area with seating area and toilets. Two lifts for guests, never needed to wait too long for one. Rm705 Overlooking park & Pham Ngu Lao Street. Noisy from street traffic and aerobics class starting a 0530hrs. Room itself was spacious with all amenities inc. tea & coffee making facilities and...

Stayed 3-nights during trip between Siem Reap and Hanoi. Easy access to Cu Chi Tunnels and Tay Ninh. Plenty of very good cafes and restaraunts within a few minutes walk of hotel. Longer walk to other attractions (Opera House, Notre Dame Cathedral, Continental Hotel, Rex Hotel, HCM Peoples Committee Building, etc). Handy to shops. Staff very helpful and polite. Room... More

Pleasant staff, satisfactory, clean room, quiet, good aircon, coffee maker, tv with cable. The rooms at the side have a view of a blank wall. I was there on business a short walk from the hotel but it is not walking distance to anything and way out of the city center. 30 mins taxi to the markets, nightlife and attractions. More

We arrived at midnight and of course we were very tired from the long trip. There were numerous taxi drivers at the arrival hall of the airport and although we read some literature on some taxi scams we were still taken for a ride. Our driver showed us his Vinusun taxi ID and off we went. Unfortunately, it was too... More

Good hotel excellent lokatie.Wij stayed here at the beginning and end of our trip to Vietnam. Remarkably spacious clean rooms, good beds, bathroom also okay. Breakfast more than adequate, staff friendly. Disadvantage: we slept one night on the street, very noisy .... strangely enough our room had no thermopane. Distance to airport is ± 30minutes. More

The staff here is very nice and accommodating and those at the front desk speak English. Special requests were met with a smile and everyone was eager to assist. My two 3 day stays there in a two week period were fine; I had no real complaints. The rooms were clean and the beds comfortable although one smelled of smoke... More

A truly 5 star hotel - right in the best part of town! We paid $55 / night ( which was a little XY, but well worth the additional $$ ). We got a room at the back of the hotel 413, and it was quiet, air-conditioning was great, fantastic bed, and all the amenities you want after a few... More
