The room is small and cramped, but the design is reasonable and not too crowded. The materials are very solid, and the furniture is very heavy and difficult to move. The design style is also very modern, very similar to the new houses of Huazhu Club in China. The service is at the level of 4 stars. There is no need to expect the swimming pool on the rooftop, which is basically unusable. And there is no view to see, which is not a big deal. Although there are some shortcomings due to the small space, it is still excellent overall. To be honest, the price is a bit high because its location is not very good and the distance is still a bit far. The biggest advantage is that everything is very new and the facilities are very new.

While the hotel offers a pleasant experience overall, it would greatly benefit from enhancing the service quality at the reception. A stronger focus on effective communication among the staff would elevate the guest experience. It was our 2nt time to staying here. First one was okay. All the receptionists are needed to be focus on customer centric! By the way, rooftop pool was great!

I recently stayed at the Hilton Saigon in District 1 and was thoroughly impressed. I chose an Executive Room with a view of the Saigon River, which was breathtaking.
The room’s design, cleanliness, and spaciousness were exactly what I expect from Hilton’s classic excellence. The breakfast was delightful, offering a wide variety of options.
Additionally, we needed something in the room and called the reception. Within 5 minutes, the staff arrived and resolved the issue promptly. This level of efficiency is rare, even in many 5-star hotels, where delays often occur. Hilton once again proved its iconic standard in this regard.
The hotel is also very centrally located. Most historical sites are within walking distance, making it incredibly convenient for exploring the city.
I only stayed for one night, but the experience was exceptional. I wish all hotels maintained this standard. I rate my stay 5 out of 5.
Perfect for posting now! Let me know if anything else comes to mind.

This B&B is the most satisfying one I have ever stayed in. Before we arrived, the staff was already waiting for us to check in. Afterwards, they carefully explained to us how to use the B&B's facilities and provided us with nearby delicacies. As soon as we entered, everyone was busy taking pictures. There was a beautiful view outside the window. This house is very clean and very suitable for a family to live together.

Fantastic hotel with hot shower, clean towels, daily cleaning, 24/7 gym and laundry. Check in was quick and easy. Room includes TV with some English channels plus wake up call device. You can also choose to do your own laundry here. One load in the washer and dryer is 50,000 VND each, about 2 USD. There are only two machines each so it may get busy. The only downside is it’s on the edge of District 1 so you need to take a Grab. It’s not expensive but may take 15 minutes or so depending on traffic.

Thuong was really responsive and quick to help with any questions or issues we had during our stay. Also, cleaning was provided twice during our 3-week stay, which was a nice surprise.

No swimming pool or gym. Just room to stay.
No automatic cleaning service by anyone. If you need, you have to ask.
Basin is dirty after long use. I think the cleaner did not clean them well. It is very easy to clean. Cleaners need to be trained on the area to clean. Bed is hard and pillow is very very soft. If you need a place to stay and no fuss & for a transit night, this is basic stay. Location is near to a mall. F&B at mall is expensive for VN standard.
Self check-in and out.

It has great view of Landmark and very easy access to grocery and FamilyMart right in front of the condo. Literally walking distance to Landmark shopping mall. The condo has washing machine, fridge, kitchen but no microwave. I don’t trust their cups, utensils and pots so we don’t use it. The floor unfortunately is very slippery. Idk why but I have to wear slipper once I touchdown into the house. Toilet is very dull and need deep cleaning. However, service is good. Need to use WhatsApp to communicate and they will arrange ppl to clean etc..

Excellent
AANAThuong is polite, friendly, and helpful. The place is clean, good and enough amenities. Nice view from high floor. I would definitely stay again here.
NnonchalantThis is not your regular hotel, its an off beat experience. We stayed in double deluxe room which had a queen size bed and a hammock! The rooms are aesthetically decorated, with a large wooden platform working as the base for the bed. The furniture is minimalistic, the bathrooms were clean and aesthetically pleasing.
There is refreshments bar which has unlimited stacks, water and beer. The breakfast again is leaning towards minimalism, fewer choices but wholesome choices.
The staff were cordial, we reached very early in the morning and were greeted by Thomas, who was kind enough to guide us about the surrounding area and where we can spend time. They have luggage store for guests checking in early or checking out late as needed.
Overall, we had a pleasant and memorable stay at The Hammock, I highly recommend them.
ZZel ChongFREE ROOM UPGRADE AND EARLY CHECK-IN! I booked a total of 4 nights in two separate bookings as Trip.com had promo codes. I booked Deluxe Twin room and only found out that this room had no windows (they changed the room name to Narra no windows a few days before my check-in date), and I was sad that I could not cancel the booking as it was prepaid. To my surprise, they upgraded my room to Premier Twin room (with windows) for free when I checked in, without me even asking! I have been to ho chi minh 4 times now and this was the best stay I had experienced in ho chi minh. I always researched the hotels by reading all the reviews before finally booking one, and I am really glad I booked Silverland May Hotel!!
Pros:
- Early check-in at 12+pm (usual check-in 3pm)
- No language barrier with the staff (all staff understood English pretty well)
- Buffet breakfast had at least 2 variations, they also have a separate menu offering food choices off the normal buffet spread (you can ask them for it) (best choices: almond croissants & ham, egg and cheese sandwich)
- Hotel Spa is a MUST TRY. I tried it and did not go for outside spas that I had planned to go. Went to the hotel spa and did 3 services in 2 days!
(1) Relaxing Package costing 1,200,000 VND (2hrs): Swedish massage, Body scrub (exfoliate with himalayan salt), Body wrap (nourish in oat & milk i believe)
(2) Facial spa costing 900,000 VND (~45min): Mild exfoliation and nourishment (my face felt super clean and brightened a lot after the spa! would do it again if i could)
(3) Hotstone massage costing 800,000 VND (1hr): just wanted to try a different kind of massage but I still prefer the swedish massage (the heat of the hotstones was out of my comfort zone haha)
- The hotel restaurant / cafe / in-room dining food choices were good too: best was the Beef Phó, it had more ingredients than phó selling outside. We went to the hotel cafe and was surprisingly offered 50% off our cakes so of course we had to order! The cafe offers the same food menu that the hotel restaurant offers, they will cook it and serve it to you if you are sitting in the cafe at Level G.
- Free afternoon tea (but I missed all four days of the tea session so no comments)
- Rooftop pool was very pretty and chill.
Cons:
- The quality of the tissue in the hotel rooms are bad. So thin and filmsy (2-ply). I bought my own 3-ply tissue and did not use the tissue in the rooms at all.
- Could have offered disposable bedroom slippers which would be more hygienic.
- Water pressure was not very strong, had to stand so close to the showerhead.
MmegOverall a good value for money hotel. Lovely amenities and the breakfast and afternoon tea being included in the room rate is a nice touch. The walls between each room are very thin, so you could hear everything going on in the next room.
CConnieVery near to Saigon centre. But also very near to bars. Thus night time will be lively and may not be recommended for night walks unless you are interested in night activities. Hotel service is accommodating and very polite. Complete amenities and breakfast buffet is good. Enjoyable stay overall except for some noise due to the area. But quieten down by 1230am
GGuest UserI recently stayed at this hotel, and I have to say, the experience was extremely disappointing. Upon check-in, I wasn't informed about the hotel facilities or the breakfast hours and location. I also wasn’t given any guidance on how to get to the elevator. Beyond the bellboy service (where tipping was expected), the staff was not proactive at all in assisting with anything. I was especially shocked when I saw an elderly person get trapped by the elevator doors, and two bellboys standing by without helping.
On New Year’s Eve, I was looking forward to watching the fireworks over the Saigon River from my room, but the hotel’s own fireworks were so smoky that I couldn't see anything through my window (I was on the 10th floor!). The whole fireworks experience was ruined, and to make matters worse, the loud music continued for another hour, disturbing my sleep.
The breakfast experience was just as frustrating. Because I wasn't told where to eat the previous day, I accidentally went to a temporary dining room, which had no staff who spoke English, making it difficult to ask any questions. The food choices were extremely limited, and I was surprised to find no milk or basic breakfast items available. The food quality was far below the standards expected from a 5-star hotel. After some searching, I discovered the actual breakfast restaurant was downstairs, and the restaurant supervisor instructed me to carry my tray downstairs myself. This felt extremely inconvenient and unnecessary, and once I was downstairs, I was told to wait outside for a table to become available. Standing outside with two trays of food in my hands felt humiliating, especially in a 5-star hotel.
The downstairs restaurant did offer more variety, including smoked salmon, cured ham, and waffles, but by the time I made it down, I had already eaten most of my breakfast, so I didn’t get to fully enjoy it.
Finally, when I went to pick up my luggage from the front desk, I was asked to search through a pile of luggage to find my own. I asked how I was supposed to identify it in such a pile, and even if I could, I couldn’t move all the luggage around by myself. This was not only inconvenient but also frustrating.
Overall, I can only give this hotel 2 stars. One star for the hotel’s physical facilities, and the other because the review form doesn't allow for a zero-star rating. Otherwise, I would have rated it even lower. This stay was a huge letdown and didn’t come close to the 5-star experience I was expecting. Both the service and the amenities were severely lacking. I hope the hotel takes this feedback seriously and improves for future guests.
IIc3miloI recently had the pleasure of staying at M City Hotel Saigon, and I must say, it exceeded all my expectations! The hotel's modern design, impeccable service, and prime location made for a truly unforgettable experience.
Highlights:
• Spacious and stylish room with comfortable bedding
• Friendly and attentive staff, always willing to help
• Convenient location, close to major attractions and shopping hubs
• Cleanliness of the room is great
GGuest UserLonger review to explain our experience. It is not 4 stars. Maybe 20/30 years ago it was but not now.
We paid about $200 for one night, for a river view club room with afternoon and nightly candles cocktails and club room access, 3pm late checkout and 15% off airport transport.
When we arrived they would not tell us how much airport transport would be for leaving the next day. Just that it was expensive and we should get a cab instead. That was a little disappointing, we should have pushed for the price but we were tired from our flight and hungry.
The room we were put in was grubby and had a bad smell and NO river view. We called reception to mention we had booked the river view. They moved us down and across the hall. The new room had a nice view, had clearly being prepared for guests with brochures and pamphlets. No smell and had been recently cleaned. It felt like they were just trying to see if they could get away with giving us the bad room instead of the one we had booked. I've added pictures of the view from both rooms.
After moving we went to afternoon tea which was really nice. Although our room move meant we had to wait because no one had shared the records of our room switch which was kind of awkward. Once we got to it the food was nice and filling (see food pictures) The bathrooms in that lounge were out of hand soap.
We went back to the room. Had a shower but the shower/bath drains onto the floor so a large unsafe pool of water Is right under your feet as you step out of the tub.
Went out for the canapès. That was disappointing. We got there at 6:20pm. Everything had gone cold except the fried rice. There were no cocktails, just bottles of whisky and rum and you could take a can of coke, sprite, or tonic water to mix yourself. Luckily we were still full from the afternoon tea.
We went out nearby and came back to find the street party next to the hotel was still raging and although the people mostly went home, the music players kept going until about 1am. That was awful and I'd recommend not staying on the river side if you're staying Friday to Sundays and want to get up early.
Next morning we went to breakfast, it was a very small selection. We got a bread roll that was hard as a rock. Nothing was very fresh. It was disappointing. Also can only get black coffee or machine coffee.
We went out for the day and came back to pack at 2:30 for our flight and the safe had stopped working. Could not even type in the PIN. This was nervwracking as it was our last day and passports were in there. It took 4 calls to reception and 1 hour for them to send someone to fix it. Batteries had run out. These things happen but maybe there should be a schedule for changing these things or at least a swift response when someone is trying to check out and cannot open it. When the safe technician did show up he was great and very personable.
Once I got our passports we checked out and they stored our bags safely in the luggage room for us until we got our cab.
On the other amenities; the gym seemed good snd had indoor and outdoor terrace with more weights. The doormen in lobby are cheerful. The pool was very basic, I think it looks better in the pictures. The lobby bar is expensive. The lobby is pretty but smells like it was mopped with dirty water sometimes which is unpleasant.
Overall it was a bit of a letdown. I'd give it 3 stars, it would be 2 if we had stayed in our first room. We would return to the area but try a different hotel.
EErickI stayed 3 nights at the Ramana Saigon hotel.
Good location with easy walks through that part of the city if you do not mind pollution and a lot of traffic (mostly motorbikes). I loved discovering the city with its hectic and very lively environment. The hotel is next to district one. The railway station is a 10 to 15 minutes walk away. Plenty of eateries around and convenience shops next to the hotel.
The staff at the reception were very welcoming and helpful. True professionals. That was also the case of security and those in charge of the rooms. I mentioned a very noisy service door next to my room and the issue was fixed immediately.
Now I was not too impressed by the service and the attention at the restaurant during breakfast. Too busy with the many tour groups keeping the restaurant fully busy (and noisy) from 6 AM to 9 AM (seating: almost 300 people) then a bit quieter until closing time at 9:30 AM. Today I ate breakfast a bit later than usual at 8:45 and noticed that tables were not cleaned after guests left. Items were removed but nothing more resulting in empty tables with dirty table sets and no more forks, knives, etc... The food at the restaurant is for the masses. No real options for people with diabetes for example as pretty much all items are on the sweet or very sweet side. Including cooked vegetables (sugar and fat). 3 different salads to choose from but no simple dressing with just vinegar and oil. They care for the many Indian guests with a few vegetarian options but ... I tried and ... my glucometer did not appreciate and hit the red zone :(
The rooms are old fashioned but nice and well maintained. The bed was comfortable. Not hard as is rather usual in Asia. The noise insulation is on the poor side. The air conditioning system is rather loud. There is a well sized fridge in the room and plenty of space :)
The swimming pool on the 5th floor (outdoor) is small but nice and there are a few lounge chairs to relax. It was not busy when I was there in the early afternoon but I guess I was lucky ;-)
The guests at the hotel are overwhelmingly tourists traveling in big groups. Mainly Indians and Chinese but also some Westerners.
Bottom line: I enjoyed my stay at the Ramana and I understand that the mass tourism supports their business which, to me, comes with some disadvantages: overcrowded restaurant for breakfast, very loud and noisy guests at times ... and the flow of such guests is quite constant during the day (departures crossing arrivals).
GGuest UserLocation was great and rather centralized. It's right at the corner of the happening night life street. Music were loud but manageable in the room.
Staffs were friendly and helpful. There's a massage place at the entrance of the hotel which is very convenient if you need one.
Just 1 downside is that the sink has some pipe issues whereby it will leak but issue wasn't that big to complain about.
Overall would recommend the place to stay.
