Nesta Hotel Saigon

Nesta hotel was ok. If I except that the room had no window (which was my mistake), it is a really bad experience because it is very claustrophobic and depressing. The location is quite good, the room is clean but the walls are quite dirty, the pool is not intended for swimming, perhaps only for chilling, it is too small and no space for towels to lay down or anything. Everything else is in place when it comes to hotel. I have a huge complaint that one night I probably had food poisoning and I vomited all night, I called the reception 3 times to bring me water and each time I told them to bring 3-4 bottles, but each time they brought 2 of 500 ml each which I drank in less than half an hour, so I had to call them again 2 more times and each time I told them the same thing but I got 2 bottles each. I could blame the hotel service in such a state.

I chose this hotel because of its central location to all the tourist places and position on a quiet side street. We caught bus 152 from the airport to save and it dropped us near enough to the hotel. It's within 5 min walk from a lot of restaurants, sites and the Ben Thanh market and this is a recommended area. The rooms are compact but ours (804) had a window (looking onto the next building) and the bathroom was good with a separate shower, it was cleaned daily. There was a safe in the room and a small fridge / mini bar, kettle, TV and comfortable beds. The staff were english speaking and very friendly, they helped us get a taxi twice with no problem. The pool and outdoor area is small but nice. We loved the breakfasts and found the food of great quality and taste and better than we were expecting for what we paid for the room package. The only negative for us was that on our last night, the front desk called and accused us of damaging the pillowcases (for the last 3 nights) and said that we would need to pay. The marks are clearly from an iron, which we did not have with us. In the morning the manager sorted it out but it was still really disappointing as we had had such a good experience at this hotel until then. To note, there are many very narrow hotels in the area so I assume the rooms are more on the compact side at other places too. On the tourist side I recommend Tonkin coffee, just down the street, the Banh Mi place (near the traffic circle to the west) and Saigon Eco craft (Next to Thanh Dai Botique shop - just south of Nesta) for souvenirs, especially coffee. The outside of the hotel pictured below is an example of what many of the hotels look like - super thin.

My family had a great time here. Convenient location and located at the central of HCM, their breakfast is supper good. Friendly staff too. Highly recommend

The hotel located just 2 mins walk from Ben Tanh Market. The area surrounded with many restaurants/pubs E.g. Pizza4Ps. The hotel room is clean and neat. There is bath tub in the room! Overall experience is good. Staffs are friendly and able to speak English Fluently.

service is outstanding. patient to assist and listen to requests.
