Saigon - Ho Chi Minh City Hotel Reviews

Accommodations are ok for a budget hotel. The room pictures on the website are exactly the same. This was a determining factor in booking this hotel as i was concerned that most of their competition did not show pictures of their rooms. Breakfast is very simple. Just a choice of eggs (scrambled or sunny side up), french bread and instant noodles. Restaurants and pho places are abundant in the area and are very cheap so you wont go hungry.- 02/10/2009, Mrs. Maria Angela Baybay - Tan

Some towels are not very clean, can see spots on the towels.- 24/09/2009, Mr. Mun Heng Leong

Great friendly hotel Staff run out and greet you as you arrive and escort you accross the busy road Breakfast was very good -- I have been in 5 star hotels with worse breakfasts Something new all the time- 19/08/2008, Mr. Stephen Jeffress

This hotel ios in a great location, walking distance to the main Ben Thanh market and in proximity to lots of restaurants and street shopping.It is quite new, clean and comfortable. The restaurant in the hotel is on the roof top so has a great 180 degree view of saigon and the food is great- a mixture of Asian an western dishes. I would highly recommend it.- 11/08/2008, Ms. Amanda Coyne

Dear People , I have been to Vietnam many since 1992 . One thing for sure is this Duc Vuong Hotel is the TOP of the LINE . The people the service is some of the BEST . John Kellenbarger- 16/09/2009, Mr. John Kellenbarger

one of the room we stayed is a bit dark because the lights are under the plaster ceiling. Probably can install extra lights in the room.- 02/04/2009, Ms. Su Tien Teoh

The Royal Pearl is an excellent hotel, all round great service and the reception staff and restaurant staff have good English. This is very important for travellers. It can make or break a holiday.- 20/04/2009, Ms. karen walsh

My wife and I really enjoyed staying at this hotel. Overall a very memorable experience. The hotel staff was very accomadating, and helped to arrange some tours that we found in a brochure. Our only complaint was the hotel restaurant. the breakfast buffet was okay, but they didn't have/serve half the stuff on their menu. I highly recommend staying here, but eating your meals elsewhere.- 26/03/2009, Mr. Brian Downs

The reception staff wanted me to wait before leaving so they could check to see if I'd taken anything from the minibar, even after I told them I hadn't taken anything, which I thought was quite rude. This has never happened to me at any other hotel before. The hotel was incredibly crowded with numerous tour groups clogging up the lifts. One of the lifts broke. My room didn't have a window. The cleaning and porter staff were very nice and always said hello.- 29/01/2010, Ms. Tara Imrie

The only disappointement is that the hotel doesn't provide us with a baby cot, otherwise it's a perfect hotel. ; ) Clean room, friendly and helpful staffs, good breakfast too.- 26/11/2008, Mr. Dave Oh

the staff were very helpfull, will be staying there again next next i go- 15/02/2010, Mr. darren henderson

We went in a group of 7. At 1st, while booking through internet, under comment column, we did indicate the 3 rooms to be on the same level. When we reached the hote, they told us it is impossible as the type of rooms of each level is different. Therefore, our 3 rooms are separated in 3 different levels. I would be happy if they informed us earlier. Overall, the front desk people are friendly and helpful. The location is at the central. The rooms are clean and spacious. From airport to hotel takes abt 30mins.- 19/12/2009, Ms. Goh Poh Khim, Joanne

The Thang Long hotel was very pleasant, clean and comfortable. The booking service was a nightmare.- 06/03/2009, Ms. Dee Standley

The hotel is very well located. Very central and we could rent a motorbike from the hotel so that we did not have to worry about the parking or the fact to hand in the bike late at night. Big negative point is that staff is friendly but never tries to help you. They just stick at the hotel policy. For instance, we arrive quite early in the morning (4.30am). No room was available but the VIP room, 63$. They didnot try to find us any alternative but paying the all fees (just for 5h sleep). We tried to bargain half the price but no. So we had to find another hotel just for hald a day at 5am! If i had the choice, next time, I think I'll choose a hotel next to Ben Thanh market as there are more activities there and it is much cheaper. Also, staff in the hotel do not speak very well english.- 25/08/2008, Mr. Dai Hoa UONG

Welcome was offhand. At the end they double charged us for drinks from the bar fridge. We asked them to make a phone call for us because a tour bus had not come to collect us. Male did not ring and lied to us and said that he had.- 20/01/2010, Mr. Robert Horne

Very friendly and helpful staff. Some spoke better English than others. Opened restaurant 30 minutes early for me one day because I was leaving on an early tour. Continuous problems with the internet which was in a very dark room.- 07/11/2009, Mr. Charles Cahn

The accommodation we were shown to appeared tp be put together from items taken from a jumble sale.AS the actual person who runs the hotel was not availble, we had to deal through tour company inoviet.Had emailed hotel requesting lower floor and was gauranteed it on arrival, the tour company has its office below hotel and was handling all check ins. We were taken to a horrible room up many flights of stairs in a very hot and dirty stair way.Would not accept this and after stating this to tour company after 1 hour we were taken to a different hotel.- 16/08/2009, Mrs. patricia WILSON

Value for money although it can get a little noisy as the airwell magnifies the noise from the lobby. For such a low price with breakfast, what else can u ask for other than a clean bed and bath?- 08/08/2009, Ms. Wen Dee Kee
