The building was old but the room was clean.

One the A/C’s in our large room didn’t work (no remote??) Breakfast was very disappointing. And the bed was really hard (personal preference only)

Convenient location close to all District 1 attractions. Great size room with a comfy lounge. Bathroom was good size and shower didn’t make whole floor wet. Staff were friendly but didn’t speak great English. Cafe attached to the hotel made pretty good cappuccinos!!

Breakfast was average

The room was very large.

Breakfast was average, they stopped refilling some dishes before breakfast time was over. Rooms are fairly rustic in nature and therefore not modern - but fine if you don't mind that sort of thing. WiFi connection was not reliable. The hotel is next to a noisy school, which is only a problem if you like to sleep in. The sheer value of the place and its location makes it all worth it imo.

Great value for money, upgraded to a large room for free. Good service, very spacious and great location.

Breakfast did not really start at 6:30 but that was not that big a deal. They were there setting up so you could still eat.

I was immediately given an upgraded room which probably was close to 400 square feet! More than I needed this place could sleep four people easily. The breakfast was good. They were a little slow at having it ready at the advertised time they said was 6:30. But it did not take long for them to be on top of it and you could order your eggs in the meantime while they were still setting up the breakfast. I would give the breakfast a solid 7 out of 10. The staff was super nice.

No follow through on recommended things to do, checking if needed help for this as new to country. Shower needs upgrading.

Liked the location, welcoming and great recommendations of possible things to do. Good size spacious room. Loved the nearby gardens and close to finding things to explore yet quiet location. Safe for lone traveller' and great breakfast!!

The Homestead is a great location to explore Ho Chi Min city, especially with the cheap taxi or GRAB bike app available to whistle up a ride at short notice. Friendly and helpful reception staff were very quick to try to sort out problems. We were upgraded to a larger room which was nice, but experienced a few minor problems initially that staff were quick to help with. However, there was a problem with the water pressure in the building and we were without hot water for a day and a half. Breakfast was a bit chaotic for the first couple of days with some communication difficulties and staffing problems, but in fairness, the management got a grip and this improved markedly and did not spoil our stay. Tea, coffee and a fridge/freezer with daily complimentary bottled water made it a pleasant few days in the city. A warning to anyone visiting HCM city for the first time is to expect swarms of small motor scooters riding in all directions, including on the pavements at rush hour, which will involve a keen awareness when negotiating the traffic, but Vietnam is an amazing country and well worth spending some time exploring...

There was an awful smell coming from the bathroom (drain?🤔) which was really unpleasant. It settled after about 4 days, but was still there occasionally. We stayed leading up to Tet so that may have impacted on available services to properly fix the problem.

The hotel was in a good location and the staff were lovely. The room we had was huge! The breakfast provided a very good variety of options and was a great start to the day.

Breakfast second day was not so good. They didn't seem to have enough staff and there was limited choice and long wait times.

Spacious room, good facilities including decent aircon and helpful staff. Breakfast first day had a good choice and the service was good.

Apartment was very bare. Did not provide cutlery or tableware. Sofa was a little dirty. Elevator and hallway was dripping water (almost slipped over)

Quiet location. Close to district 1 center

Stayed in February 2024

Sofas were not very clean and no cushions which were needed. No hangars but these were supplied when asked for though. Breakfasts for Europeans were very mediocre and experience not great.

Very large studio room with screen separating bedroom. A/C units in both areas which was essential. Bed comfortable and reception staff helpful.

1. There were problems with locking apartment entrance doors and vestibule door. The receptionist gave us electronic keys, that didn't open the apartment doors. After my complaint, the keys were re-programmed. But we found out that there were no keys to the vestibule door. After my request, the receptionist brought a standard key but I couldn't lock the door with it. 2. Breakfast could be better. There was no buffet, meals shall be ordered from the menu and the choice was poor.

I expected a single apartment with 2 bedrooms, but in reality, that was 2 separate apartments with separate entrance doors, each suitable for a family. Our daughter occupied the larger apartment and was very happy to stay there alone :-)

The water was not hot as expected and they can do better with the breakfast.

The staff were great and ready to help with information and whatever else we required. The place is clean with ample of room and bathroom. It is easy to get around the main places like the market and war memorial.

The property is nice and clean. It locates in the middle of District 1, so everything is convenience. The room is good looking, clean.

Room 101 had a leaky shower tub and the electronic door locks had a persistent problem throughout our 3 night stay. The service at the restaurant needs some massive improvement as on all 3 days we had to wait for a long time for the buffet items to be replenished.

We stayed in a 2 bed apartment which were very spacious.

The room I had reserved was not available when I arrived. Staff promoted an upgrade which I did not like. I wasted time the next day waiting to get the type of room I had reserved. Breakfast was adequate but there was only a very small buffet section and only a very small amount of fruit was ever available. Set breakfasts could be ordered. Coffee was lukewarm at best. I stayed at 5 other less expensive hotels in Vietnam and had much better breakfast experiences. The free bottled water provided in the room is in typical disposable plastic bottles with the hotel's name on it. Staff said the bottles get recycled which I am doubtful can be done in a sanitary manner for a disposable bottle. The lids on the bottles did not have the typical commercial tight seal that has to have some force to be broken to open the bottle.

The location was quiet and was good for walking to several tourist sites and the market. The room was spacious.

Overall cleaning wasn’t too bad, just the floor was very dirty. Breakfast can definitely be improved, but the paid caramel cappuccino was delicious.

Location is good. It is a walking distance from a nice area. The biggest pro of this hotel is that you can’t hear the traffic at all. Room is spacious.
