“Ma Maison is the best-run hotel we have ever stayed in. Ha, the owner, managed five star hotels and was a professor of hotel management, as well as the German translator for the Prime Minister of Vietnam. Ma Maison has been his family home since 1957. Up a colorful alley in District 3, the hotel is one of the few boutique properties you can still stay in—and you should. It’s quiet, comfortable and the breakfast is superb. Ha is a gracious, masterful host, and his wife, Natasha, is friendly and always there to assist you in getting around town. Bonus: photographic masterpieces, created by Natasha’s father, a world-famous photographer, adorn the walls. From the jasmine-scented courtyard to the old world French charm of the rooms and the gracious owners and staff, you will love this place. We give it five stars.”

“Long and Ha where delightful hosts. So very very helpful and pleasant. Long overheard me asking her husband where I could buy sunscreen. Knowing I was in a hurry to get going, Long gave me a bottle. Above and beyond! The breakfast was excellent. The location is definitely not central to the most touristy areas, but in the heart of the “real” Saigon. I liked it.”

“We could not have asked for a better place to stay for our first trip to HCMC. The owners and staff were generous, thoughtful, interesting, and lovely to talk to. The location is great - it's easy to get to District 1 and after visiting District 1, I'm so glad we stayed here instead and away from the big box hotels. I loved walking through the alley where the hotel is located and seeing some of the neighborhood, and there's great street food all around. And the Vietnamese breakfast was amazing, a family recipe, and shouldn't be missed. A very special, unique place to stay.”

“Charming building with the nice elegant room decoration, quiet space and friendly staff and owner”

“We only stayed at Ma Maison for one night (between flights at HCMC airport) but our experience was amazing. The staff was so accommodating with our late arrival; we were greeted with refreshing juice, showed somewhere to eat a late dinner and they got up early to call a taxi for us and help carry our bags out. (They also packed a small breakfast to take with us which just went above and beyond!) Our room was amazing - the most comfortable place we stayed on our whole trip around Vietnam. Previously we had stayed in the city center and this was a nice change of pace; it was so much quieter at night but has a street close by with plenty of places to eat. I highly recommend staying here!”

“The owner was very professional and even gave my wife flowers and a cake on her birthday. I did not expect this and it was a good touch.”

“It’s a fantastic place in an interesting neighborhood and run by lovely and highly professional people.”

“The hotel was immaculately clean and had great furnishings and design touches to make you feel like you were in a much more expensive place. The area was closer to the airport than downtown but that turned out to be great because we saw how Saigoners live.”

“All staff friendly and helpful. In district 3 in an alley off the old main road into town so good contrast and different feel to district 1. The pho for breakfast was excellent so do have it!”

“The owners are very kind and hospitable. The rooms were roomy, stylish and very comfortable and spotlessly clean. The breakfasts were great with a choice of Vietnamese or Western. The location is great because it is a little outside the main tourist area but still easily accessible to District 1 where all the major sights are located and the owners or staff will help you to get a Cab or Grab which is like an Uber. Both are very cheap. I would highly recommend Ma Maison. It was a perfect stay - a quiet and stylish boutique hotel in a vibrant but crazy busy city!”
