    The bathroom is old. And the water is weak. Breakfast not so many choices.

    Locatuon is excellent. Room is clean and comfortable. The rooftop bar with a incredible view of Saigon River.

    Even this hotel is old, but should replace some new carpets and make furniture more clean. And that make this hotel as old school, but cozy. Pls try to improve this.

    Classic hotel at the riverside , offering good value for your money

    Breakfast is allright but not much variety, same choice every day. There's a restaurant at top level with a great view but the offer is rather disappointing. I was served a different dish from my order and ended up in a long discussion with the waiter.

    It's a classic style hotel at a very central location in district 1. I got a spacious room at the city side. Not much of a view, but it was quiet and cost effective. Beds are comfortable and it's clean. Friendly reception, all good.

    Enjoyed our stay in this historic hotel
    • Leisure trip
    • Couple
    • Deluxe Double or Twin Room with River View
    • Stayed 5 nights

    The bathtub-shower was slippery and it would be good for the hotel to invest in some rubber shower mats and maybe even grab bars. Also, in the way of grand old hotels, there is a sitting area with large windows and a service desk as you walk out of the elevator on to the 2nd floor: Some guests use this space as a smoking area, which isn't a good idea.

    My husband & I stayed in Room 203 at the Riverside Hotel Saigon for 5 nights in mid-March 2024. Excellent location for us, as this classic hotel is within walking distance of the sites we wanted to see in Ho Chi Minh City. The hotel was built in the late 1880s by a French shipping company & has been maintained. Know that if you’re looking for shiny, with a lot of bells & whistles, this isn’t your place. This is a pleasant, old-world, heritage building that is a bit on the worn, dated-side of things. But, it is clean and has a grand historic ambiance. Our room faced front, toward the river. It was a very large, clean room with 2 large beds, polished wood flooring, 2 comfortable chairs & a table, desk & chair, refrigerator, safety deposit box, closet & shelves. Very good, firm, mattresses with clean, comfortable duvet. Tidied up daily: fresh towels, trash removed, 2 bottles of water left. There is a busy street that runs between the hotel and the river. We could hear street noise but it was not loud enough to bother us. A very well done breakfast: Their breakfast room is in the building just next door. There was plenty of space, except one day when the hotel was hosting a large travel group. Egg station, toast station, yogurt, a variety of fruit and Asian dishes that changed daily. Hotel and restaurant staff were very pleasant. I would recommend a travel agency (across the street from the Banh Than Market) over the one attached to the hotel: Vietnam Memory Travel. John: 0981-981-761. If we ever return to Ho Chi Minh City, we would be very pleased to stay here again.

    They put us in room 220, which is at the back side of the hotel. The room looks like a staff room, which I guess was originally served the purpose. It is very much a room of 1* hotel which is worth 300k/night not 960k a night.

    The road outside was horrendous to cross because the lights were not working. Hopefully they are fixed now.

    It was a perfect location for reaching from my ferry as very close to the river.

    Everything was fine

    Stayed 3 nights in a river view ‘suite’ over Lunar new year. The location is perfect with the walking area riverside walk cruises and cocktail bars within 100m. The staff are very courteous and work hard to keep hotel clean. Also a handy travel office which made some trips and a tricky overnight bus booking for us. Good breakfast choices too

    Terrible service on floor 4 took 40 minutes to bring 1 beer, and then when it came, it was a warm can. No excuse as it was only my table there, totally empty.

    Good view from roof and restaurant downstairs was OK.
