This was the hardest city to select a hotel as they are either high end or backpacker hostels. Compared to some of the other comparably priced hotels we stayed in in Vietnam, this had to be the most boring of all the properties. However, it was centrally located, easy walking distance to all the sites and the breakfast was okay.... more

stayed at vien dong with a group last month. it was not a spectacular hotel, as it is located in the backpackers' district. was given a rather dull room at the back (partly my agent's fault, i guess. but that's another story). it was big enough and clean. very efficient housekeeping and helpful hotel staff. most of the staff were... more

This hotel rates above the typical US 3-Star property. We arrived after the usual 30 hours of traveling from the US. The hotel was convenient to both the airport and the city – a real plus after traveling for so long. Check-in was quick, the beds were comfortable, the room was very clean, and it was complete with western amenities.... more

Breakfast buffet is good. Easy to get a taxi / cyclo to everywhere. And cyclo bar is just around the corner. A couple of... more

There was a little mix up with our reservation, we were given a twin beds room instead of the matrimonial bed we requested. So my husband and I have to join the twin bed together for one night and we were transferred a our room of choice the following day. Room was clean, but the shower head above the tub... more
