“Best location, huge rooms!!!”
We were sorry we only had two nights at this lovely hotel, which is infused with such historical memories.The rooms were spacious and lovely, service was great and the location is hard to beat. District 1 is the only place to stay in and if you decide to have dinner at the restaurant in the Hotel, the view onto the eluminated Opera House is wonderful. Everything is within walking distance and a drink at the roof-top terrace at the nearby REX Hotel is a must.
“Great Location; Great Service”
We picked this hotel because of its central location and historic significance. Although it's not the most "modern" hotel on the block, it won us over with its charm.
“Excellent hotel. Courteous and helpful staff. Breakfast is not to be missed”
I have stayed at the Continental Hotel on several occasions over the past 10 years. It is excellent. Historic ambience, but with wonderfully spacious rooms fitted with modern conveniences. View of the Square and motos in traffic is priceless. Reasonably priced, and includes the best breakfast in SaiGon. Highly recommend. Can't wait to go back.
“Elegant, clean & friendly”
We stayed here Jan 10-13th. The only problem we had was that we did not book enough nights and had to move hotels. The staff was great, the breakfast second to none. Lots of fresh fruit which is grown locally.We loved it and wish everyone would be so lucky to be able to stay at a great place such as this.
“Can't wait to go back.”
Great hotel and great flight with Korean Air lines. I will go next year to vietnam and use the same airline and same hotel. The hotel was built in 1886 and it has a lot of history for us from France. If you have seen the movie " Indochine" you recognize a lot of places and roms in this hotel. Great history and I am glad this hotel is still there.
“Great Saigon Hotel!”
Loved this hotel.... Great location, French colonial character, large rooms, breakfast included with lots of variety of foods, friendly staff. We booked our tours through the hotel and had wonderful time with English speaking driver and guide. Since there were four of us we had a confortable air conditioned car all to ourselves. We also booked the dinner cruise on the Saigon River and thoroughly enjoyed it. We took our grandchildren - 9 & 7 and they loved the whole experience! No problems or complaits about our choice of hotels.....
“Continental HCMC”
Stayed 5 nights over including NYE, wonderful location to participate in the celebrations.
“Emerse yourself in Saigon's history”
This is a great hotel on so many levels. We stayed in a new Oriental Suite that was modern but still retained the charm of a 1880s hotel. The room was generous in size, bathroom was large and the bed comfortable. I was impressed by how the hotel has maintained many of the original features such as open corridors. The location of the hotel is perfect, there is a department store next door and the main markets and shopping areas are within 5 minutes walking. The hotel is located in the historic area, opposite the Opera House. The hotel does not have a swimming pool or gym, but if you are looking for this go next door to the Hyatt Hotel and pay three times the price for less character. I was thinking about the different people that must have passed through the doors of the Continental Hotel and that somehow you become a part of the city's rich history when you stay there. Brakfast buffet was OK, but the staff are too eager to remove your plate and do not offer tea or coffee service. The hotel is a wedding reception hotspot, infact the whole area is a wedding reception hotspot. Thankfully, these weddings don't go for very long and didn't impact on our sleep. The lobby can be a little crowded however when wedding guests are arriving.
“Pricey for what you get!”
Hotel location was great and staff were pleasant, rooms were huge but the decor, especially the bathrooms were in need of an update. The breakfast courtyard is pretty, there were a lot of food to select from at the breakfast buffet but the quality of food was a bit poor. There were a lot of wedding receptions going on at the hotel but it was fine as they normally start around 6pm and finish by 9pm. I would recommend this hotel only for the reasons that it is an historical hotel, if you are into nostalgia, this is a place to stay. If the hotel got a full renovation, it has the potention to be a glorious 5 star as it contained many old features. That's why it is a 3 star now but you pay 4/5 star prices!
“Go, but know what to expect”
Grand old Hotel in a prime location. Quality of rooms/bathrooms no longer up to 21st century expectations for a 4 star hotel. Service was curteous but inattentive and without initiative.Attendants needed to be told what was required of them. Quality of breakfast was so so. When certain food items were depleted, they were not replenished.
