La Vela Saigon Hotel
Excellent place to stay, pool is one of the best along with Gym! Staff is extremely friendly. Breakfast buffet is superb. All in all a great place to stay. You just gotta bear over the lifts they are really slow!

Everything was excellent, but the cleanliness and amenities need to be more careful. There was one day I did not get the essential amenities in my room. Thank you.

GRAND HOTEL du LAC Boutique Saigon
We found the room to be much smaller than the images suggested, when we entered the room the towels were in a basket on the bed, which I thought a little odd, however, when we got in the bathroom, we discovered why, there was nowhere to store anything.

Stay in the legacy part of hotel. The new add on wings are still French colonial architecture, but it feels out of touch with the main building
