I stayed at Orient Hotel for 2 nights in Feb. 2011. I also stayed at this same hotel for a week in Mar. 2005 (6 years ago!), and nothing had changed with management and service -- generally, a positive. The hotel is located in Pham Ngu Lao in an extremely convenient location. The room rate is on the high side... More

I felt like I stepped into 1960's Vietnam when I came into this place. For me this was a good thing. It's to experience once in your life and never again. The outside of the hotel is very nice looking, but the room is quite dated. I immediately noticed a mosquito stench which some incense cleared up. As for the... More

We chose this hotel as in LP's SE Asia on a shoestring guide. They wanted to charge us $20, though we got it down to $17. We were given key to room, only to find that room was not ready. Sheets dirty and used bottles of water on the side. We waited for room to be cleaned. I was felling... More

Booked this hotel months before, and reconfirmed 3 times. They did not have the correct rooms when we arrived. the rooms were musty and not nice at all. Having stayed in HCMC before these were very overpriced for what they were

We had booked a room for four people for 4 nights on the internet at USD 40/ night. We were offered a first floor room with two queen size beds - no soap in the bathroom and no toilet paper either. The room was tiny so we placed one of our bags on top of the closet - there was... More

US$25 per night including breakfast for a room with a window. Make sure you ask for a quiet room at the back of the Hotel as the traffic starts at about 3am. Walk to Ben thanh markets, Museum and coffe shops for time out. Nothing flash but well worth the money.

I stayed at the Orient for 2 nights. I paid $25USD for a room with a private bath. The room is basic, no frills, but it was clean and the shower was hot. The location is right in the heart of the Pham Ngu Lau area. Centrally loacated near plenty of tour operators, cafes, bars, restaurants and a 5 minute... More

A great value for money hotel in a fantastic location right in the heart of the backpacker area. The rooms are basic but very clean but at about $20 USD per night, greats ized rooms with everything you need. Can be a bit noisy at times but you step out your door and everyhing you need is at your fingertips

A group of us stayed at this hotel for a month. It was basic but clean with air conditioning and hot showers. The staff at the front desk were extremely nice and helpful. I left my laptop, cash, and passport in their care when I left to go traveling over the weekends and everything stayed safe. Overall I would recommend... More
