My review for this hotel is long overdue, and it's more unforgivable given that this hotel is one of the highlights of our Saigon trip. I actually wrote about it in my blog entry: http://jennestrada.livejournal.com/3714.html Homey feel. Check. Spacious, clean room. Check. Comfortable bed. Check. Efficient staff. Check. Value for money. Check.

The taxi from the airport stopped across the street from the alley where Luan Vu is located and, at first, I must admit, I was a little worried. However, after checking in, those worries very quickly disappeared! My room was on the 2nd floor and despite not having a window, it was not stuffy and didn't smell musty. It was... More

We booked this after reading the reviews on trip adviser, which, on the most part are pretty accurate. The staff were very helpful and very friendly. We even stayed again on our return to Saigon after heading to the Mekong. The room was just roomy enough and although it didn't have a window, was very comfortable, not stuffy or smelly,... More

Staff were very kind and friendly. No curfew, but little bit felt sorry when I come back midnight because one of staff sleeps at lobby and unlocks the entrance door. Whenever I asked questions, they answered with good smile. Exchange US$ to VND was available at the lobby. Only one thing was little bit (just a little bit) noisy because... More

Great location as it is walking distance from bars, restos and Ben Thanh Market. Staff were very friendly and accommodating. My only wish is that they change the breakfast every now and then :)
