Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
If you want to travel to Dong Ha and Quang Tri, this is the place to stay. The hotel is beautiful, along with the view of the river and the city. It is close to highland villages and the spectacular scenery - some of the best in Vietnam. And the price is quite reasonable for the quality hotel this is! We highly recommend the Sai Gon Don Ha Hotel.

Immediately upon my arrival, staff were able to phone an excellent English speaking tour guide, who conducted private tours up HWY 9 to Khe Sanh and then to the DMZ, Reunification Bridge and Vingh Moc tunnels. The room was large and the breakfast great at the hotel.

The hotel was firs time opened in 2012 after a few year of interruption. Apparently, SaiGon-DongHa is the well constructed hotel in town and could be seen as the first 4 stars hotel in town. Rooms are new and services are in process. The hotel is located at Hieu river's bank and steps to Dong Ha local market. Hopefully, you can enjoy your staying in this small town

The lobby is beautiful, and that’s to make you think the rooms may be similar. Not even close. I saw a previous review that said the rooms are clean and beautiful. I don’t know what room they stayed in but we looked at a few trying to find one with hot water. They were all the same. Carpets were filthy, bathrooms were moldy around the tub. Walls were dirty. The fancy decor spread on the bed in our first room had a big stain on it. The staff tried telling us there was hot water, but it was warm at best. This hotel complex comes across as a high class resort but it has obviously not seen any money put into it for a long time. Breakfast was terrible - everything in the warming trays were ice cold. The only good thing was dinner. We had to eat there because there was nothing else open due to New Year’s. Food was very good but the wait was painfully long. Also, the place was almost totally empty. Both nights we were the only ones in the dining room. Very odd.

I went to the Dong Ha Saigon Hotel to get a legitimate (professional) massage, and at first they showed my wife the price list (she is Vietnamese) in Vietnamese, but they they noticed me (white guy) and then quickly switched it to an English language price list - but I quickly noticed that the prices were double! Not cool! I understand when they do this at cultural sites, like museums, so that local people can have fair access to their cultural heritage - but this is not acceptable at a massage place in a tiny little city with very view tourists. We quickly left without using their services. I suggest going elsewhere, where you are treated in a more respectful manner. We found a nice massage shop elsewhere in town and were charged normal rates (and had great service). Don't support this behavior and hopefully that will bring it to an end.

We stayed here for a night in order to more easily access Khe San etc. the following day. As we were not expecting much, and had paid comparatively little for room and breakfast, we were not disappointed. The whole hotel had an air of shabbiness and neglect, and the main dining room needed a thorough cleaning. The staff spoke minimal English and the service was also minimal. We lunched at the hotel, having been advised the 'local' food may not be safe, and although we were the only guests apart from a small business group, we waited over 20 mins for 2 serves of spring rolls, which we had to take away as we were then late for our guide. The breakfast was pretty much inedible.What was very amusing was the unfinished, derelict pool and non existent tennis court as described in the hotel brochure. However, as I said, it was only for one night, we survived and won't be returning.

This hotel seems to be a representation of the city itself. It appears that some time ago, maybe 10 or so years, there was a big push to drive tourism into the town that didn't quite pan out. On a drive to Vinh Moc we drove by several spots near the beach where resorts had been constructed but then abandoned, no one seems to visit the museums, and i think maybe half a dozen other people were staying in this 7 story hotel. They clearly overshot their epectations on tourism when they built this hotel- there's a dedicated counter that was clearly envisioned to be dedicated to booking tours for tourists, but now sits empty, same for the "gift shop" in the back. The lounge appears to have had no use for some time, there were signs for a pub restaurant that appeared to be shuttered, as well as what looked like an outdoor restaurant that never saw a soul. It seems that in order to generate revenue the hotel sells day passes for local children to use the pool, though unfortunately that makes it basically impossible to go for a relaxing swim in the afternoon as it is overrun with children. I was here for my honeymoon and they actually did a BEAUTIFUL spread on the bed with decorations of real flowers, folded towels into a heart, a few snacks, and breakfast passes for the next day. This was very thoughtful and the highlight of our stay. Again in order to save money they do not air condition the main lobby nor the hallways so the room was the only real respite from the heat and while nicely designed is getting work, i.e. wallpaper starting to peel, and this being vietnam construction standards are't quite so high- the sliding closet door didn't quite activate the switch to turn off the light inside the closet due to improper alignment so I just took out the bulb. Never used the spa because I'd be sweating like crazy before I even made it there. Bathroom had hot to warm water and seems to depend on the temperature outside. Our first two days it was scorching hot and so was the water with no way to adjust the temperature; it was super hot and that was the only temperature, adjusting the dial in the tub didn't affect it. On our last day it was considerably cooler and so was the water; didn't get nearly as warm, only slightly above lukewarm. The fitness center consists of two bikes, one treadmill, 4 dumbbells, and one of those multistation combination things. Probably the closest thing to a gym in the entire city tbh. Our breakfast in the main restuarant was.... fine. Nothing to write home about, not terrible. Our dinner in the same restaurant.... woof. First this area is either not air-conned or barely air-conned, thank god we asked them to set up a portable one right next to us or we wouldn't have even stayed. Our spring rolls were mediocre, but compared to the chicken (forget the name of the dish specifically) it was gourmet. Literally they put some salt and pepper on it and grilled it.... that's it. zero flavor lol. Seriously don't eat here, go to Tam's cafe instead. Staff doesn't speak the greatest english, sooooooo glad i had my vietnamese girlfriend with me. They also insisted on keeping my passport until i checked out and hell effing no, I'm not letting them do that so I insisted they just make a copy like a normal hotel. Seriously, I've been all over the world and not ONE place has ever asked to keep my passport. I used to work as a lifeguard and swim instructor so I know what pools should look like- the pool was always kinda murky. I know in previous responses the hotel said it was due to rain and while rain can cause this issue I saw it when it hadn't rained for days so that's definitely not it. Either the plumbing wasn't adequately built or they just don't know how to manage it. Whoo! Longest review I've ever written. Ok, so after alllllll that, do I recommend the hotel? Actually yes. Wait, what? Yes. It's still probably the best hotel in Hue tbh. While there is another hotel on the same caliber as this one you can read horror story after horror story there. At least here I always had warm to hot water and no blood on my sheets! So yeah, temper your expectations, but if you're here to see the Vinh Moc tunnels this is probably your best bet.

We were on a tour and stayed at this hotel. It is a well worn hotel. The staff were very good and accommodating. The hotel is very nice. The rooms were spacious and the air conditioning worked will. However, they were having some mechanical problems, the electrical power was intermittent and there was no hot water for showers. We were so hot from our excursions to Khe Sahn it was refreshing to cool off.

This was not what we expected - our first 4 star hotel for this holiday and although very new and contemporary it had no soul or atmosphere - not for the tourist but fine for the commercial traveller. Dong Ha is an export hub for goods from neighbouring Asian states destined for overseas so it is understandable the hotel's focus is on the business clientele. Food and wine choices were very limited, the dining experience was our most bland so far and happy we were only there for a one-night stopover for the Vinh Moc tunnels and DMZ area. But it was very reasonably priced and value for money for the quality of the room, which was large, comfortable bed and the cleanliness excellent.
