The judges are in - Sheraton v Caravelle HCMC

4.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 27 Sept 2014
I stayed overnight at the Sheraton recently due to the refurbishment being undertaken at my regular hotel, the Caravelle. The rooms at Sheraton were comfortable but more expensive. Disappointed that room wifi was very expensive which I think is quite unnecessary in Vietnam. The staff were very friendly and professional. The breakfast was very good but the dining room not big enough for all residents so I had to sit outside which was OK, but hot. The air conditioning may not have been working too well. The gym was well equipped and the pool was terrific. It is a nice hotel and well located but for an overall experience, I much prefer the Caravelle - particularly with their signature lounge. Caravelle beds are definitely more comfortable and the dining room large enough to accommodate all. The Caravelle buffet is also - I think - better. I would however continue to use either the Sheraton or Majestic if Caravelle wasn't available. Hope this helps

Dear Chris M,

Thank you for staying with us and sharing your valuable comments.

It concerns us greatly that you have left our shores with a negative impression of our hotel due to the Wi-Fi connection.

If this was not explained to you while you were here, please accept our sincere apologies. We also have noted your comment about the dining room and the air conditioning issue. Whilst we strive to deliver operational excellence, we are disappointed that on this occasion we failed in our delivery.

Rest assured I have raised this issue with our Engineering team as well as the Management team and we will continue to address them through our ongoing quality maintenance and improvement programs.

Just returned from a 4 night stay. Great location in District 1 and easy to access everything.

Comfy and clean room, though slightly dated - especially the outdoor pool area. Nice staff, beautiful grand foyer and many services available.

Breakfasts were amazing, with more choices than I have ever seen - something for everyone. Other meals and drinks were expensive for Vietnam.

I would be highly likely to choose this hotel again if I visited HCMC.

We are currently staying at Sheraton.
The service was great. The hotel was within walking distance of most places.
The breakfast here is amazing.
The staff at Mojos (the cafe attached to Sheraton) are very friendly and the food there is excellent.
I will return on our next visit

This Sheraton is perfectly located but unmemorable by comparison to other hotels I have been lucky enough to stay in Saigon. It is the usual big brand hotel and as a result with its vast size can feel like it is just a place to get some sleep whilst on business. The service is good, however the restaurant is not very relaxing because of its size so if you are looking for a relaxing meal after a long day at the office you probably won't find it here. If I am looking forward to getting back to a hotel after work, I know it has captured me and I did not get that feeling with this Sheraton.
