Staff is super friendly and helpful.
Need to get top floor remodel finished. On previous stay i enjoyed many rooftop b-fast.
Please don't use first floor stairway as storage for construction materials - unsafe during an evacuation.
would stay again.

Exremely convenient for younger travelers

I have stayed here many times and enjoyed the hotel. It is located right on Bui Vien street in the heart of backpacker area. Restaurants, clubs, bars, shops, Circle K are just outside the hotel, so it is extremely convenient. The beds are comfortable and that is important to me as cleanliness and modern styling, and most importantly not very expensive.
Because it is surrounded by clubs, it is rather noisy at night with music blasting from the club across the street and the club next door. If you are a light sleeper, then this hotel is not for you. For me it is the same as having the radio on while I sleep so it did not bother me. The breakfast was ok, only few selections, and not a buffet.
The only downside is that there is currently construction going on to renovate the hotel and they start work at 8:00am. Hopefully they will finish soon.

The hotel was under full renovation whereby the entrance was block by scaffolding and it was very dangerous to go into the lobby. The lobby was torn out with full renovation and materials were everywhere.
Should not have accepted guests as I feel it was dangerous for them to move in and out of the hotel.

Staff should check the room prior to checkout so the bill of water or food should be from previous person not billed to the next.
Although they were very helpful in fixing the tv and AC

Disappointed

Initially we were incorrectly put into a smoking room which smelt very strong and no windows.. Felt like shoe box, we requested to change, they come and inspected first and agreed that the room smelt. after changing the room we were put in the front where the night clubs are and the windows were ajar not sound proof so it was like being in the nightclub.. Couldn't change rooms again, lucky we had earplugs.. Too expensive for what it was, stuff not friendly.. Wouldn't go back.

Ant gonna stay here again .

Ants in my pants, ants in my coffee, ants in the bed. Literally everywhere there were ants. When I asked about switching they had nothing available. The hotel is in the middle of everything which is great unless you want to sleep. You can feel and hear the clubs and bars next door. We lost power twice in one night. Wifi was spotty at best.

Lively area, great shower, okay room, breakfast ??

One of the busiest street for tourist, night life here is really live.
About the hotel, great shower stand, love it!
AC in our room is in question, when you leave it turn off, then you come back to a HOT room, no way to leave it on. The AC took almost all night to cool the room down. Here is the trick, we left the key in the room to have AC on, then tell the front desk to open the door when we come back.
Room is bit small compare to other hotels in the neighbor area, but not to cramp.
Breakfast need to upgrade something more than 4 items on menu.
Might stay again, probably my 3rd option if the other 2 are out.

A cheaper alternative

We managed to book a day on the 7th floor but we didnt like it and was shifted to 3rd floor.
The rooms at the 3rd floor is much better than the 7th floor with window view that is very noisy.

Hotel by Nightclub, Staff not interested but clean

The hotel itself is in good condition, clean and tidy.

The service at the hotel was very poor and the staff not interested in engaging with you, it appears either their English is poor they cant be bothered to listen to you.

The hotel is located literally over a loud nightclub/bar, which is pretty noisy if you are on of the front bedrooms. Unless you are looking to go out partying every night I would not recommend this hotel.

Good location but very noisy at night from many local restaurants and bars even though our room had no window. Room itself was quite good. Bed was a bit hard for me. Breakfast on the rooftop was good, coffee was amazing. Some of the desk staff did not speak much English but they tried to help. Be aware that minibar charges have to be paid in cash.

clean new hotel in the middle of Bui Vien st actio

Good hotel smack bang in the middle of Bui Vien which seems to be the major bar and restaurant street in saigon
Friendly and helpful staff. Breakfast ok. Good wifi throughout.
Clean room. Nice bathroom. The hotel has obviously been renovated recently.
Bui vien does have a lot of bars and restaurants but also a lot of working girls in this area. Aside from that it's a great location. Walking distance to Ben than market (or numerous taxis on bui vien st day and night), walking distance just to the independence palace and war museum also.
Staff also helped me book my onward flight online through a Vietnamese website - the girl working during the daytime on reception is really very helpful and good English. Overall a very comfortable stay

Good hotel. Great staff. BUT .... the noise from the nearby nightclub is head-numbing. Goes till 5am. It's a trade-off from being in the heart of backpacker territory I suppose.

Fantastic location in Zone 1. Clean and tidy budget hotel.

Close to many good resteraunts and bars.
Well in fact too close to some bars that are open till 4am. If you like to sleep in a nice quiet environment this is not the place to be. The noise traveled through the block from the bar next door but one. Pounding music till 4 - 5 am some mornings.

Great place. Very modern and friendly staff.

We had a very enjoyable stay at the Aston hotel. It is only a year old so everything is modern and clean. The staff were very friendly and helpful. It's in a great location. We walked to the palace and war museum. Loads of pubs and clubs near by which is the one negative. The club next door has music until 4am and we could hear it from our room. Other rooms may be different.. Didn't bother us to much.

Convenient location for backpackers

Hotel is located on Bui Vien St., which is in the central backpacker area in HCMC. Around the hotel, there are many travel agencies, and foreign exchange locations. We booked our tour and bus to Cambodia nearby, very convenient. The hotel staff is generally helpful, i.e. helped us book the water puppet show, lend us umbrella, etc. The only thing is there also a lot of pubs and bars, so it's a bit noisy at night. If you are light sleeper, might want to reconsider. But if you want the location, all the hotels in that area are effected by the noise, just deal with it.

Would have received better service with the price.

When I arrived the hotel name is amazingly turned to \"Valentine Hotel\". The room is tidy and clean. But you can't escape the noise from neighbouring bars which keeps beating until 5 in the morning I believe. Location is good. Near bus station and in the popular District 1.

ホーチミンに慣れている人には安くて使い勝手良いホテル

リーズナブルなホーチミンのホテル。周囲も店が多く、観光脚以外のローカルの人たちが集まる場所でもあるので、ホーチミン慣れしている人には最適です。ただ、若者と欧米観光客が多いので、日本人は委縮するかも。
価格が安いので、設備や備品は求めないのは当然なので、エアコンとシャワーと金庫が使えて安全ならばコスパ高いと思える人におすすめ。

데탐거리 주변에 위치하고 있어 매우 시끄럽기는 하나, 호텔에 창문이 없어서인지 객실 내부는 신경쓰일만큼 시끄럽지 않았습니다. 화장실도 깨끗한 편이고, 조식도 나쁘지 않았습니다. 주변에 마사지 받을 수 있는 곳과, 먹을 곳이 많아 편리하였고, 이동하기에도 좋았습니다.

Jag tycker hotellet var jättebra och rent och fint! De enda negativa var att man fick röka inne på hotellet, alltså även på rummet! De kunde ibland lukta in från andra rum, vilket jag tyckte var negativt.
