When leaving airport DO NOT get in a Blue (color ) cab...they will rip you off even with a meter . Next be sure you have the price straight ( written ) if taking a bike driver ,ect . coz you will say 40,000 Dong and they will say it was 400,000 ($20) when you get back and they may bluff a little nasty . Always go in the hotel and ask and they will straighten […] them out . Finally , when you go in a small shop off beaten path , make sure you agree that you are giving them 100,000dong coz they will pull the switch and say you gave them 10,000 dong coz they look alike . Then it is a problem , trust me . Also , the fee from airport to hotel should be about 20,000 ($10) and again I say if it is not right just go in hotel and tell them and let them talk to the driver . NO BLUE CABS . Uzziniet vairāk

Location is convenient, but the hotel is old. So both rooms I stayed in were big, clean but organized like in old 19th century European hotel without reconstruction. I guess it's the whole style of this hotel. Good external pictures of the building appear somewhat misleading to me. I paid extra for suite because the room I initially reserved was very […] dark with window looking somewhere inside in the back of building and inconveniently separated for bedroom and the other part with useless for me furniture and fancy bathroom. If you just come in to the lobby and go forward to the restaurant I guess you'll get the whole idea of this antuque-style hotel. Uzziniet vairāk

Location is the best. Breakfirst was very good with nice food. Staff was very polite and friendly. The room with river view was very clean and beautiful.

Very friendly staff and excellent location. I had a room without any daylight (no window) so felt a bit like a prison.

lame service and communication i would never stay there again cant cross the street no elevator confrence room right out side the door and they dont allow guests of any sort.

We had no complaints about the hotel. For the price we paid, you could not complain. Booked it on line and all was well when we got to the hotel, just remember to take your internet paper work with you. P>S. Vietnam is a very nice place to visit.

Don't believe the hotel pictures and descriptions. Some of the hotels photos pictured are retouched big time. Example, there is no water canal in front of the hotel. There is a very busy street with an industrial river across it. I booked for 3 nights but ended up checking out earlier due to the uncomfortable conditions.

Well there was an actual window but when you opened it the view that you saw was another corridor inside the hotel. Also the beds were incredibly hard and uncomfortable. It was a real disappointment. Having said that the buffet breakfast was really good. So an awful lot bad but not all bad

This is a good value hotel located on the Siagon river. I would not recommend for the elderly as the beautiful old staircase is the main way to travel up and down the floors, as the eleevator is very small and mainly used for luggage, but you can still use it if needed. Breakfast (buffet) was fine, nothing to flash but acceptable. I did eat in the hotel […] restaurant which was fine, however there are many cheaper / better places locally. I would highly recommed a place just around the corner caller 'Jaspers'. The staff were friendly with enough English to get bye. This hotel also has a tourist agency in the lobby, so you can book your trips in the hotel. Overall i would say this hotel is better suited to families, not singles looking to party. Uzziniet vairāk

As many other structures are historic, prior to french occupation dating back over 100 years, there is fine complimentary mix of the old and the new without constrast, and without a single style dominating the skyline it gives credit to what is old and nice and what is new, and exciting preserving what was envogue then and what is attractive now a good […] mix in other words where if you like the old fashion wood structures this is it!

Value for Money

The hotel quality really aligns with its prices. If you just expect a convenient place and normal quality, this is exactly your choice! However, I got 2 bad experience when I applied the local tours via the "Tourist Information Center" in the lobby. The fist one is to Mekong River, cost $25, picked up in hotel. However, when we return, the tutor guide […] just dropped us in the backpack park somewhere in the district 1, instead of my hotel. The guide said we didn't' pay for the the "Return to hotel" fare! What a ridiculous tutor package!! Package tour, the price is supposed to include "return to hotel". When we returned to hotel and asked the tourist information center lady, she said we need to pay $3 for each person to get back hotel. However, she never told us when we applied the tour! The 2nd trip to Cu Chi Tunnels. I paid $20 and made sure "get on" and "get off" in my hotel. The lady told me $20 included entrance fee already. However, the tour guide in the van (bad english + bad attitude) asked me to pay for the entrance fee. I told him $20 included that. He told me "I dont' know! No one told me! You should call the company to clarify! and then threw all this receipts to me to find out mine!". When the tutor returned, the tour guide again said "I don't know, No one told me I need to drop you in the hotel". The worst thing is the backpacker (sat next to me, stayed in backpacker hotel) told me, he just paid $9 for the same tutor, including the entrance fee!! What I can say is the tourist information center in Riverside made a high profit margin and the communication between the tourist information center in Riverside, the tour company and the tour guide is very poor!! I paid for enjoying my trip, I am not responsible for coordination, clarification and acceptance of the bad attitude of the tutor guide!! Uzziniet vairāk

Don't confuse the Riverside Saigon with its neighbor, the Renaissance Riverside, a newer Marriott hotel. The real Riverside is far better. We had a spacious room overlooking the busy river and busy street below but when the double windows were closed the noise wasn't noticeable. Staff could not have been friendlier and more helpful and the included […] breakfast buffet was great with lots of variety. The hotel still retains the look and feel of an elegant hotel, albeit from from a bygone era. Carved wood and beautiful lighting fixtures are everywhere. There are enough modern amenities to make this a very comfortable hotel choice (flat screen TVs, free WiFi access in the rooms, large bathrooms, comfortable beds). Overall a very good value.

Walking distance around 10 mins to old post office & church

great location, older hotel but we were happy with overall service. Good as first hotel in Saigon to get feet on the ground

Old hotel by river with some charm. Reminds me of the Peace Hotel in Shanghai in the 1980s. Needs an update but then it would be more expensive. Arrived at night and didn't realize room had no exterior window--just a weird small window to the floor of an interior hallway. So no daylight to wake me up and when the requested wakeup call never came, I […] almost missed my bus connection to the beach. Don't confuse this with the more expensive Riverside Hotel which is nearby. Uzziniet vairāk

This hotel is clean and straight forward, and has the charm of past glory. A good price / performance buy.

Hotel is ideally located in the Dist 1 from visiters point of veiw.Halal food resurants and Masjid is 4 minutes walk from the hotel(next to Sheraton hotel). Staff is friendly, breakfast ok shef is quite happy to make egg omlate for you.Room was comfortable and was cleaned every day.Resturant is reasonably priced if you dont fancy going out.

Nice hotel with nice crew. The rooms towards street are probably very noisy. Good food in the restaurant. Free internet with printing possibility in the lobby.

The riverside hotel is comfortable and well worth the money. It's location with walking distance to the must see sights in town and exellent breakfast buffe is some of the things that would make us recomend this hotel.

In its heyday, I think this was THE place to stay and be seen. Unfortunately, the new hotel chains have moved in but with vastly inflated prices. This hotel is very clean, although a little jaded around the edges, the staff were excellent, even down to arranging day trips and very cheap prices, much cheaper than all the tourist offices and its on the […] periphery of everywhere you will need to be. Extended our first stay at this hotel and went back for the night before travelling home. Go there, its great. Uzziniet vairāk

A good place to stay especially with family. A walking distance to shopping centre.

I loved this hotel. First of all its older so don't expect a modern western hotel but it has a ton of old french charm. The hotel is about 30 minutes from the airport in district 1 and is close to everything you will want to do while in Saigon. They have a hotel shuttle that will pick you up but it costs $25 where as a taxi will only set you back about […] $8. The shuttle could be worth it however if you have a very late arrival like me and want to be wisked away to the hotel with no complications. The comman areas in the establishment are a little run down(remember i said the place was old) but the rooms were nice and clean and the front desk very helpful. They spoke good enough english to answer basic questions. There is a tour guide office next door that can arrange any tours you may need. The rooms have a great free internet connection and a couple of english movie channels. Unlike the Philippines, the rooms have central a/c and it works wonderful. Nice and chilly all the time. The best part of the hotel was the breakfast which is free. Great selection of American and Vietnamese offerings along with vietnamese coffee which will grow hair on your chest(meaning it's really strong like all there coffee!) The hotel doesn't have a pool but the Majestic hotel next door(a very nice place!) will let you utilize theirs for $5 all day) For the money this place is impossible to beat. For what i paid it will get you a dumpy chain motel in the USA w/o the charm of the Riverside.About the only sketchy part of my hotel experience was a drunk australian passed out in the hallway outside my room during checkin. But he was harmless and the hotel delivered big for the money Uzziniet vairāk

Very good and efficient staff. Breakfast was wonderful each morning. Staff was willing to help out at any time. There was always someone Who spoke english for help in directions. Room was clean, orderly. Location was ideal. I would stay at this hotel again.

We were very impressed with this hotel. It was quite attractive and the staff were very helpful at all times. The breakfast was exceptional.

Pros: - Free Vietnamese style breakfast - Good location Con: - Dark and old public areas - Old room and furnitures - Some light switches even don't work - Security guards sleep on the floor of the lobby at night.

The hotel's location is smack in between 2 prestigious hotels and easily accessible. Room rates matched with the price i paid. Breakfast was good. Places of interest were within walking distance of this hotel. This hotel is specially recommended for Muslim travellers as it is very near the Jamia Mosque and many halal eateries.

The room was cleen and the staff was polite and serviceminded. But the hotel was quite old, and needed some maintenance.

フロントの対応やホテル設備などは決して満足というレベルではありませんが,何しろ立地の良さと値段の安さを考え合わせるとこのホテルの存在価値はアリだと思います。滞在の楽しみを捨てて寝るための場所と割り切るべきです。お湯は５分程度は出ますが,その後は水です。まあ,こんなものです。

établissement un peu veillot sans charme mais bien placé proche des centres d'intérets

Jättetrevlig personal. Även om vi hade svårt att förstå varandra, så ansträngde sig ändå personalen och vi förstod till slut varandra! Bilden på hotellet med floden precis nedanför är mycket missvisande. Det är en stor väg emellan. Inte så vackert och mysigt som bilden visar. Det stod att vårt rum skulle ha river view, men fick ändå mot gården. Men […] i efterhand kändes det bra. Då trafiken var tung och intensiv mellan hotellet och floden. Uzziniet vairāk

típico hotel con decoracion anticuada,

低料金の部屋だったので窓は内廊下に面していたが、エレベーターホールの大きな窓からサイゴン川が眺められ、ゆったりした気分を味わうことができた。 部屋は広く清潔だったが、バスルームのお湯がチョロチョロしか出ず、バスタブを満たすのに30分くらいかかってしまった。

Dejligt, at hotellet ligger ned til floden, men overraskende, at der var en 6 sporet vej imellem hotellet og floden. Vejen er meget vanskelig at komme over. Gangbro eller fodgængertunnel kunne ønskes. Meget central beliggenhed.

Das Hotel befindet sich direkt im Zentrum. Alle bedeutenden Sehenswürdigkeiten können zu Fuß als auch günstig mit öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln erreicht werden. Das Hotel ist für die Lage preiswert. Wer es ruhig möchte(ohne Straßenlärm) sollte nicht mit Blick zum Fluss einschecken. Frühstück ist auf "Ausländer" abgestimmt. Wer Fahrten ins Umfeld plannt […] sollte nicht im Hotel buchen, sondern sich nach Büro "Saigon Tourist" erkundigen und dort buchen.(das Hotel verlangt für seinen Service unangebracht viel Geld) Uzziniet vairāk

ホーチミンはバイクの音がとってもうるさいので 一概にリバーサイド側がいいとは言えないが実情です。 ホテルの前の「TON DUC THANG」通りは 通行量も多く朝からバイクの音で目が覚める はずでしたが、内側の部屋だったためとても しずかでした。 部屋は毎日きれいに清掃されて快適、 毎日１ドル程度のチップを置いておけば まず間違いないです。 セイフティーボックスは日本語の説明書も あり案外ちゃんと機能しています。 このホテルでは、警備員もちゃんといて まず盗難はありません。 シャイな従業員の方ですが親切です。 ９月２日の独立記念日に行くのでしたら 是非、リバーサイドホテルへ。 目の前で花火があがりとっても綺麗です。 ５階のルーフトップでイベントに１０ドル で参加できました。 日本語よりは英語でのコミュニケーション必要。 20110902　TP […] HCM にて Uzziniet vairāk

Fuer das Geld so viel Hotel: absolut empfehlenswert! Die Lage ist sehr zentral mitten im 1. Bezirk, die wichtigsten Sehenswuerdigkeiten alles zu Fuss erreichbar. Moeglicherweise sogar ein Vorteil, ein Zimmer ohne FEnster zu nehmen, denn die Strasse vor dem Hotel ist laut und dicht befahren, auch nachts. Service einwandfrei, Fruestueck o.k.

6月16日から3泊しました、ホテル自体は問題ありませんでした、朝食も美味しいく頂きました、今度ホーチミンで宿泊する時はグレードアップしたいです。

Kvaliteten af rengøringen var ok - når det blev gjort. På 4 dage missede de 2 dage, idet vi var uheldige at få et værelse hvor de først gjorde rent sidst på eftermiddagen, det betød at vi halvdelen af dagene var tilbage for at skulle gøre os klar til aftenen, og der ikke var gjort rent, så vi måtte ringe efter håndklæder.
