Eden Star Saigon Hotel

Location: The hotel is conveniently located with many restaurants within walking distance. Taking grab is very easy and cheap to travel from point to point. Check-in: Welcomed by the friendly smiled bellboy and front desk staff. The check in process is fast with a welcome drink and little local snacks. Room: The room is big and clean. The room decor is “old fashioned”. Having smart TV in the room with many functions however, it doesn’t have the mirroring function to iPhone. The bathtub is not useful; rain shower will be better if have. The bad thing is the room door. They should change with a soft closing door. Every guests apparently are slamming the door. Affecting sleep in the late night and early morning. The minibar is free except the wine. Housekeeping: The staff is very friendly and helpful. They even place a personalized thank you card on your desk. Breakfast: Variety of choices. To us it is a good breakfast to start the morning. The gym and spa: The gym is very small with treadmill and a few dumbbells. Don’t have bench for doing weights. Spa has a steam room n sauna. Rooftop bar and pool: The pool is at level 12 with nice breezy view. The happy hour drink is very good. The dinner price is reasonable and food is fabulous. They have wedding function at the pool and notice was given to inform the hotel guests. They even provide alternative to use the next door hotel pool. Day tour: The price a bit of the pricey. For the convenience, you can just book through the hotel. The exchange rate at the hotel is 1 usd to 22,000 dong. Not much of a difference from money changer and bank. I feel it is safer to exchange at the hotel. Overall, we enjoyed the stay at Eden Star. The staff is friendly and helpful. Keep up the excellent work. Thank you.
