Ấp Hưng Lộc Trip

This well sized boutique hotel in Saigon District 1 is perfectly and centrally located for local and tourist Vietnamese life. Only 30 or so minutes from SGN airport. Traffic here is crazy, but once you get used to the technique of crossing a road etc, you’ll see that the majority of riders and drivers are both safe, slow and skilful! This hotel is surrounded by local and western bars and restaurants, a 15 minute walk to the main, crazy and live music walking street at Bui Vien and a 10 minute walk to the impressive post office and opera house. The hotel lobby was amazing. Chic, well presented and smelt amazing. Staff on hand to assist with bags up the lobby stairs, and check in staff so friendly and helpful. Up to the Bonard Junior Suite on the 4th floor, ample size and plenty of storage. Really quite nice. The rainfall shower is located on the balcony, masked by green foliage, secluded and invigorating, the bath inside the room, large and well presented. Afternoon tea on the indoor rooftop lounge was included in our room rate, we visited once on our last full day, 1430-1630 opening times, with a fantastic selection of cakes, sandwiches, coffee, tea etc. all kept restocked and a really good choice. A really nice addition for hotel guests. The bar also serves here all day and evening, I was disappointed that the bar did not sell any diet/light soda drinks at all, making coffee or water the only choice for diabetics. A really lovely hotel for Saigon and Ho Chi Minh.

The room was beautiful and clean, comfy beds. It has a nice rooftop. The staff is amazing and very helpful. A little far from the tourist area but you can get grab which is cheap and reliable. Would stay here again.
