    Convenient stay with friendly service

    The staff were friendly, making us feel welcomed. The room was clean and spacious, perfect for our family needs and provided comfort after a long travel day.

    The breakfast options were somewhat limited for western tastes, and we found the pool's location confusing as it was outside the main hotel building.

    The pros, the cons, and everything between

    Amazing airport pickup service and friendly staff! The breakfast spread was delicious and catered to various tastes.

    The wifi was inconsistent, and the hotel could be quite noisy due to large groups' activities.

    flight delays

    During my stay at First Hotel in Ho Chi Minh City, I was really impressed by the comfortable bed in the Deluxe Room and the cleanliness throughout the hotel. The breakfast was a highlight, offering a great selection of delicious dishes that catered to various tastes. The staff were also very accommodating and made my experience smooth from check-in to check-out.

    The airport pickup was a little chaotic at first due to flight delays.

    Pleasant Stay with Helpful Staff

    Had an issue with my room allocation, but the staff quickly resolved it, moving me to a more suitable room. The breakfast spread delighted me with its variety and freshness, especially the local dishes. A tip , ask about room setups in advance to avoid confusion.

    spa lounge
    breakfast variety

    The large rooms were super comfy, and I loved the peaceful garden area for relaxing. The pool and spa lounge were great spots to unwind after a busy day. Just a heads-up, the breakfast options could use a bit more variety! 😊

    spacious rooms
    excellent staff
    crowded pool
    limited breakfast
    noise disturbance

    The rooms are spacious and well-maintained, ensuring a comfortable stay for families. The staff went above and beyond, providing fantastic assistance, especially during airport transfers, which was a lifesaver. the pool area felt a bit congested, especially considering its proximity to the restaurant. Late breakfast options seemed limited, and noise levels during group events could disrupt a relaxing atmosphere.

    elegant lobby
    outdated rooms

    The hotel is beautifully designed, with an elegant lobby that feels upscale. The breakfast buffet is impressive, featuring a wide range of both Western and Vietnamese dishes that cater to various tastes.

    The rooms felt a bit outdated and were smaller than expected for a family of three.

    6.0

    The hotel has a classic charm, with wooden decor that gives it a unique feel, reminiscent of vintage films. The breakfast buffet is extensive, featuring a variety of dishes, including many options for Chinese cuisine, which is a nice touch for diverse tastes.

    The room situation can be tricky. The pool’s location in the middle of the restaurant can feel crowded, and it’s annoying when the advertised sunbeds aren’t available. If you’re looking for a quiet night, be prepared for noise from large groups, which can disrupt your sleep. WiFi access can be frustratingly limited when the hotel is full, requiring you to rely on connections in the lobby instead of your room—it's puzzling for a place that markets itself as accommodating.

    great breakfast
    confusing pickup
    initial delay

    I stayed in the Deluxe Room, and it was perfect! Super comfy bed and the room was really clean. The staff were nice and made everything smooth. The breakfast was a big highlight too, with a great selection and the eggs cooked just right. The only downside was the airport pickup situation was a bit chaotic at first due to our flight delay, but the staff sorted it out quickly. great experience!

    helpful staff

    Just a great match for an overnight stay in Ho Chi Minh City with good price value. The staff were super helpful in hailing a taxi for me whenever I needed to go out. Remember to ask for a room far from any noisy groups or events if you want a quiet night.
