Lovely hotel and service with a smile!
Very quiet and super reception staff. Mr. Long, My, Hanh, Thi, Rosy...and the security staff.

I liked to come here to stay during my vacation because it is just like my home. From food to services and surroundings! I felt secure and friendly with everybody here! I used to book 3 to 5 nights without boring!
From the hotel you can access to almost anything from shopping to entertainment to restaurant!
Well, another important factor is the price thru Agoda. So next time I will do it again.
Travel tip:
To find Bun bo Hue go to Ngo Duc Ke street which is only 2 blocks south.

The hotel was fine. Nothing special but still a good hotel. The location was good, I walked around to most sights.

we were booked in by our friend, have to say he knows how to pick hotels at an affordable price. we choose to stay at affordable hotels rather than the plasticity of 5 star (we do that at home) we want reality. this place was fantastic
Nightlife Tip:
a 2 minute walk to the roof top "mbar" at the majestic

i've used this hotel before, last time with a bigger room for the family. this room was the cheapest available, perfect for me alone not spending too much time in the room. main downside is that there were no windows in the room. The hotel is fairly old, but I dont mind.

The room was with no window. The TV reception is bad. no internet. no restaurant. Nothing worth to stay.. but one thing good would be the location. there's not much around, quiet street, close to the river side. close to the backpackers' streets.

Friendly and professional

my first stay of my multiple point trip in vietnam. it's very important on the first stop to feel like you are welcome to vietnam. i chose riverside hotel because its staft and its location. the staft are very nice and very professional. especially lien, thi, my, hanh, ngan. the location of the hotel is close to everything for your purposes in saigon. besides the riverside picturesque in front of the hotel is second to none in saigon city.
recommend for all to the first stop in vietnam.
Travel tip:
You can find good an affordable Vietnamese food right on the corner of Dong khoi and Ngo duc Ke street.

Great location
Walking distance to many places we wanted to visit in the cty.

with a good map, it is easy to locate places in the city and able to get there by foot. the hotel was just ok for us since we were out most of the time. only good point about the hotel is that it is located at the city center which made it convenient to move around to other parts of the city. i do not find the staff friendly or helpful. they were just doing their own things most of the time, never offered any assistance or help. on the whole our stay was pleasant.
Shopping Tip:
Although Ben Than market is a good shopping place, it has too overcrowded with shops and takes too much time looking around for good bargains. However, when the market closes at 6pm, the night market opens (which is near to Ben Than market) at 8pm and has better bargains. Make sure you look around before buying anything. There's always something cheaper at the next stall. Never agree to the salesperson's first offer. You can try slashing the price by as much as 75% and work your way up. You can usually get your item for 50% of the price they offer or even less.
