First Time in Ho Chi Minh”
My first time in Ho Chi Minh, but the Dorm Saigon makes me feel at home! It was situated along the shopping district and walking distance away from popular spots. The lobby itself is a definition of comfort, with seats and MAC desktops FoC! The room I stayed was clean and for a Dorm and bunk beds, towels ,pillows and comforters are Surprisingly included! though toilets are shared it was relatively tidy with lemon grass shower gel and shampoo dispenser too! The staff knows how to smile! Will definitely recommend Dorm Saigon!

Exceptional in Saigon”
This boutique hostel is the only one of its kind in Ho Chi Minh. I booked for two nights and ended up staying four. The beds are comfortable and fitted with curtains. The facilities are well maintained and clean. And finally, the staff were simply amazing. I had lost my passport while sightseeing and one of their concierges helped me contact each of the places I had visited the day before. They went over and beyond any expectations I had. I plan to stay again upon my return to Ho Chi Minh. Thank you.

Overall, we did have a great experience during staying at The Dorm Saigon. Would like to suggest The Dorm Saigon on the following: (1) If there is a Lift in the building (convenient to carry big luggage) (2) Water Dispenser @ Public Area (3) Some hooks inside Shower room to hang a toiletries bag (4) Bench & small open cabinet inside shower room, so the guest can place their stuff (5) Female shower room and Male shower room are side to side. Would be better if there is lock to access the door for both rooms.

The place is definitely value for money! I like the interior of the hostel which is minimalist. The staff are lovely too. While the bathroom and shower facilities are shared, we did not mind it as everything was clean and in order. However, some travelers might mind that the location is located at the 3rd floor of the building if I'm correct. Location wise, its around 10-20 mins walking distance from some tourist attractions. Overall, everything was fine, and I'll surely stay with them should I come back to Ho Chi Minh in the future.

One of the best, cosy, quiet, clean and friendly ”
Far away from the hassle and noise of pubs and bikes but close enough to local eateries and fast food, walking distance to all the attraction, friendly and helpful staff, especially Kai Nguyen who even used his account to book a grab to airport. The Dorm Saigon is one of the best hostel I ever stayed, bed is equivalent to five star hotel, room is quiet and clean. The overall set up let me felt like staying in a heritage hotel. Sure will chose this hostel again in my next trip to this city "Paris of the east"

Stay at dorm for 2 nights. A bit tricky to find the dorm because it's in third floor (yes! 3rd floor) . Staffs so friendly and very helpful. She give us welcome drink (read:cold water) . Near to tourist place , mosque and halal restaurant. Just walking distance. We need to pay deposit 200,000 dong and they will give it back when we check out. Luckly we have some dong because we dont know that we need to pay for deposit. I wish they can tell us earlier after we book and pay for room. We chooce private twin bed and bit shock because no bathroom/toilet (we thougt we got private toilet) but shared toilet . Its okay, we enjoyed our stay there If the dorm saigon in first floor will be nice. Haha.

The most remarkable Hostel”
From the moment you step behind their glassed entrance you know The Dorm is different. The ambiance and peacefulness are immediately evident. The rooms are clean and crisp, the bathrooms large enough for everyone to access the facilities and the rooftop garden a welcome place to relax into the wee hours, allowing the hostel world to be but a memory. In the middle of all the hustle and bustle of the thriving city, it can all be left behind for less than the price of a night out. I highly recommend The Dorm even if you are used to staying in a 3 or 4 star hotel - as we were. The one thing I would want to change would be the hall lights that stay on all night (even after I turned them out 3 times)! As the grills on the doors allow the light into the room. Perhaps if there was a timer in operation from 10 till 7 am or something? Understanding this is likely not an issue for most travellers but it was off putting for me!

Thank you so much for your really detail positive review about us. We really glad that you enjoyed your stay here with us. About our hall lights, we will figure out a way to make them least affect our guest in the night as possible. We will try our best to improve ourself so that your next visit will be just like the first.

It was my first time staying in a dormitory room in a hostel and I'm glad I chose The Dorm to stay at. When you walk inside the building where the hostel is situated it's feels a but dodgy, but it's actually very safe. I felt that the area is one of the safest in HCM to walk as a female traveler as it is one of the more expensive neighbourhoods. Opposite of the hostel is the Sheraton hotel and a Gucci shop. The hostel is really peaceful and comfortable. I stayed in a female dorm room with 4 beds and had one of the best sleeps in here. It played a part that it was low season and that the hostel wasn't fully booked. The only weird thing in the hostel is that the showers and the toilet in the lobby don't have a lock, but that's just a minor thing. If possible ask for the lower bunk bed, as that one has curtains for more privacy. And don't miss Ayla for a nice drink, a popular bar 1 floor below The Dorm.

Very clean, professional nice hostel in a great location”
I stayed in this hostel for several weeks in total. First the location is great in district 1 near Nguyen Hue main area which is a great area in Saigon. The hostel itself was very clean, the staff was very very polite and professional, they had a nice breakfast for a low price, and the facilities where good. Overall I think I got a great value for my money here and I would come here again for sure.

Excellent stay”
We had such a pleasant stay at the dorm saigon. We had our private room with a bunk bed which was really comfortable. Everything was beautiful and a lot of commune space to chill out. There is also a nice roof top and a kitchen. The location was excellent near cafes, restaurants and there is also a really nice cocktail bar on the lower floor (Layla). I would definitely come back again. Keep in mind that it is located on the 4th floor and there are no elevator so it is good if you have a backpack and want to exercise a bit ;).

Perfect location”
- Located in the center of the city and you can walk by foot to reach the main attractions in District 1. - We stayed in a room with twin bed. Very small space but it was really comfortable. And I just wish they put mirror in the room so that we can get ready easier. They served us breakfast for two. Shampoo and body soap were provided. There are hair dryer too. - Friendly and polite staffs. They always smile. - The convenience store called Circle is located just right down the stairs. - Food heaven, there are so many restaurants around here. - Recommend this hotel to anyone who’s staying for two nights like us. Will come here again. - their Wifi was fast and efficient as well

3.5 out of 5 stars ”
I stayed here in November. Nice hostel (would probably stay again), but I couldn't give it 5 stars for a few reasons - and most weren't the hostels fault. GOOD: Dorm is modern, very clean, beds are comfortable (great pillows and duvet), bathrooms are clean, showers are hot (most of the time), big communal space for relaxing/working, rooftop patio is nice, small balcony on main floor is quiet and good for relaxing, staff is good although not overly engaged with travellers. BAD: 1. Building is noisy. There's a restaurant on the floor below the dorm and the noise/music bleeds into the room until late (or early morning on Fri/Sat nights). They are also doing construction on that floor so good luck if you want to sleep in. 2. No lockers for larger items (i.e. laptop). I didn't feel the place was "unsafe", but the locker provided can only hold small items. 3. My room was a revolving door of chainsaw snorers. In short, nice place but a few sleepless nights for me here.

The best dorm I ever stayed. The dorm is at a very central location, from which you can get to all major sightseeing in district 1 on foot. The facilities are well maintained, the staff are helpful and friendly as well. I wish there was a lift so we would not have to climb the stairs with luggage and the pillow was more comfortable (it is way too soft). Overall, it was a good experience!

Dear Ms. My, Thank you for your compliments, our staffs are very happy about that. By the way, because of our constructions are not allowed to build the elevator in this apartment so that we could not provide that thing. However, to compensate for this inconvenience, our staffs always strive with enthusiasm so that we can serve any guest with the best possible as we can. Once again, we want to thank you for your stay with us. We hope to see you next time at The Dorm Saigon. On behalf of The Dorm Saigon Team. Jenny Ms.

Exceptional hostel in the heart of district 1. Every detail is worked and the decoration is superb, better than pictures. Modern and minimalistic, the new concept of hostels that is gaining popularity in big cities. Very comfortable rooms with curtains bedside lamp, lockers. Big rooftop perfect to chill. Things to improve: staff is great but they could get more in contact with guest, they look too concern about computer work. Also Kitchen facilities and finally a desk to work with laptops. They have only a big table but its place for dining. Perfect WiFi. Would definitely stay here again.

Location is superb but...”
The address is within walking distance to malls, the Municipal Hall, Post Office, the Basilica, Saigon Opera, and Bitexco Tower, so this is all good. However, the Dorm is on the 3rd floor and there is no lift, so you have to walk up past the 1st floor and 2nd floor which seem to be abandoned and are dirty. Once in the vicinities, however, you get a refreshing smell, nice ambiance, good furniture, excellent facilities(free shampoo and body wash, plus hair blowers). Good for the 1st day, I suppose, when you want to explore the above landmarks.

Minimalist clean facilities, helpful & friendly staffs, centre of town, easily accessible by Grab”
I had issue checking-in on the 1st day & stuck there for almost an hour due to unforeseen issue with Agoda system, it was my 1st time encountered such issue with Agoda somemore it was my first time visiting HCMC it wasn't giving me good impression until I notice the staffs were helpful and patient enough to sort out the issue with Agoda. With their help I got refund for the first night since they couldn't accommodate me. I love the environment in the common area and dorm, made me feel like home, sometimes I just chilled in the dorm for hours during the day. The bunk bed was big for me and 2 pillows were provided, but one downside was the blinds not able to cover the whole bed, not giving enough privacy. Their lemongrass shower gel smells really good! The water heater in the female shower room wasn't working very well, sometimes the water pressure seemed to be very low and not generating hot water at all so I had to bath with cold water but it was fine for me as I already used to it.
