Rex Hotel
Excellent location near all the destinations, great size of room, it would be great if the bed is queen size or above

ibis Saigon Airport
As a quick stay prior to a very early morning flight, it works perfectly. Situated just outside the airport entrance, it is extremely convenient with excellent airport shuttle service. The check in staff was extremely helpful. For more than a 12-24 hour stay, I cannot recommend it.

Le Saigon Hotel
AC was nice and cold. Hot water was only warm. Not only would I stay again I extended my stay 2 nights. It is a quiet neighborhood but that also means there is not as many places around. Bed was comfortable, and also no bugs.
