Xuan Hue Hotel

Hotel was not very clean, especially the kitchen area, but the staff were helpful. Gave me another room when I was complaining about the lamp not working and the fluorescent lights bothering me while I work. If you need hot water for mixing tea or coffee, they will give you the water in a Thermal container. They even delivered free breakfast to the room in the morning.

the staff is nice but the rooms are really disgusting!!! no-one clean the room for ages hairs everywhere bathroom really dirty cigarettes under the bed I don't understand all the good reviews and I'm not used to 4 star hotel but here is really dirty ... again nice staff and pretty cheap but there is much better for this price in Sài Gòn

Well if you want to experience something local, stay in this hotel as most of the staff does not speak English, and we were the only foreign tourists staying in the area. The hotel was once probably a nice 2-3 star hotel, but over the management managed to built up clutter everywhere. the feeling in the lobby or in the dining area is like as if you are staying in your slightly crazy grandma who could not get rid of the old tvs, keyboards, chairs etc.. clutter everywhere. It is dark and dusty. But it has a lift and the room is comfy and spacious - mind you I have not said clean. There were hairs everywhere on the floor, and soap residues in the bathroom. The room had AC and old fashioned tv that you can watch if you are bored as the wifi is pretty poor in the room, but only if you had electricity. Our first night electricity breakage occurred and we were given a torch light. next night we enjoyed our tv. Although we haven't paid for a room with breakfast, manager gives breakfast every morning. As we had to leave around 6.30 in our first morning for a day tour we booked, manager said she would give us dinner instead of breakfast. Not surprisingly, we did not to spend our only night in HoChiMinh city in a dusty old hotel room. So we had dinner elsewhere. Next morning, while we were having breakfast, manager came and gave us 100000 Vietnamese dong, saying that we haven't eaten anything yesterday. Well nice touch and this gesture confused me in terms of how to rate this hotel as she seemed to be doing her best to keep the hotel going without much investment. Overall, if you are looking for a cheap stay, and don't mind a few hair and dust on the floor, and happy to discover local districts, give this a go; otherwise please book a posh hotel in District 1 as this is not one of them
