Cherry Hotel

I had a layover between flights and decided to go downtown. Hotel located in the Japanese area, 20 minutes from the airport, a few steps from the Opera House. The area is a bit noisy due to the presence of many bars and restaurants. Standard rooms with good value for money.

I was in Ho Chi Minh City for 2 weeks for dental work, and Cherry Hotel is located minutes walk from the dental clinic. Since my stay is for 2 weeks, this 3* hotel is perfect. It is located in District 1, very central to everything, especially the Opera and also Ban Thanh Markets. The staff are wonderful, very friendly and helpful. If you are looking for a 3*, then I recommend this property.

I took a Grab from the airport, and it took 30 minutes to go for VND 187,200 (about 1,150 yen) and 20 minutes to return for VND 154,960 (about 950 yen). It is located next to the Japanese town on Le Thanh Ton Street, and there are Family Marts, Circle Ks, various restaurants, massage shops, etc. nearby. Dong Khoi Street is also within walking distance, so it is a convenient location. I stayed in a room at the back of the 7th floor, and there was no noise at all. It was clean and well-cleaned, with a comfortable bed, a shower with perfect water pressure and temperature control, a hand-operated washlet, and all the amenities. However, the WIFI was unstable, so it may not be suitable for work. Also, due to the location, it is a hotel for single people rather than for families. The staff were very friendly and I had a comfortable and pleasant stay. I recommend it.
