Paragon Saigon Hotel

Staffs:11 / 10 ! Outstanding ! Service: 10 / 10 ! Very good ! Location: 9 / 10. Walking distance to many eateries. Japan Street / Japan Town just around the back of the hotel. Walking distances to many more shopping malls and countless numbers of street corner food stalls. About 20 - 25 mins walk to the popular Benh Thanh Market (Fakes Mega Market). Casa Del Habanos literally 5 mins away if you love cigars, whiskey and food! Pool: 6.5 / 10 (Small, that's all). Gym: 5 / 10 (Again small and bare minimum. 1 Treadmill and 2 other machines. No free weights. Breakfast Buffet: 8.5 /10. Pretty decent. You have choices.

A lovely hotel with helpful staff and good facilities. The breakfast was a really lovely buffet, it included a variety of hot and cold options and a pho station. It was a mix of Asian and western food. They also made us breakfast-to-go boxes on our day of departure as we left at 3:30am. The staff went out of their way to be helpful - they always helped to move our bags and were so kind to our children (this seemed to be a theme in vietnam - everyone seemed to like babies!) The rooftop pool was lovely but quite small so would not be suitable for lap swimming. We visited it but didn't get a chance to use it in the end as we were only there for a short time but it seemed nice and our kids would have loved it. The location of the hotel was great, next to Japan town so around lots of Japanese shops and food. It was very central and also walking distance to lots of local attractions, which suited us fine as we wanted to see things on foot with our small children. I anticipate we will be back.

Location was great - 1 street behind Opera House, close enough to all the action of the town centre yet away from the noise and hussle. All major sightseeing attractions within 10 min walk. Our Premier Room with windows was large and comfy, plenty of space so you are not tripping over your luggage. Breakfast was OK - geared more to Asian travellers but they did have a good egg station for eggs any way you like them.

We got in past midnight and the staff were very friendly and had no problem checking in. The room was spacious for the 4 of us; the kids had singles bed each and we had queen bed. Bathroom is very roomy with complete amenities with bathtub and shower. Our room were facing the street so you can hear the hustling and bustling in the morning, as one would expect staying in the centre. Breakfast was sufficient for us, we found it has quite a selection with egg station, pho station, fruits, pastry and hot food bar. Didn't get to use the pool, its on small side nonetheless it would be adequate to frolic on a hot day. We were pretty much within 10minutes walk of everything that we wanted to go/visit. Grab is abundant, easy to get to the airport. All staffs we encountered were very helpful and friendly, defo makes our stay pleasant!

Liked · Paragon Saigon is overall a greayt hotel; it has two main advantages: the location (very near the center, meaning the opera, the cathedral, the French colonial period post office etc) and the fact that it is located on a quiet road, therefore you won't be disturbed by traffic and honking ;) The staff is very gentle and efficient (as broadly speaking, everywhere in Vietnam). Wifi was OK and rooms very always cleaned up properly. Breakfast was OK.
