Prague Hotel - Ho Chi Minh City

Hotel itself is old and has it's quirks. Didn't have a good nor bad experience. The bed was hard. Wifi works.

Housekeeping was prompt and efficient. The breakfast spread could be better.

We loved the hustle and bustle of the location; it's on "backpacker's row" where lots of travelers hang out, so get ready for late night fun (that said, the air conditioner drowns out most of the street noise - slept fine). Speaking of air conditioning, this room got COLD, which in Vietnam is a true luxury. The hotel is clean and the staff is very nice. We *did* have to ask for them to replace toilet paper again and again though, so don't assume having your room serviced will mean replacing tissues/paper. It lead to some embarrassing panicked calls to the front desk... The bar and pool area are not fancy but it was fine for our needs; the pool water was actually cool, which is rare in Vietnam, but no one really hung out up there either and the bar didn't have many options (e.g. no wines by the glass). Rooftop bars & pools are a major thing in HCMC, and this one feels like "I guess we're doing this" rather than something deliberate and thought through. Also it closes very early. Breakfast is up there and it's free, so you can't complain! The desk staff speaks very strong English & they were able to get us from the airport with very short notice. (Use the Grab app for way cheaper taxi service - hotel charges 350,000VND & Grab was 100,000). The beds were comfortable but the pillows weren't; the room's decor was sleek & modern & spacious enough for all our backpacks to explode all over the place. The shower was great - good water pressure & spacious. Overall, pretty good!

The pool and related area was smal and cramped. There was some issues with water leak on my room and smelled a bit from mold, but they fixed it otherwise the hotel was in good condition and the location was superb. I missed ham and chese to the bread though, so breakfast was a bit too brittish, i like it continental

Friendly, efficient greeting, after small flight of stairs to reception. Lift to all floors. Room cosy, clean crisp bedding. Comfortable firmish bed. Shower room small, but enough. Full range of amenities provided. Decent amount of clothes storage, for a small room. Efficient air conditioning. We overlooked the backpackers street, but undisturbed by any noise. Lots of great restaurants close by. Small clean plunge pool on top floor, pool towels provided. Excellent view of the city. Smoking allowed on this levels terrace, till 10 pm when pool closes. Breakfast surprising good, for this price point of Hotel. Eggs made to order, fresh fruits, yoghurt, fruit juices. Cereal, pastry and bread products. Small selection of basic hot foods. Looked after our luggage while we awaited our departure time. A taxi can come right up to the hotel, unlike the parallel st which will only accommodate motorbikes, which saves dragging luggage to the end of the Street. A great basic hotel. Would stay again.
