Booked through Hostelworld, where the map shows the wrong location. I was concerned that place would be hard to find, but the location where the bus from Phnom Penh dropped us was just very close to the alley (clean and well lit - lots of hotels/hostels here) leading to Phan Lan 2. Reception staff were very friendly and helpful. Rooms... More

A friend and I stayed here for 4 nights after arriving at Luan Vu to find our room unsuitable and Phan Lan Hotel is owned by the same family. At first we were unsure, the room was a little on the small side and more simple than we were expecting. But it was spotlessly clean (came back one time to... More

Stayed for 3 nights at the start of my Vietnam travels. It's super convenient for the bus from Phnom Penh as it's in an alley just yards from where the bus stops and in a good area where every building is either a hotel, a bar, a cafe or a tour booking shop. The staff were helpful and friendly and... More

We found this hotel via Hostelbookers. It had good reviews and seemed to be in a convenient location and it lived up to its description. Rooms were good and clean, the breakfast was basic but good (coffee unlimited, which is important for me!) and the girl on reception couldn't have been more helpful. We booked a trip to The Cao...

We got moved to this hotel after the place next door had no rooms available and we ended up liking it more! The room was great, spacious and comfortable with a good bathroom but what really made the stay so great was the lady at reception! She was young and knowledgable, helped us organise our rooms in different cities and... More

The hotel is located right in the middle of Old Quarter, couple of minutes from the Green Lake and shoping areas in the midst of small shops and street fod vendors. The main feature of the hotel is the staff - attentive, smiling, but genuinely, always there to help and making sure that everything is OK. A lot of examples... More

Stayed here for 2 nights and enjoyed every moment. Room was large and clean. Situated in a side street of Pham Ngu Lao, it was quiet in the morning. Breakfast is included in the price, nothing fancy but nonetheless provides a good start for the day.But what really impressed us was the friendliness and desire to help from the staff.... More

This hotel is located in the backpackers' area in HCMC which makes it superbly accessible (walking distance!) to what a backpacker simply needs: active bars at night (literally in front your hotel but noise is still minimized once you get into your rooms), convenient stores (theres' ministop 20 steps away from hotel), books and clothing stores, etc. 1. the hotel...
