We are travelling for 1 year and we compare this hotel with other budget hotels we stayed. A couple of days before we arrived in HCMC we send the hotel an email to make a reservation. We did not had a reaction and when we arrived at the hotel they said they did not receive our email. Luckily there was... More

Phoenix 74 was no frills, but it was cheap and clean and perfectly suited to our needs. The location can’t be beat – It is in the Pham Nggo Lao area so there are TONS of places to eat & drink– restaurants, food carts, etc right outside of your door. You are also a 5 minute walk to the Ben... More

I believe that calling the staff at this hotel incompetent, would be a compliment (same goes for Phoenix 75). I sincerely believe that a rock with eyes painted on it would have been more helpful. The hotel was small and cramped, there are many stairs, the rooms are not very clean, and the people are terrible. Did I mention I... More

I was a solo traveller from New Zealand, and wanted somewhere to lay my head at the end of the day, and the Phoenix74 fitted that bill perfectly. It is in the old quarter, an area that hasn't been polluted as much by western influence, therefore one became more integrated into the Vietnamese culture and lifestyle. The room (for one... More

How can people complain about this hotel??? When you pay such a low price, don't expect a palace. Get real!!!! We have paid 14USD for 2 people / night and that was good for me. Ok it wasn't very clean and the service wasn't great but I expected it to be the case. If you are on a budget, go... More

Very old and run down. Air Conditioner loud and not even cool. Bed uncomfortable and the bathroom in need of repair. Staff were friendly but didn't make up for the lack of comfort. Plus if you wanted to use the lift without your luggaget they wanted you to pay $2.00! Much better hotels for the same price in HCMC More

I traveled for 6 weeks in Vietnam. This was really the worse place. Besides that the room was nothing special and not so clean, they decided after making a priceagreement with me that in this price airconditioning wasn t included. Only thing was that they forgot to tell me. So I just found out when I wanted to switch on... More

The room was very small, with no sunlight and a little dirty, but If you bear in mind that you are paying 15 USD for a double room with private shower, breakfast and internet access, this is a good choice. Ask for rooms with no street view, because the noise can be high during the night. More

This hotel was a few dollars cheaper than some of the others on the this street. We were happy with our little room. The fan was good enough for us, there was hot water, and it was a central location. Room was clean and beds comfortable. Only one computer worked downstairs but it is a bit on the old side.... More
