“Nice Stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 February 2012
1
person found this review helpful

I had a really great stay at the Renaissance. The rooms were spacious, service was great, and the location was great as well. I was travelling for leisure, and the hotel made a great home base for day trips and excursions.

The breakfast was great – huge assortment at the buffet and a good way to fuel up before heading out for the day. There appeared to be mostly business travelers staying there, if I were staying on business this hotel would have met all my needs as it also did for my leisure travel. The concierge services were very helpful in assisting with tours, dining recommendations and directions.

Everything I would expect form a city hotel, plus excellent service. Very good choice when staying in Saigon.

“Very nice hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 February 2012

person found this review helpful

Located by the river in District 1. It is a little far from the airport but it is a very nice hotel. Rooms on the executive level are large with King beds, and sofa. The buffet is very good with fresh lobster, crab, shrimp, beef, Pho etc in addition to all kinds of other prepared food. Have stayed here 3 times and the service has been very good. The only thing is if you are single with a vietnamese gf or bf, they will not let them stay in the hotel past 11pm at night. (some kind of law that while not enforced on other areas of vietnam, are here) Taxis are cheap and safe but have the door man tell them exactly where you are going and take a hotel card with you for the return trip.

Room Tip: Pay the extra $50 usd to upgrade to the executive floor. You get breakfast, drinks and the rooms ar...

“A great city hideaway!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 February 2012
1
person found this review helpful

We booked a few nights here after spending Christmas in the North at Halong Bay and Hanoi. By taking the optional upgrade, we had a fantastic room with River views, an enormous bed and great selection of mini bar treats! The roof top pool and bar became firm favourites and allowed us to relax before starting to explore the city. Would defiantly recommend.

Room Tip: Go for the upgrade!

“River view Renaissance”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 February 2012
2
people found this review helpful

This hotel is ideally located with fantastic river views and the hustle and bustle of Ho Chi Minh. The corner rooms are spacious and afford the best views. The pool area is perfect for relaxing and swimming after surviving the street scene. Massages are very good and affordable. Good restaurants are in close proximity. The hotel restaurant was more expensive. Worth taking a short walk outside. Breakfast area very well run. Staff also very professional.

Room Tip: Ask for a river/city view in a corner room.

“Great Property to Entertain on the Club Level”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 February 2012
3
people found this review helpful

Looking to burn off some Marriott Points we booked a couple of nights at this well regarded location. We generally stay with family in Dist 3 to avoid the heavy tourist in Dist 1. Booked a non club level room hoping for a free upgrade on my Gold Level. @ Check in we were sent right to the club level on the 18th floor and given a city view on the 19th floor. Next time I’ll opt for the river view but did not this time based on other reviews.

We enjoyed the club often with two guests each time and enabled us to entertain with style @ a Zero cost. Even if we had paid full price it would have been an excellent value with impressed family and friends memories. Well stocked bar, good food and the view of the river and service...

The hotel is well described by others so I’ll speak on the high level of well trained staff that helped my girlfriend recover her camera left in a taxi. They reviewed the sec videos and called the taxi company with the car number. Again, we used the hotel often in entertaining and the staff was impressive. The level of service was the best I have experienced anywhere and exceeds Italy. VN is known for excellent service, so the standards are high and this Property GM and staff desrve high praise.
