Bong Sen Hotel Saigon

Bong Sen Hotel Saigon is a 3-star hotel on Dong Khoi Street in District 1, Ho Chi Minh City, 150 m from the Saigon Opera House and close to the shops and restaurants of the old centre. It suits travellers who want to explore on foot and prefer a modern city hotel with a spa and a fitness centre to a resort on the outskirts. Free WiFi is available in all areas.

Rooms are modern and come in six types, from 25 m² to 38 m². Each has a private bathroom with bath, shower and hairdryer, air conditioning, a flat-screen TV and a minibar. The Deluxe City View Twin and Deluxe City View Double have 32 m² balconies over the city, while the Family Deluxe Triple, at 38 m², is the largest room and sleeps up to three guests. Some rooms look onto the hotel's corridor or interior rather than the street.

The spa offers massages, a spa bath and a sauna. All-day dining is at Lotus Centre, which serves European and Asian dishes, halal food and buffet spreads, and Gánh restaurant serves Vietnamese dishes. Reception staff provide concierge and business services, and a tour desk helps with trip planning and travel arrangements.

The six room types range from 25 m² to 38 m² and share the essentials: a private bathroom with bath and shower, air conditioning, a flat-screen TV and a minibar. The two rooms with a balcony and a city view, the Deluxe City View Twin and the Deluxe City View Double, are the most distinctive of the range. The Twin has two single beds, while the Double has one double bed and a seating area.

Three of the rooms have no city view. The Deluxe Twin No View and the Deluxe Double No View, both 25 m², look onto the hotel's interior, and the Deluxe Inside Double Room (No Window) is a 25 m² room with a large king-size bed and no window at all. The Family Deluxe Triple, at 38 m², sleeps up to three guests with a double bed and a single bed, and its window looks onto the hotel corridor. Bathrobes are available in the city-view rooms only.

The front desk runs around the clock, and concierge service and daily housekeeping are part of the everyday routine. Laundry, dry cleaning and ironing are available, and the business centre has meeting and banquet facilities for work trips. A lift serves the floors, and room service covers meals in the room.

For sightseeing, the property offers walking tours and a tour or class about local culture. Fitness facilities are on site, and a restaurant is on the premises. Non-smoking is maintained throughout the property, with non-smoking rooms, and a safety deposit box, key-card access and 24-hour security add to the comfort and security of your stay.

Breakfast is offered in continental and buffet styles. WiFi is available in all areas free of charge, and no parking is available at the property. Air conditioning and family rooms complete the general facilities.

Bong Sen Hotel Saigon stands on Dong Khoi Street, the shopping street of District 1, where the old streets of the centre meet modern shopfronts. The Saigon Opera House and Lam Son Park are both 150 m away, and the Museum of Ho Chi Minh City is 450 m away. Me Linh Square is within 300 m, and the Ho Chi Minh Statue and the Sri Thenday Yutthapani Temple are a few minutes' walk from the front door, so the streets around the hotel are easy to explore on foot.

The Opera House metro station is 200 m away on Metro Line 1, which runs from Ben Thanh to Suoi Tien, and the Bến Bạch Đằng ferry terminal, 400 m away, serves boats along the Saigon River. Tan Son Nhat International Airport is 5.7 km away, and Saigon Railway Station lies further north-west, so a taxi or ride-hailing car is the practical way to cover the longer distances from the hotel.

The Ho Chi Minh City Hall is 350 m away and the Old Market 400 m, both easy to reach on foot for food and everyday goods. The Fine Arts Museum, 800 m away, and the War Remnants Museum, 1.3 km away, are close by, the first on foot and the second by a short taxi ride. Ben Thanh market and the Nguyen Hue walking street are both in District 1, a short walk or taxi from the hotel.
