The hotel is as they say central for most things .Close to the day and night market . The reception area is quite small but the staff are very helpful. The rooms were smallish but clean and comfortable Breakfast on the top floor was good but the views from the restaurant as the sun came up were wonderful.

My wife and I have always wanted to visit Vietnam and just didin't know what to expect. I had the task of finding a hotel and what a gem I found. The Golden Central Hotel is located near the Ben Tranh market so the locaton was excellent to our needs. Our room was on the 11th floor positioned on a... More

Our first night and introduction to Vietnam was at Golden Central Hotel and we were amazed at the helpfulness and care we were given. Our room was beautiful, clean and very comfortable. The position of the hotel was a stone's throw from the day and night market a hive of activity all the time. The breakfast had a wide spread... More

After my initial visit with 4 friends in 2011, I returned with a group of 21. As with my previous visit, the Golden Central lives up to it name in being centrally located hotel. It has well appointed and very clean rooms. My issues came with restaurant and wait staff. 2 days prior, I personally spoke with the restaurant manager... More

We (6 pax) were a little apprehensive after booking the hotel so we called them a couple of days before arrival. Hotel staff was very reassuring and we got a bonus when they upgraded us to suites on a higher floor. The rooms were first-class and as they were on a higher floor, there was no noise and plenty of... More

Stayed for three nights. The hotel is clean and well maintained with a good standard of service and attention from staff. Room was excellent with a superb bathroom. A great pool on the roof, which also has good views over the city (check it out at night). Breakfast is served on the floor below and was of very good quality... More

Spent a month in Vietnam - my first visit to the country and I had two separate stints in HCMC - about 14 nights in total. First stint, I stayed at 5-star hotels (The Equatorial & the Sheraton Saigon Hotel & Towers for two nights each...both great for different reasons, so see my separate review on each of these), but...

As every reviewer says its in a great location. Our room was very small and the cleaning staff didn't like to replenish bathroom supplies. I had to go to the trolley myself and ask for more soap, toilet paper, bodywash, staff don't seem to understand English. Breakfast was probably the worst we had in all of Vietnam. Not even eggs...

This hotel was in a great location, near the big Ben Than Market. The rooms were typical for this part of the world and adequate. The staff was good, the meals were ok. We had stayed at the Equatorial Hotel before which was a step up, but not in as convenient location.
