This is an older hotel with nice architecture but expect some wear and tear. It is outside the tourist district so you won't be constantly hassled by street touts. It's in an alley off a main street which can be heard but is not annoying. The room has an older air conditioning unit which really cools the room. There is... More

This hotel is one of the most relaxing places that some one may come across accidently in a very crowded city. Once entered premises, the little hotel offers great charm & character & one may forget the surrounding chaos. Room 302 was quite spacious and had character despite being over designed as some of the hotels with Vietnamese style. Outside... More

This is a really unique, interesting hotel in the Binh Thanh district with kind, helpful staff and great food! The architecture and decoration is very pretty. The room very comfortable. There is a lovely rooftop garden and a steam room and sauna. It is a great place for people to stay who do not want to stay in the city... More

We stayed at the Faifoo Boutique for only one night, but found it quite charming. We picked it because it is closer to the airport than the more centrally located hotels closer to the city center. The area around the hotel is not very interesting from a visitor’s perspective, but taxis are cheap and plentiful. It can be a little... More

Faifoo Boutique Hotel is a little gem. When the taxi pulls up at the end of a narrow alley, we had no idea of the little oasis at the end. Despite the constant traffic in the street outside, there was no sound of view of that from the hotel. The hotel was well priced, clean with friendly staff. We had... More

This is one of Saigons best kept secrets. We stayed in this hotel recently as we did not want to stay in the more expensive western styled hotels in the city center and we really loved it. A very traditional vietnamese hotel about $4 in taxi from center of Dist 1 and close to the local market. The staff very... More

We had planned our trip for a long time and decided to treat ourself for a hotel above our budget, as my friend was coming to Vietnam for the first time. I wanted to have a good first impression. This miserable hotel let us down completely. First of all, the room that was offered to us wasn't the one we... More

To respected customer, The room that was booked was Superior Double. Superior comes with or without windows, and this is usually indicated very clearly in room description on our website or partners' sites. The picture of this room (either on our website or partners' sites) shows a Superior room without window, but with a glass wall. We do this to... More

We checked into faifoo and on first impressions, despite the out of the way location, it seemed very charming. The duty manager was very kind and took our baggage to our room. The room offered was nothing like the ones pictured on the website, having no window and a rather starts appearance. We asked to be moved to a room... More

We stayed two nights at this hotel. The room looked nice, but there was a musty and humid smell. To mask the bad smell we found three air fresheners under the bed, in the rack an on the desk what made it even worse. Otherwise the room was ok. The hotel is quite far away from the town center so... More
