Altogether I stayed at the Sofitel Plaza Saigon 5 times between January and May 2009, a total of about 23 nights, due to business trips. It's position just outside the city centre is both a disadvantage and positive. For me it meant a shorter taxi ride to the office (and a reasonable - 3.5km - walk back), It is walking... more

From Singapore, Ho Chi Minh was my second stop at at 5-day business trip to meet with Electronic Distributors and Manufacturers and cater to their requirements for Active Components (Semiconductors). more

LOCATION - A 10-15min car ride to the shopping area (Ben Thanh market). Sofitel provides shuttle to the shopping area on selected hrs, but no return trip to Sofitel - Nothing to explore around the hotel area SERVICE & STAFF - Good, very prompt in their services. ROOM/TOILET & CLEANLINESS - Room is clean, but there was a musty smell... more

Faux skin/ leather wallpaper in room is amazing giving it a designer look. Bed was comfortable n bathroom amenities was luxurious. The breakfast was simply the best! Extensive... more

After two weeks of backpacking in Vietnam, my husband and I splurged on two nights at the end of our trip in this hotel. Judging by the amount of rucksacks around, there were lots of likeminded travellers! The hotel was quite pricey by Vietnamese standards, but it is a great property and we really enjoyed the touches of luxury... did... more

This hotel was our last in Vietnam, and it was one of the nicest I've ever been to (with the exception of Furama in Da Nang). Probably one of the most elegant hotels I've ever seen. Fantastic location; we were able to walk to nearly everything we wanted to see in Saigon. I enjoyed Saigon more than Hanoi; Hanoi is... more

Room was comfy and spacious, and service was excellent. Front desk and concierge were helpful. Hotel breakfast had a decent selection. Location a bit out of the way, but it was a manageable stroll into town. The foodcourt at nearby Diamond Plaza was a good pitstop. more
