Hotels with Spas in District 5

"The Equatorial is a beautiful 5 Star (and worth all the stars!) Hotel, located on the outskirts of Chinatown in District 5, close to the central District 1. There is a free minibus shuttle service into the heart of Saigon every other hour. This is a large hotel, but the layout and staff make the hotel seem to have a very personal feel - and they remember your name and make every effort to assist you. The swimming pool is a welcome relief to the heat of Saigon, and we were able to relax there every day on the loungers. The rooms were excellent with all the trimmings you would expect from a hotel of this standard. The buffet breakfast was incredible - a veritable feast! Many a course of very tasty fresh food for all tastes. On a final note - we had a couple of incidents where I left my camera behind in the dining room, and my Dad left his wallet in a taxi - and the staff were so helpful, both items returned untouched to the rightful owners! They even offered a basket of fruit to us as my parents were upset at the missing wallet and made every effort to re-assure them and retrieve the items. And finally (again) - even though the internet is a paid for option, they give you a free cup of coffee and you have the use of a brand new Apple Mac with a huge screen, equates to approx a dollar an hour! Well worth it ... "

"This Hotel is Currently being Renovated but we did not experience any noise or problems while we were there. Hotel is in District 5 and the main 2 Districts for Westerners is District 1 and District 5 . We found the room very Comfy and clean also quite large (9th Floor). Breakfast was very adequate and could not dislike anything. This Hotel has a Supermarket attached to it , also has a very large Market style shopping centre attached to it where you can by all the thing you like from Jewelery to Shoes to Clothes to Watches. There is a free shuttle bus which runs every hour from 7am till 11 pm and has 3 drop off/Pick up points in District 1. We utilized this service quite regularly and found it great. Staff are very friendly and very helpful . Would definitely stay there again on next visit to Vietnam.. "

"Overall stars - 5 of 5 Hotel staff - 5 of 5 Restaurant staff - 4 of 5 Room service staff - did not use Housekeeping staff - 5 of 5 Room - 5 of 5 Bed comfortable rating - 5 of 5 Room size – small to medium Restaurant / breakfast - 3 of 5 (very limited variety, but then it is a small boutique hotel so buffet is not possible as there is no volume) WIFI - Free, good connectivity Location - Chinatown district 5. District 1 is approx US$5 taxi away Attractions / Sights - Most sights would be within US$8 taxi ride I'd say. Free shuttle - no Spa - Nil Room Tip / Comments - Do not take the front room. There is a stupid cock nearby that starts cuckolding at 0530hrs and goes through till at least 11am, unless of course you sleep with ear plugs... "

"Located in district 5, just a bit far from district 1,but taxi only cost around $2 USD, make sure you take the "Vinasun" taxi, I got ripped off by other taxi company. Massage is good from this hotel. "

"I can highly recommend the "Valantine" Hotel. It's brand new, so only the first 4 floor are operating (spa and floors 5-8 will come later in 2 months). The satff is very attentive and helpful but only one or two speak English sufficiently. Not everyone might want to stay in District 5, which is about 3 kilometers from the city center. However, I liked the neighborhood, which is void of tourists. Overall, the 25 bucks I paid per night were well spend, even though breakfast wasn't included since I had booked with Agoda. The hotel is in excellent condition: waterfall shower, interesting light arrangements, etc. Laundry is slightly overpriced but there aren't any other options in the vicinity."

"Good Location, as you only need 10 mins of taxi ride to district 1. Great for couples on holiday with a big bath tub in the Fantasy room!!"
