The staffs are super friendly and helpful, even if you checked out! They still offer you towels, well I didnt expect that :) and also, breakfast are included-- super delicious combi of baguette & butter/eggs. Location needless to say, as night arrives it turned into a hipster place. Room were being cleaned everyday, towels changed everyday! well for the price i'm paying, i can say that i feel like i'm in a 5 star hotel. definitely thumbs UP!

Very nice little hotel without elevator located in a very busy and typical vietnamese street in Saigon. Rooms are small and clean, but very nice. Perfect for a short city trip. Breakfast is served on a balcony on 1st floor with amazing view over the street. There are many shops and restaurants around. The staff is very friendly and helpful. We could leave our luggage for the day, when we departured and we were allowed to take a shower after checking out before going to the airport.

Positives: Anh is helpful if you need information. Room was mostly clean, serviced daily. Negatives: Late to pick us up. Guests are allowed to yell and slam doors at 3am. Very noisy, don't expect much sleep if you stay here. Hot water does not last very long. WiFi kept dropping out. Bathroom flooded. The “double bed” was two single beds pushed together.

Owner Comment (Show)
Dear Jim, Thanks for your comments but you made me really sad and disappointed.This is the first time i have a review like this.And i have some feedback: - You said we picked you up late? : Do i have to pick you up?When you sent me an email to ask for a pick up service i told you that the bus station was very closed to our hotel,only 5 minutes walking,so you could walk to here by yourselves.I also told you that i would try to go there to pick you up.But the problem is i couldn't know exactly the bus time arrival,it's not usually very on time.But at the end i still went there and help you to carry all your bags.What could you expect more than that?Did you pay me any pennies for the pick up service. - You said that we allowed the guests to yell and slam the doors?No no,we don't but it's just their personalities,they are not polite or not,they think about everyone or not.And did it happen every night ? You know,the guests who woke you up at 3a.m and yelled and slam the door were very young and they were on their holiday,they just enjoyed it and they didn't know that it annoyed the others.I also asked them to stop making noise and i think they didn't make any noises on the next days. And did you remember how you you treated me on the next morning? You treated me like that was my mistake,you threatened me that you would put a bad review on tripadvisor and hostelworld because of that and see,you did! Is that really necessary to treat me like that? -You said the wifi kept dropping out?I think we only had some problems with the wifi on the first floor ,You were actually on the second floor and i guessed you did choose honghan-1 instead of honghan-2 as you should that made the trouble you had. - You said your bathroom flooded ?Did you know why it happened?That was because of what you put into your bathroom. -And you wanted a real double bed?Why didn't you ask me?We actually also had a kind of room with a real double bed on the higher floor. You see everything went wrong because you kept silent all the time,because you didn't want to talk to me even i still tried to be friendly,to smile with you,but you,you even didn't look at me,reply me...and i smiled with myself like a stupid guy. Did i do something wrong and made you treated me like that ?Please tell me. Anyway,sorry for all the trouble we made and sorry for the uncomfortable time you had here with us. You comments will also help us to serve other guests better. Hope to see you next time. All the best Anh

Recommended to stay as the hotel is clean, reasonable price with good and friendly staffs who are always ready to help you. Been there for 2 times and will be staying there again if there is another chance. Strategic place for tourist attractions too!

My stay was excellent because of the friendly staff who are always present to help. The room was very clean and comfortable. It was a good value for the money. I would definitely stay here again when I come to HCMC. I suggest adding another computer station in the hostel because the 1 computer there was often in use and the wait was sometimes long.

Hong Han was a great place to stay! It is very affordable. The rooms are very decent with clean comfortable beds, a bar fridge, tv and an ensuite. I couldn\'t believe how cheap it was for the high standard of this small hotel. It even includes breakfast. Breakfast is served on the balcony where you have a great view of the streets of Saigon. There is even a more incredible view from the rooftop. That is worth checking out. It is very quiet and peaceful up there. Also, free wi-fi avaliable!
