Un bond dans le temps : magique !
Pros:

Rester dans cet hôtel mythique est empreint d'un charme incomparable. On est transporté dans le temps et c'est ce que j'étais venue chercher.... J'ai eu exactement ce que j'avais réservé : une chambre luxe avec balcon sur l'opéra. J'ai adoré les planchers qui craquent, les huisseries en bois qui couinent, j'ai adoré prendre mon petit-déjeuner (gargantuesque!) dans le jardin, j'ai tout aimé dans cet hôtel et si je dois revenir à Ho Chi Minh c'est là que je resterai. Par contre attention : munissez-vous de bouchons d'oreilles pour bien dormir la nuit et c'est nickel ! Mon bémol : personne n'y parle le français...

Cons:

Rien! Ah si : peut-être que les joints de la baignoire pourraient être refaits : ça paraîtrait plus clean.

Memorable - my first experience of Vietnam - indelible
Pros:

Wow - this heritage icon is a beautiful living memory of times gone by. It is faithfully maintained by its caretakers - garden inner courtyard for a gracious breakfast, gilded ceilings, airy outdoor marble passages and high ceiling rooms that have balconies overlooking the Opera House. Thank you for having me

Cons:

Nothing - it is old, it is constantly needing maintenance and you an see the effort. Honestly at this location and with this history thefa t it is accessibly priced is huge benefit that offsets any minor issues

Beautiful hotel, great location, iron needed.
Pros:

Great location, lovely building and room.
The room was set up beautifully with complimentary fruit basket and small bottles of water.

Cons:

The water pressure was dreadful making it hard to wash hair.
Although asking for an iron three times, was told it was on its way, only to then be told they don’t have any available.

Отель милый и уютный, в 2 шагах от здания театра. Локация идеальная.Персонал очень вежливый.
Pros:

Я проживала в номере 214, в котором когда-то останавливался знаменитый британский писатель Грэм Грин. Номер с высоким потолком и балконом с видом на здание театра. Мне понравилось абсолютно все и было даже немного грустно покидать этот отель, который стал одним из символов того колониального Сайгона, о котором написаны романы и сняты фильмы.

Bel endroit mais ménage à améliorer
Pros:

L’emplacement est exceptionnel. Proche de tout. Et très calme malgré la distance avec la rue et artère très fréquenté. Conciergerie et bellboy incroyable. Bon petit déjeuné varié. Le room service quotidien était impeccable également. Ils ont été très réactif quand j’avais besoin.

Cons:

- Check in: je n’ai pas eu la chambre que j’ai réservé. Je devais avoir un balcon et vu que l’opéra, j’ai eu vu sur rue. On m’a dit que la chambre était plus grande, c’est faux.
-réception: 3 personnes et ils se regardent 2 min pour savoir qui va oser aider (surtout les hommes, les femmes c’était bien mieux)
- propreté/salete: pour ce standing, on s’attend à des chambres irréprochables. Ils ne nettoient que les partie visible hauteur des yeux. Dès que j’ai mis les pieds dans la chambres, j’ai vu un gros tas de poussière. Ceci dit je l’ai signalé et ça a été nettoyé direct. Le tapis des escaliers est dégoûtant de saleté.

ベトナムの歴史を感じられ、観光にも便利なホテル
Pros:

街の中心地であり、何処に行くにも便利でした。部屋は天井が高く、歴史を感じられる作りでした。

Cons:

部屋の窓が小さく、窓の前には目隠し用の植木が沢山あり、日中も暗かったです。
朝食のパンは残念でした。クロワッサンやデニッシュはありません。また黄身が割れた目玉焼きしか出てきませんでした。
