Sai Gon Dong Ha Hotel

Staff are very friendly. Room was nice, but property could do with a bit of an renovation.

The hotel is considered one of two of the best hotels in Dong Ha. The staff were professional and a treat to deal with. I stayed here for three nights and enjoyed the location, nearby is the Dong Ha market and next to that is the Coop store (stocked with things I needed and they also have a Jolibees). I don't eat breakfast because of my health so I cannot comment on the included meal. My bathroom had a bathtub, flipflops are on offer, and I even had a ceramic tea pot with cups and saucers. For the total cost, I would gladly stay again. Oh, each night they leave a plate of fruit in each room. Never got to try the pool.

Cool pool

Room was dirty

nice hotel, easy to go shopping and dining,parking the motorbike,easy. best of all the staff, especially the staff at breakfast.

Saigon Dong Ha Hotel was a good stay in Dong Ha while I was traveling through for business for a couple of days. The staff was not fluent but did speak enough English to answer questions at check-in and assist with calling taxis, and were all friendly. The rooms are dated but clean and the bed and pillows were more comfortable than I was expecting at this price point. The hotel is a bit remote, but I did find it decently walkable to the nearby park and some nearby dining options.

Good customer service, facilities little bit old but acceptable.

Convenient

とても快適に過ごせました。
ただ、お湯の温度は固定で、結構温かったです。

👍

If you want to travel to Dong Ha and Quang Tri, this is the place to stay. The hotel is beautiful, along with the view of the river and the city. It is close to highland villages and the spectacular scenery - some of the best in Vietnam. And the price is quite reasonable for the quality hotel this is! We highly recommend the Sai Gon Don Ha Hotel.

The lobby is beautiful, and that’s to make you think the rooms may be similar. Not even close. I saw a previous review that said the rooms are clean and beautiful. I don’t know what room they stayed in but we looked at a few trying to find one with hot water. They were all the same. Carpets were filthy, bathrooms were moldy around the tub. Walls were dirty. The fancy decor spread on the bed in our first room had a big stain on it. The staff tried telling us there was hot water, but it was warm at best. This hotel complex comes across as a high class resort but it has obviously not seen any money put into it for a long time. Breakfast was terrible - everything in the warming trays were ice cold. The only good thing was dinner. We had to eat there because there was nothing else open due to New Year’s. Food was very good but the wait was painfully long. Also, the place was almost totally empty. Both nights we were the only ones in the dining room. Very odd.

Check in was easy. The lobby is bright and clean. The room size is fine. The main problem was the lack of cleanliness in the room. The carpet was filthy and the wall near the bed some unidentifiable brown gunk on it that should/could have been washed but wasn't. People at the desk the second day spoke little or no English. The bars were essentially closed when we were there. We had to hunt for someone to make us a drink who knew nothing about liquor. Dong Ha isn't a big city and this was the end of tourist season which may have been part of the problem.

Our tour group stayed at this hotel while visiting some of the former battlefields in the area. Room clean and comfortable. Food was adequate to very good. Staff very friendly and helpful. Hotel has a large parking lot that can accommodate tour buses. Room could have used some brighter lights.

It good hotel, I'm pleasant with services, breakfast is delicious, Dinner is also good, table in restaurant set up well, Rooms are clean and beautiful. Specially staffs are friendlly, professionals, and allways smile. i'll come back here.

This hotel seems to be a representation of the city itself. It appears that some time ago, maybe 10 or so years, there was a big push to drive tourism into the town that didn't quite pan out. On a drive to Vinh Moc we drove by several spots near the beach where resorts had been constructed but then abandoned, no one seems to visit the museums, and i think maybe half a dozen other people were staying in this 7 story hotel. They clearly overshot their epectations on tourism when they built this hotel- there's a dedicated counter that was clearly envisioned to be dedicated to booking tours for tourists, but now sits empty, same for the "gift shop" in the back. The lounge appears to have had no use for some time, there were signs for a pub restaurant that appeared to be shuttered, as well as what looked like an outdoor restaurant that never saw a soul. It seems that in order to generate revenue the hotel sells day passes for local children to use the pool, though unfortunately that makes it basically impossible to go for a relaxing swim in the afternoon as it is overrun with children.
I was here for my honeymoon and they actually did a BEAUTIFUL spread on the bed with decorations of real flowers, folded towels into a heart, a few snacks, and breakfast passes for the next day. This was very thoughtful and the highlight of our stay.
Again in order to save money they do not air condition the main lobby nor the hallways so the room was the only real respite from the heat and while nicely designed is getting work, i.e. wallpaper starting to peel, and this being vietnam construction standards are't quite so high- the sliding closet door didn't quite activate the switch to turn off the light inside the closet due to improper alignment so I just took out the bulb. Never used the spa because I'd be sweating like crazy before I even made it there. Bathroom had hot to warm water and seems to depend on the temperature outside. Our first two days it was scorching hot and so was the water with no way to adjust the temperature; it was super hot and that was the only temperature, adjusting the dial in the tub didn't affect it. On our last day it was considerably cooler and so was the water; didn't get nearly as warm, only slightly above lukewarm. The fitness center consists of two bikes, one treadmill, 4 dumbbells, and one of those multistation combination things. Probably the closest thing to a gym in the entire city tbh. Our breakfast in the main restuarant was.... fine. Nothing to write home about, not terrible. Our dinner in the same restaurant.... woof. First this area is either not air-conned or barely air-conned, thank god we asked them to set up a portable one right next to us or we wouldn't have even stayed. Our spring rolls were mediocre, but compared to the chicken (forget the name of the dish specifically) it was gourmet. Literally they put some salt and pepper on it and grilled it.... that's it. zero flavor lol. Seriously don't eat here, go to Tam's cafe instead. Staff doesn't speak the greatest english, sooooooo glad i had my vietnamese girlfriend with me. They also insisted on keeping my passport until i checked out and hell effing no, I'm not letting them do that so I insisted they just make a copy like a normal hotel. Seriously, I've been all over the world and not ONE place has ever asked to keep my passport.
I used to work as a lifeguard and swim instructor so I know what pools should look like- the pool was always kinda murky. I know in previous responses the hotel said it was due to rain and while rain can cause this issue I saw it when it hadn't rained for days so that's definitely not it. Either the plumbing wasn't adequately built or they just don't know how to manage it.
Whoo! Longest review I've ever written. Ok, so after alllllll that, do I recommend the hotel? Actually yes. Wait, what? Yes. It's still probably the best hotel in Hue tbh. While there is another hotel on the same caliber as this one you can read horror story after horror story there. At least here I always had warm to hot water and no blood on my sheets! So yeah, temper your expectations, but if you're here to see the Vinh Moc tunnels this is probably your best bet.

We were on a tour and stayed at this hotel. It is a well worn hotel. The staff were very good and accommodating. The hotel is very nice. The rooms were spacious and the air conditioning worked will. However, they were having some mechanical problems, the electrical power was intermittent and there was no hot water for showers. We were so hot from our excursions to Khe Sahn it was refreshing to cool off.

I spent two non-consecutive nights at the Saigon. The rooms are large and well appointed. The first stay the hot water was spotty, but two nights later it was working well. I did not try the breakfast.

The fitness center was outdated. The dining experience was not so good at hotel for dinner. Breakfast was great. Dinner was not so great.

whenmosfaire I ordered this hotel I did it basically because the one I wanted was fully booked. But this hotel here looked ok. upon arrival, the car couldn't take me to the entrance, the hotel allowed some bikers to block the entrance, but ok walking should be healthy, especially with the luggage. first impression of the reception area big and cold second impression worse, no atmosphere. Check in went quick, got a room with river view and pool view, went to the room, ok but a little worn out. opened up the curtains and what a view, the swimming pool just look as dirty as the river passing by, ok no swimming. ok relax a little and then out and see the hotel, tried my best, but next to the hotel is a main road and these vietnamese truck, bus, car man mini motor bike drivers all use the horn at the same time, and it just goes on, ok I can change room to city view, bur the road curves so same same traffic noise. all the time.
oh there was a announcement that on the 5 of august there would be some entertainment, I went there 19:30 and was waiting, asked in the reception and oh it has been cancelled, no information was given to the guest(s). there was a breakfast buffet ok but seen better in Vietnam, tried one evening a steak, take it of the meny, if I want chewing gum I can buy that i a store. stick to the vietnamese courses, but leave the duck out, in the menu I saw it ordered it and in came small pieces of fat and skin. I gave up, but they insisted they could do it better, after 1 hour I cancelled. at the same time there was a dinner party on approx 6 persons they got attention, fan for cooling food was brought in. I have been working 6 years in Vietnam and never seen such a poor service or food and personal treatment, but I am not stupid, so I sneak in and took a fan from the restaurant and brought it outside, the bum the service people can from everywhere oh let us do this for you sir, when I asked for a fan they walked away.
do I come back, hmmm no never. it was a 3 time experience in 1, 1st - only - and last.
oh I left one day before planned and went back to Laos, when I got my uncooked omelette I just new I had to move back to Laos. If I will go back to Vietnam, yes even to Dong Ha but maybe at one of the resorts closer to the beach, or Hue.
