“Beautiful hotel by the river”
This hotel is a beautiful, colonial style building by the river which is an oasis of calm away from the hubub of Ho Chi Minh City. it's about 20 minutes in a taxi, but for us the experience of staying in such a lovely location more than made up for the fact it was located out of town. We were glad we did not let that put us off, as it made the visit to HCMC much more relaxing. The hotel has a lovely pool, and a delicious Italian restaurant by the river. The rooms are nicely decorated, clean and comfortable. The staff are very polite and helpful, often going out of their way to help. My only criticism was the housekeepers were quite noisy early in the morning shouting up and down the stairwell and knocking on our door for housekeeping at 8.30am in the morning, a little early for me when I'm on holiday! Otherwise a lovely place and would definitely recommend and return.
“Relaxing break from the bustle of HCMC”
We stayed 2 nights at Thao Dien Village. It was a really relaxing break during our time in Ho Chi Minh City. We enjoyed the pool, the beautiful building and eating meals by the river watching the boats go past. There is not very much else to do in this neighbourhood (District 2 - home to many rich families and expats and some large international schools) but there is a shuttle once a day into downtown and the taxis are cheap. It takes approximately half an hour. The hotel was a little quiet while we were there so eating dinner was a little strange without many other diners. I think on weekends the place is much busier since there is a water puppets show at the Vietnamese restaurant. The Italian restaurant has excellent food and the waiters speak better English than at the other on-site restaurants.
“Great colonial style boutique hotel”
We loved the hotel colonial style and the fact that it is homey and feels like a home away from home. The views make you feel like you are in a resort type of environment rather than a hotel a short distance from the center of a 10 million people city. We also enjoyed the fact that the hotel has many facilities on site with a big spa and gym, a swimming pool, and several restaurants. We even managed to book a tennis game. The service overall was friendly and attentive, maybe less crisp than some of the 5 stars in town but more personal and at a good standard plus overall this was really good value for money (small tip the standard rooms are very nice but the Suites are stunning and for the small difference in price are really worth it if you want to treat yourself).
“Great Food, Okay Service, Far Location”
Thao Dien Village is quite a prized-find at Ho Chi Minh. Great scenary, beautiful hotel architecture, and excellent Italian food in the form of Villa Romain. Service by most of the staff were attentive and polite - though one wished they spoke slightly better English. The stay was marred by the hotel room - Repeated electrical trip and faulty doors, and the technician/electrician took a long time to look into it. It was at least more than an hour. This happened for 3-4 times when we finally got our room changed. The meals at Villa Romain were noteworthy and service staff prompt. The location at District 2 is really a little far. Unless you plan to stay at the hotel all day. A cab trip to District 1 would set you back by more than US$10 at times and 30 mins. Overall, thank you to all at Thao Dien.
“Un peu déçus...”
L'hôtel est très excentré : obligation de prendre un taxi pour rejoindre le centre ville (10km environ). Le personnel n'est ni chaleureux ni accueillant. Si la cadre est magnifique et l'hôtel plein de charme, notre chambre était plutôt décevante (Chambre deluxe) : assez petite, au dernière étage, sous pentes, pas parfaitement entretenue (ex : fauteuil et mur tâchés), de 2 petites fenêtres... La vue sur les berges était malgré tout somptueuse. Cet hôtel a du potentiel mais souffre d'un manque d'attention aux détails (ex : bouilloir non compatible avec les prises électriques, plateau de courtoisie avec café mais pas de tasse...). Des petits détails sans trop d'importance mais qui illustrent assez bien le sentiment que nous avons eu : Un service et une attitude générale face aux clients qui n'est pas à la hauteur du standing de cet hôtel. En résumé : un rapport qualité-prix décevant même pour un grande ville comme Saigon.
