Lotte Hotel Saigon

Lotte Hotel Saigon stands at 2A-4A Ton Duc Thang Street, Ben Nghe Ward, District 1, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, on the Saigon River waterfront. Ben Thanh Market is about 1.2 km away in a straight line, and the Dong Khoi district and Nguyen Hue walking street are a short taxi ride or walk away. The property is a large riverfront tower, part of the Korean Lotte hotel group, and it presents a polished, contemporary character with a big lobby and wide river outlook. Its scale makes it feel more like a full-service city resort than a boutique stay. The hotel offers a spa, a pool, a fitness centre, a bar and several restaurants, which gives guests a range of dining options without leaving the building. Deluxe Room, Premier Room and Suite categories are listed, and nightly rates run from about 3,500,000 to 7,000,000 VND. Service is aimed at business travellers, families and tour groups, and the staff are accustomed to international and Korean-speaking visitors. The size of the hotel means busy breakfast periods, so visitors who prefer a quieter meal often go early. The Saigon River waterfront on Ton Duc Thang Street is a calmer edge of District 1. From here, visitors can walk to the Ba Son area and the river promenade, reach the Dong Khoi shopping streets in about 15 minutes, or board evening dinner cruises and the river bus from nearby piers. In practical terms, Vietnam's dong is the local currency and cards are accepted at the hotel's front desk, while small street vendors prefer cash. Check-in is generally in the afternoon and check-out around midday, and early arrivals can usually leave luggage at the front desk. Visitors should expect warm, humid weather year-round, with daytime temperatures typically in the low 30s Celsius. Food is a highlight of staying anywhere in Ho Chi Minh City: pho, banh mi, broken rice (com tam) and fresh seafood are available at inexpensive street stalls and local restaurants close to most hotels, while coffee culture, including cà phê sữa đá served over ice, is part of the daily routine. Visitors can move around by metered taxi, ride-hailing app or motorbike taxi, and the city's first metro line connects the centre with the north-east suburbs for those heading to Suoi Tien or the Thu Duc area.
