Dai Nam Open Zoo

I booked this hotel because it was advertised as having a spa. Unfortunately it's been closed since covid....fortunately there were excellent spas nearby. My main grip was that the hotel was essentially all beige. Certainly some colors would help add to it's esthetic appeal. While my room, like the lobby, was all beige, I did like the layout. I even had a bit of a view. The restaurant was unappealing from a design perspective...again it's beige. I also found the food to be uninspiring...this includes the breakfast. But there's many excellent restaurants nearby. The location was excellent. Close to the Opera and other key attractions. I didn't visit the pool area or gym.

Had an enjoyable stay. Stayed with a friend in the twin room. Room was an internal Room 505. No windows but was not a big problem. Room was quiet. Room was small but adequate. Large bathroom and shower. Standouts: Rooftop pools and cafes, small gym, friendly staff, spa and breakfast buffet. Oasis in the middle of HCMC. District 1 so walking to war museum, post office and cathedral. Lots of dining options also close. Would recommend and stay again.

Staff are extremely courteous and helpful. Team are eager to assist. GM Mary Duong went above and beyond to assure we were taken care of. free fresh fruit were sent to room every day, thank you cake in the evening, even 2 free x 1 hour massage session. She made sure we were comfortable and well taken care of . Room was always clean and new linens everyday. Breakfast, lots of choices and delicious. The location was great. Opposite the market and we were able to walk to museum and the river.
