I was pleasantly surprised with this hotel. It really is not far from town center (about 20mins in a cab). It is very nice inside and the room was very good. It is quiet, clean and of a high standard. The breakfast was lovely, the satff reasonably helpful and the pool was well done. For anyone that is looking for... more

We stayed for one night on our way out of Vietnam after travelling down from the north over 3 weeks. This hotel is perfectly adequate but it was not a nice farewell to the country. The service is definitely sub-standard for an Accor hotel, particularly considering how many staff seemed to be wandering around not doing anything. For a business... more

Lovely rooms but were very disappointed by the service/lack of it. The hotel has changed its name to the park royal and in my opinion is geared up for the business sector rather than the tourist. We visited as part of our honeymoon and explained this when checking in. When we got to our room we had been given twin... more

As other posters say, this is very convenient to the airport. 3 star, clean, bland is how to describe it. If you are staying more than one night - stay in town. Tips: take a metered taxi from the airport, it's cheaper. Always check that the taxi man knows where you are going, gave the concierge the address of where... more

The Novotel Garden is perfect for your last night in Vietnam if you are flying out of Ho Chi Minh City. Just minutes from the airport, it is suprisingly nice and a good value. We used the Novotel Garden in October 2005 and again in November 2007, when it worked out so beautifully that we were flying into HCMC in... more

We chose this hotel for its proximity to the airport (about 5 mins taxi ride away). You can buy currency and book a taxi as soon as you clear customs: the taxi is a rip-off (we paid VND 90k to get to the hotel and VND 25k the next day to the airport) but when you are talking about GBP... more

Stayed here for 1 night as it is close to the airport and will definitely considered again if it is for 1 night stopover First of all, this is one of the first few internation hotel chain to set up in HCMC and it can tell from the exterior, the building looked old but this was made up by the... more

Very huge room. Good service. Good spread of buffet from breakfast till dinner. Wonderful swimming pool. Free Wifi connection for standard rooms. About 5-10 mins to the airport. Provide free shuttle bus to/fro the city (Saigon Centre at Le Loi) or E-town. Bus schedule is 7am, 9.30am, 11.30am, 1.30pm, 4pm, 7pm and 9pm. About 20 mins to city. If you... more

I have rarely been to such a good hotel offering such value for money. I was booked by my local agents into an Orchid Room which included buffet breakfast and free internet for US$90 per night! The room was modern and spotless and the bathroom was excellent. The choice for breakfast was good and the location near to the airport... more
