The Rex is a rather large sprawling complex that seems to have morphed into new areas but still kept the old. The result is two pools, an old wing, a new wing a somewhat disjointed reception area and a high end shopping mall. The location is good, very central. The old wing, and in particular the first room I stayed... More

Start your first night in Ho Chi Minh City with drinks at the Rooftop Bar at the Rex Hotel, when The Five O'Clock Follies are on for a couple of hours. The Follies started back during the "American War" when correspondents gathered on the terrace to drink beer and swap stories about the day's events. There's a great selection of... More

Don't miss the rooftop dining ! Across from the French Opera House and Bak Minh Square on Nguyen Hue Blvd. Visit the Classic Old Saigon French Style Post Office where paper stamps are supplied with glue to attach them to your letter! Great little restaurants hidden everywhere. If possible visit Saigon Phu Quoc Resort on Phu Quoc Island in the... More

We had a premium room which was located in the new wing. It was quiet, comfortable, with good bed and shower. I missed a magnifing mirror in the bathroom. We used their laundry and the clothes were back on the same day. The breakfast is very good and the chinese restaurant is good as well. Many luxury stores like Rolex,... More

We spent 4 nights at the Rex hotel that we have practised since 1995. of course the hotel has been modernized several times and mostly for the better. The rooms on Le Loi or on Huyen Hue are the best, maybe a bit noisy, but full of light and very well appointed. The central position of the hotel is an... More
