We enjoyed our stay at the Bich Duyen. It was our first stop in an around the world trip that included a few months in SE Asia. The hotel has pleasant rooms and is located in a very central location in the city. Most importantly as we would find out throughout our travels of the region, the staff spoke english... More

The Bich Duyen Hotel is a simple, straightforward hostel in the heart of the backpacker district of HCMC. There is nothing special with their facilities, but what won me over were the very friendly and helpful staff. Booked through hostels.com, I got a standard room good for 3 people for around 27A$ a night. Good value for money considering you... More

We chose to come to the Bich Duyen after reading the great reviews here. It was a great-value stay. We got a taxi from the airport for 160,000 dong, which was a good deal. The hotel is in the middle of the backpacker district with lots of great bars and restaurants, but the room wasn't noisy at all. The breakfast... More

For $25 a night with simple breakfast and very happy chanh, the room was fine and very clean, only down side is the bloody stairs we were on the top floor and the jet lag didn't help, but that a side it's a good choice and very safe. Plenty of restaurants and bars around the area.

Second time we stayed here. Breakfast is nice and rooms very clean. Good location and would recommend airport taxi service . Only issue was no hot water for the 2 days we stayed. If you can't manage stairs this isn't the place for you!
