This is my first time ever coming to Vietnam and I've been suggested by a vietnamese friend of mine to book in at Blue River Hotel. At my arrival in the Ho Chi Minh airport, I was happy to find a taxi driver they called for us and a friendly housekeeper at the hotel. (we arrived in late evening, 23pm).... More

This hotel was recommended to me by a couple I met in Hoi An so I thought I'd give it a try. Glad I did because the place is very good indeed. Good, friendly and helpful staff who are always smiling. Now as the idea of Trip Advisor reviews is to "honestly" advise fellow travellers of the pro's and cons... More

Is is possible for this place to be better than the past year? Yes, apparently so! The comments on location and staff should always include the wonderful young owner, Thuy, who, among other things, is quite the musician. If you are lucky, you will be able to hear her playing away on the piano that is also available to guests,... More

The staff are friendly and had great recommendations for restaurants. But, we had bed bugs in our room. We woke up in the middle of the night scratching and... More

It was a great pleasant feeling to see the newly remodel Blue River Hotel with Thuy, the beautiful owner’s smiling face. Every thing at this hotel are better than before with all the new bath room, air-conditioning and the large lobby with Thuy at the piano. I am back to my little home away from home. Thank you Thuy and... More

We stayed at this hotel for 4 nights in December after traveling Vietnam and Cambodia. The Blue River is a great hotel, fantastic location in the heart of district 1 - best bit is that the hotel is off the main street and therefore lovely and quiet at night! The rooms are lovely, recently refurbished, the bathroom was good, lovely... More

I've stayed at this hotel a number of times over the years. I come here because it's quiet at night, the location is great, and the value is spectacular. But the primary reason I come is because of a particularly exceptional staff person. I visited again in Nov & Dec and had a very pleasant stay. They have remodeled some... More
