River Gate Apartment Saigon HCMC

A serviced apartment, the property manager Goal was willing to drop everything and drive a few hours earlier to this district just to lock up my bags at 11am. Honest and trustworthy, he speaks Vietnamese and English fluently. Went above and beyond.. This apartment is furnished with a bed, couch, TV, iron & board, a washing machine, a kitchen with fridges, utensils and (Vietnamese) condiments, and a bathroom furnished with shampoo, conditioner, and towels. The size of a hotel room, it has a great view of the city from across the Saigon River. Its location is recently developed and expats are common. The receptionists do speak English--but they won't be able to help you much, because the apartment is owned and managed by a third party (Goal). The security guards likely speak Vietnamese only but are friendly enough to help if asked. As of the time of this writing, there's a Kai Coffee House, a VinMart (convenience store), and a 7-11--enough to get you by, if you don't want to travel far for the night. It is much more affordable than a comparable hotel and I likely will book this place again the next time I stay in Saigon--because as hard as I'm trying, I can't stay anything bad. It's a great place to stay.

Area was not very quiet, but I don't think anywhere in HCMC is quiet. The room was pretty basic. More of a stay at friends than hotel kind of place. Was clean though and being on the 16th floor meant it wasn't too noisy.

Clean modern comfortable would stay again good security local supermarkets in same block coffee shop and swimming pool all good for the stay

best place to stay while traveling in ho chi minh city!!
