Housekeeping daily and great customer service. Cheap and in a fantastic location for everything. Would highly recommend 😁

Honestly if you’re looking for something inexpensive and right in the action here you go. The rice hotel is has everything you need for a great price. The room is roomy, bed is comfy, bathroom has hot water, and also the air conditioning works fine. It doesn’t have an elevator, the room is kinda dated, there’s no full length mirror and bathroom doesn’t have much light. If you want to live a bit like the locals this is the hotel for you.

Great spot for backpackers

The staff was very helpful and I loved the convenience of 7-11’s and restaurants nearby.

Good location if you want to be close to the Walking Street and shopping. I didn't try breakfast so I couldn't rate that. Room was small, but it was comfortable.

Great Staff

Stayed for 2 nights only , the location is very central easy to go around , easy access to taxi for airport transport. The place is okay with the price you are paying the staffs are very friendly and accommodating. Breakfast was great, will stay again if I visit vietnam again in the future .

Staff was really helpful and large clean room. People have commented on the lack of elevator already (there is one for luggage). It is adjacent to a very busy, touristy street, crowded until late in the night. So if you are looking to sleep early, go somewhere else or bring ear plugs. As an FYI, breakfast is 50 meters away (no big deal) and takes ~30 minutes between ordering and eating so factor that in if you have a tour scheduled.

6/10 Okay

Be aware... NO ELEVATOR. Also... there are maybe three locations for this "hotel". We originally arrived at the one Google sent us to. But then we were directed to another building about 2 blocks away. Breakfast is served at a nearby restaurant (I think also operated by the hotel)... but is not available inside the hotel building, even though they do have a restaurant in the hotel.

Rice hotel is very accessible around the city. A lot of restaurants nearby and nightlife. The room was clean and roomy. The only problem is theres no elevator for people only for luggages. Other than that, we were so happy during our stay.

Very conveniently located, older hotel right at the start of Bui Vien Walking street. very clean and neat room in older facility. No elevator, so prepare to get your steps in! Price is very reasonable with breakfast included. Staff is great! Very friendly and available to answer all questuions.

The Fo e whites was very efficient accomodating and affordable for a large family of adults. We had 2 rooms and they managed to accommodate putting us on the same floor and let us check out late for absolutely nothing. A bit outdated but very clean and housekeeping everyday. They don’t have a lift but they will take your luggage up with you and this was no inconvenience with 5 large suitcases so don’t let it put you of. It’s right in the heart of everything and very convenient and safe for young adults to walk around at night. Also managed to get a piercing and a couple of small tattoos while visiting. Fantastic area to base yourself and Grab transport car/bikes are ridiculously cheap. I suggest while in Vietnam you also get yourself a local Esim(IPhone 12 and higher only) and for 10 days we laid 12 AUD which is so cheap and the reception in villages was amazing. We were originally data roaming internationally with service providers back home for ridiculous amount and swapped half way in as other kids got them and we had no reception and had to hotspot of their ESIM. The tour place basically next door to The Rice hotel will set up and supply them and also have fantastically priced tours. We had an amazing tour guide and a great time to Mekong Delta cruise. Enjoy your stay here as well worth it and would stay again.

Decent crash spot. However we have booked room with queen bed & twin and were placed in full bed & twin (3 adults). I ended up paying for additional room and the additional room was had Queen & twin. If we were given the second room at first, we would have not gotten another room. I tried to talk to the staff, but they didn’t want to resolve it.

Narrow stairway.
Joseph, 3-night trip

6/10 Okay

Staff were very kind, courteous, and helpful. No elevator. Steep stairs to go up & down. Not good for elderly. "Open" shower area; no curtains. Everything gets wet: bathroom floor and toilet. Lots of restaurants around the hotel area. Approx 1/2 mile walk to the market place.
BENNY, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

I absolutely LOVED my stay at this hotel. ALL of the staff were incredibly nice and helpful. Every time I would pass thru the lobby, the staff would ask me if there was anything I needed…every single time. It is a small older hotel that is similar to those around. The carpet on the stairs and hallways is a bit warn. But as soon as you enter your room, the bed sheets, comforter, pillows, and towels are extremely white and clean. You are 1/2 block away from Bui Vien Street, so of course you are going to hear music until late at night, that is just common sense. But that didn’t seem to bother me at all. The breakfast is served at an actual restaurant on the corner of a busy intersection about 1 minute walk from the hotel. The breakfast is ordered off a menu and it’s nice to sit and people watch as you’re eating. I had my laundry done at a place about a minutes walk from the hotel. Also took a bus to a beach and that was only about a 5 minute walk to where I was picked up. The location is perfect. I normally don’t spend much time at all in hotel rooms, so it was perfect for me. I would absolutely stay there again. You just can’t beat the price.

繁華街そばの最高の立地で、スタッフも親切でした。朝食も近くのレストランで早朝5時から美味しい食事が選べます! 難点をあげれば、エレベータがないこと、シャワーと便器に仕切りがないこと(サンダルはあります)、換気扇がかなりやかましいこと、くらいでしょうか。 足腰が健康なうちは、また利用したいと思います。
