Clean Room, friendly staff, good breakfast and the air conditioning was working well. Great value for money.

6/10 Good

Very budget friendly and good location

If budget is important The Rice Hotel is a good choice. Staff is great, food is good and room is clean and comfortable. It does need a face lift but considering all my 3 night stay was very good.

Awesome stay, clean room, no bugs, professional and friendly staff. Good price, good food, overall excellent experience and highly recommend. Area is a bit loud but it's downtown Ho Chi Minh, so it cannot be avoided.

10/10 Exceptional

Housekeeping daily and great customer service. Cheap and in a fantastic location for everything. Would highly recommend 😁
Sally Ann, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Lovely place to stay and it was very central. That said, because it was so central to the nightlife you could also hear the street life until late. Overall I would recommend staying here but just be aware of the noise late at night.

Great spot for backpackers

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

Bethany, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

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.
Gary, 9-night trip

8/10 Very good

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.

Chan, 21-night trip

6/10 Good

The room was ok but very basic looking. Not a big fan of the shower being very close to the toilet. They would only provide very small bottles of shower gel. When I asked for more they only gave one more. They tried to give a reason why only one but due to language barrier I couldn't understand. The breakfast was tasty but it only consisted of one meal and one drink (not good if you need lots of caffeine in the morning). Much prefer a buffet. No views of the city. The staff were nice and I paid a little extra to check out at 6pm which was very helpful. The main reason to stay here is the location. It has many bars, restaurants and shops very close by.

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.

Peter, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

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.
Peter, 19-night trip

8/10 Very good

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.

I stayed in Deluxe Triple Room with 1 Bedroom, Non Smoking, City View. The room was spacious. Staffs were very professional, nice and helpful...

Very good…
Bud, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

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.

Narrow stairway.
Joseph, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

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.
Martina, 1-night trip

Had to climb stair case not good for the bad knees. Sorry but service is great. Thank you.
Juan, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

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.
