What a beautiful hotel, in just the right place with everything so close. The staff were very attentive. Nothing was too much trouble. Even though we were just ordinary travellers in an ordinary room, the detail to little things was amazing, right down to the beautiful china and spoons in our room. Would definately stay here again.

This was the third time we stayed here and once again, great value and amazing service. It is in a fantastic location. We stayed in the Rex Suite which is very spacious, great when you have 2 kids with you. The staff are very friendly and helpful, especially when the kids decided to lock themselves in and fell asleep!

The Rex has an incredibly convenient central location. The lobby (connected to an upscale shopping arcade) is renovated in a sleek modern style which doesn't really match the rest of the ambiance and can give a false impression at first. The rest of the decor is far more traditional and undeniably charming even if some areas are a bit over... More

Undoubtedly one of the best hotels I have stayed in. Their Vietnamese break fast is a getter. Staff are very courteous. The hotel has a long history and in the middle of the city at walkable distance from most HCM city attractions. Don't forget to try their roof top restaurant with live music.

This heritage hotel is in a great downdown location - close to the sights and sounds of HCMC. Its within walking distance to the markets at one end, and the Notre Dame Church at the other, and the main shopping district in between.

You know when you have arrived at a nice hotel when the likes of Cartier & Gucci are occupying the shops connected to the hotel. The lobby is huge and all the of the door staff are very friendly. I stayed in a suite in the new wing. It was very clean and a great size. It had separate living... More
