Violet Star Hotel and Spa

Fast Wi-Fi, cold air conditioning, hot shower, comfortable mattress, friendly reception. Sometimes that's all a traveler really needs.

Step out the door -> endless bars, clubs, street food, and music. Step into the room -> quiet, cool AC, soft bed. What more could you ask for?

Let’s be real: this is right off Bui Vien, so expect a lively street outside. However, the sound isolation inside the room is surprisingly acceptable. The mattress is soft, the bathroom tidy, and for this price point in central Saigon, you genuinely cannot complain.

The beds were very spacious and comfortable and there are lockers and a terrace area

the dorm was on the 4th floor, no elevator and when I arrived he told me to just head up to the 4th floor I wasn’t helped with bags. The location is right in the middle of walking street so be wary of that for the noise. The bathrooms are Ok but the showers are right over the toilets. There’s no luggage room to put bags and when I asked to leave my smaller bag behind reception which included my passport and electronics he said he couldn’t allow that unless he took a video of me and my bag showing everything I had inside of it incase I was to falsely accuse him of stealing something so I had to carry a heavy bag round with for a few hours due to no secure place to leave my bag. The door to the dorm also doesn’t lock there is no key to get into the dorm so I wouldn’t stay again due to the safety issues
