Definately will return
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 7/8/07
I just returned from a 23 day trip around Vietnam. I spent quite a few days in Saigon (HCMC) and only one of them was spent at the Saigon Star.
It is a government run hotel, but it is definately a value for the dollar. You can negociate a decent price, and the place may look a little old, but it is in excellent shape.
The staff are very friendly, and the massage and steam rooms are first rate.
The lounge has karaoke, but it's a little past my taste - the city park is just across the street - be careful crossing the streets in Saigon - thousands of motor cycles and very few traffic controls.
I would definately go back.
