An Lam Saigon River, Ho Chi Minh City Vietnam, Ho Chi Minh City and The South

Sitting along the Saigon River, this stunning hotel is only 25 minutes from downtown Saigon by speedboat. Here you'll find 19 large, individually designed rooms, situated in 7 traditional converted houses.

Each room is exclusively designed with a contemporary, yet Vietnamese feel, and features all the mod con's you'd expect of a luxury property. The spacious bathrooms feature rain showers, huge stone bathtubs and large vanity areas - many extend inside and outside. In most of the guest rooms you'll also find a secluded private pool, some big enough to do laps.

There is a main pool which is surrounded by a large sala area and lush tropical gardens, and you can eat snacks at the pool bar, have an evening cocktail, or eat at either the indoor and outdoor restaurants. This isn't the sort of hotel where you go out for dinner, you'll eat most of your meals here. The hotel has its own private spa situated in peaceful gardens.

Only 25 minutes by speedboat from the centre of Saigon, and even better, only 45 mins by boat from Cu Chi tunnels - you can really use this hotel as an escapism or base in Saigon.

We feel best to combine with a stay in the city centre, and then come here either before or after to unwind. You'll also get to see great local river life, which means you don’t necessarily have to visit the Mekong Delta.
