Considered the focal point of Vietnamese culture and Vietnam’s economic powerhouse, HCMC boasts a range of hotels in diverse styles, designs and levels. The designs and styles can be divided into two architectural types: French colonial and modern.
Regarding French colonial, we must mention some typical yet striking hotels such as Rex, Majestic, Riverside and Continental. The Rex Hotel is thought to have originally opened as a French garage in the early 20th century and for over 80 years has been a city landmark, as well as a witness to the ups and downs of the city’s history.
Positioned in the heart of the city, near City Hall, the five-star hotel features a blend of the traditional charm of colonial architecture and post-modern renovations. It has a range of luxury facilities and international standard services, 289 uniquely designed guestrooms, function & meeting rooms ideal for weddings and events, the La Cochinchine Spa, six in-house restaurants and a cafe.
Built in 1925, the 175-room Majestic Saigon Hotel is also a historical landmark of stunning French colonial design and it includes a panoramic view of the Saigon River. Despite several renovations, the hotel retains its original old world charm and impeccable elegance all reflecting classic French colonial architecture. The Continental Hotel Saigon is the city’s oldest and has been a central Saigon landmark for well over a century. The Continental embraces the rich character and charm of original French colonial architecture and has remained virtually unchanged since opening in 1880. The luxurious and romantic elegance extends to 86 spacious guest-rooms of five types and restaurants and bars serving both traditional Vietnamese and European food.
Different from French colonial architecture, Caravelle, Legend and Sheraton are striking representatives of modern decor and share the warm combination of luxury and coziness. The Caravelle Hotel prides itself on traditional refinement in an ambiance that is welcoming and at the same time offers luxurious modern living in sophisticated and understated surroundings that include splendid chandeliers and perfect symmetry.
