Read it your way

Hôtel Des Arts Saigon is a boutique luxury hotel in central Ho Chi Minh City featuring 168 art deco rooms and a popular rooftop pool. Guests regularly praise the extensive breakfast spread at Saigon Kitchen and comfortable beds dressed in Egyptian cotton sheets. However, entry-level rooms are compact at 30 square meters, and some layouts use a curtain instead of a solid bathroom door. Noise from a neighboring rooftop club can also disrupt guests staying on the highest floors. 1911238

  • My sleep quality at the hotel was quite good, largely due to the fact that Hôtel des Arts Saigon - MGallery is a newly built property, rather than a conversion of an older building. As a result, the noise insulation is well-designed, and I never found it to be overly noisy during my stay. 26
  • Oh! That's right! It can be a bit noisy if you are on the top floor or two because there is a rooftop club the building over. 12

  • Hotel des Arts Saigon offers excellent value for money within Ho Chi Minh City's luxury boutique hotel segment. With room rates typically around S$250 per night, I believe the hotel strikes an outstanding balance between price, quality and overall experience. 23

Location28 mentions
  • District 3 sits just west of the tourist-heavy District 1 core, close enough to walk to Notre-Dame Cathedral, the Opera House, and the Central Post Office, but with quieter, tree-lined streets and stronger local coffee shops. You get the landmark access without staying inside the busiest blocks. 11
  • Hotel Des Arts Saigon has a good location-not as great as the Park Hyatt or Caravelle, which are right in the core. 3
  • Both are really great! The trade offs are minimal (location is better for M Gallery but rooms a bit nicer at Mai House). 12
  • With that said MGallery may be a little better in terms of having a better location. 12
  • The Hotel des Arts Saigon - MGallery Collection is an award-winning luxury hotel that sits in a fabulous location in the heart of Ho Chi Minh City Southern Vietnam. 5

  • The hotel is also an excellent choice for first-time visitors to Ho Chi Minh City. Although officially located in District 3, it sits just outside the busiest part of District 1, giving guests easy access to the city's main attractions while offering a quieter environment to return to each evening. 23
  • Conveniently located in the city centre, Hotel Des Arts Saigon is only 2 minutes away from the main tourist attractions, popular bars, local cafes, shopping centres and entertainment complexes. 9
  • The trade offs are minimal (location is better for M Gallery but rooms a bit nicer at Mai House). 12
  • The hotel is located in an ideal spot, close to many attractions and not far from the airport. 17

  • The hotel's central location made it easy for us to explore the city and try out different restaurants nearby. 17

  • The hotel is conveniently located in the center of the city, within walking distance of the war museum, local bars, restaurants, and shops. 17
  • Convenient location in the city centre 8

  • Great value for a luxury five-star hotel, especially for Accor Live Limitless members 23
  • The spa experience was underwhelming and overpriced compared to local options. 17

  • The Hôtel des Arts Saigon - MGallery is typically the most expensive Accor property in Ho Chi Minh City, often priced even higher than the Sofitel Saigon Plaza. 26

  • would recommend hotel des arts. if you have amex plat you can also get 200$ hotel credit + 100$ in dining. They got the best ayce seafood brunch in town 7
  • For lunch, a poolside croque monsieur at Social Club Rooftop Bar is just the ticket. 19

  • Guided by two-MICHELIN-starred Chef Kirk Westaway, the restaurant reimagines contemporary British cuisine, delivering a dining experience as refined as its setting. 22

  • The suite was incredibly grand with lots of gorgeous patterns and gold accents. 16
  • Comments Section DowCanup • 2y ago I've stayed in most of these but my favorite is the Myst Dong Khoi. It's a five star boutique hotel that's modern but done in an antique vintage Vietnam style. It's not just a cookie cutter hotel room-gives you a feel of old Vietnam. 7
  • The television is smartly placed from the ceiling, so there is a lot more space to walk about. This is quite intelligent as the room is not the largest, and fitting a television cabinet will make the room a lot more cluttered. 8
  • One of the room's greatest strengths is its open-concept layout. Although the room is not exceptionally large, the clever design makes it feel noticeably more spacious than the actual floor area suggests. 23
  • Additionally, the panoramic views of the cityscape from my room added an extra touch of magic to my stay. 24
  • The room retained its luxurious boutique feel, with tasteful furnishings, warm lighting and a timeless design that still felt every bit as classy as I remembered. 23

  • During our visit to the Hotel des Arts Saigon, we had the pleasure of staying in the Executive Studio Suite and can highly recommend a stay in this beautiful room. 5
  • The work desk was spacious and paired with a genuinely comfortable chair, making it an enjoyable place to sit for extended periods. 23
  • The bathroom is situated directly behind the bedroom and is separated by a curtain rather than a traditional door. While this design choice contributes to the room's contemporary and open-concept aesthetic, it may not be ideal for guests who prefer more privacy. 26
  • And here there's also an outside terrace where you can enjoy and relax. On camera210:46
  • For those who need to rest, a comfortable armchair in the corner of the room is perfect for gazing out the window and watching television. 8
