I have been reading the reviews. Seems really good. Any comments appreciated. Location breakfast etc. How long to walk to Ben Tahn Market restaurants in the ares.
Bich Duyen Hotel
Ben Thanh Mkt is 5 minutes away - plenty restaurants in area, but best ones some distance. You will enjoy the Bich because of outstanding service by Chanh - a real bargain in Saigon.
Bich Duyen Hotel
Thanks for your comments. Are rooms modern and clean and safe.
I have found Chanh from Bich Duyen to be the only hotel to reply promptly to everyone of my emails.

Hi tommomelbourne
For that rate%26gt;%26gt;relatively clean and nice but do not expect 5* equivalent.
Excellent location.
Ben Tahn Market%26gt;%26gt;rip off place,expect to pay double for most things
Cheers
Thanks for your honest comments. Where would you suggest we shop for TShirts perfume etc.
Any good eating places near by.

Hi tommomelbourne
Around this hotel Bich Duyen there are few Indian restaurants,plenty of local restaurant all within walking distance.
Opposite Ben Tahn Market is the famous Pho24 noodle but do not take any taxi or Thrishaw ride around and outside this market or risk Ripped off.
Just flag down any moving taxi:::tip 1 km distance equivalent to US1, if meter ran ';hay wild';,stop the taxi immediately and get off quickly or you will be ripped off.
Have a jolly good time at HCMC
Cheers
How far a walk is Ben Tahn Market?
I believe that their is a supermarket nearby as well.

5-15 minutes walk from hotel,crazy traffic condition at HCMC.
Pedestrain'; King';,traffic will give way
Cheers
Like you i used this site and ended up staying at Bich duyen hotel. I stayed there couple weeks ago. Although I cannot compare with other hotels I found out the owner ';Chanh'; responds quickly to emails and speaks very good english. He helped me out in other ways that saved grief. The hotel is 30 second walk from busy street. I found this to be very safe. The Ben tahn market is 10 minute walk. Crossing the streets are more exciting!!
The Hotel itself is very clean. The room I had cost $18 dollars. Small compared to US standards but efficient for my travel.
I got a local map and walked in a big 360. You will cover hundreds of shops and and restaurants.
Saigon itself is a 2-3 day stay only IMHO.
Go with open mind and and trust the motorbikes when you cross the streets!!
Hi

Thanks.
