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.
Sheraton Saigon Hotel & Towers boasts 472 spacious rooms, studios and suites designed for comfort and style with personalized service and convenient amenities.
