The 388-room Hotel Nikko Saigon is an upscale property in Ho Chi Minh City's bustling District 1. It's connected to a shopping mall, and while there are shops and businesses nearby, the city's major sights will require a drive or shuttle ride to reach. Rooms are contemporary, with a Zen-like aesthetic. Features include large flat-screen TVs and marble bathrooms, and rooms on the 23rd floor have exceptional city views. Guests rave about the expansive breakfast buffet, and there's also a fine-dining restaurant and lobby lounge. The events space is popular for business gatherings, and the hotel has a pool, spa, and modern fitness center. As an alternative, Lotte Legend Hotel Saigon has similar features and is closer to tourist attractions, but its rooms are far less handsome.

The nine-room Cinnamon Hotel Saigon is a two-and-a-half-pearl budget hotel centrally located in Ho Chi Minh City's District 1, within walking distance of shops, cafes, and attractions. It's a spotless little property, with modern and spacious rooms with just a few local accents. Amenities include air-conditioning, free Wi-Fi, flat-screen TVs, and minibars. Rooms on the front of the hotel have balconies that look out onto the street and the city -- they're great for people-watching. This hotel is frequently sold out, so travelers looking to stay here will need to book well ahead. As an alternative, Cat Huy Hotel is a solid budget boutique option located close to major attractions. It doesn't have quite the same charm as the Cinnamon Hotel, but rates will be lower.

Housed in a very narrow building opposite Ben Tranh Market, this three-pearl boutique hotel has a downtown location that’s convenient for both business and leisure travelers, plus 21 gracious guest rooms that recall the city’s colonial past without sacrificing contemporary comforts. All include air-conditioning, flat-screen TVs, minibars, docking stations, coffeemakers and, in the case of Executive Deluxe Rooms, petite balconies. But, size-wise, most are a tight squeeze, and ones that face the front are prone to pick up noise from the busy street below. In terms of features, the Anpha has an elegant restaurant with a rooftop terrace (where breakfast is served at no extra charge), along with a tour desk, a small business center, and free Wi-Fi throughout. However, if on-site amenities are high on your must-have list, you’d be better off booking the mid-range Bong Sen Hotel Saigon instead: this nearby property comes with three eateries, a small spa and fitness room, as well as assorted meeting spaces.

Previously called the Eden Saigon Hotel, the 129-room EdenStar Saigon Hotel is an upper-middle-range property centrally located in District 1 and within walking distance of most everything. It's also close to a bus stop for getting to spots farther afield. Rooms are attractive and modern, and come with flat-screen TVs, minibars, and air-conditioning. Some have jetted tubs in bathrooms and outstanding city views, but others face the building next door. The rooftop pool with panoramic city views is a highlight here, and the restaurant and bars also get good marks. Other features include a spa, fitness center, and nice event spaces. Travelers can also consider the Palace Hotel Saigon, which has similar features and lower rates, but more basic rooms with less style.

The 50-room Duc Vuong Hotel is a budget hotel located at the end of Pham Ngu Lao, a popular backpacker street in bustling District 1. It's within walking distance of numerous cafes, bars, and shops, and many major attractions can be reached on foot or by a short taxi ride. Some of its rooms lack windows, but they are all clean and pleasant, with flat-screen TVs, electric kettles, welcome snacks, and en-suite bathrooms with separate showers. The rooftop bar and restaurant with city views is a favorite with travelers from across the city, and the hotel's expansive free breakfast buffet is a major plus. The Beautiful Saigon 3 Hotel is a similar well-located budget property, but it doesn't have a restaurant or bar and rates can be higher.

Despite its name, the 20-room Elegant Inn is really just a basic budget hotel with a solid location just off the popular backpackers' street in District 1. Numerous shops, bars, and restaurants are a short walk away, and most major attractions can be reached via a short car ride. Rooms are simple, but well-equipped, with en-suite bathrooms, flat-screen TVs, mini-fridges, and air-conditioning. Breakfast is included in some rates -- both Western and Vietnamese options are well-liked -- and there's a computer in the lobby that guests can use. Another budget option in the area is the the Vy Khanh Guesthouse. It has similar rates, but only six rooms and breakfast is not served.

For budget travelers who want a hotel with a contemporary design, the two-pearl Town House 50 Hotel is a good pick. There’s a homey vibe found both in the blue and white decor throughout the property and in free perks like Wi-Fi and a local and international breakfast buffet. Dorm rooms are tight on space but have air-conditioning and attached bathrooms. For something a bit larger, the private rooms offer flat-screen TVs and (in some) mini-fridges. While rooms lack kettles and some reportedly have mold in the bathrooms, for the price and location, it’s a pretty good deal. The nearby Cinnamon Hotel Saigon is a great alternative with spacious rooms with kettles and a free a la carte breakfast.

The luxury Sheraton Saigon Hotel & Towers maintains the Sheraton brand’s usual high standards, though it lacks local character for the central Dong Khoi Street location in bustling District 1. Contemporary public areas are sharp and elegant. Three restaurants include Western-style fine dining and Chinese cuisine; the 23rd-floor rooftop bar has impressive city views and a nightly DJ. The outdoor pool, modern gym, and Asian-style spa are all popular, and there are extensive business facilities. Grand Tower Rooms are the most modern accommodations, though all units are spacious and have particularly big bathrooms. Look out for hefty charges for unreliable in-room Wi-Fi and note that the breakfast buffet isn't included in all rates. The four-pearl Liberty Central Saigon Riverside Hotel is also conveniently located in District 1, and has free Wi-Fi and a gorgeous rooftop infinity pool.

First opened in 1925, the four-pearl Hotel Majestic Saigon is one of Ho Chi Minh City's grande dames. Chandeliers, wood, marble, and arched windows with stained glass make for a stately feel in the lobby, evoking the bygone colonial era. Rooms are classic and elegant, with polished hardwood floors, period furniture, rotary phones, and impressive marble bathrooms -- but guests have complained that many units are past their prime, and some may find the style a little stodgy. There is a small outdoor pool and bright fitness center on-site. The location within walking distance of many major attractions is a big plus, and the views of Saigon River from the rooftop bar are hard to beat. Wi-Fi is free throughout. It’s worth comparing prices at Grand Hotel Saigon (which features a similar style and better rates) and the luxurious Caravelle Hotel that is also steeped in history, but has a more modern feel and decor.
