Elios Hotel

Excellent Location and Great Value I recently stayed at Elios Hotel in Hồ Chí Minh City and had a very pleasant experience. The hotel is in a fantastic location—right in the heart of District 1. It’s super easy to access everything you might need during your stay. There are plenty of local food options, cafes, markets, and tourist attractions within walking distance. Transportation is also very convenient, whether you're using taxis, Grab, or public buses. The rooms are clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. They’re not overly luxurious, but if you’re spending most of your time exploring the city rather than staying in, they’re more than sufficient. What really stood out to me was the breakfast. For the price, the food range is surprisingly good. They offer a mix of local Vietnamese dishes and Western options, and the quality was consistently fresh and tasty throughout my stay. Considering the location, service, and amenities, I think Elios Hotel offers excellent value for money. It’s a great choice for travelers who want comfort and convenience without paying luxury prices. Would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Hồ Chí Minh City, especially first-timers looking for a well-placed base to explore from.

I really liked this place. Firstly it was cheap and the rooms were large. But what I really liked is the service. When it rained the staff downstairs offered us umbrellas. When our vans arrived for transfers the hotel staff would always help load our bags onto our cars. The cleaning staff were super friendly too. The breakfast restaurant has an amazing view of the city over the park. The location is great with everything you need downstairs like fast food, convenience stores, there's also a really good nail salon tucked away nearby. Bui vien walking Street is really close but not too close that it's noisy. Lots of street food. There's also a huge park Infront of the hotel which is rare and quite nice for a break in this busy city. I would stay here again.

The hotel has an excellent location and breakfast. The room was well furnished and clean for a budget property, though some of the bathroom fittings were a little rusted. They did upgrade my room and store my luggage for a long time. The main reason I dont recommend are as follows:|- When I went into the first room I was allotted, I saw a lizard on the wall which to me was horrifying. The receptionist did change the room, but when I insisted she get the room checked, she said that there was no lizard in the first room, which was a lie. One of the staff members was nice enough to come and check the new room I was given, it was discovered that a window in the bathroom was kept open and so bugs and lizards could get in. This was sheer negligence.|- The safes were working inconsistently in both the rooms I booked and there were clear low battery signs. The maintainence person refused to change the batteries and we had to really push for this simple step. He actually had the batteries in his pocket. The hotel has a notice asking people to use the safe, but they have clearly not checked the safe batteries before issuing rooms to guests. The safes in both rooms worked fine once the batteries were changed.|- The hotel asks for guests to leave room keys at the reception, which I did. One day the receptionist argued for 7-8 minutes that my key was not with them, which was a blatant lie. After we kept insisting, they gave me my key and said it was in the section for another floor. It was late at night and most people would have taken their keys and gone to their rooms, it could not be so difficult to search the remaining keys. It was a clear scam to issue a new key and charge USD 20 for it.|Given the poor staff attitude which hampered our stay, I will not recommend this hotel. The city is compact and grab cars are cheap and readily available, one can look at a slightly less convenient location and get a hotel where argument is not necessary.

The room was great value for the amount we paid. I feel the location is in the middle of the city. Food could use some more options but no complains still. Staff are very helpful and professional. Special thanks to Tracy for assisting us with our tours and answering to all of our doubts.

The hotel greeting was lovely and the staff beautiful. The rooms are a little above average but the bed was a little uncomfortable. Other than that. I really don’t have any complaints. The breakfast was great. Best I’ve had in Vietnam.|However, some of my party had issues with their shower their hot water and such so maybe it wasn’t such a good holiday for them just damp at the fact that I really don’t like Ho Chi Minh City. It’s not for me but that doesn’t mean to say that the hotel shouldn’t get a good review. Give it’s 4

We stay here for 5 days. The room is clean. They clean it everyday and change the sheets daily. The location is best. Next of our hotel is burger kings, a lot of sevels nearby. Well my favourite part is the breakfast. 10/10. All of the food that I tried is absolutely delicious. Recommended at all. Thank you Elios.

Hotel bang opp to a wonderful park. Hotel is renovated to give better comfort to customers. Breakfast spread was. Good and at the top floor. U will njoy the city view from there. Staff was polite and humble. At walking distance e you will have 7-11 and cafes.

Pham Ngu Lao is a great base for exploring Saigon. My hotel was clean and affordable, but I needed laundry mid-trip. A local recommended Dan’s Wash & Stay nearby – a self-service laundry at 185/10 Pham Ngu Lao, open all day and night. It was only 30K per load, and machines were modern and easy to use. Such a helpful place for travelers.
