"Fifteen rooms divided among seven villas on the Saigon River, 15 minutes by boat from District One." Full review
Travel + Leisure "On the fringes of Ho Chi Minh City but seemingly a world away, An Lam Saigon River Private Residence feels like a serene private estate in southern Vietnam." Full review
Jetsetter "This 5-star resort is within the vicinity of Van Thanh Tourist Park and Jade Emperor Pagoda.

Afar Magazine "See Ho Chi Minh City from the water on a private charter or boat tour. This is very much a working river, and along with the great views you’ll also get a sense of daily life in Vietnam...." Full review
Mr & Mrs Smith " Just 15 minutes from Ho Chi Minh City by boat, An Lam Retreats Saigon River hotel has the pampering peace of a far more remote retreat: quiet gardens, river-view rooms, and expert Vietnamese chefs." Full review

Concierge "Famed-but-faded gem... However, there are mitigating factors: a central location... a helpful front desk—and a history that begs for a private-sector makeover."

Request third-floor deluxe rooms overlooking the Municipal Theater, which have terrific views from the narrow, New Orleansstyle wrought iron balconies.
Insight Guides "The antithesis of Ho Chi Minh City’s slick and modern downtown hotels, the charming, historic Continental has a to-die-for location."
Rough Guide "The grandly carpeted staircases, marbled floors and dark-wood doors of this venerable address’s halls and corridors convey a colonial splendour that doesn’t quite extend to its rooms."
DK Eyewitness "One of the most atmospheric hotels in Vietnam, the Continental Hotel is a sight in its own right, featuring classic French-colonial architecture, with arched windows and terraces."
Frommer's "If you want to stay here, you are most likely paying homage to the historical significance of the hotel." Full review

Request to stay in room no. 210, the corner suite where Greene resided for almost 2 years.
Lonely Planet "A classic Saigon landmark, the Continental provided the backdrop for much of the action in Graham Greene’s novel The Quiet American." Full review

"Housed in a gorgeous colonial building, the Continental oozes history and Old-World charm." Full review
Afar Magazine "Hotel Continental Saigon is conveniently located in central Ho Chi Minh City, a short walk from the main attractions." Full review
Fodor's "The unique outdoor courtyard garden and dining area dates from the late 19th century—a delightful place to relax with a drink beneath frangipani trees." Full review
Frommer's "If you're looking for a taste of historic Saigon, this is an ideal spot, as its faded grandeur fits the part perfectly...it's much cheaper than other central hotels" Full review
