Prices and buying

There is nothing to buy here. Riverside condos in District 1 and across the river in Thu Thiem are the usual options for buyers who like this location.

Renting and holiday use

Rates have ranged from roughly USD 110 to 260 a night. It is a heritage stay rather than a long-term base.

Pros and cons

  • Pros: historic 1925 building, riverfront corner on Dong Khoi, central location, classic colonial rooms
  • Cons: some dated rooms, busy riverside road, nothing for investors

Who it suits

Travellers who want colonial character and a riverside address at the heart of old Saigon.
