We stayed here for a week visiting family in ho chi minh. The room was lovely and spacious and had everything we needed! It was serviced daily by a lovely staff member who bought fresh water/ towels and toilet roll and offered to clean but the room was that spacious it didn't really get messy! The Pool area was beautiful with clean towels available and lots of sunbeds. It's only a ten minute walk to the bars and 5 minutes to the shops but there is a small shop on site for water and the girl in the shop was lovely and helpful. Getting taxis was really easy and it was about a 15 minute taxi ride to district one. We would definitely stay here again if we visit ho chi minh in the future!

We loved everything about this place! One small recommendation would be chairs on the balcony as the chairs inside were a bit heavy and bulky to drag outside.

It is true that there are in the city much more modern and luxurious residences, but this a very rare green oasis in the city. You can enjoy a natural, quiet and relaxing athmosphere, where you're free to walk or bycicle. Also, metro station is very close. The view on the river is amazing and the use of facilities, like pool, gym and sport facilities is very easy. The laundry service is exceptional, and open almost all day, for free. The whole staff is extremely friendly and helpful in anything. The rooms, although a bit old fashioned, are big, clean, and in very good conditions.

The place is starting to show the years, but it has also huge pluses, compared to other more modern structures.

We had a wonderful stay at Riverside Apartments in District 2, Ho Chi Minh City. The location was fantastic—close enough to the city centre but in a peaceful area. There was so much we loved about our stay: - The gym was well-equipped, and having a spa onsite was a real treat. - The free access to washing machines and tumble dryers was a godsend when travelling with two small children. - The playground for children and the great pool area (including a smaller kids' pool) was perfect for our family. - The staff were amazing and accommodating, especially when we needed a late checkout. - The location was ideal, with plenty of shops, bars, and restaurants within walking distance. We highly recommend visiting the local Annam store, which has everything you could ever need—from freshly baked bread to sushi-grade fish, an excellent wine selection, and delicious rotisserie-roasted chickens. - The community feel was fantastic, with lots of expat families staying at the apartments. Our children loved making friends and playing in the pool every day. - The free boat service into the city was a brilliant addition—it was such a fun activity for the kids and elevated our experience. We felt so at home here so quickly. Riverside Apartments provides the perfect combination of comfort, convenience, and a family-friendly environment. We would recommend it and will be back if we travel to Vietnam again.

While the apartments are a little dated, everything was of a high standard and worked perfectly, so it didn’t impact our enjoyment at all. We stayed in three separate apartments during our time there as we kept extending and changing our plans. What we loved was that each apartment had the same layout, comfy beds, and all the same amenities, so we always knew exactly what to expect. It made everything so easy and stress-free!

The location with the free boat transfer to the city was such a bonus. It was near to restaurants. Nice pool and comfy sun beds. Healthy choice of breakfast food in restaurant with a lovely view of the river. Large one bedroom apartment that was exceptionally clean.

The shower was in the bath and not really designed for tall Europeans. It also seemed to flood the floor and we couldn’t work out how it was happening. But everything else was perfect for us and wouldn’t let that stop us from stopping here again in the future.

Excellent outdoor facilities. Pool, restaurant, spa (massage was amazing. One of the best I have ever experienced.) gym, fitness and location. I would really recommend Riverside. The water taxi service was an additional surprise and most welcome. The little supermarket was lovely and the girls there are delightful. Staff are extremely helpful and friendly.

Mattress in the bedroom and pillows. The mattress was too firm for me but that is a personal issue and I prefer soft feather pillows. Perhaps the mattress could have a thick topper? I will buy some pillows when I return. I will return, most definitely!

I love the location! The Riverside is a quiet oasis in District 2. The complex is where a lot of long term residents live so one doesn’t feel like it’s a hotel. You see lots of families and kids. I really love the beautiful tropical grounds surrounding the property and the big pool. It’s perfect to get your laps in after a long day running around the city. The restaurant is excellent and the people who work there are very nice. I especially enjoyed the setting alongside the Saigon river. Another little bonus is the water taxi and bus service to downtown, so you don’t need to spend as much in taxis. The Riverside also has free laundry machines if you don’t mind doing your own laundry!

The decor of the rooms is getting a bit dated. If I ran the place, I’d freshen them up and redecorate. That said, the beds are comfy and I slept very well. Note that the electrical outlets are possibly the British version. The Riverside provides adapters

Easy check in, great location rite on river.

1. Had to leave passport at desk during check in or give a hug/really big deposit, beings how it is illegal in Vietnam for any tourist not to have passport on them at all times while out in public it leaves a guest few options! 2. The price, yes it is a comfortable place but this is not a 5☆ star hotel with full services and yet you still charge 5☆ pricing.

It is a well maintained property. The staff was very responsive and always friendly. Well located with lots of nice cafes and restaurants close by.

The electric plugs are old and the adapters provided did not work. The sofa needs to be cleaned and upholstered. A chair or two in the balcony should be provided. There were no dish cloths in the kitchen.

The accommodation was a lot better than expected with everything within walking distance. The attended swimming pool was a pleasant surprise. The on-site restaurant was very good even though the menu seemed to have been curtailed a bit. The courtesy bus into the city centre was excellent as was the boat.

Maybe some sort of guide to the immediate area with locations of ATMs, good restaurants and any other places of interest to the visitor.

Riverside Serviced Apartments are a wonderful peaceful oasis, in an amazing but hectic city. Nice size apartment. Cleaned daily. Fresh water and towels always. Quiet pool with adjoining bar. We would recommend highly as a base to explore Siagon.
