Bao Long Hotel

Bao Long Hotel is a one-star hotel in Binh Thanh, 4.4 km north-east of the city centre, with air-conditioned rooms that overlook the city and a lift in the building.

Rooms range from a 25 m² double room with a large king-size bed to a 65 m² standard quadruple room with two large beds and a balcony, so families and small groups can stay together. Every room has air conditioning, a flat-screen TV, an electric kettle and a private bathroom with free toiletries, a hairdryer and slippers.

Guests can use the 24-hour front desk, express check-in and check-out, room service, luggage storage and lockers, and the hotel has 24-hour security and daily housekeeping. Non-smoking rooms are available, free WiFi covers all areas, and reception staff speak English and Vietnamese. It is a practical base for a city stay, with a round-the-clock front desk for late arrivals.

Bao Long Hotel has two room types, and both come with air conditioning, a private bathroom and a flat-screen TV. The Double Room measures 25 m² and has one large king-size bed for two guests, with a shower, a hairdryer and slippers in the bathroom. The Standard Quadruple Room is the larger option at 65 m², with two large king-size beds for up to four adults.

Both room types look out over the city, and the quadruple room adds a balcony and a bathroom with a bath as well as a shower.

Several cafés and restaurants are within 150 m of the entrance: Món Huế is 50 m away, Bò Né Chị Xuân 100 m and Pho Hoang 150 m, and Highlands Coffee Đinh Bộ Lĩnh is among the cafés close by. The Bờ Kênh Chu Văn An canal bank, 350 m away, is a short walk along the water, so a meal or a coffee is never far.

Tan Son Nhat International Airport is 3.7 km away and Saigon Railway Station 4.7 km, both short taxi rides from the hotel. Miền Đông Bus Station (Bến Thanh) is 500 m away, so intercity coach journeys can start within a short walk. The hotel has no parking available, so guests who drive should plan for a drop-off at the door, and a taxi or ride-hailing car is the practical option for the airport and the station.

For sightseeing, the Vietnam History Museum is 2.6 km away, a national museum of Vietnamese history, and the War Remnants Museum is 3.9 km away, a museum documenting the Vietnam War in District 3.
