The Alcove Library Hotel: Popular Hipster Hotel in Saigon

Elegant & Exquisite Hotel Lobby

Living in the Library! 10min Drive Away from the Airport

Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam

Spotlights

• Beautiful Lobby w/ Huge Bookshelves: #InstagramWorthy
• Affordable Room Prices (they’ve already been economical before pandemic)
• 10min Driving Distance to The Airport
• Tasty à la carte Local Deli Breakfast
• Extremely Quiet Neighborhood
• Spacious Room

Pity

• The Bathroom water pressure was extremely low. I didn’t enjoy the shower.
• The in-room lighting was relatively dim at night due to yellow tones.
• Located in a narrow alley, some drivers couldn’t find it.
• No free bottled water provided.
• If the Stay & Dine Package was only limited for lunchtime, the hotel should have informed me first. I didn’t have time to have lunches during my stay and wasted the promotion package.
