Exceptional”

Price was reasonable. The room/bathroom was well maintained, clean and tidy, and it fits us good. Lots of TV channels to view (but we don't care much). Stable wifi connection on each floor. Free breakfast provided also not that bad. Only that the entrance to the hotel is through a back alley. Location wise, very good location. Easy to find nearby convenient stores, restaurants, bars, tourist spots, etc. Though near to main street/bars, we can sleep well in our room. We do lots of walking around to places of interest like Ben Thanh, Notre Dame Cathedral, Saigon Post Office, and etc. Overall, we love our stay here.

One of the best hotel in HCMC”

Everythings is good. Staffs are accomodating. Location is near the tourists spots. The only thing that bothered me is the window without curtain. Hope they could do something about it. Anyways, i’ll still give them a good rating cause they exceeded what I’ve expected. Good hotel for a low price with good breakfast served every morning.

Thank you!”

The location was really great. The staff were kind and helpful. The breakfast was fine. The room we stayed in was quiet despite being near the busy street. There are a lot of places nearby to buy food. We will definitely stay again when we come back to Saigon. Thank you so much 🙂

Great little boutique hotel”

Fantastic boutique hotel in the perfect location. A short walk to the main area with bars and restaurants but completely silent at night. Offered a good buffet breakfast each morning. The room was a little small and lacked a window so there is no natural light but understandable for the price and location. Room is very clean and has a comfy bed, nice bathroom and good amenities. Well recommended.

Galaxy was perfect refuge in the craziness of District 1”

Owner and staff was very kind and extremely helpful. Room was very clean and had every necessary amenity. Felt like our home away from home. Breakfast was exceptional! Was also very quiet for being so close to the busy street. This hotel was our favorite part of Ho Chi Minh City. Thank you very much Galaxy Hotel.

Value for money and Cleanliness”

Stayed for 4 nights in an individual single room. Friendly female receptionist. Pros: The cleanliness is beyond my expectation which is good. The satellite TV is clear and have a lot of shows available. However, no mini-fridge till I requested for it and it is quite dirty. Toilet is well maintained. Location is very near Bui Vien street, therefore it is ideal if you wish to stay near there. Although it is a street away, no music could be heard while in hostel when sleeping. Cons: Like other reviewers mentioned, the entrance to the hostel is in a back alley. If you like shopping, it will be quite a walking distance to Ben Thanh, Saigon Centre etc (20 mins-30mins). A nearby sense market is available though. Neutral: Breakfast is very simple, Banh Mi bread and simple egg with drinks... no complains for the price paid. Conclusion: If you a budget traveller and prefer to stay near Bui Vien... it is a value for money hostel where you can sleep peacefully at night.

Good boutique hotel nearby Bui Vien street”

Although it has 1 stars, this seems to be a hotel which have seen more stars though. Very good location, Bui Vien street can be heard only moderately. Great amenities, basic breakfast, but keycard did not work. Got the master key from reception which may have opened all the doors, this felt kinda weird.

Very nice and comfortable ”

We find everything almost perfect, maybe because of our bad experience in bangkok on our 8day indochina trip. Breakfast is nice just perfect for our taste but don't expect a 3-5 star hotel kind of spread. Other reviews complain about the space but it just right for the price, you don't go to hcmc to stay all day in the hotel. Very quiet despite being near bui vien st.
