Find hotels in Hien Luong Bridge-17th Parallel

It was a very nice stay. I would definitely recommend it. The hotel is pretty new, huge, good located, nice staff, amazing breakfast, and has modern rooms. It has everything what you expect for an 4 star hotel, even for European standards. But unfortunately the hotel is located in a small city and thus is pretty lifeless, which explains the cheap price. Unfortunately due to that the pool was not heated and the jacuzzi was empty.

The Saigon Dong Ha Hotel is the best hotel in Dong Ha, and will truly be a 4-star hotel (in any country) once the pool has water in it, the jacuzzi is operational, and the outer landscaping is finished. The hotel is only 1 year old so this is understandable, and acceptable since the rooms, V.I.P. lounge on 8th fl., and restaurant in lobby are so clean, and nice. Honestly, the most comfortable bed that I have ever slept in. If you ask the SUPER FRIENDLY staff for anything 9 out of 10 times they will not understand you. However, there is excellent English speaking staff available, you just have to know who to ask for. As of 5/2013 that is: Front Desk staffs "Huyen", and "Mr. Vinh", as well as one man in the restaurant (forgot his name). The General Managers name is also Mr. Vinh (no relation) and he is also extremely helpful, and has good English skills. I came to Dong Ha specifically to tour Khe Sanh, "The Rockpile", and old DMZ area. Saigon Dong Ha Hotel is absolutely the premiere launching point and location for these tours. I rented the hotel's Ford Everest (with driver Mr. Ny, and F.D. Staff Mr. Vinh for interpreter) for $55 dollars for a 6 hour trip over jungle terrain through rivers, and into remote villages; OUTSTANDING! If you come to Dong Ha and are Not a scroungy backpacker, and your willing to pony up a few extra bucks, this is sooooo obviously the only place to stay in Dong Ha!

Only problem was traffic noise but everything else was great. The Staff, were particularly helpful with everything, especially the girls at the reception. Clean, excellent large rooms with good TV and bathrooms and large beds. Just take some earplugs as the trucks blast their horns. I think this would affect all hotels in Dong Ha. Great value hotel and thanks again to the beautiful staff.
