You can enjoy all the city has to offer within walking distance if you choose this hotel. Breakfast is great also with a good view of the french-inspired buildings. Wifi is free almost everywhere in the hotel. Concierge was very helpful in guiding us where to go shopping and gave us umbrellas when it started raining.

The Caravelle is a lovely hotel in a great central location. The staff are fantastic - very accommodating. On arrival we were offered a $65 per night upgrade - incl breakfast (about 100 options!), and wine and canapes in the signature lounge. We took this up as we recieved a good deal on the room (40% off) and it was... More

This luxury hotel had great service, great rooms, great food and a great spa! We had no fault with this hotel and stayed here for 3 nights! It was the first stop on a 9 day trip of Vietnam and it was a great start! Check in was seamless, and our room was beautiful with views of the entire city!... More

Amazing location downtown, surrounded by plenty of food and high end shopping centres. Easy walking distance to almost everything. Staff are abundant and very helpful. Breakfast buffet is one of the best I have ever had, you want to be very hungry cause at like $22USD each its pretty pricey considering you are surrounded by options, you can definitely get... More

Caravelle was a solid hotel for our two night stay in HCM. My husband and I arrived after midnight at SGN airport so we arranged for the hotel to have a car transfer pick us up. So glad we did bc it was real late so the streets were a bit dead plus we heard and read about the sketchy... More

The. Historic wing was a joy to stay in. The balcony provided an excellent view of the opera and watching all the bikes and cars driving in their own special way THe buffets at all three meals were extraordinary. The final bit of excellence was the staff. The manager and concierge were extremely helpful no matter how often I asked... More

This was our first trip to Ho Chi Minh so we didn't have a clue about hotels, areas etc. We really got it right by choosing this hotel. This is the first luxury hotel in Ho Chi Minh, the Caravelle set the bench mark and the others followed. It is right in the middle of "District 1" which is the... More

We recently visited Ho Chi Minh City while taking a cruise from Hong Kong to Singapore. The trip included an overnight stay in Ho Chi Minh City and we had the pleasure of staying at the Caravelle Hotel. The location could not have been better because it is in the heart of downtown and within walking distance of many attractions... More

The Caravelle was excellent. Our room was spacious with a great city view, the staff were friendly and attentive, the location was convenient and the restaurants and bars were great. The view from the rooftop bar was amazing. We'd definitely come back when in HCMC again.
