This is the one! We have stayed at Christina's multiple times and will keep coming back. Thu and his staff are amazing. You are welcomed and cared for like a true guest each and every day of your stay.

Location: Can't beat it! It is a central location yet down an alley just enough to enjoy a quiet stay. Local transportation (i.e. Grab) were able to easily find us, and quickly. At the end of the alley (across street and to the right) is a Circle K which is great for snacks and drinks.

Room: The room is spacious, clean, and came with extra touches that make all the difference. There is a fridge/freezer that is stocked with a few drinks at reasonable prices. There is a water bottle that you can fill up with filtered water just outside the rooms door. This is a life saver from carrying heavy water from the Circle K. The balcony gives perfect views and space to watch the activities in the alley. The bathroom has shampoo and body wash which is very convenient. Laundry service is provided at a very reasonable suggested tipping fee. Service is usually same day. The staff will check in to see if/when you will like cleaning service too.

Joi Cafe: The addition of the Joi Factory (cafe) downstairs brought our stay to the next level. The food is delicious and perfect for a quiet escape any time of day. The staff are kind and the service is fast. There is seating on the second level which is open and inviting.

The easiest decision to book. Just do it and thank yourself later.

We chose Christina’s place because of the vegetarian cafe downstairs. Even though the stay is right on top of a cafe, it was quiet. Christina’s place is very closed by to shops, entertainment, and famous places in Saigon. It’s clean and neat. We didn’t cook but it has basic cooking utensils. There’s regular maintenance schedule and laundry comes with additional fee of about $2. Staff is super friendly. Cafe downstairs also has a large menu. We were lucky to bump into an open mic night. The atmosphere was great. You can follow Joi Factory on Facebook to see when they have open mic. We liked it so much that we booked an additional night. Definitely would recommend.

Christina's hotel & café is a boutique hotel that puts you in the heart of district 1 in ho chi minh city.

The rooms are clean and updated, air-conditioning units are quite, so your room stays at a perfect comfortable temperature.

They offer laundry service, response time to messages is quick. The café, located at the entrance of Christina's is an amazing eatery of local dishes offered as vegan and vegetarian. Variety of beverages, quiet calm sitting areas where local professionals come to relax, work, meet and enjoy. Music is always playing with familiar songs from the west, that are chill.

If you want to feel like a local and be in the heart of the center of district 1 in ho chi minh city, Christina's Hotel & Café is where you want to be.

It was good experience in Vietnam. The rooms are very clean and it is easy to get to the main tourist attractions. The hosts were quick to respond and could be contacted immediately if anything happened. They explained everything well and clearly, and the facilities were fine. There is also a laundry service and we were very happy with our stay.There is a café on the ground floor and the staff in the café are all very helpful. I would recommend this accommodation!

I never really write a review, but this place deserves one. I travel A LOT and stay at a lot of Airbnb’s. This IS THE SPOT!!! If you’re a traveler like me or just on the road all the time, you’ll notice that you need little essentials here and there. This place has it all. Wi-Fi is excellent, coffee shop + restaurant on the first floor, laundry on-site, multiple places to eat (steps from the front door), and a big market for essentials is only a few blocks over. Money exchange at banks, ATMs, and jewelry stores are also within walking distance. They are located close to everything and are also away from noise pollution. Lastly, the staff is very kind and communication is next level. I’ve stayed all over Saigon’s Airbnb’s, from condos to skyscrapers… this is my favorite.

I'll start by saying this was the best place I've stayed in during my two-week trip. The bar was set very high and no other hotel I stayed at met my expectations like Christina's did. Not only was it a great value, but the place was just amazing all around. The rooms were well decorated and matched the entirety of the hotel. The beds were extremely comfortable and helped me get well rested during those midday naps I needed before going out to the bars at night. The bathroom was a nice size and had a huge stand-in shower, which is honestly my favorite part about the room itself. It is perfectly located just off a main street, so it has a bit of privacy, but it is also very easy to find and near so many things to do, and that is all within walking distance. I loved staying here and will definitely stay here again during my next visit.

This was a great place to spend our time in HCMC. The room was extremely clean and welcoming, and conveniently located above a café which came in handy on several occasions when we wanted a quick bite or a morning smoothie. The room was quiet and cozy, with a quiet A/C unit to keep us cool.

I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again in the future!

100% the best Airbnb in terms of location, host service, price, cleanliness and more. This is the best Airbnb out of the 4 others that I've stayed in. Thu was very friendly and he greets you in person with a warm smile. Check in was smooth. Place is clean and tidy and has everything you need. It feels great to see an Airbnb this clean. Has great amenities with toiletries, bathrobes available. Floor is very clean. Best thing is the place has an elevator so you don't have to drag your luggages through the stairs. You can opt for laundry (with a small fee). TV in room is a smart TV. I will definitely stay in this Airbnb again!

I had a great stay in this apartment. Everything was as described, very clean. Bed was the most comfortable bed I've ever slept in! Loved the small details, like bath robes, towels in different sizes, water refill on every floor. It was in a good location. Bit away from the craziness of the walking street, but still central enough to get around to attractions easily. Host was easy to communicate with, smooth check-in. Would definitely stay again if I'm ever back, highly recommended to everyone!

Hi - We are not providing breakfast at this location. However, there are so many restaurant just a quick walk to the main road, serving pho and all sorts of local dishes. Also very close to Thai Binh market, which opens at 5:30 am. Our team goes there for breakfast, and there are also vegetarian and vegan options all around. I wouldn’t worry about not finding food here =) Are you doing Day Trips with Onetrip? Because all of our Onetrip experiences have breakfast and relevant meals built it. For example, we have the absolute best Onetrip Cu Chi Adventures =). Our Mekong Delta experience is also very immersive and all inclusive. Make sure to check to see if your tours are all-inclusive and if they take commission from restaurants and shopping stops—this is how some companies run tours at money losing prices. Just ask them before you book. If you can afford to pay a bit more, Onetrip Adventures, which is also within the Christina’s ecosystem, is a great value for the experience you get. Just check out Onetrip on TripAdvisor. Let us know if you need further help. Cheers, Team Christina’s
