Standard Queen Room

During our stay at The Chill Suites we opted for the standard queen room which had everything we could have asked for and more. The views of the busy bustling city were spectacular from our bedroom window and everything was so sleek and fresh.

It features an extremely comfortable queen bed with lots of natural light flooding the room emphasising the spaciousness, an en-suite bathroom with a powerful shower and a medium sized writing desk complete with power stations and lamp.

Activities

Binh Tay Market

This is one of the major official markets, located in Cholon which is essentially Chinatown. It has a similar feel to Ben Thanh and has even better prices. This back lane fresh food market, was probably my favorite part of visiting Binh Tay Market, and one of the top places I would recommend seeing in Saigon.

Museum of Ho Chi Minh

This is the perfect way to learn about the harrowing history that envelopes Vietnam even until this day.

Most of the displays show the history and making of Ho Chi Minh City, and also there are a number of Vietnamese culture exhibits as well. In the courtyard you will find tanks, jets and heavy artillery that was used during the war while inside you will read about some of the horrific stories that happened to the locals.

The Opera House

Considered to be one of the best representations of French colonial architecture in Saigon, the Opera House theater was built in 1897, and has been beautifully preserved. If you are interested, the Opera House hosts A O Show, a performance of traditional Vietnamese dance using bamboo.

Try the local food

Vietnamese food

Fertilised duck eggs, fermented scorpion wine, deep-fried snake dishes: Vietnam is synonymous with cuisine to put hairs on your chest. Try to avoid restaurants prone to killing the snake in front of you (some diners like to feast on the still-beating heart). It’s not kind to the snake and it won’t increase virility. Don’t worry, the venom is neutralised by the ethanol. Yummy!

Enjoy the nightlife

Equivalent to Bangkok’s famed Khao San Road, Pham Ngu Lao Street is HCMC’s backpacker district, and it’s where the revelry goes on long into the night. If you’re looking for a more urbane option, try a rooftop bar hop of three of the city’s most famous hotels, the Rex, Caravelle and Majestic. Yes, drinks are nosebleed expensive, but there’s a colourful history and impressive view from each. For a refined colonial feel, Temple Club serves up a mean gin and tonic in a former temple guesthouse, while the Dong Khoi area is home to several live-music venues and more upmarket bars. anyarena.com.
