Ho Chi Minh's urban luxe escape

VERIFIED LUXURY

Learn How We Inspect

Across the street from the Opera House on Lam Son Square sits Park Hyatt Saigon, a regal hotel that, despite its more youthful existence, reflects the nostalgia of Ho Chi Minh City’s French colonial history.

Originally opened in 2005 but renovated in 2019, this luxury property is a pillar of tranquil elegance set within the popular tourist area of District 1, characterized by its frenetic energy and swarms of lightning-fast motorbikes.

Those visiting on holiday will appreciate relaxing spaces to retreat from it all, like the tranquil Xuan Spa, while business travelers will marvel at the property’s laundry list of corporate amenities.

For every type of traveler though, one chord runs throughout: the hotel’s commitment to service and honoring Vietnamese tradition, which can be witnessed in everything from the locally sourced artwork adorning every room to 2 Lam Son bar’s cocktail ingredients or the dishes at two standout restaurants, Opera and Square One.

Our Inspector's Highlights

This Ho Chi Minh City hotel is within walking distance to many popular tourist sites, like the Saigon Notre-Dame Basilica, Opera House and Reunification Palace. You can also easily access the main shopping thoroughfare, Dong Khoi Street, on foot.
Xuan Spa, on the hotel’s third floor, presents unique treatments using carefully selected resources — like rice palm, cajuput oil and ginger flower — from the rich, bio-diverse Mekong Delta.
Live music fills the hotel each evening. Guests can enjoy live vocal performances accompanied by piano, while the hotel’s resident pianist presents a repertoire of classical and contemporary pieces on most nights in the Park Lounge. For those drawn to a more up-tempo sound, 2 Lam Son Bar hosts DJ sessions on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, with sets spanning reggae, R&B, hip-hop and electronic music.
Saturday afternoon tea is a favorite activity in Vietnam, and the Park Hyatt offers one of the best of its kind in Ho Chi Minh City. High tea in the Park Lounge includes a lavish buffet teeming with fruit tarts, scones, housemade jams and, of course, bubbly beverages ranging from Chandon Sparkling Brut to Taittinger.
“Luxury is personal” is a motto of the Park Hyatt, and you’ll understand why the minute you step foot into the Saigon property. The staff provides world-class service in a way that feels friendly, not exclusive.

Things to Know

Enjoy local fare without leaving your room at this luxury hotel. Don’t miss ordering the Saigon Breakfast, a plentiful portion (two can share) of fresh fruits, Vietnamese coffee, juice and your choice of pho or banh mi.
Power naps are best taken from the pool terrace, where loungers have luxuriously thick padding to maximize comfort.

The Rooms

The hotel’s 245 guest rooms seamlessly marry elegant and traditional French colonial style with modern technology like mini iPads, Nespresso machines, Bose sound systems and sensor lighting
The property’s 23 suites not only offer a more spacious stay, but a chance to examine local art with a curated selection of antiques, oil paintings and handcrafted embroidery by established Vietnamese creatives.
Book a Park Deluxe Suite for direct access to the redesigned pool and lush gardens.
White marble bathrooms with double entrances give each room a uniquely spacious feel. Bathrooms include both walk-in rain showers and separate tubs.
Custom carpeting throughout the property sports a repeating bird motif, which is a nod to a Vietnamese idiom: “Where there is a good land, the birds will come and settle.”

The Restaurants

Square One, Park Hyatt Saigon’s signature dining destination with an innovative dual-kitchen concept dedicated to Vietnamese and French cuisine. Guests can sample both cuisines, each prepared in dedicated interactive show kitchens.
Alfresco dining is best accomplished at Italian restaurant Opera, which overlooks its namesake (and famous Ho Chi Minh landmark), the Opera House. Chef Luca Cappellato’s menu features house-made pastas, gourmet pizzas and generous seafood and meat dishes, including charcoal-grilled specialties and quintessential Italian favorites.
Vietnamese culture inspires the cocktail menu at 2 Lam Son. Martinis get a creative twist courtesy of infusions from ingredients such as betel leaf, rambutan and lotus flower.
Park Lounge serves as the elegant living room of the hotel, offering light meals, afternoon tea and evening drinks. The refined atmosphere makes it an ideal gathering place throughout the day, whether for casual meetings, leisurely moments or a quiet respite from the hustle and bustle of the city.
Guests can indulge in two delightful options. The Pastry Boutique, led by French pastry chef Douglas Oberson, offers an array of sumptuous cakes, seasonal desserts and freshly baked pastries. Meanwhile, at the Chocolaterie, Park Hyatt Saigon crafts its own artisanal chocolates, featuring unique flavors such as Vietnamese coconut coffee, raspberry Phu Quoc pepper and yuzu black sesame gianduja.
