This colonial inspired hotel manages to create an intimate and cosy environment despite being one of the city's larger hotels. We especially love the big spacious outdoor swimming pool and the rooms that open right out onto it.

The entry-level room, the Park Room is wonderfully spacious, light and airy. With classic colonial features including large wooden shutter framed windows and big wooden ceiling fans, the decor is delightfully tasteful. However, we adore the Park Deluxe Rooms on the third floor that are slightly bigger and have private terraces that open out onto the swimming pool.

For those after more space, the Park Suite, the Executive Suite and the Presidential Suite offer remarkable luxury and opulence, being some of the best sized rooms in the city. For families, two Park Rooms can be booked that interconnect, or a Park Room with a Park Suite.

The hotel has a well-equipped gym and beautiful spa, making it the ideal choice to return to after a busy day of sightseeing. The hotel also boats two award-winning restaurants; Square One, serving Vietnamese seafood and Western grill, and Opera, an all-day Italian dining venue. Meanwhile, the Park Lounge is a perfect venue for social and business gatherings, while the 2 Lam Son bar is a stylish introduction to the city's nightlife.

Park Hyatt Saigon is situated within the heart of the city, overlooking the elegant Opera House and within reach of the international airport, convention centre and business district.

In a city where there are not many small boutique hotels, the Park Hyatt Saigon remains a firm favourite for us. It has stylish rooms, great restaurant options and a fabulous swimming pool.
