Stayed at De Syloia Hotel - Hanoi, Vietnam.
|
Hanoi is a wonderful city. The atmosphere,the people, the food, the art galleries, the shopping, wonderful!! Going through the art galleries was like wandering through museums, the more you saw, the more you fell in love with the Vietnamese artists' work.
There were many great restaurants catering to any budget if only there were more meal times in a day! All of the coffee shops we went into were good. The Vietnamese drip coffee served at 'Au Lac'was to die for. The restaurant at the De Syloia hotel was excellent as was a restaurant called 'Nam Phuong'.
Going during Tet was not a major problem. The streets were quiet and we were able to wander all over the old quarter without any hassles and visited many art galleries. Many places were closed though, so if you want an action-packed holiday, it may be inconvenient at Tet.
The only place we did not like was a place called 'Hoa Lu', it was an old temple area. Unfortunately the hawkers and beggars make it very difficult to walk around and after a short time we gave up and left. It is a pity that they harrass you so much as it left us feeling really upset and not willing to visit what should have been a relaxing and beautiful place.

Stayed at New World Hotel Saigon - Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon), Vietnam.

Stayed at New World Hotel, good location, friendly staff, rooms spacious & clean.
Would recommend anyone visiting Ho Chi Minh to book hotel rooms & air tickets thru internet & join their local tours which is great value for money. Many travel cafes along De Tham, just across New World Hotel separated by the park.
Whole day daily tours start from US$4 to US$6 with free lunch for some tours according to distance. There are so many tours to choose to up north of Ho Chi Minh & prices are very cheap compared to joining from hotels or from your own country. No tipping to tour guides or drivers as none expect it but when you join tours organised in your country, agents make it compulsory for everyone to tip.
Must try their pastries & french loaves, excellent. Crossing the road is chaotic but after few tries, you will get used to squeezing through. Relatively cheap & very clean non-stinking public toilets which caught me by surpise. So far a safe place, hardly saw beggars in the city & they hardly hassle tourists. Enjoyed our 1st trip to Ho Chi Minh & will definitely be more adventurous to try Hanoi & provinces southwards in our next planning.

Stayed at Rex Hotel Vietnam - Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon), Vietnam.
|
We visited Nha Trang and enjoyed our time there. Be very cautious if you are walking around the streets at night after the pubs close. My husband was acosted by two motorbikes carrying to ladies of the night who approached from behind and with sticky hands went for the wallet. Luckily he was able to push them off but we did hear stories of the same approach and wallets being taken. Shortys is a good spot to eat if you are hanging out for western food excellent hamburgers and breakfast. Also the Blue Star hotel which is right next door is friendly and clean family run hotel (sorry it's not on your web page).

Stayed at Hoi An Beach Resort - Hoi An, Vietnam.
|
We rented bikes at the hotel everyday and rode into Hoi An. That was really fun. We ate at a really delicous place specializing in the local noodle dish "cau lau" at Yellow river restaurant, #42. Besides the noodle dish, the other dishes we tried were also excellent.
Visitng My Son is a must for anybody interested in Cham hindu temples. Our guide book didn't recommend it, but we went anyway and thought it was really exceptional. Next to the Hoi An Beach Resort is a drawbridge that leads across the river which you must pay to cross to go to the restaurant. It's worth it. You can sit on the river and have a drink or a meal and definatly walk around and look at the other out buildings here. It was built by a french architect, and very charming. We had some of the best tasting chicken here too. Everyone was very friendly.

Stayed at Oscar Saigon Hotel - Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon), Vietnam.

I would recommend "Quan An Ngon" for anyone who really likes Vietnamese food, the kind the locals eat. The food is delicious and the price is very reasonable.
For those who must drink bottled water, supermarkets have it less expensive than street shops. I bought Aquafina water from a supermarket at half the price offered by street vendors.

Recommend dinner at the Press Club and Jade Bags if you're into shopping Water Puppets were well worth the trip. Nha Tha is a great little street and there's a good Spanish restaurant there.

Stayed at Best Western Chancery Saigon - Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon), Vietnam.
|
In Saigon, the Restaurant La Fourchette near the Rennaisance hotel was great! It's located at 9 Ngo Duc Ke, Q.1, it is a small french bistro that is very authentic (french owned). Very well prepared food, and very comfortable atmosphere, not terribly expensive, a nice treat. Highly recommended.
