How do you know all this about Ho Chi Minh City?

We keep a curated set of 315 stays in Ho Chi Minh City and re-check them over time, rather than repeating whatever a booking site happens to show today. Connection speeds are what each place and its guests report, 37 of the 150 independently measured, so read them as indicative rather than lab-tested. 165 of the 315 carry no reading at all, and unmeasured is not the same as slow. Prices are the advertised monthly rate, before any discount a host offers. Reviews are counted rather than summarised, and quotes appear word for word, attributed to a stay and a date rather than to a person. Every figure here was computed on 7 September 2026.

The finding in the reviews

Guests in Ho Chi Minh City keep raising the stairs and hills, and rarely to praise it

Guests consistently describe the stairs and hills as physically taxing; over a month, the accumulated climbing emerges as a real burden.

433 of the 9,317 reviews we read mention the stairs and hills. Of the 120 that say which way, 113 are complaints and 7 are praise. It is not the same across the city: Phường Bến Thành at 148 of 1,109 reviews, Phường Tân Hưng at 1 of 209.

What guests say about Ho Chi Minh City

Reproduced word for word, and only where a guest was writing about the place rather than the flat.

What they like about Ho Chi Minh City

Walkable

“However, the area is very central and convenient and would be perfect for anyone traveling to Saigon for the first time.”

Stay in Phường Xuân Hòa January 2026

Nearby

“Great location too as you have coffee shops and restaurants downstairs, a family mart also and a bank with ATM opposite.”

Stay in Phường Sài Gòn January 2026

“The location is great and well connected, being in close walking distance to a major bus station with many bus services.”

Stay in Phường Bến Thành July 2026

What they warn about Ho Chi Minh City

Getting around

“The free airport pickup and SIM card were a huge bonus and made our trip completely hassle-free.”

Stay in Phường Cầu Ông Lãnh January 2026

Noise

“The unit itself is exposed to the street, so loud people or smokers will travel into the unit.”

“However, it’s not very close to the city center—walking there takes about 20–30 minutes.”

Stay in Phường Xuân Hòa December 2025

Guest reviews, never edited and never paraphrased. We hold no reviewer names, so a quote is attributed to a place and a date rather than to a person.
