The Myst Dong Khoi, Ho Chi Minh City

6-8 Ho Huan Nghiep, District 1, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam (show on map)

Expert reviews

Fodors review:

“The eclectic design of this hotel is almost as mysterious as its name. Everything here is a tribute to Saigon—its past and its secrets—from the stained-glass details to the antique furnishings and knickknacks throughout, and the scent of ylang ylang that fills the lobby.”

Featured as Fodor’s Choice in Ho Chi Minh City.

Lonely Planet review:

“Very popular, this hip hotel is just a short stroll from the riverside and good shopping along Ð Dong Khoi. Decor combines retro Indochinese style with a dash of 1930s art-deco influence. The quirky exterior is enlivened by a living wall of tropical shrubbery.”

All you need to know

Situated in Ho Chi Minh City’s District 1, The Myst Dong Khoi stands as a remarkable architectural marvel in the vicinity. This contemporary skyscraper is set by the Sông Sài Gòn riverbank, featuring verdant balconies and windows that form a distinctive pattern on the building’s white exterior.

Inside, one can observe wooden flooring, artworks, colored glass windows, and metallic enhancements that bring a touch of indigenous dwellings to this high-end accommodation.

Numerous rooms offer balconies adorned with hanging gardens and breathtaking vistas of Saigon beneath – some of these outdoor areas even boast private whirlpools. Each of the 108 rooms comes with tea and coffee machines, minibars, large screen televisions, and stone bathtubs.

Visitors have access to the in-house fitness center, wellness spa, steam room, and a 24-meter rooftop pool enveloped in lush vegetation and comfortable furnishings – it’s easy to spend an entire day here! The KL Spa houses four therapy rooms where guests can reserve conventional Vietnamese body treatments or partake in current wellness rituals.

Recharge after a day of exploration or leisure at the hotel’s in-house dining spot, the Nest. It offers a continuous buffet in a traditional Vietnamese setting, dishing out European favorites along with genuine Asian dishes. Another excellent dining option at this hotel is ERY.

Drawing inspiration from Vietnam’s Son Doong Cave, this restaurant provides a banquet-style meal in an exotic cave-themed ambiance. On the topmost 15th floor resides ROOTY, known for its tempting cocktails and stylish, vibrant atmosphere.

In addition to its tangible amenities, The Myst Dong Khoi delivers unparalleled service, ensuring all guest requirements are handled with friendliness and proficiency. Guests have the option to arrange various local tours via the hotel, making it extremely convenient to immerse in local attractions and culture.

Truly exceptional experience, worthy of the high ratings

We had a fantastic experience staying here. Our rooms were large and thoughtfully furnished with traditional style decor. We enjoyed the outdoor jacuzzi, lovely scented toiletries, and variety of minibar drinks. The complimentary afternoon tea was also fantastic, with a delicious variety of sweets, sandwiches and dumplings that would change slightly each day. On top of the facilities, we were very impressed with the level of service and accommodation we were provided. The staff were always present to assist us whether at the lobby or via phone call. They extended access to the afternoon tea and pool/showers in the many hours between check out and our late night flight on our last day. They even noticed my upcoming birthday and prepared a slice of cake and a lovely handwritten message. Truly a memorable stay! Finally, the location of the hotel is also fairly convenient. It's within walking distance of a large shopping mall, and the streets and traffic signage in the area is pretty good - we did not have difficulty crossing the road! The road outside the hotel is also not too busy, making it easy when getting into taxis.

We had a highly enjoyable stay

When we first arrived we were put in a room on 1st floor where the balcony faced into a wall and the smell from the laneway did not make it enticing to use the spa. They moved quickly to relocate us to 7th floor. This was so appreciated. Also appreciated high tea and exceptionally good breakfast spread

I had an excellent stay at this hotel. The location was perfect — conveniently close to key attractions, restaurants... The customer servive was outstanding; every staff member I met was warm, professional, and genuinely eager to help, which made me feel truly welcome. The breakfast was delicious and varied, offering both local and international options. I especially appreciated the thoughtful touch of afternoon tea, which added an extra layer of comfort and charm to my stay.

This hotel is in a great location, close to Ho Chi Minh City's main attractions. It's decorated in a very cozy local style and has a unique character. The staff is very attentive to the comfort of guests and can always be counted on. The rooms are very clean and nice. During your stay, it is also worth taking advantage of the bar on the top floor and the swimming pool, which offers a cozy green atmosphere in the middle of a big city. I highly recommend this hotel!

The only downside was the high humidity in the room. We were there in October, and it was still raining heavily in the city, but the humidity was noticeable on our clothes and bedding.

Perfect hotel next to the Saigon river

The hotel is in a nice area of Saigon close to the Saigon river . The staff is very friendly . The roof top bar next to the pool is very cosy and the pool itself is also a refreshing delight. The rooms are spacious and we had the room with outside jacuzzi which is very nice with an amazing view in the river. Breakfast buffets is of very high quality and a lot of variety for everyone. As well European style as Asian flavors .

We had an amazing stay at The Myst Dong Khoi!! The staff were incredibly kind and attentive, always making sure we were comfortable and happy. At checkout, we accidentally left something in our room, but the team immediately found it and kindly sent it along with our other luggage—such thoughtful service! The pool was fantastic, perfect for relaxing and cooling off after a day of exploring. The rooms were comfortable and well-kept, and the whole atmosphere of the hotel made us feel truly welcome. We can’t wait to come back!

Myst Dong Khoi is a modern hotel that offers many unexpected extras making your stay a relaxed experience.

This hotel does all the basics super well. Location, cleanliness, lovely staff, good sized rooms, a spa (terrific massage) and a gorgeous roof top pool area. What this hotel does that makes it different is the extras such as jacuzzi’s in each room, a stand out breakfast, a free high-tea and drinks in your hotel room. These extras add another dimension to the enjoyment of your stay.

There is nothing I did not like about the property

Great location and a good all round experience.

The breakfast was amazing and they also offered a high tea for guests in the afternoon. The building was beautifully designed. The General Manager came and introduced herself to us and explained some things regarding the architecture which was interesting. We stayed on the 14th floor and the room while it was not large had a nice layout.

The outdoor jacuzzi which we had paid for did not work which was disappointing. It is fairly pricey to stay here.

A Must Visit Boutique Hotel in the heart of Saigon City!

The fabulous Breakfast along with the beautiful, well appointed rooms & the unique architecture was by itself interesting to appreciate & reflect.

A Health Faucet/Jet spray as an option would be a great addition....just my thought, but still manageable....More for the uninitiated guests, getting used to the Japanese WC can take some time exploring....

This was a fab boutique hotel with an interesting vibe in a central location. Loved afternoon tea.

We loved the complementary afternoon tea that was offered every day. It was a lovely treat to come in from sightseeing in the heat and sit down to a cup of tea and plate of treats. Thank you. It was a lovely touch.

The room was a bit basic and got very hot while the room was unattended and the power was off. It took a while to cool the room down each time I came in.

If you want to have a luxurious hotel stay without the typical stuffiness of a luxury hotel, this is for you!

It’s stunning, and the details are exquisite, which is obvious immediately. The lobby, restaurant, and rooftop pool and bar are magical, and the rooms with their high end bidet toilets and outdoor jacuzzi bathtubs make it a very hard place to leave. The staff were so wonderful and hospitable.

They were unable to help us rent scooters, which was a first after having stayed in so many other hotels. It was actually surprising, given the high price point for this hotel and the exceptional service. Also, the dumbbells in the gym don’t go up to very heavy weights, so if you’re really strong, this gym might not be for you.
