The Myst Dong Khoi, Ho Chi Minh City
Expert reviews
“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.
“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.

Excellent for a short stay in Saigon!
Uniquely designed rooms with exquisite furniture. Loved the free high tea every day. Coffee shop outside the hotel- which was just lovely. Location was superb!

Very good
Comfy room but the selling point is the hot tub on the balcony! It's awesome! A lunch buffet is included which is a great array of food and drinks. Convenient location for central HCMC. Friendly staff.
Lunch buffet is amazing but would rather it was a breakfast instead.

It was a very well located hotel especially as we were only in District 1 for a night.
The Myst is well located. It’s a very interesting building architecturally with many unusual and charming features. I liked the pool and bar area.
I was a bit disappointed with our room. I thought I’d paid for an upgraded room but it wasn’t very inviting looking. Although the bed was comfortable and the shower very good. So it was more a visual disappointment than any specific item.

Nothing. Everything was great.

Amazing stuff in amazing location made our stay memorable!
Hotel stuff and location make this hotel outstanding. My son turned 16 during our stay and they got a cake and a candle for him. They made sure we are back from our tour to give him the cake. Hotel is really unique. The design, architecture and materials it was made from makes it very interesting and beautiful, specially roof top bar, pool area and the lobby. Breakfast was awesome ( we stayed in 5 different hotels during our stay, all 5-4 stars and every time breakfast buffet was just amazing)
The only thing I didn’t like was the room layout. There was no separate washroom/ bathroom space. Toilet and shower were but sink was in the open space between. There was no privacy to change or even dry after shower. That is no problem if you share the room with your partner but it is problematic if you share the room with your teenage son. But the room was spacious and the bed was comfortable.

Good boutique hotel with lots of charm. A great location for exploring HCMC.
Great location and a funky boutique hotel. The included afternoon tea each day was impressive. Nice pool area and rooftop bar.
The walls are quite thin, so you can hear anyone talking in corridors, and high floors rooms will get a bit of noise when there’s a band on up at the rooftop bar. There’s also a lovely stained glass window into the corridor - a nice touch until you turn out the lights… the corridor lights are quite bright. If you’re a light sleeper - bring an eye mask 😎

Enjoyable and friendly staff, no request was 'to much'.
Location was relevant to where I was working, and the staff were very accommodating to any requests for taxi's etc. They also gave me advice on transport availability for any tours I wanted to on of the city and to Angkor Wat.
I enjoyed my entire time spent at the hotel, so there was nothing not to like.

Great location, amazing value & incredible service ! Great rooftop bar ! Our room Had a balcony with a jacuzzi tub which was lovey ! We have nothing but great things to say about this property !

Fabulous
Had some bad luck with a broken air conditioning but the hotel changed my room and settled the issue quite fast. Also they gave me a late checkout.
The air conditioning system is quite old and noisy. Would recommend to change including the change to EC fans for high energy savings.

A warm and delicate touch of service, with exceptional breakfast buffet choice.
Thank you for remembering my birthday, it' a nice surprise. I enjoy the breakfast box package as well, overall a well rounded service.

Will stay again!
Amazing hotel, great pool and bar on rooftop, highlight the restaurant team, we had a friend ordered us food from outside and they put it onto a place presented to us and explained how to eat it, breakfast at the hotel was already perfect.
