Amaya Saigon Boutique Hotel

Amaya Saigon Boutique Hotel is a 4-star hotel in District 1, Ho Chi Minh City, about 1.2 km from the city centre, with a rooftop swimming pool and a sauna. The rooms are air-conditioned and come in six types, from the 20 m² Superior Double Room to the 30 m² Economy and Standard Double or Twin Rooms, each with a private bathroom that has a bath, a shower and a bidet.

Dining is on site: the modern restaurant serves Asian and European dishes for brunch, lunch, dinner and high tea, with vegetarian options, and a bar sits alongside the pool. A steam room, a hot tub, a fitness centre, a sun terrace and a lounge round out the facilities, and a tour desk and car hire help with days out.

The Saigon Opera House and the Đường Sách book street are both within a 10-minute walk, so the hotel suits travellers who want to explore the centre on foot and return to a rooftop pool in the evening.

Amaya Saigon Boutique Hotel offers six room types, from 20 m² to 30 m², all air-conditioned and each with a private bathroom that includes a bath, a shower and a bidet. Free toiletries and bathrobes, a minibar, a wardrobe and a safe deposit box are standard across the range, so the rooms differ mainly in size, bed set-up and outlook. The smallest is the Superior Double Room, while the 30 m² Economy and Standard Double or Twin Rooms are the largest.

Two rooms have a view: the Queen Room, with a king-size bed, and the Standard Double or Twin Room, which can be set up with two single beds or one extra-large super-king double. The Deluxe Double Room offers 22 m² and a king-size bed but has no windows, while the Double or Twin Room has the same 25 m² as the Queen without a view. Each option is set for up to two guests.

The rooftop swimming pool is the centre of the leisure facilities, with a pool bar and an outdoor seating area beside it. A sun terrace with outdoor furniture, a fitness centre with a sauna, a steam room and a hot tub, and a lounge complete the outdoor and wellness offer.

The restaurant serves Asian and European cuisines for brunch, lunch, dinner and high tea, with vegetarian options, and the bar and minibar cover drinks. Breakfast is served as a buffet, and breakfast to go is also offered.

Services include a 24-hour front desk, daily housekeeping, private check-in and check-out, luggage storage, laundry, dry cleaning and an ironing service, plus a tour desk and car hire. A shuttle service is available for a fee, free WiFi is available in all areas, and non-smoking rooms are available.

Amaya Saigon Boutique Hotel stands on Lê Thánh Tôn street in District 1, about 1.2 km from the city centre. The surroundings are dense with bars and restaurants: Kira Kira Bar, Sushi Tei and Robata Dining An are all within 50 m. The Japanese Corners attraction is 100 m away and Lam Son Park 300 m, while the Saigon Opera House and the Saigon Central Post Office are both 550 m away, two colonial-era buildings that anchor the centre. The Bến Bạch Đằng ferry pier on the Saigon River is 700 m from the hotel.

Tan Son Nhat International Airport is 5.3 km from the hotel, and Saigon Railway Station is 3 km away. Taxis and ride-hailing cars are the simplest way to cover either distance, and the Đường Sách book street is a short walk from the hotel, so the first stretch of most days needs no transport at all. Arrivals by air or rail usually finish the journey by road, and the hotel is reached from the street rather than from a station forecourt.

For museums, the War Remnants Museum is 1.4 km away, the Vietnam History Museum and the Ho Chi Minh City Museum are each 800 m away, and the Fine Arts Museum is 1.4 km away. Tao Dan Park, a large green space, is 1.6 km away, the Saigon River Tunnel 1.3 km, and the Zoo and Botanical Garden 750 m, so you can combine museums, parks and the riverside on foot or with a short taxi ride.
