Reviews of Violet Star Hotel and Spa 1 stars

This is such a cosy, family run spot. The owners were legends, super friendly and always up for a chat.

Richard, owner, very kind and offered free beer. He drew the hotel plans himself – so cool! I will come back for sure

It’s by a very crowded street and noisy.

Room doesn’t have window for the single room. And property was under construction so very loud from the morning and dusty

Each guest has a private password to enter, very safe

The hotel is close to everything and super convenient. Our room was spotless and well-kept, though not huge. The place can be a bit noisy at night, but the friendly staff, central location, and the fun vibe more than made up for it

We picked this hotel based on a vlogger’s review. Room was small but tidy.

On Saturday and Sunday nights the street is closed to cars, they can’t get down the street. Luckily the hotel is right near the entrance, the hotel staff guided us on the phone and it was just a short 2–3 minute walk.

Rooms are simple and clean. It can be a bit noisy in the evening when many families travel during the summer, but this is understandable. In total, very good value

Room just like in the photos. Many restaurants and coffee shops around. Our group arrived early, left bags in lobby, used shared toilet, and had breakfast nearby. Great location for visiting main sights before check-in.

I left a pair of shoes behind during my solo trip while staying in a dorm. The staff tried to send them to my next hotel, but I had to leave earlier than planned. They went out of their way to connect me with another guest traveling the same way, and thanks to them, I got my shoes back. I will always remember their kindness.

Perfect spot near Bui Vien and Ben Thanh. Only thing is the Wi-Fi was a bit slow sometimes, but overall still a fantastic stay.

Family run hotel, staff very kind and always smile. Location is great. Room clean and safe.

Staff help very fast and always smile, so we feel no worry. Hotel location is great, we can enjoy nightlife at Bui Vien, so many things to see and do

They helped us book tours and even called a taxi for us when we were running late.

Great Location Hot Shower Friendly Staff

Can hear everything outside the rooms ie people coming in and talking in other rooms Little ants everywhere in the room by the windows which came onto the bed a lot

in the city center

the noise

perfectly central, just steps from Bui Vien, walking street, ideal for night owls and solo backpackers. If you are not into partying, stay away from hostels near Bui Vien because the sounds at midnight will disturb you.

The cracky sounds of the door and noisy travelers staying on the balcony are disturbing at midnight.

Only downside – stairs and no lift, but it kept me fit!

The room was nice, though the AC took a while to cool. Still, great value for money.

The bed was comfy and the tour to Cu Chi was well organised. A bit noisy at night, but that’s hostel life. Good vibes all around.

The bed was comfortable, and the Mekong Delta tour was nice. Staff are very kind.

Easy to book and fair price. I went to Cu Chi with my dorm friends!
