Silverland Bến Thành

+ Located right next to Ben Thanh market and the train station. Ha Tam money changer right outside. A buzzy location while still walking distance to Tao Dan Park where you can relax and watch locals do morning tai chi and dancing. + Excellent view of the city from the restaurant. + Impressive range and quality of food and drink at breakfast and afternoon tea. At breakfast they do cook-to-order dishes like seafood flat rice noodles as well as the buffet. Do try the dumpling bao and waffles at afternoon tea! + Very friendly staff.

The hotel is so beautifully designed, the decor and interior design is really creative and unique, from the lobby to room to the restaurant/bar. Looks exactly like the pictures. The room may not be very big but it was extremely cozy. It was clean and the facilities were top notch as well. Had everything you need. Loved that the tub and shower was a separate room on its own so it doesnt get the rest of the room/toilet wet. The coffee from the cafe was also sooo good, had one every day. Didnt try breakfast but had afternoon tea at the restaurant, and there was a violinist playing, the atmosphere was spectacular.

The swimming pool is very nice. I love it so much.

Stylishly quirky hotel in the heart of the busy Ben Thanh district of Saigon.  The lobby looks like something from Tatooine and the restaurant from the Cantina in Star Wars (the decor, not the clientele).  The rooms are more straightforward: spacious, quiet and smart with well equipped bathrooms and comfortable beds.  We had a family room on the eighth floor. The room rate includes an extensive afternoon tea buffet in the twelfth floor restaurant (great city views), plus access to the rooftop pool and sauna/steam room.  Nancy and all of rest of the hotel staff were attentive and charming, with really helpful suggestions for enhancing our stay.  The prime location is within walking distance of lots of the major sites, including the Bitexco Tower Skydeck for aerial views of the city, Independence Palace, Ho Chi Minh City and War Remnants museums, Golden Dragon Water Puppet Theatre, hindu temples, and the pedestrianised Nguyen Hue area with its Uncle Ho statue.  The Ben Thanh Market is on the doorstep, and the swish new metro station is a few steps away. There are also great restaurants nearby (we ate at Pandan Leaf, Bep Me In, Banh Me In - all with vegetarian options) and plenty of coffee shops for breakfast (Tonkin, for example) if you don't want to eat at the hotel. We booked a tour with Handspan to the Cu Chi Tunnels, 90 minutes north of the city - an excellent and sobering experience.  Short Grab rides took us to the Saigon Cao Dai Temple and the Jade Emperor Pagoda.  The new metro underground system is fun to ride, although there's one line at present.

Silverland Yen Hotel was a peaceful and stylish escape in the heart of the city. We loved the minimalist design and relaxing atmosphere, which made it feel like a true retreat from the busy streets of Saigon. We arrived earlier than the check-in time, but the staff didn’t make us wait. They quickly found a room for us and even invited us to enjoy complimentary snacks and coffee at the restaurant while we waited. On the day of departure, they kindly gave us a late checkout for free, just as we had requested. The service throughout our stay was outstanding—attentive, friendly, and thoughtful. We also made use of the sauna every day, which added a relaxing touch to our visit. Highly recommended for anyone looking for comfort, great design, and top service in the city.
