Sehr gute Lage. Viele Sehenswürdigkeiten fußläufig in 15 bis 30 min zu erreichen. Zentral aber in einer ruhigeren Seitenstraße gelegen.

Nice and quiet but still within walking distance to all the night life. Staff are all lovely - we liked the hotel so much we extended our stay twice. Only one complaint - the WiFi is slow and unreliable.

ホテルの紹介欄に「24時間空港送迎」記載されていたので、それを見て予約しましたが、出発前にメールで予約すると「一杯で席がない。」との事でタクシーを使いました。帰路の送迎についてはフロントでお願いしたが「送迎はないのでタクシーで行ってください。」と言われてタクシーで空港へ行きました。スタッフの対応などは良かったのです。

My stay at the Empress Hotel was really good. The staff were so kind, friendly and helpful. They were informative of where to find places and made my stay very relaxing. My bedroom and ensuite were lovely and had everything I could possibly need. The breakfast room was bright and welcoming and the meal was perfect. On my last day there was a huge downpour and I got extremely wet on my way back for my luggage, Although I had checked out at noon, the staff let me use a small cloakroom to change out of my very wet clothes before leaving for the airport and my flight home to New Zealand. I can thoroughly recommend the Empress Hotel and will certainly be staying there again when I return to Vietnam in the New Year.

This place is way overpriced for their services and room type. U can get much better place for your money. The staff seems never happy. Why would u be this industry when u can never smile in front of your guest. We r paying them money not like asking for a free stay. And they absolutely not helpful. The breakfast choices are limited. And if u ever give them any negatives comments, they will not happy. I was giving my honest opinion about my check in experience and I got questions by the front desk the next morning as I was walking out. Not with the possitive attitude, more like questioning why I gave them a bad review. Absolute horrible. I will not recommend this place for my family and friends . I should of read other ppl reviews before I booked, no wonder this place looks dead all the time.

직원은 친절하고, 영어도 잘 통하고 급한 환전도 되고 여행자거리랑 1km정도 떨어져서 밤에 시끄럽지도 않고, 주변에 마트도 있어요. 단점은 객실 내 물이 비쌈..

Poor customer services, poor room services, lift not functioning properly. Got to pay 1 million vnd as deposit. I book a room for 2 persons but was told it was meant for 1 person; thus I had to pay extra 150,000 vnd for 2nd person per day; 3 days stay cost me extra 450,000 vnd....absurd ! Will not book this hotel again.
