HOTEL REVIEW: THE MYST DONG KHOI HO CHI MINH CITY

I was recently in Ho Chi Minh for ITEHCMC (International Travel Expo Ho Chi Minh City) and had the opportunity to stay at The Myst Dong Khoi Ho Chi Minh City. The Myst is located in District 1 which is super convenient and central to a lot of restaurants and shopping. The design is modern, elegant but also has an old vintage charm to it. Full of lush green plants surrounding the building is what makes it stand out. I loved the boutique feel of the hotel and the moment you walk through the doors you are welcomed by the friendly staff and a refreshing welcome drink.

THE ROOM

The hotel has various rooms, each with its own unique style. I stayed in the Serene Corner Room and loved the decoration, furniture and antique pieces around the room. The room had vintage telephones, books and a beautiful balcony surrounded by lush greenery overlooking the city with an outdoor tub.

AMENITIES

DINING

The Nest – The hotel offers complimentary breakfast and it’s delicious! I love Vietnamese breakfast which is served until 10:30 am. They also offer made to order dishes like pho! The restaurant is buffet style throughout the day. They also offer complimentary afternoon tea daily through 4 pm.

Basin Cafe – The cafe is in front of the hotel entrance and offers delicious coffee for an afternoon break

Bar Bleu – Located at the rooftop pool, Bar Bleu serves the best cocktails to help cool you down. Definitely get the fresh coconut for a refreshing drink!
