Unlock the unique culture of Ho Chi Minh City at Vietnam’s first Le Méridien Saigon hotel.

Situated along the banks of the Saigon River in district 1, Le Méridien Saigon’s central location allows guests to access the wonderful city with ease. Whether you are looking to explore the best restaurants, bars, cafes and tourist attractions or travel with promptitude to business meetings, Le Méridien Saigon’s prime location promises not to disappoint.

The hotel is home to four different restaurant establishments – Latitude 10, Bamboo Chic, Latest Recipe and Art Cacao – meaning that at Le Méridien Saigon, all tastes and moods are catered for.

Latitude 10 is a vibrant café by day where guests can enjoy a selection of craft coffee and tea while catching up with friends or hosting business meetings. By night, the space transforms into a chilled lounge, offering craft cocktails and beer alongside live music.

Bamboo Chic offers a modern take on Vietnamese cuisine with an emphasis on seafood dishes. The elegant and sensual atmosphere, when coupled with the breathtaking 180-degree view of the Saigon River and sparkling skyline, make the venue the perfect spot for special occasion meals and romantic dates.

Latest Recipe offers all-day dining with an extensive menu boasting both local and international a-la-carte dishes, as well as interactive lunch and dinner buffets. The discovery brunch that takes place every Sunday explores a different cultural theme from around the world while offering guests free-flow Champagne, wine and bloody Mary cocktails.

Situated on the ground floor is Art Cacao. Here, guests can satisfy their sweet tooth with a sensational range of artisan chocolates. Designed especially for those in a hurry, the graband-go service features savoury sandwiches made in-house, ensuring that even the busiest guest has time to enjoy a meal.

The chic and contemporary interior of the lobby at Le Méridien Saigon is more reminiscent of a hip new space in Brooklyn than Vietnam. The vibrant shades of burgundy, red orange and purple energise the area while the hanging ceiling installations procure an element of contemporary sleekness blended with eccentricity. This sophisticated interior allows Le Méridien Saigon to exhibit a boutique feel, in spite of its 300-some rooms and suites.

The large number of rooms provides guests with the freedom to choose either a city or river view room with both options with an ambient colour scheme of browns, golds and reds. For those wanting more space, Le Méridien Saigon’s suites are big enough to feel like a home away from home. Guests staying in the suites can enjoy

designated dining and kitchenette areas and a modern workspace alongside access to the Club Lounge where afternoon tea, cocktails, and hors d’oeuvres are served.

It can be hard to catch your breath in a city developing as rapidly as Saigon, making it all the more important to have an oasis of relaxation when returning from a busy day exploring or working. The 26-metre infinity edge saltwater pool located on the 9th floor acts as the perfect retreat from the action of the city. The pool’s enticing open-air view presents Saigon in all of its bustling wonder without the noise or heat. Moreover, for those wanting to unwind in the gym, Le Méridien Saigon offers a 24/7 fitness centre which uses state-of-the-art machines with built-in entertainment systems. A day-pass is also available for locals living in the city who wish to use these facilities but do not need to stay in the hotel.

Situated behind the pool is the Explore Spa where guests can enjoy a range of specially formulated treatments which make use of both local ingredients and marine-based products. The signature massage offered is the Four-hand Choreography which sees two therapists work in harmonic synchronisation, promising an unforgettable and relaxing experience.

Enjoy all of these wonders and more while unlocking the unique culture of Ho Chi Minh City at the Vietnam’s first Le Méridien Saigon hotel. 3C Ton Duc Thang Street, District 1, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Tel: +84 28 6263 6688
