Vietnam’s biggest city, Ho Chi Minh City (or Saigon, as it’s still known to most) has a fun nightlife scene that’s constantly growing. While you won’t find the big red light districts or countless go-go bars of Bangkok here, there’s an exciting nightlife scene that’s definitely enough to keep anyone interested.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most of the guest friendly hotels in HCMC can be found in District 1, particularly around Pham Ngu Lao\/Bui Vien (the backpacker area) and the more upmarket part of District 1 close to Dong Khoi and Nguyen Hue streets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Historically, Vietnam has had very strict policies regarding unmarried couples sharing hotel rooms. Until fairly recently, it was illegal for unmarried couples in which one partner was Vietnamese to share a room together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This law has since changed and most hotels in HCMC are happy to welcome you and your partner. However, even many hotels that allow unmarried couples will turn your guest away if you meet someone while you’re enjoying the nightlife in HCMC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example, the vast majority of high-end four and five star hotels in Ho Chi Minh City will refuse access for your guest, especially if you bring her back late at night. Because of this, most of the guest friendly hotels in the city are low to mid-priced one, two and three-star places, with only a few confirmed guest friendly luxury hotels to choose from. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below, we’ve listed all of the confirmed guest friendly hotels in Ho Chi Minh City. All of the hotels listed below have been verified to allow unregistered guests without any extra joiner fees. Note that depending on the hotel you choose, your guest may need to show her ID at the reception — this is a standard policy in Vietnam and isn’t anything to worry about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1, 2 & 3 Star Guest Friendly Hotels in Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Ho Chi Minh City has a large supply of budget guest friendly hotels, most of which can be found in District 1. All of the hotels below are verified to allow unregistered guests without any joiner fees. Most are in the $20 to $50 price range and are located in District 1 close to the nightlife, although I’ve also included a few guest friendly hotels in Districts 3, 5 and 7. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Note that your guest might need to show her ID at reception when visiting many of the hotels below, especially if you come back to the hotel late at night. This is a normal practice in Vietnam — she can get her ID back from the reception the next morning. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\t\n\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t
