Perhaps Saigon as it existed before the second and third Indo-China conflicts. The location is ideal. This is not a hotel for those travelers who want and need a glitzy, modern hotel.

Excellent location in the core of Saigon. Silent and clean. Great look from the outside - the interior decor is a bit too aseptic. All in all, a very good hotel to stay in!
