Travel Guide: 9Trip in Saigon Royal & The Tresor Residence

Introduction

For travelers craving a home-from-home stay with showstopping views in Ho Chi Minh City, 9Trip’s two-bedroom, high-floor river-view condo in District 4 hits every mark. Far from the chaotic crush of District 1’s backpacker streets but close enough to reach the city’s iconic sights in minutes, this spacious self-catering residence is ideal for family groups, digital nomads, or couples wanting a quiet base to explore Vietnam’s most energetic metropolis.

Hotel Overview

Nestled at 35 Đường Bến Vân Đồn in District 4, this high-floor condo delivers panoramic views of the Saigon River, with soft breezes and golden sunsets over the water that take the edge off Ho Chi Minh’s tropical heat. The space is designed for extended stays and comfort: it comes with a fully functional simple kitchen, a washing machine for long trips, private en-suite bathroom, flat-screen TV, and full air conditioning throughout. Free Wi-Fi covers the entire property, and on-site parking is available for 100,000 VND per day with no advance booking required. Pet owners will appreciate that pets stay for no extra fee, and the property welcomes guests speaking more than 30 languages, from English and Vietnamese to Chinese, Japanese, and most European languages. Shared outdoor pool access and a private balcony let you relax after a day of exploring, and the entire condo is fully non-smoking for a comfortable stay.

Nearby Attractions

Three unmissable local sights are within a 15-minute ride of the residence:

• Ben Thanh Market: Ho Chi Minh’s most famous covered market, 10 minutes away by taxi, is a sensory explosion of street food, handcrafted textiles, souvenirs, and fresh tropical fruit. Bargain gently for custom silk goods, then grab a bowl of authentic phở at one of the market’s street stalls for just a few dollars.
• Saigon Opera House: A stunning example of French colonial architecture 12 minutes from the condo, this 19th-century landmark hosts traditional Vietnamese water puppet shows and international live performances. Even if you don’t catch a show, the grand facade and surrounding tree-lined boulevards are perfect for photos.
• Thủ Thiêm Bridge: Just 5 minutes from the condo, this iconic cable-stayed bridge offers some of the best skyline views of Ho Chi Minh City. Catch the sunset from the nearby riverwalk to see the city’s lights flicker on over the Saigon River, a view that matches the vista from your condo’s high-floor balcony.

Travel Tips

Grab a Grab bike or taxi to get around – District 4’s roads are well-connected, and rides to District 1 cost less than $2. Stock up on fresh produce and local snacks from the nearby Bến Vân Đồn morning market to cook in your condo’s kitchen. If you’re visiting during rainy season (May to November), keep an umbrella handy for quick afternoon downpours, and take advantage of the condo’s pool to cool off on hot, humid afternoons.
