Nearby Attractions

Unbeatable location is Triple E Hotel’s biggest draw, with three top attractions all within a 10-minute walk:

• Ben Thanh Market: Just 400 meters from the hotel, this iconic 100-year-old market is the beating heart of District 1. Wander hundreds of stalls selling everything from handwoven silk and artisanal souvenirs to fresh tropical fruit and steaming bowls of phở. After dark, the surrounding night market comes alive with street food stalls and live music.
• Ho Chi Minh City Hall (Saigon City Hall): A 7-minute walk from the property, this grand early 20th-century colonial building is framed by dazzling neon signs and the iconic Nguyen Hue Walking Street. It’s especially stunning at night when the facade is lit up, and the pedestrian street is perfect for a leisurely stroll or people-watching.
• Opera House Saigon: A 10-minute walk from the hotel, this stunning French colonial landmark hosts regular classical music, ballet, and traditional Vietnamese water puppet performances. Even if you don’t catch a show, the ornate facade is a must-see for photography lovers.

Travel Tips

Triple E Hotel is only accessible via a narrow side street, so if you’re arriving by rideshare (which we recommend over hailing taxis on the street for better prices), ask your driver to drop you at the Ký Con street entrance. Grab, Southeast Asia’s leading rideshare app, is the cheapest and most reliable way to get around the city from the hotel.

If you plan to explore day trips to the Mekong Delta or Cu Chi Tunnels, the hotel’s tour desk can book reputable guided excursions for a reasonable fee. Keep in mind that these tours require an early start, so confirm your booking the day before to avoid delays.
