Family House Bui Vien stands on Bùi Viện street in District 1, the central district of Ho Chi Minh City, and is 800 m from the city centre. Bùi Viện is one of the best-known backpacker streets in the city, lined with hostels, bars and restaurants, and Beer 102 Bui Vien and The Dragon Pub are each 50 m away. The pagoda Chùa Phước Hậu is 200 m away and the Saigon Evangelical Church 150 m, so Vietnamese temples sit alongside the nightlife of the street. Its cafés and bars stay open into the evening, so the street is busy after dark. The entrance is reached from a side alley, which some guests find hard to spot from the main road.

Ben Thanh Station is 650 m away, and the bus station Bến xe Sài Gòn is 450 m away, where long-distance coaches depart. Saigon Railway Station is 2.4 km away and Tan Son Nhat International Airport is 5.5 km, and both are simplest to reach by taxi from the property. Because the property has no parking available, guests arriving by car need to arrange parking nearby.

The Ho Chi Minh City Fine Arts Museum is 700 m away, and Ben Thanh Market, a covered market for food and souvenirs, is 800 m from the property. Starting the day at the palace and finishing at the market keeps the walking within the central streets.

What guests say

88 verified reviews
7.8

Guests praise the tidy rooms with fresh bedding and the low rates for the area. Many found the building hard to spot in its hidden alley at first. The main drawback is street noise from the nearby party district at night, as thin walls and glass let sound through.
