We honestly had no complaint about the staff or the room size and comfort. The issue was the location was so close to the main party street and sound proofing was not enough to block out the noise. During the day it was ok, but by 10 pm to 3 am it was like you were sleeping inside of a night club. We had booked two weeks of stay but had to cancel after our first booking of 2 nights. We could not sleep with all the loud music.

Lovely place to stay and it was very central. That said, because it was so central to the nightlife you could also hear the street life until late. Overall I would recommend staying here but just be aware of the noise late at night.

I enjoyed my stay at the Rice Hotel very much! The staff were extremely kind and helpful and the breakfast menu was quite expansive and tasty! I would like especially thank Ms. Peony, who is a great Hotel Manager there, for accommodating me with a lovely room. My room was very clean and spacious. I have to say that my short stay in Vietnam and wonderful people there want me to go back there again soon. I’ll make sure to definitely book with the same hotel again next time I travel to Vietnam!

Wonderful Stay with Great Service! I booked two rooms with a friend and requested that we be placed on the same floor. The hotel went above and beyond by upgrading one of the rooms free of charge just to accommodate our request! The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, always checking in to see if we needed anything else to make our stay more comfortable. The hotel is clean, and the location is lively. If you're a traveler looking for nightlife and a vibrant city lifestyle, this is the place to be! I 100% recommend it — especially for #solotraveler. Truly impressed by their hospitality — I would definitely stay here again!
