If your family’s dreaming of a quick and affordable getaway packed with culture, history, and amazing food, Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC) in Vietnam needs to be at the top of your list!
The bustling Vietnamese metropolis, also known as Saigon, has something for everyone — from scooter-filled streets and colourful local markets to rooftop pools and chic cafes. And the best part? You can find plenty of family-friendly hotels in Ho Chi Minh City for under $150 per night, meaning comfort doesn’t have to come at a splurge-worthy price.
Before you book, here’s one important tip: it is common for hotel rooms in Saigon NOT to have windows. Many mid-range rooms are windowless, so always check the room description before confirming your stay (especially if you need natural light to wake up).
P.S/ All hotels recommended in this article have windows.
HCMC travel tips for families
When booking a family stay in Ho Chi Minh City, location is everything.
District 1 is where most visitors stay — it’s central, walkable, and packed with shopping, restaurants, and must-see attractions like Nguyen Hue Walking Street, Ben Thanh Market, and the Saigon Skydeck.
Families who love convenience and easy access to sightseeing spots should stay in this area — just remember to choose accommodation away from Bui Vien Walking Street, the city’s backpacker nightlife zone that can get loud and raucous after dark — not exactly ideal for kids.
If your family prefers a calmer vibe, consider District 3, which offers a more residential feel while still being close to major landmarks. For longer stays or those who prefer modern apartment-style hotels, District 2 (Thao Dien) is another great base — it’s popular among expat families, with international supermarkets, playground cafés, and spacious serviced apartments.
