New Sun Hotel Phu Nhuan

New Sun Hotel Phu Nhuan is a 3-star hotel in Phu Nhuan, Ho Chi Minh City, with air-conditioned rooms from 18 to 30 m² and a terrace in every room. It suits travellers who want a comfortable base in the city, and families too, since two of its rooms have two large king-size beds and sleep four. The terraces of most rooms look over a quiet street.

The rooms share a private bathroom with a shower and free toiletries, a flat-screen TV with cable and satellite channels, a minibar, soundproofing and air conditioning. The Standard Double Room is the smallest at 18 m², followed by the Superior at 20 m² and the Deluxe Double at 22 m², all with one large king-size bed. The two 30 m² family rooms, the Deluxe Family Room and the Family Suite, differ mainly in their view.

Facilities cover the essentials of a city stay: a lift, a 24-hour front desk, daily housekeeping, a concierge service, luggage storage, a tour desk and an on-site ATM. The property also has outdoor furniture and a patio. The hotel has no restaurant among its facilities, and the cafés and restaurants on the surrounding streets fill that role.

The hotel has five room types, all with a private bathroom, air conditioning, a flat-screen TV, soundproofing, a minibar and a terrace, so the differences come mainly from size, bed layout and view. The three double rooms each have one large king-size bed and grow in size from 18 m² in the Standard Double Room, through 20 m² in the Superior, to 22 m² in the Deluxe Double Room.

For families and small groups, the Deluxe Family Room and the Family Suite offer 30 m² and two large king-size beds for up to four guests. The first faces a quiet street and the second the inner courtyard, so the choice comes down to the view you prefer. Every room has free toiletries, a shower and towels, so the bathroom is the same across the range.

The 24-hour front desk, private and express check-in and check-out, a concierge service and a tour desk cover arrivals at any hour and help with trips, while daily housekeeping keeps the rooms in order. Luggage storage, an ATM on site, a lift and 24-hour security complete the basics, and the whole unit is wheelchair accessible.

For families, baby safety gates are available and the two family rooms sleep four. Every room has air conditioning, a flat-screen TV with cable, satellite and pay-per-view channels, a telephone, a refrigerator, an electric kettle, a desk and a seating area, while the bathroom comes with a shower, free toiletries, towels and a hairdryer.

Outdoors, the property has outdoor furniture, a terrace and a patio. Soundproofing and a minibar in each room round off the equipment.

New Sun Hotel Phu Nhuan stands on Hoa Hồng street in Phu Nhuan, between the city centre and Tan Son Nhat airport, 2.8 km from the centre of Ho Chi Minh City. Cafés and eateries are close at hand: Coffee 24H Kim Hà, Seven Nine Cafe - Hoa Lan and Beno are each about 50 m away. The Quan Âm Tu Viện pagoda is 100 m from the hotel and the Nhà thờ Thánh Mẫu church is 200 m away, so religious sites are the nearest sights to the hotel.

Saigon Railway Station, the main station for long-distance trains, is 2.1 km away, and Tan Son Nhat International Airport is 2.9 km, so a taxi reaches either in a short ride. For everyday shopping, Tan Dinh Market is 750 m away and Phu Nhuan Market 800 m, both within a short walk of the hotel.

For sights further afield, the War Remnants Museum, which covers the Vietnam War, is 1.9 km away, and the Zoo and Botanical Garden, a large park with animal collections, is 2.1 km. Le Van Tam Park, 1.1 km away, is a green space for an easy walk, while Tao Dan Park lies in the central districts. The Vietnam History Museum and the Ho Chi Minh City Museum cover the country's and the city's past, and the Fine Arts Museum holds a good collection of Vietnamese painting and sculpture. Together they make a full day of sightseeing from the hotel.
