After travelling South East Asia for the last 6 months, this is the first 10/10 we have given! Lily is so friendly and helpful and can’t do enough for you. She gives lots of helpful advice and answers any questions you have. You can book tours to Cu Chi Tunnels and the Mekong Delta through her, as well as laundry, which was done in less than a day. The location is very central and the room was great, with a very comfy bed. The breakfast was delicious and there is a big fridge full of drinks, which are cheaper than the 7-11. Although it is close to Bui Vien street and you can hear the bars at night… it was never loud enough to affect our sleep. We would 100% stay here again!

Bed was not so comfy.

We really liked the woman who ran the place. Very sweet, generous and helpful. She made the breakfast every day. We stayed for 3 nights spending our last days in Vietnam there. The room was small and a little barren, and the bed wasn't so comfy. It was clean. The bathroom was separated from the room with a frosted glass wall, so you didn't have privacy, really.. Location was chosen because it is central and so it was a little noisy from the party street it is directly on. That stopped at some point in the night though. HOWEVER we did choose the location ourselves, we just didn't know exactly what it was like. And since we didn't come to party it wasn't a plus in itself. It's 15 minutes from Ben Thrang market, which we didn't enjoy. It's huge with many different shops, but they all sell the same.

Not suitable for family stay. The place is right in the middle of night life walking street

Good breakfast. Reception woman was kind and helping.

Only down side was my room was right at the top (3rd floor). Did not forward to that after a day walking around the city. 🥵

Staff (Lynn) was very helpful and friendly. It was close enough to the hussle, but far enough away the noise didn't disturb my sleep too much. Breakfast was very good... missed my English Breakfast Tea.

Lily was friendly and so helpful. Would definitely recommend. 💕

There is a little bit of noise that leaks into the rooms from Bui Vien walking street, and a lot of construction nearby that starts early in the mornings. Shower was very low pressure.

Fantastic location, and price + The host is lovely.

It was great. Despite being near the party street is is not as loud as you would expect. We were prepared for noise and it was better than we expected.

Great friendly little hostel. Clean and comfortable. Great value for money.

The downside of the location is that it's situated in the nightlife district so it's quite noisy even if the windows were noise cancelling

Stayed in December 2024

Only downside is that it is on the party street so it was loud at night. I would say this is not a big issue if you are prepared. We knew this before we came though so we made sure we had earplugs.

Great central location. Very friendly owner. Our room had a nice balcony. Plenty of space for four of us. Good shower. Was clean and comfortable. We had the family room with bunks. Owner gave us dragonfruit to try-yum. She was also super helpful with suggestions for places to eat. There is a 7-11 just outside and a bank machine very close.

Can be a little noisy at night as it’s right off a very busy walking/ party street. Seemed to quieten down after midnight though. Didn’t really bother us but just something to be aware of

Cute little spot right in the centre of Ho Chi Minh City! The owner in reception was very lovely, even gave us a better room and provided local recommendations!

The bathroom is a little bit outdated

Lily is absolute the most amazing host. So kind, all the time available. She booked a headspa and a tour to the cu chi tunnels. Nothing was too much for her.

This wasn’t a problem for us however if you’re a light sleeper then it may be a little en noisy in this area due to the clubs.

wonderful stay at Lilys! Lily is a kind and helpful host. Her support throughout our 2 night stay was brilliant. The property was clean and felt welcoming- we didn’t want to leave! If you are coming to HCMC I cannot recommend staying here enough 🤩🤩

They don’t have a lift, so if you are heavy with bags, better to find a place with a lift.

Location is fantastic and closer to every place we wanted to go

A bit too noisy from the entertaining road which is conveniently located 20m away.

Very helpful staff.

Stayed in August 2024

It was very loud at night - and we were not there to party - but this was not a problem as we had ear plugs for sleeping at night. The host also offered us a quieter room the second night.

It was excellent value for money. It was clean and the bed was very comfortable. It appears very simple - but it has everything we needed for our 2 night stay. (Including umbrellas for the crazy June downpours!)

Stayed in June 2024

The shower pressure was quite weak and the glass door to the bathroom opened onto the toilet bowl, very strange design.

Bed was comfortable, even though it's down a small alleyway off the main bar/nightclub street, it's fairly quiet. Could hear the odd bass but still managed to get to sleep. Helpful to have a desk as well. The owner was very kind and helpful, quick turnaround on our laundry and showed us good eating spots.

Best to bring ear plugs if you're a light sleeper - the street outside is full of clubs blasting techno and karaoke till the early morning. The sound spill is wild!

Cute little place - super lovely staff who helped us navigate HCMC, book onward tickets, get a SIM card etc. The room was comfy. It's in the centre of the super hectic backpacker district (down a little alleyway) - handy in some ways, a bit crazy in others.

Little noisey nothing ear plugs couldn’t sort.

Lily organized great tours for us and gave us great tips about the city. The breakfast was great and the location is bang on the middle of town.

No elevator but it is okay.

Lil! The best host. She is very kind and accommodating . She went out pf her way to buy the staff we are looking for. The only staff at Lily’s Hostel but gets everything done. The rooms are also very clean and the location is at the center almost walking distance to every location we want to visit.

Stayed in December 2023

The bed in our room was a bit uncomfortable but had no problem to sleep.

Nice, clean rooms and location is pretty much perfect. Just next to Bu Vien walking street if you want to party and very central to the entire city as well. We had a great hostess who really helps you out. She drew on maps for us to recommend places to see and things to do and even helped us speak to airline staff through the phone when we needed to change flights. Thank you 🙏🏼
