Overview

For a longer stay in Saigon, or a work trip, an apartment with a kitchenette often beats a hotel room. JB Central's units have one, along with a work desk, a seating area, air-conditioning, a private bathroom and free Wi-Fi.

Housekeeping comes daily and there's a laundry service, so you can travel light. The building has a lift, a minimarket and security throughout the day, and check-in and check-out are private, with a concierge to help with plans.

It suits business travellers and anyone who likes to keep their own hours in the middle of the city.

Highlights

  • Kitchenette, work desk and seating area
  • Daily housekeeping and laundry service
  • Minimarket and lift in the building
  • Short walk to the Saigon Opera House and City Hall

Good to know

  • Ho Chi Minh City's districts were reorganised into new wards in 2025, so maps may show a newer ward name than the District 1 address.
  • Ride-hailing apps such as Grab are the easiest way to get around the city.
