Awesome! Beautiful! Perfect place to stay as of April 27, 2017. I'm from L.A. California. 1st time in HCMC. I traveled w/ my Vietnamese gf to visit her family. I'm Chinese. Although, she was born in Vietnam and grew up extremely poor(compared to the U.S.), we've been spoiled here in America. She hasn't been back to Vietnam in 12 years. She read some reviews stating there were some cockroaches and was hesitant to book because of that. I told her to just try it since million dollar homes around here have ants and roaches anyways. We booked it and couldn't be happier. Yes, there were some construction, but it never bothered us. HCMC is a very busy city so it's inevitable that you'll hear noise, anywhere. But our room was on the 10th floor was very quiet and never bothered us during our 2 weeks stay. I would also compare the rooms to be as clean as some high end rooms in Las Vegas. The pictures don't really do this place justice since pictures can make a place look better than it is. But trust me, at this time, it was very nice. It's also considered a 4 star hotel (Asian standards). Somerset is also considered a condo or home for some. So it's more like hotel/condo/apartment. There are lots of good eats within walking distance. We also stayed in Eden Star. Eden has a better location, but the rooms were smaller, older, more nosier for the same price as Somerset. We could constantly hear our neighbors slamming their doors. However, the breakfast was better at Eden. More options and it was bigger. Food was better as well. Some rooms will be slightly older judging by the wooden flooring, but nothing to frown upon. Because of our tour and family situation, we initially booked for 3 nights. Right away, we wanted to stay for the remaining trip, but it was too last minute, so that's why we ended up at Eden for a week until we made it back to Somerset. Comparing the 2, I prefer Somerset over Eden, but Eden was also quite nice.
