Acorn Hotel

Acorn Hotel is a hotel in District 1 of Ho Chi Minh City, on Bùi Viện street, with air-conditioned rooms, private bathrooms and bars and restaurants within 50 m. It suits travellers who want to explore the centre on foot, since Ben Thanh Market and Tao Dan Park are both less than a kilometre away.

The three double room types measure 12 m² for the Standard Double Room and 20 m² for the Superior and Deluxe Double Rooms. Each has a large bed, a shower with a bidet, a hairdryer, free toiletries, a flat-screen TV, soundproof walls and an electric kettle. Air conditioning runs in every room, the Deluxe is the only one with a balcony, and the Standard is the most compact of the three.

The 24-hour front desk, the lift to the upper floors, luggage storage and laundry make the hotel practical for travellers who arrive at unusual hours or need to store bags between trips. Key card access, CCTV in the common areas and a safety deposit box in each room complete the security arrangements.

Acorn Hotel has three double room types, and all of them have one large bed, a private bathroom and air conditioning. The Standard Double Room measures 12 m², while the Superior and the Deluxe Double Rooms are 20 m² each, and every room sleeps up to two adults with room for one child. Each has a shower with a bidet, a hairdryer, free toiletries, a flat-screen TV, soundproof walls and an electric kettle, so the differences lie in size and outdoor space rather than in basic equipment.

The Superior and the Deluxe share the same floor area, with a seating area, a wardrobe and a safety deposit box. The Deluxe is the only room with a balcony, which gives it the outdoor space the Superior lacks. The Standard Double Room is the most compact of the three, with the same bathroom fittings and equipment as the larger rooms.

Acorn Hotel's shared facilities are practical in scope. A 24-hour front desk and 24-hour security cover the building, with CCTV in the common areas and outside the property, key card access and a safety deposit box. Guests can use luggage storage and laundry, and the upper floors are reached by lift.

Inside the rooms, air conditioning and a flat-screen TV come as standard, along with a shower, bidet, toilet paper, towels, slippers, hairdryer, free toiletries, an electric kettle, a refrigerator and a seating area. Soundproof rooms and tiled floors complete the picture.

Free WiFi is available in all areas. The hotel has no parking, so guests who arrive by car or motorbike need to arrange parking nearby.
