SoLex Hotel & Apartment

About SoLex Hotel & Apartment

SoLex Hotel is a contemporary place to stay near the historic Giac Lam Pagoda. Rooms are spacious and modern, and there's an on-site restaurant, a bar for evening drinks and a shared lounge.

Secure private parking is free, according to the property, which is handy in a city where traffic and parking can be hard work.

Why it works for a stay in Ho Chi Minh City

Giac Lam Pagoda, founded in the 18th century, is one of the oldest Buddhist temples in Ho Chi Minh City, with a seven-storey tower, carved wooden altars and a peaceful garden. It's a calm contrast to the city's busy centre.

This part of the city is also convenient for Tan Son Nhat International Airport, so SoLex works well for a first or last night, or for business trips to the northern districts.

District 1's markets, museums and nightlife are a ride away by ride-hailing car or motorbike taxi, which are inexpensive and easy to book with an app.

With a restaurant, bar and lounge on site, you can rest after a long flight without heading out, and the spacious rooms suit longer stays.

The apartment-style name hints at longer stays, and this side of the city has supermarkets, local markets and plenty of inexpensive restaurants where you can eat like a resident. Tan Binh's street food, from banh xeo pancakes to hot pot, is excellent and rarely aimed at tourists.
