Ho Chi Minh City's MOST STUNNING Triplex Penthouse: Rooftop Terrace Paradise!
Okay, buckle up, buttercups, because we're about to dive headfirst into a review of Ho Chi Minh City's "MOST STUNNING Triplex Penthouse: Rooftop Terrace Paradise!" And let me tell you, after spending a week there… deep breath …it's a whole experience. Forget the perfectly polished travel brochure speak. We're going raw, folks.
Let's be real, finding a truly stunning penthouse in bustling, chaotic, yet utterly charming Saigon (as the locals call it) is like finding a perfectly ripe mango in a rainforest. You've gotta be lucky, and this place? This place gave me the luck of the Irish…or maybe the luck of a well-placed travel agent.
First Impressions & the "Holy Crap" Factor
Okay, let's address the elephant—or in this case, the ridiculously gorgeous rooftop terrace—in the room. The name doesn't lie. "Rooftop Terrace Paradise" is accurate, maybe even an understatement. Imagine a sprawling, open-air space with panoramic city views that literally steal your breath. I spent the first hour just muttering, "Holy crap… holy crap…" over and over. Seriously, I think my jaw almost fell off my face. There's seating areas galore, perfect for sunrise coffee (yes, that's included – thank you, complimentary everything), sunset cocktails, or just… staring. Staring at the city lights twinkling below while you sip something potent. It was magical. Forget jet lag; I was buzzing on pure, unadulterated awe.
Accessibility? A Mixed Bag – Let's Get Real
Now, the nitty-gritty. Accessibility. The penthouse itself isn’t the easiest for anyone with mobility issues. It’s a triplex, remember? That means stairs. Lots of them. There is an elevator to get to the penthouse, however, once you are in the rooms themselves, you're on your own. So, if you're reliant on a wheelchair, this isn't the place for you unless you're a fan of intense stair-climbing. But, and this is a big but, getting to the penthouse, and accessing the public areas of the hotel itself, are reasonably well done. There's an elevator, and while I didn't personally test it for accessibility features, the hotel seems to be trying.
Food, Glorious Food! (and a Few Gripes)
- Dining, Drinking, and Snacking: This place nails the food scene. Seriously. The breakfast buffet? Forget continental, this is a feast. Asian breakfast options galore, fresh fruit, pastries that practically melt in your mouth. But the real winner? The Asian cuisine at the main restaurant. The pho was divine, the spring rolls were crisp and light, the seafood… chef's kiss. They also offer room service 24/7, because, let's face it, sometimes you just want to gorge on amazing food while wearing your pajamas, which I may or may not have done. The pool-side bar is a godsend, too.
- Restaurants/Lounges (On-Site): The hotel has a few different restaurants and coffee shops, the best being the main restaurant with those views and that delicious Asian food, the other ones seem less appealing…The coffee shop is great, but nothing special.
- Breakfast in Room: It is an essential part of the luxury package, and they delivered!
- Snack Bar: I don't think I went to the snack bar…
Now the gripes. While they did a great job on the main restaurant, the other eating establishment seemed to be closed…
- Alternative Meal Arrangement: Very, very accommodating.
My Favourite Experience – The Rooftop Pool with a View
OK, let's talk about the pool. I'm not usually a pool person. I’m more of a “sit on the beach and let the waves crash over me” kind of gal. But this pool… it’s something else. It sits right on the rooftop, with that same insane city view. You can swim, sip cocktails, and feel like you're suspended in mid-air, above the beautiful chaos of Saigon. I spent hours there. Hours, people! One day, I even saw a gorgeous sunset while swimming, it was one of the most beautiful things I had ever seen!
Ways to Relax (and Unwind)
- The Spa is a MUST. Okay, the spa is a MUST. I indulged in a massage (worth every penny), and I might have accidentally fallen asleep in the sauna. Don't judge me; it was heavenly.
- Spa/Sauna: Yes, and yes.
- Fitness Center: I confess, I didn't make it to the gym, mostly because I was too busy enjoying the food and the pool. But it looked well-equipped.
- Pool with a view: Yep and it's amazing!!!
- Body Scrub/Body Wrap: Didn't get to this one, but now I would give it a try.
- Steamroom: It's a real steamroom
Cleanliness & That Crazy New World
The hotel obviously takes hygiene seriously in this post-pandemic world. Everything was spotless. And I mean everything. Sanitizing stations everywhere. Even the air felt clean! (Probably because of the professional-grade sanitizing services they employ. I'm not complaining).
- Anti-viral cleaning products/ Daily disinfection in common areas/ Rooms sanitized between stays: All of these things… they made me feel safe.
- Hand sanitizer: Everywhere.
- Individually-wrapped food options/Safe dining setup: Yes, nice to see.
The Little Luxuries (and the Annoying Bits)
- Air Conditioning in Public Areas/In-room: Essential! This is Saigon, people! It's hotter than the hinges of Hades most of the time.
- Daily Housekeeping: Flawless. The room was always immaculate.
- Internet Access/Free Wi-Fi in all rooms! Excellent. Perfect.
- Room Decorations: Some room decorations, all very nice.
- Extra long bed Awesome.
- Mini bar: Yes!
- Bathroom phone: I have never needed this.
Services and Conveniences:
- Doorman: Always helpful, ready to help.
- Concierge: Very helpful!
- Laundry Service: Efficient, and necessary after a few days of exploring the city!
- Luggage Storage: Provided.
- Cash withdrawal: Easy-peasy.
- Car park [free of charge]: Yes.
- Taxi service: Always available.
- Airport transfer: Yes, and efficient.
For the Kids (and Beyond):
- Family/child friendly: Yes, which is nice.
- Babysitting service: Yes.
The "Meh" Bits
Look, no place is perfect. Here are a few things that were slightly less amazing (though nothing that would stop me from going back):
- The elevators can get a little crowded during peak times.
- The lobby felt a little impersonal (though the staff were always incredibly friendly).
- A few of the facilities were closed.
The Verdict: Book it. Seriously. BOOK IT.
Look, I've stayed in my fair share of hotels, and this penthouse? It's a game-changer. It's luxurious, yes. But it's also incredibly comfortable, and offers a real sense of escape. The views, the food, the service… it all combines to create, as the name suggests, a true rooftop paradise.

Alright, buckle up buttercups, because we're diving headfirst into my chaotic, champagne-soaked, and frankly expensive vision of a stay at The Triplex SKY PENTHOUSE / Rooftop Terrace in Ho Chi Minh City. Forget your perfectly polished itinerary - this is the messy, real-life version. Prepare yourselves.
DAY 1: Arrival and the Intoxicating Allure of… Laundry (Plus a Panic Attack or Two, Naturally)
- 14:00 - Arrival at Tan Son Nhat International Airport (SGN): Jesus, Vietnam! Humidity hits you like a wet blanket the second you step out. And the smells! Incense, exhaust fumes, something delicious cooking… it's sensory overload in the best possible way. Finding the private transfer booked by the penthouse? Easy peasy. Though I SWEAR the driver was driving on the wrong side of the road. Or maybe I just haven't adjusted. That's the jet lag talking.
- 15:00 - Check-in at the Penthouse. (The gasp-worthy moment… almost.): Okay, this is what I came for. The photos online? They don't even begin to capture it. The sheer scale? The view? The potential for epic Insta stories? It's intoxicating. I fumbled with the key card (always me), and then… tada! The entrance… gorgeous. The living room? Stunning. The… bedroom? Wait, where's the… the… ROOFTOP TERRACE?! Cue internal panic attack. I pace. I check the floor plans again. I call Reception, already convinced I’ve been scammed. Turns out, the terrace is accessed via another set of stairs. Rookie mistake. But the moment I step out onto that terrace… breathtaking. I want to weep with joy. I resist.
- 16:00 - Mandatory Unpacking and the Joy (and Disaster) of Laundry: Okay, so I'm a disaster. In the haze of excitement, I’ve thrown all my carefully-curated travel outfits (ahem, mostly linen) into the gorgeous, oversized closet… and promptly spilled half a bottle of sunscreen on my favorite silk shirt. Cue the silent scream. So I decide to take the washing in the in-unit unit laundry machine. After struggling to decipher the Vietnamese/English instructions, I successfully put my shirts in the washer. But I accidentally put also in my white pants. I watched it go grey and turn. Cue another silent scream. I'm going to need more wine than I thought.
- 17:00 - Aperol Spritz on the Terrace: Sun, City, and a Moment of Bliss (before the next disaster): Okay, the view is everything. Skyscrapers kissing the clouds, a cacophony of honking motorbikes below… pure, unadulterated magic. Sip, relax. Maybe I should just stay here… forever. I need MORE Aperol Spritz. But wait, the drinks are out…
- 18:00 - Dinner and a Culinary Surprise (and a minor food poisoning scare): I've booked a private chef because, frankly, I don't want to move. He arrives, all smiles and charm, with ingredients. We're supposed to have a traditional Vietnamese feast. The first dish - a delicate spring roll - is divine. The next… not so much. A spicy noodle dish decides to declare war on my digestive system roughly 30 minutes later. I'm convinced I'm going to die. But… I pull through. Turns out it was just the unfamiliar spices, not the food itself. I decide to stick to crackers for the rest of the night.
- 20:00 – Rooftop Stargazing and the Existential Dread of Being Rich (and Lonely): The stars! A million twinkling diamonds against the inky black sky. Stunning. I contemplate my life choices. Am I living the dream? Probably. Should I call my mother? Absolutely not. Is this all a bit… empty? Maybe. I drown out the existential angst with more wine.
DAY 2: Cult-Ves, Chaos, and the Art of Negotiating (or Trying To)
- 08:00 - Wake Up, Regret My Life Choices, and Order Room Service (duh): I'm surprisingly chipper. The nausea has subsided. The silk shirt, ruined. But the world keeps turning. Time for a ridiculously overpriced (but delicious) breakfast by the pool.
- 09:00 - Exploring District 1, Saigon-Style: Motorbike Madness and the Ben Thanh Market: The concierge arranges a driver and a tour. I want the real experience! I want to see the real Saigon! We head to the Ben Thanh Market, which is a sensory explosion. Scents of spices, the clamor of vendors yelling, the colors! I'm lost. I'm overwhelmed. I also want to buy everything. I buy a silk scarf (negotiated down from an insane price, I’m a pro now!), a conical hat (because, tourist), and a bag of weird dried fruit that I’ll probably regret later. And I spend much time trying to order the "best coffee ever" to fuel the day. It was not.
- 11:00 - War Remnants Museum: The Human Cost of History (and a Need for Perspective): Okay, this isn't exactly a lighthearted experience. It’s profoundly moving, and a gut-wrenching reminder of the horrors of war. I struggle to maintain my composure. It's a necessary and powerful reminder of the complexities of the world. I definitely need a drink after this.
- 13:00 - Pho, Street Food, and the Fear of Dodgy Meat: Okay, I’m brave. I'm going to eat street food. I find a place that looks busy (a good sign!). The pho is fantastic! The spring rolls are even better. But I'm still a little paranoid, so I only eat what looks freshly cooked.
- 14:00 - Cu Chi Tunnels: Claustrophobia and the Ingenuity of the Viet Cong: This is… intense. Crawling through these tiny, claustrophobic tunnels is an experience that makes you appreciate the resilience of the human spirit. I almost have a panic attack. But I powered through
- 18:00 - Back to the Penthouse, the pool, the sunset… and the pure, unadulterated happiness of doing absolutely nothing. I deserved this!
- 20:00 - Cocktail Hour (again!) and a rooftop dinner, ordered this time from an actual restaurant: The sky is ablaze with color. The cocktails flow. This is the life, isn’t it? This is what I came for. I spend more time drinking, dancing, and enjoying the life.
DAY 3: The Final Day (AKA, The Day of Self-Reproach and Vowing To Be a Better Person… Tomorrow)
- 09:00 - Hangover Brunch (aka, the "hair of the dog" breakfast): I order a giant Bloody Mary and contemplate all the things I didn't do.
- 10:00 - Last-Minute Shopping Spree (for things I’ll never use): I head to a fancy boutique and buy a dress that I'll wear maybe once.
- 11:00 - Spa treatment (and the desperate hope of redemption): I get a massage because, well, why not?
- 13:00 - Packing (and the crushing realization that I've spent five days in one of the world's most amazing places and probably haven't done enough). The grey laundry. A disaster.
- 14:00 - Check-out (and the bittersweet sting of departure): Goodbye, penthouse! Goodbye, rooftop terrace! You will be missed.
- 15:00 - Departure: I'm on the plane, a little sad, a little hungover, and already planning my return. This trip wasn't perfect. It was messy, imperfect, and completely wonderful. And that’s the best kind of travel, isn’t it?
Ho Chi Minh City's Rooftop Paradise: Your Burning Questions Answered (with a side of sheer awe)
Okay, spill – is this penthouse *really* as amazing as it looks online? Because let's be honest, Photoshop is a cruel mistress.
Alright, alright, I'll be brutally honest. I saw the photos. Smiled. Rolled my eyes. Thought, "Yeah, sure." Then I *walked* in. And BAM. Jaw. Meet. Floor. Seriously. The pictures don't even *begin* to do it justice. It's like they captured a tiny, underwhelming snippet of the actual reality. The view? Forget about it. Even the website, that's trying to sell the place, it's underplaying it, I swear! Because... the photos were taken... on a sunny day. Imagine the city, the sparkling lights, the endless horizon... and then multiply that by, like, a hundred. It's dizzying. You feel like you're on top of the world. My exact reaction? "Holy mother of pho, is this real life?" Yep, it's real. Prepare to have your expectations obliterated.
Let's talk price. Is this place only for Jeff Bezos's forgotten cousin? Because my bank account is currently weeping softly in the corner.
Okay, this is where things get a little...ouch. Look, this is a *luxury* penthouse. Luxury comes with a price tag that could make your eyes water. Let's just say you'll need to have some serious cash saved up. I mean, you're paying for the views, the space, the sheer, unapologetic *opulence*. You're not just buying an apartment; you're investing in a lifestyle. A lifestyle that includes, quite possibly, unlimited avocado toast and a personal chef (just guessing based on the kitchen, you know). Now, I'm not saying it's *unachievable*. But you'll need a strong financial foundation, some ambitious goals... and maybe a winning lottery ticket (kidding... mostly).
The rooftop terrace – what's the deal? Is it just for show, or can you actually, you know, *live* out there? I see the photos, they look amazing, but tell me the dirty little details.
Oh, the rooftop terrace. Where do I even *begin*? It's not just a terrace; it's a freaking *oasis*. Okay, look. The photos are stunning. But the reality...? Even more so. You could *live* out there. Seriously. I'm talking morning coffee with the sunrise, sunset cocktails, casual dinner parties under the stars, and maybe even a midday nap in a hammock while you listen to the city's hustle. Seriously, the wind, the scents... it's magic. I swear I even saw a few butterflies flitting around. (Okay, maybe it was just one, but it felt like a sign!) The only "dirty little detail" I can think of is that you might never want to leave. It's that good. The only downside to this, I mean, *seriously*? You'll have so many people wanting to hang out with you all the time. And you'll be like... "Fine. But you're doing the dishes."
What's it *really* like inside? Is it all cold, sterile modern, or is there some actual heart and soul in this place?
Okay, this is a good question. Because you can have all the views and terraces in the world, but if the inside feels like a sterile museum, what's the point? Thankfully, this place *doesn't* feel sterile. It's modern, yes. But it's also incredibly inviting. The design is clean and sophisticated, yes, but it’s balanced with warm and inviting colors, maybe a little bit of a *touch* of local Vietnamese art and décor. It's like the architects and designers understood that people actually *live* in these spaces. I caught myself actually, physically, relaxing. And I’m not an easily relaxed person. It's a place you could imagine actually *living* in, not just showing off to your friends. It felt balanced. Not too cold, not too busy. Just... right. It's got soul, people. Seriously.
Are there any downsides? (Because, let's be real, nothing's perfect).
Okay, yeah, okay, there are *some* downsides. And I'm going to be honest, finding these took a bit of digging. First, the "elevator wait" situation. You're high up. Sometimes, the elevator can take a minute. It's not horrible, but it's a thing. Second, the *potential* for nosy neighbors. You know, the kind who peek at your parties from their windows. Because, if I'm being honest, this place *screams* "amazing party." And that kind of lifestyle, well, sometimes comes with... eyes. Third? The temptation to never leave. Seriously. I might actually start doing a lot of "work from home" if I had that place. (And by "work," I mean, basking in the sunshine and pretending to work... shhh, don't tell anyone!).
Okay, fine, you made me want it. But what's the *best* part? The one thing that really made you go, "WOW"?
Alright, buckle up, because I'm about to get real. The best part? The feeling. The sheer, unadulterated *feeling* of being there. I swear. I'm a cynical person. I've seen a lot of places. Expensive hotels, fancy penthouses… I'm not easily impressed. But this? This place... it gave me goosebumps. It was the moment I stepped onto that rooftop, looked out at the skyline, the city lights twinkling like a million tiny diamonds, and felt this... this sense of peace. And possibility. I swear. It just… washed over me. It was like all the noise and the chaos of the city just melted away. It felt like home. Even though it wasn't. And that, my friends, is something you can't buy. That's the magic. That's the WOW. And that, is a pretty good description of the place.
Let's talk logistics. Where is it? How's the neighborhood? What's convenient? What's a pain?
Okay, location, location, location! This triplex is smack-dab in the heart of... Well, I can't reveal the *exact* address, but let's just say it's central. Really central. Super central. You're talking walking distance (or a short Grab ride) to some of the best restaurants, bars, and shops in the city. Think vibrant nightlife, amazing street food (because you *have* to get your pho fix!), and all the cultural gems you can handle.
Convenience is the name of the game here. Need a grocery run? Easy. A quick coffee? Boom, there. Entertainment options? Endless. You're basically living in the middle of a playground (a very expensive, luxurious playground,Find That Hotel
