Uh Homestay Thảo Điền

Uh Homestay Thảo Điền is a 3-star hotel in Thao Dien, Ho Chi Minh City, where every room has its own kitchen, a private bathroom and free WiFi. Its four room types range from 20 m² doubles to 30 m² suites with a separate bedroom, so the property suits travellers who want to cook their own meals, stay several nights or simply prefer self-catering to eating out.

The room types differ mainly in their outlook and bathroom. The Deluxe Double Room with Bath is the only one with a bath and spa bath, the Superior Double Room has a patio overlooking the inner courtyard, and the Junior Suite with Balcony and the Suite with Balcony both open onto terraces with city views. Every room has a flat-screen TV and soundproofing.

Facilities include a paid shuttle service, room service, bicycle parking and free private parking on site, which needs a reservation. The hotel is 5.0 km from the city centre, and the streets around it have cafés, restaurants and a riverside ferry landing.

The range has four room types, and all of them have a private bathroom, a kitchen and room for two guests. Two are 20 m² doubles, the Superior Double Room and the Deluxe Double Room with Bath, and two are 30 m² suites, each with a separate bedroom. Every type has a private entrance, a flat-screen TV and soundproofing, so the differences lie in size, outlook and bathroom.

Beds vary by room. The Superior Double Room has one extra-large double bed, while the Deluxe Double Room and both suites have a large king-size bed. Every bathroom has a shower and a bidet, and the Deluxe adds a bath and spa bath. The outlook changes too: the Superior faces the inner courtyard, the Deluxe has a garden view, and the two suites look onto the city from their terraces.

The property runs a paid shuttle service and offers an airport shuttle, and room service is available. Free private parking is on site, though a reservation is needed, and WiFi is free in all areas. Daily housekeeping, key access and CCTV covering the outside of the property and the common areas complete the practical side.

In the rooms, every kitchen has a refrigerator, kitchenware and an electric kettle, and the suites add a stovetop. Bathrooms have a shower, a bidet, a hairdryer, towels, slippers and free toiletries, with a bath and spa bath in the Deluxe. Air conditioning, a flat-screen TV, internet services, soundproof rooms, an iron and hardwood or parquet floors complete the room equipment.
