Photo of Ma Maison

“A quaint 70 year old French villa where charming rooms have been lovingly decorated to reflect Provencal life. Think pastel yellow exteriors with white shutters and wrought iron balconies. Enjoy Vietnamese and European breakfast at a rustic wooden table. An oasis of calm in a bustling city.”

Hotel Review

This family run Provençal guesthouse is the ultimate retreat from the hectic city. Come back from a long days exploring and feel the tension roll off you. Expect little treats and loving details at every turn, such as jars of homemade biscuits and freshly cut flowers. The beds are incredibly comfortable - only the delicious breakfast spread and the sights of Ho Chi Minh City to get you up in the morning. La Maison is about 15 minutes from the centre of town, but this only adds to its charm. Wander the streets around and appreciate the lack of tourists and the unique opportunity to look at this vibrant city through the eyes of a local!
