First Pullman Hotel Experience in Pullman Saigon Centre

Ho Chi Minh City is the largest thriving metropolis down south in Vietnam. Being one among the busiest cities, it is the hub of major economic transactions not only for the country but for the whole of South East Asia.

Before the notorious war of the century, the city of Saigon was rechristened with the new name of the famous Vietnamese leader. No wonder the city bears heavy cultural and historical heritage dating back the era of French Indo-China, the imperial regime of France. The French had renovated the city with architecture modelling based on many famous monoliths of Paris. They are maintained and restored with utmost care and appear to be central part of attraction for a city tour.

A walk in the balmy evening on the alleys of old city may surprise you with unexpected wonders. As much as the bygone French legacy holds on to their Far East counterpart the essential Vietnamese culture spurs with exotic appearance from everywhere.

The earthy smell of a Pho, the vibrant Cholon market, the finest of restaurant preparing the piece of steak rare done and tourist buses taking a sop before a night long haul, the city stands out with its own identity. A visit to Vietnam is incomplete without at least a night’s stay Pullman Hotel Saigon Centre. Add to that if you are a history buff, the countless museums and palaces dotting downtown HCMC will leave you bewildered.
