"The best of Saigontourist's holdings, this business traveler's favorite offers solid, albeit small, rooms with less kitsch than the Majestic."
Lonely Planet
"The Rex has recently had an overhaul, propelling it into the five-star bracket, although this may be in part down to generosity towards the government owners Saigon Tourist."

"One of Ho Chi Minh City's best-known hotels, the venerable Rex Hotel, set on the corner of Nguyen Hue and Le Loi Boulevards, is a rambling affair dating back to the 1960s."

"Surrounded by shops and restaurants, Huong Sen's central location is its greatest advantage. The exterior is vaguely French-colonial with Asian overtones, and the interior is plush."
