The Cozy Nest

The Cozy Nest is a hotel in Thao Dien, Ho Chi Minh City, 4.9 km from the city centre, with air-conditioned rooms in four types, from a 20 m² double room to a 30 m² twin room. Thao Dien lies across the Saigon River from the centre, so the hotel suits travellers who want a base on the far bank, close to the local market and the river pier.

The Double Room has the most complete bathroom: a private shower with a bidet, a hairdryer, free toiletries and bathrobes. The One-Bedroom Apartment with City View has a living area with a sofa bed beside a bedroom with a large king-size bed and an ensuite bathroom. The Deluxe Double Room has one single bed and a view, and the Twin Room, the largest at 30 m², is set up with two single beds for two guests who want to sleep apart.

The Bến Thảo Điền ferry pier lies 250 m away, and the Chợ Thảo Điền market 150 m, so the river and daily shopping are within a short walk.

The Cozy Nest has four room types, all with air conditioning, ranging from 20 m² to 30 m². The Double Room and the bedroom of the apartment have a large king-size bed, the Deluxe Double Room has a single bed, and the Twin Room has two single beds, which suits two travellers who want separate beds. The One-Bedroom Apartment with City View is the only layout with a separate living area, where a sofa bed sits alongside the main bed.

The Double Room and the apartment have private bathrooms; the Double Room adds a bidet, bathrobes and free toiletries to its shower. The Deluxe Double Room and the apartment both have a view, and the Twin Room, at 30 m², is the largest of the four. Linen comes with every room, so bed layout, space and bathroom privacy are the main points of choice.

Air conditioning is available in every room type at The Cozy Nest, and the property is non-smoking throughout, so smoking is not permitted in any area. Each room is also supplied with linen, so guests do not need to bring their own sheets.

Inside the rooms, the Double Room has the fuller set of amenities: free toiletries, bathrobes, slippers, towels, a hairdryer, a bidet, a shower, a desk and a wardrobe. The room facilities are shared across the range, which means the choice between rooms depends more on bed layout and bathroom than on equipment.

Two practical points apply to the whole property. There is no parking available, so guests arriving by car should plan their route in advance, and no internet access is available, so anyone who needs a connection should bring their own mobile data.

The Cozy Nest is on Nguyễn Bá Huân street in Thao Dien, a residential district across the Saigon River from the city centre, 4.9 km away. The neighbourhood market, Chợ Thảo Điền, is 150 m from the hotel, and the Đình Ích Phú temple is also 150 m away. The Bến Thảo Điền ferry pier lies 250 m away and the Công viên dạ cầu Sài Gòn park 450 m, so daily errands and a short walk to the river are both close at hand.

Tan Son Nhat International Airport is 6 km away, and Saigon Railway Station, a principal rail station for trains arriving from other parts of the country, is 6.1 km. Thao Dien train station is 600 m from the hotel, about a ten-minute walk. For the airport and the railway station, a taxi or a ride-hailing car is the simplest option, since both are several kilometres away. Guests who take a ride-hailing car from either point will need to give the driver the street name, Nguyễn Bá Huân.

For sightseeing, the Vietnam History Museum is 3.2 km away and the Zoo and Botanical Garden is 3 km, and both are a taxi ride from the hotel. Nha Rong Wharf, 4.6 km away on the river, is a wharf used for boat trips, and Crescent Lake, 8.6 km away, suits a separate half day. Between outings, the park and the ferry pier make an easy short walk from the hotel.
