Long Life Riverside Hotel

Report Abuse

Description

Long Life Riverside sits directly on the Thu Bon riverfront, which gives it a good location for watching the lantern festival and walking into the Ancient Town in under five minutes. The building wraps around an internal courtyard, which looks charming in photos but means most rooms face inward with limited natural light (something to factor into your booking).

The staff, particularly front desk manager Mr. Minh, get consistent praise for being helpful and friendly. Breakfast changes daily and earns real enthusiasm from guests, which is not something you can say about most hotels in this price range.

The recurring mold complaints across multiple reviews are hard to ignore. Several guests were moved after arriving to damp, musty rooms, and a few were not moved at all. Request a room on a higher floor and away from the kitchen if you book here.

Highlights

Insider Tip
Ask specifically for a higher-floor room facing away from the kitchen before you confirm - the location is worth it if you get a decent room, and Mr. Minh at the front desk is the person to talk to if anything needs sorting.
Pros
- Riverfront location puts you steps from the Ancient Town and gives solid views for the lantern festival
- Staff friendliness, especially at the front desk, comes up repeatedly across reviews
- Breakfast is a genuine highlight - changes daily and clearly made with some effort
- Rooms are generally spacious with comfortable beds
Cons
- Mold is a serious and recurring issue - multiple guests report musty smells and visible mold, sometimes requiring room changes
- Rooms face an internal courtyard rather than outside, meaning poor natural light and noise from neighboring rooms
- Some guests report the toilet sits inside the shower cubicle, which is exactly as inconvenient as it sounds
