Good for Family and Couple
The breakfast at Happy Life Grand Hotel & Sky Bar was great! In fact, the choices and quality of breakfast was better than Liberty Central Hotel's breakfast.
The staff service was good as well. One staff by the name, "Jade" served nice ice coffee. Excellent!
Hotel is within walking distance to Ben Thanh market but need to cross a chaotic traffic junction.
I look forward to return to Happy Life Grand Hotel and Sky Bar again.

Would stay again
Room was comfortable and clean. Beds and pillows comfy. Pool was cold but clean. Breakfast was good- enough variety. Staff were friendly and helpful, especially Jade in reception area, who went out of her way numerous times with recommendations, organising Grab cars and tickets for us. 5 min walk to markets and can walk to Opera House

Best customer service.
This hotel is a great little gem in HCMC. The staff are a big selling point with their attentive manner and friendly demeanor (Jade was exceptional and makes a great ice coffee)The pool is shallow and the pool area is tight but still a pleasant area.
The front of house staff are top notch.

Better options locally
Overall a good experience but expensive compared to other similar quality options.
Breakfast was good, room was very clean and a good size, the rooftop bar and pool is great although using a temporary entrance.
Sadly a few things didn’t hit the mark - the gym is very small and outdated, dumbbells only to 10kgs. The pool area lacks towels and service in the morning. In the evening, it was really nice until around 11pm when the music turned to very loud EDM and made conversation impossible, even with only a handful of people.

Although the hotel is a little dated the attention of the staff and little details make up for everything. The check in process was easy thanks to Jayden! He is excellent at his job, he takes care of everything and gave us information, about where to eat, how to get there etc.when I asked for a taxi, he himself called a taxi for us. He makes you want to go back to the hotel. He takes his job very seriously.

Aug 17, 2024
When we got to happy life the reception was full of people and it took them quite a while to come and tell us we did not have our 2 rooms that we had booked
It was obvious they had over booked even though they were telling us there was a water leak in one of the rooms. We were moved to another hotel and the property did not have a roof top bar and restaurant like Happy Life. The room was very small and not as good as the one we had booked at Happy Life. We are very dissatisfied with this outcome. Chan is the lady who was given the job to deal with the situation and she was very nice. Not her fault it had happened. We also saw other people that had also been moved to the other hotel. I took a long time researching and picking Happy Life. I have never complained or been unhappy about any room we have ever booked. But this was a disgrace
