Rivergate Residence Free Pool

Rivergate Residence Free Pool is an apartment in District 4 of Ho Chi Minh City, 1.2 km from the city centre, with one-, two- and three-bedroom units that each have a private pool and city views. The units are self-catering, so they suit travellers who want space to cook and an outdoor pool rather than hotel services.

Each apartment has a private bathroom, air conditioning, a flat-screen TV with satellite channels and a terrace, while the kitchen has a stovetop, an electric kettle and a washing machine. The building has a swimming pool with a view, a rooftop pool, a sun terrace with sun loungers and a garden, and free WiFi covers the apartments.

The setting is a quiet residential street with city views, and churches, pagodas and a food market lie within a few hundred metres. Ben Thanh Station is 950 m away. The apartment layouts range from one to three bedrooms, so the choice depends on the size of your group.

Rivergate Residence Free Pool has three apartment types, all self-catering and all with a private bathroom, a kitchen, air conditioning, a flat-screen TV and a terrace with city views. They differ mainly in size and in the number of bedrooms.

The One-Bedroom Apartment is the most compact, at 32 m², with one extra-large double bed for two guests. The Two-Bedroom Apartment with View covers 75 m² across a living room and two bedrooms, sleeps up to five and adds a balcony and a dining area. The Three-Bedroom Apartment with View, at 115 m², has three bedrooms with king-size beds, a living room with a sofa bed and room for up to seven guests, and two of its bedrooms have an ensuite bathroom.

The apartments come with a full set of kitchen equipment: a stovetop, an electric kettle, a washing machine, a dining table and cleaning products. The bathrooms have free toiletries, towels, slippers and a hairdryer. Air conditioning, a flat-screen TV with satellite channels and a radio keep each unit comfortable, and internet services are part of the stay.

Outside the apartments, the building offers a swimming pool with a view, a rooftop pool, a sun terrace with sun loungers and outdoor furniture, and a garden. Daily housekeeping, an ironing service and family rooms are also available, and the property is non-smoking throughout.

Parking is private and on site, reservation is not needed, and it costs VND 10,000 per day. WiFi is available in all areas and is free of charge. An electric vehicle charging station is available, and breakfast is not included in the rate.

The apartments are on Bến Vân Đồn, a residential street in District 4, 1.2 km from the city centre. Within a short walk are the Vinh Hoi Catholic Church, 50 m away, Hang Phan Market, 150 m, and Long Buu Pagoda, 200 m, so the morning market and the neighbourhood's places of worship are the first things to see on foot. The river and the district's green spaces are a little further, and the area feels quieter than the central districts.

Ben Thanh Station, 950 m away, is the nearest train station, and the Bến xe buýt Sài Gòn bus station is 1.2 km from the apartments. For the airport, Tan Son Nhat International Airport is 6.4 km away, and a taxi or ride-hailing car is the practical way to get there, especially with luggage. Nha Rong Wharf on the Saigon River, 1.1 km away, is a pleasant place to walk to from the building.

For sightseeing, the Ho Chi Minh City Fine Arts Museum is 850 m away, September 23 Park 1000 m, and the War Remnants Museum 2 km. Kim Liên Pagoda and the Minh Tan Three Religions' Temple are both a few hundred metres from the apartments, so a walking route that takes in temples, parks and the river fills an afternoon. Crescent Lake is 4.5 km away for a longer outing. Travellers who want a longer day can combine the Fine Arts Museum with a stop at the riverside before returning to the apartment.
