CityHouse TERA Kim Nguyen

CityHouse TERA Kim Nguyen is an aparthotel in Phu Nhuan, 4.0 km from the centre of Ho Chi Minh City, with self-catering apartments from 25 to 75 m² and a rooftop pool. It suits travellers who want to cook for themselves, and families who need separate bedrooms, since the range runs from studios to three-bedroom apartments. Every unit has a private bathroom, air conditioning and a flat-screen TV with streaming services.

Each unit has a kitchen with a stovetop, refrigerator, microwave and kitchenware, and most have a balcony with city views. The larger apartments add a living room, a dining area and up to three bedrooms. Guests can use the rooftop swimming pool, the sauna, the sun terrace and the fitness room, and free WiFi covers all areas of the property.

A shuttle service is provided, a lounge gives guests a shared space to relax, and 24-hour security, key card access and a safety deposit box add to day-to-day convenience. Some guests praise the cleanliness of the apartments and the convenient setting near local shops.

The eight apartment and studio types range from a 25 m² studio to a 75 m² three-bedroom apartment. Each has a private bathroom, a kitchen with a stovetop, refrigerator and microwave, air conditioning and a flat-screen TV with streaming services, so the differences lie mainly in size, layout and view. Most types have a balcony with city views, while the ground-floor apartment centres on its seating area and parquet floors.

Studios and one-bedroom units with one large king-size bed suit couples, and the 30 m² Deluxe Queen Studio adds a bath alongside its shower. The two-bedroom apartment has a king-size bed and a double bed, for up to four guests, while the three-bedroom apartment has three king-size bedrooms, two bathrooms and room for up to six.

The rooftop swimming pool and the sauna are joined by a sun terrace with sun loungers or beach chairs, sun umbrellas and outdoor furniture. A fitness room, a shared lounge with a TV area, daily housekeeping and laundry complete the shared facilities.

Practical services include free WiFi in all areas, internet services, private check-in and check-out, key card access, 24-hour security and a safety deposit box. The property is wheelchair accessible and has facilities for disabled guests, as well as family rooms and non-smoking rooms. No parking is available on site.

Inside the apartments, the kitchen has a stovetop, refrigerator, microwave, electric kettle and kitchenware, and the rooms have a desk, a seating area and an iron. Bathrooms come with free toiletries, towels, a hairdryer and a bidet.

CityHouse TERA Kim Nguyen is on Trương Quốc Dung street in Phu Nhuan, about 4.0 km from the centre of Ho Chi Minh City. Phu Nhuan is one of the inner districts of the city, a mix of residential streets, pagodas and small markets, and it lies between the centre and the airport. Everyday amenities are close by: the cafés Hi Coffee and King Coffee are 50 m away, and the Ikigai Sushi restaurant is 150 m away. The Đình Phú Nhuận communal house is in the same neighbourhood. The property suits travellers who prefer a quieter base to the busiest streets around the centre.

The Saigon Railway Station is 1.9 km away for those arriving by train, and the airport is a short drive from the building. The property offers a shuttle service, but there is no parking on site, so a taxi or ride-hailing car is the practical way to reach the door with luggage. The building has a lift to its upper floors.

For sightseeing, Chùa Đại Giác pagoda is 150 m from the property, a short walk away. The Tran Huu Trang Market, a neighbourhood market, is 650 m away, and Gia Dinh Park, a large urban park, is 1.5 km away for a green break. The War Remnants Museum, which covers the Vietnam War with outdoor exhibits, is 3 km away, a short taxi ride across town.
