Van Phat Riverside Hotel

Stayed here for a day for business trip. Rooms are very big and comfortable. For breakfast, lot of varities are available. Service is excellent. Making River is very nearby. River view rooms are excellent, and nice to enjoy the beauty.

Our stay at the Van Phat riverside has been amazing. The hotel is like new, extremely clean. The staff is nice and they speak a good English. Rooms are large and comfortable, the swimming pool was crystal clear, and breakfast was one of the best we’ve had for the whole duration of the trip in Vietnam. Totally recommend.

During a business trip to Cần Thơ, I had the chance to stay at Vạn Phát Riverside Hotel, nestled right along the gentle Hậu River. This place, number 2 Nguyễn Văn Cừ Street, Ninh Kiều District, ain’t just a hotel — it’s like a quiet southern poem sung by the river breeze. Waking up early, I looked out from the balcony and saw the great Cần Thơ Bridge standing tall in the distance, like a memory stretching from old ferry days to modern life. The hotel space is broad and breezy, with a wide-open yard and big ol’ parking lot that makes coming and going easy as pie. The swimming pool glistens under the Mekong sun, perfect for a cool dip after a long day’s work. But what really soothes the soul is the riverside coffee shop. Sitting there with a warm cup, watching boats drift slowly past, the world seems to slow down with the river’s pace. Come mealtime, the Vạn Phát banquet restaurant serves up a real feast — all kinds of Mekong Delta specialties, from crispy elephant-ear fish to hotpots bubbling with herbs and river delights. It’s a fine place to treat guests or wind down with old friends. But not everything shines like a polished coconut. The staff, bless their hearts, could use a little more warmth in their welcome. Service was sometimes cold and stiff — not quite the sweet southern spirit we know and love. A bit of training and kindness would go a long way. Still, for those who want to feel the breath of the river and the soul of miền Tây, Vạn Phát Riverside is worth a stop. It’s where the city meets the water, and where the heart feels just a little lighter.
