Lume Metro Saigon River rents apartments rather than standard rooms, so each option comes with a living room, a private bathroom and air conditioning. The three types share the same finishes: soundproof walls, a flat-screen TV with satellite channels, a seating area, and a balcony, patio or terrace with views over the city. Guests also have executive lounge access.

The three types differ mainly in size and number of bedrooms. The Deluxe One-Bedroom Apartment covers 65 m² with one bedroom, a living room with a sofa bed and one bathroom, and it sleeps two. The Two-Bedroom Apartment with Balcony is 80 m² with two bedrooms, each with a large bed, and two bathrooms, for up to four guests. The Three-Bedroom Premium Apartment, at 120 m², has three bedrooms, two bathrooms and room for up to six guests, making it the option for larger families or groups.

The property offers a restaurant, a coffee house, a snack bar and a bar, plus a minimarket, bicycle rental, a tour desk, an airport shuttle and a concierge service. For relaxation there are spa facilities, spa and wellness packages, a range of massages, a fitness centre, and sun loungers and umbrellas on the sun terrace.

Inside the apartments you will find a flat-screen TV with satellite and pay-per-view channels, air conditioning, a private bathroom with a bath, shower, bathrobe, hairdryer and free toiletries, a refrigerator, an electric kettle, a dining table and a sofa. Extra-long beds over two metres are also offered.

Free WiFi covers all areas. Parking on site is paid, at VND 150,000 per day, with no reservation needed, and valet parking is also offered.

Lume Metro Saigon River stands on Duong Vo Nguyen Giap street in Thao Dien, the expatriate neighbourhood across the Saigon River from the city centre.
