Saigon Hotel is on Dong Du Street in District 1, the central district of Ho Chi Minh City, where many of the buildings date from the French colonial period. The Saigon Opera House, a French-era theatre on Lam Son Square, is 150 m away, and Me Linh Square is 250 m. Ho Chi Minh City Hall stands 350 m from the hotel, and the Ton Duc Thang Museum, which honours the former president, is 300 m away. The hotel sits in the busy part of the district, so the streets around it are lively through the day and into the evening.

Getting here from the airport or the railway station takes little planning. Tan Son Nhat International Airport is 5.7 km away and Saigon Railway Station is 3 km away, and the hotel offers an airport shuttle for arrivals and departures. Opera House Station, 300 m from the hotel, is the closest station on the city's metro, so the rail link is a few minutes' walk from the entrance. For most visitors a taxi or ride-hailing car is the simplest way to reach the hotel from the airport.

For markets and sights, Ben Thanh Market is about 800 m away, a covered market for food, clothing and souvenirs. The War Remnants Museum is 1.4 km away, with its collection on the war years. Tao Dan Park, 1.3 km away, is a green space that is popular in the early morning. Nha Rong Wharf, 900 m from the hotel, is the historic dock on the Saigon River from which Ho Chi Minh sailed in 1911.
