Hi Paul
I am living in Tegucigalpa. Where is this company HCMC located? In Tegucigalpa? Do you have any address? Maybe I could recommend you a good place to stay for a few weeks.
I know quite a lot of local people. My husband is honduran and I am Swiss. If you would give me some more information about the skills this people should have, I could maybe support you in finding someone.
Regards,
Eliane

Sorry Paul...I missunderstood something. was in the wrong forum :-(

Hi,

No problem, thanks for replying anyway :-) Coincidentally my mother is Swiss, she is from Montherod, so I have been there many times - lovely country.

Regards

Paul

u mean $50/day?

Paul,

There are some good hotels in Le Thanh Ton or Bui Thi Xuan street where you can afford with your budget.

I dont have software/IT background, but do believe my background can be of help. Send me message if you need my help.

Welcome to Vietnam, Paul!

Hi Julien,

Was that intended for me?

And would that be Grand Baie in Mauritius? If so then this is getting spooky, since my father was from Mauritius :-)

Ah, sorry, being dim here, that was to Haitran, asking him to help publicly rather than privately - I get it now!

Hi Paul,

With $50/day you can find a room at most of hotels in Dist. 1.
If you need a shared furnished room (#usd15/day, Phu Nhuan Dist - it's 15 minutes to Dist. 1 by motorbike),I can share 1 room with you if it's available at that time.

you could go to Tripadvisor then choose which hotel you prefer to stay:
tripadvisor.com/Hotel_Review-g293925-d1379705-Reviews-Thien_Thao_Hotel_Ho_Chi_Minh_City-Ho_Chi_Minh_City.html

Have a good stay.

Paul, plenty of places available for that price in D1. Look at renting a room rather than a hotel you'll get better vfm :-)

ps where abouts in London? i was living there prior to moving here.

Thanks Kev, I have been browsing TA, but was after some personal recommendations too, sometimes they can be a bit better than the anon and often conflicting ones found on TA. Thanks for the suggestion.

Cheers

Hi LBF - cool name :-)

I am fairly into the idea of a hotel coz of having other people run around cleaning and cooking for me :-) Our office in London is right in the city and I live slightly outside in Essex (Nr Southend).

I think you made a wise decision to move to HCM :-)

Cheers Paul,

aside the cooking you will get the same in service in renting a room :-)
Eating out n about is relatively cheap and you will meet as many people as you will in the hotel. Probably more of the expats too.

Worth considering all the same.

Good Luck!

With $50 a day you can get a lot of 4 star hotels at your choice within District 1.

I recommend Nam Hy Hotel on Nguyen Trai. It's in the middle of everything in District 1 and has great service. You can even walk to a lot of places like on Pham Ngu Lao street.

Hello Paul,

Read through the whole thread. May I know if you are now in HCMC and were you able to get a good place?

I lived in Bui Vien St., Dist 1 for several months last year. And as the others mentioned, it is more advantageous to rent a room rather than stay in a hotel. This is all the more so if you find a house owned by a nice family. I was lucky to have found the room I rented in Bui Vien. The family was unobtrusive and kind.

In any event, if you are still in HCMC, hope to get a glimpse of you . I specialize in IT, too, and conversations about software may be a good idea over a couple of brewski.

Ta!

Hi Paul

Came across your thread just now. Where did you ended up staying? Any comments?
Also, how's the business coming along?

I am from Australia and am considering setting up business in Vietnam with a few friends also. IT is the most probable choice as well. Maybe we can go for a drink once I get there?

Kevin

hi Kevin,

Thanks for the message. I ended up staying in a variety of places, but probably my favourites are the Bong Sen and the Liberty 3 and 4.

Back in Europe at the moment but will give you a shout when back in HCM. I am in IT / software too so we should have plenty to chat about

Best

Paul
