Practical help for your stay in Saigon, from the airport to the best places to eat, with our own guide app made for ASCON LIVING guests.
Your Saigon, made easy
Ho Chi Minh City is loud, delicious, fast and full of surprises, and the first day can feel like a lot. Our travel guide collects the questions guests ask most: how to get from the airport to the house, what to do in Ho Chi Minh City with kids, where to eat in District 7 and how to get around the city without stress.
For first-time visitors
Start with the airport guide and the practical section of the app, then let the food category do the rest.
For returning visitors
Use the map to find new places around the house that you have not tried yet.
Our guest app: places around the house, routes and tips.
Ideas and practical tips for a relaxed family trip.
From Tân Sơn Nhất to the house, the easy way.
The free ASCON Guide App
The heart of the guide is the ASCON Guide App, our own guest guide for the city. It is free, needs no password and opens in your phone's browser, so there is nothing to install from an app store, and you can add it to your home screen.
How it helps you get around
Every place is listed with its distance from the house and estimated travel times, and one tap on Route gives you directions from your front door. The map shows everything around you at a glance, so you can plan a day that makes sense.
What's inside
Food, starting with our Top 10 near the house; cafés and desserts; bars and nightlife; kids and family; sights and culture; activities; relaxation; shopping; day trips; and practical and emergency information, from arrival at Tân Sơn Nhất Airport to show-to-driver cards and an SOS button.

Travelling with kids
Ho Chi Minh City is a great family destination when you plan around the heat and the traffic. Our guide to things to do in Ho Chi Minh City with kids has practical tips and ideas for the day, and the Kids & family category in the app collects outings for children.
Plan B for rainy days
The house itself has an entertainment room with a 4K projector, karaoke and a PlayStation, so a rainy afternoon at home is never wasted.
From the airport to the house
Our airport transfer guide explains your options from Tân Sơn Nhất. The simplest way is the airport transfer, which you can arrange with your booking. With self check-in by keypad and a key for the outer gate, you can arrive at any time.
For groups, couples and remote workers
Groups
Use the food and nightlife categories to plan the evening, then come home for a rooftop BBQ or a karaoke round.
Couples
Find a quiet café, a sunset spot or a restaurant for a special dinner.
Remote workers
Plan your outings around your calls: WiFi up to 1 Gbit/s with mesh on every floor makes the house a reliable base.
