Babylon Serviced Apartment is an apartment in District 1, Ho Chi Minh City, with studios and a larger Penthouse Apartment, each with a kitchen and a private bathroom. The property is about 800 m from the city centre, on Tran Hung Dao street, with cafés and restaurants 50 m away. Every room has air conditioning, a flat-screen TV and a minibar.

The studios measure 25 m² to 31 m², and the Penthouse Apartment is 35 m². The Standard Studio at 25 m² is the smallest unit, and the Deluxe Studio at 27 m² is 2 m² larger.

The Penthouse Apartment has a separate bedroom with a double bed, a shower and a view, but no balcony.

Free WiFi is available in the rooms, and the building has a lift, 24-hour security and luggage storage. Laundry and ironing services are offered, but there is no parking. The apartment suits self-catering travellers and guests on a longer stay who want a kitchen, a laundry service and a central base for sightseeing.

Three are studios with one double bed: the Standard Studio at 25 m², the Deluxe Studio at 27 m² and the Studio with Balcony at 31 m². Each has a kitchen area with a stovetop, microwave, electric kettle and kitchenware, a flat-screen TV with cable channels and a minibar.

Babylon Serviced Apartment is on Tran Hung Dao street in District 1, about 800 m from the city centre. The Saigon Evangelical Church is 50 m away, Chùa Liên Tông pagoda 100 m and Thai Hoa Temple to Mother Buddha 200 m, so the streets around the building hold several places of worship. Zahrah Coffee Lounge & Garden, The Locus and Mộc Coffee are all about 50 m away, and Tasty Singapore is the same distance for a quick meal.

Saigon Railway Station is 2.5 km away and Tan Son Nhat International Airport 5.7 km, so both are a taxi ride from the door. Ben Thanh Station is 650 m away and the Bến xe buýt Sài Gòn bus station 500 m, which puts the rail and coach links within a short walk. Arriving with luggage, the stations are the most practical points of reference for planning the last stretch.

On foot, the Ho Chi Minh City Fine Arts Museum is 700 m away and September 23 Park 400 m, a short stroll from the apartment. Ben Thanh Market is 850 m away and the Chợ Cô Giang market 400 m, so fresh food and everyday shopping are close at hand.

Crescent Lake, at 5.1 km, is a longer trip for an afternoon out.
