Frommer's Review

The riverside Victoria Chau Doc stands proud on the banks of the Bassac, a busy but captivating stretch of the Mekong. Rooms are a good size, with wood floors and fine detail throughout -- a tidy, comfortable colonial copy. Prices are based on the view (a buck for a glimpse of the river). Bathrooms are nice black-and-white-tile affairs and are large, with stylish granite countertops. Halls are done in a comfortable antique tile, and the general atmosphere of this old riverside dandy is quite pleasant. There's a small pool and decks with great views. The restaurant, Bassac, serves fine Vietnamese and Western cuisine in an air-conditioned dining room or on a picturesque deck. They have a private boat for tours or connections to Cambodia, and the helpful front-desk staff can arrange any local tours.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
