Sun-Kissed Festivities: Celebrate in Urban Luxury at JW Marriott Hotel & Suites Saigon

Home to a significant Christian community, Saigon lights up every Christmas Eve with a myriad of festive lights, making it the perfect destination for Christmas and New Year’s travel. This year, JW Marriott Hotel & Suites Saigon is presenting its inaugural program of activities for travelers and locals alike.

Located near Notre Dame Cathedral, a famous landmark and a central place of worship for many Catholics, and Nguyen Hue boulevard that hosts nightly performances, JW Marriott Hotel & Suites Saigon is right at the heart of the festivities. Also nearby are the luxury shopping malls Saigon Centre and Diamond Plaza with their whimsical decorations and festive sales.

Room for magic

For stays until 9 August 2025, guests can book the hotel’s ‘Momentous Getaway’ offer bookable until 31 December 2024.

Festive dining

The hotel’s family-friendly restaurant Market 39 will open the festive season with a Thanksgiving dinner buffet on 28 November, followed by a lively Christmas Eve dinner buffet and Christmas Day brunch complete with a live band performance, party photo booth, Santa bearing gifts and more.
