About Prima Ballroom A
A Grand Setting in the Heart of District 1
Prima Ballroom A is one of the signature event spaces at Hotel Majestic Saigon, a historic colonial-era property situated along the Saigon River waterfront in Bến Nghé, District 1, Ho Chi Minh City. The hotel itself carries a legacy stretching back to 1925, and the ballroom reflects that heritage — combining period elegance with the practical infrastructure modern events demand. The space is appointed with refined décor, high ceilings, and warm lighting that lend every occasion a sense of occasion without demanding excessive styling from the organiser.
The ballroom's character is one of classic grandeur rather than anonymous convention-centre neutrality. Ornate detailing, quality soft furnishings, and a well-proportioned floor plan create an atmosphere that works equally well for a formal gala as it does for an intimate celebratory dinner. For planners who want a space that already feels special before a single floral arrangement is placed, Prima Ballroom A delivers that from the moment guests arrive.
Events & Occasions
Prima Ballroom A is well suited to a broad range of private and corporate gatherings. Wedding receptions and wedding banquets are among the most popular uses, with the ballroom's elegant proportions and atmospheric lighting providing a natural complement to celebratory occasions. Corporate clients regularly use the space for product launches, annual dinners, award ceremonies, and executive conferences, appreciating the combination of prestige address and professional event support.
Social events — milestone birthday celebrations, anniversary dinners, and family reunions — also find an appropriate home here. The Hotel Majestic Saigon's events team provides dedicated planning assistance, working with organisers on room configuration, catering, audio-visual requirements, and décor coordination. In-house catering draws on the hotel's culinary team, with menus that can be tailored to reflect Vietnamese, Asian, or international cuisine depending on the guest profile and occasion.
For events where the venue itself sends a message about the host's taste and standing, the Prima Ballroom A address — a landmark five-star property on Đồng Khởi Street overlooking the Saigon River — carries considerable weight with both local and international attendees.
Location & Accessibility
Hotel Majestic Saigon sits on Đồng Khởi Street in Bến Nghé, District 1, the central business and cultural district of Ho Chi Minh City.

Ben Thanh Market is reachable within a short taxi or ride-hailing journey.
The central location means that guests staying anywhere in District 1, or in adjacent districts, can reach the venue conveniently. For international delegates or guests arriving from Tan Son Nhat International Airport, the hotel is accessible via taxi, ride-hailing services, or hotel transfer — the airport sits roughly 7 to 8 kilometres from the property by road, though travel time varies with traffic conditions. The hotel's own guest rooms and suites allow out-of-town attendees to stay on-site, making Prima Ballroom A a practical choice for multi-day events or destination celebrations where accommodation and venue need to be in one place.
