Phương Nguyệt Hotel is on Đường Quán Tre in Go Vap, a large district about 12.2 km from the centre of Ho Chi Minh City. The immediate surroundings are a neighbourhood of everyday life rather than a sightseeing quarter. Within a few minutes' walk you reach the Đình Tân Hội temple, 450 m away, and An Suong Market, 750 m away, where you can buy fresh food and household goods. The Mina Coffee café and the Nhà Hàng My My restaurant, both 50 m away, cover the nearest meals and drinks.
For onward journeys, Bến xe An Sương bus station is 200 m from the hotel, and a second bus station, Bến Xe 39, is 2.5 km away. Tan Son Nhat International Airport is 4 km away, a short drive, while Saigon Railway Station is 9.8 km away, a longer trip across the city. Private parking is on site, costs VND 50,000 per day and needs no reservation.
The sights worth a longer outing lie nearer the centre. The War Remnants Museum, which documents the Vietnam War, is 11.2 km away, and Nha Rong Wharf on the Saigon River is 13.2 km away. Closer by, the Công viên Phần mềm Quang Trung park is 1.8 km away and the Bảo Tàng TMA museum is 2.2 km away, while the Chùa Vĩnh Phước pagoda is also close by.
