Moving to Ho Chi Minh was an absolute unexpected blessing. So much so, that I signed my original lease for 3 months, and ended up extending it for over a year. I was fortunate enough to have some great friends already living in the heart of Saigon that I stayed with for my first week there while apartment hunting. And a hunt it was. I spent a week touring Ho Chi Minh’s countless serviced apartments, and ultimately settled on one that I couldn’t have been happier with – Icon 56 Apartment in District 4.

I’ve always felt it’s important to try and maintain an upward trajectory in life, and coming from Taipei, Taiwan, Icon 56 Apartment was definitely in line with that ascent. I hope this post serves as a base for those looking to rent luxury service apartments in Ho Chi Minh City, and can serve as a rubric for what you can expect price and amenities-wise.

How Much Does a Luxury Service Apartment Cost to Rent in Taipei, Taiwan?

I lived in Taipei for several years and have mixed emotions about it. It was a time of stress, heartache, happiness, and growth. Ultimately, it was crucial for getting me to where I’m at now professionally and emotionally, so I will always be thankful for my time there. Anchoring me down and keeping me levelheaded was my apartment at Taipei W110 – a luxury service apartment based in the heart of Xinyi District and a stone’s throw away from Taipei 101 (the world’s tallest building from 2004 until 2010).

Taipei W110 was one of the best apartments I’ve ever lived in, so I thought I would help answer some common questions you might have about how much a luxury apartment in Taipei costs and what it comes with.
