How much does a suit cost at Huong Tailor Ben Thanh?
No review of Huong Tailor gives a figure. Reviewers describe the prices as affordable, reasonable and hard to beat, and one calls it one of the cheapest they came across.
Ask for a price per piece and per fabric before you agree. For typical figures across the city, see the Saigon tailor prices guide.
How long does Huong Tailor Ben Thanh take?
Huong Tailor is fast. Many pieces are ready within 24 hours, and orders with two suits take up to 2 or 3 days. Often one fitting is enough; some reviewers needed no changes, while others had clothes altered several times until they were happy, with no extra cost mentioned.
Hotel delivery is offered, once as late as 1am and once free of charge for a finished suit. The shop has also shipped to Singapore, but that order took over a week and one pair of trousers was still missing weeks later. The same customer was told on the day that the tailoring was done off-site, so last-minute fixes were not possible.

What customers say about Huong Tailor Ben Thanh
The staffs are super friendly. Material are soft and feel luxurious. They are able to pull off a suit and a dress off a picture reference and have it ready in 2 days.
Excellent service and very meticulous workmanship. They took the time to ensure everything was done properly and were more than willing to make adjustments when I wasn’t fully satisfied. Really appreciate their patience and dedication to getting the fit just right. Highly recommend!

Complaints to know before visiting Huong Tailor Ben Thanh
- 2 of 60 Google reviews (both 1-star) describe broken promises under time pressure: one customer's skirt came back two inches too big at the waist and felt cheap, and a jacket promised for 3pm hotel delivery — flagged in advance as urgent because of a flight — arrived at 3:30pm instead; another was told last-minute fixes could be done in 2 hours before their flight, but was then informed the tailoring was done off-site and same-day fixes were impossible. The shop shipped the garments to Singapore instead, but shipping took from 20 May to 28 May with one pair of pants still missing weeks later, and the pieces that did arrive needed further alteration by a local tailor.
Who Huong Tailor Ben Thanh is best for
Huong Tailor suits couples and travelers on a short stay who need suits, dresses, linen or ao dai quickly. One bride showed Jamie a Pinterest board for her wedding gown and got suggestions for her body type. Walk-ins are normal, including same-day requests for next-day pickup.
If your flight is on the day of pickup, leave a margin: both complaints above involve tight deadlines. A reviewer who got a suit and a dress in 2 days wished they had come a day earlier for more adjustments.

Before you order at Huong Tailor Ben Thanh
- Ask where the sewing is done before counting on same-day fixes: one customer flying out learned at the fitting that the work is done off-site, and the altered pieces were later shipped to Singapore with a pair of trousers missing; another was taken to the tailor an hour away for the fitting.
- If you are short on time they will bring finished suits to your hotel, free of charge for one reviewer and at 1 am for another.
- You can bring your own cloth: one customer had batik brought from Singapore made up here.
- They reply on WhatsApp, which one customer found quick for arranging the order.
