Hanoi Lodging

hi there,

My husband and i stayed at Sunshine 2 hotel in the old quarter. Breakfast and internet included in price. Price range from $18 to $30... Brand new hotel aswell. Thought the bathroom was great. The 30 dollar room comes with a computer and internet.

If you travel to Nha Trang we also stayed at a place called Nice Hotel original name i know but honestly was amazing. We were in room 703 and your view is the great china sea and you will be greeted with the sunrise every morning. The room felt like a mini apartment great price $15 also brand new.

Hope that help.

thank you so much for the tips. the nice hotel sounds amazing. if we book ahead, we'll most definitely request room 703. as for the sunshine 2: breakfast and internet sound like a nice bonus.

this is our (my girlfriend's and my) first time traveling to southeast asia. was there anything that you wished you knew of ahead of time? any tips for the first time asia traveler? any tips for traveling between HCMC and PP?

also -- any other hotel suggestions? HCMC? hoi an? has anyone taken a cooking class in hoi an?

thanks again!

madame cuc' (pronounced cook) in hcmc is great hotel really friendly staff and good value under 20us dollar.
There at 127 & 184 cong quynh street e-mail madamcuc@hcm.vnn.vn
you get breakfast with the price and they give you coffee or juice every time you walk in the door.

If you are heading to dalat Dreams is the place to stay

In Hoi Ann, check out the Thanh Xuan Hotel Lovely rooms, breakfast and free internet for $25.00 per night. If you email ahead, they will pick you up at either the airport or rail station in Denang for $10.00. This was especially nice when our flight was delayed (HOURS!) out of Hanoi and we arrived tired and grumpy at midnight and our smiling driver was right there and wisked us away to Hoi Ann. I have never stayed at a more friendly place.

We did the cooking class with Red Bridge in Hoi Ann and enjoyed it very much.

Vietnam is so very beautiful and the people are wonderful!
