East Bank of the Han River guesthouses and hotels

There are only handful of places across the Han River from central Da Nang. They have the virtue of being quieter and closer to the beach, and the surrounding area has a much more local feel to it.

Da Nang guesthouses and hotels

Da Nang has loads and loads of hotels, mostly catering to the mid-range budget, but a few cheaper options are scattered around town. The appearance of Minh Travel on Tran Phu means that true budget accommodation is now available in the Da Nang's city centre, but book ahead if you want to snap up one of their 20 rooms in high season.

My Khe Beach guesthouses and hotels

My Khe is the local name for the beach directly east of town, about 2 kilometres from the Han River. There is some decent, older accommodation here on the southern half of the beach, though you'll pay a premium for the location. Several more resorts are in the planning stages to the north and south of the existing accommodation, so expect big changes over the next few years.

Ba Na Mountain guesthouses and hotels

This high mountain, about 45 km west of Da Nang, is usually visited as a day-trip, but it's also a cool place to stay the night -- and by cool, we mean the temperature up here is bound to be at least 10 degrees cooler than in Da Nang. May through July are the prime months for sunny whether and clear, panoramic views from the 1,478 metre peak. Once the rainy season kicks in September the mountain is almost constantly shrouded in clouds. In November and December, the temperature plummet and there are frequent thunderstorms, and travel is not recommended. There are two places to stay on the mountain top. Le Nim offers a variety of rooms, almost all of which seem to have great views. The cheaper rooms at Ba Na By Night offer better facilities, but no views.
