Guesthouses, hotels and resorts
South bank
The south bank of the Perfume River is home to 'Sidestreet 66 Le Loi,' which is a cul-de-sac where most backpackers head directly upon arrival. The touts are at their worst here and along Pham Ngu Lao between the DMZ Bar on Le Loi and the Why Not Bar at the end of the street. Several new buildings were being constructed on Sidestreet 66 Le Loi when we passed through in late 2007. Construction often starts as early as 07:00 and lasts until 17:00 daily. The Hoang Huong is the only place on the whole street where you're likely to find peace and quite. All construction is targeted for completion by February 2008 at the latest.

Very few westerners head to these cheap places near the Citadel, but why the heck not? The location is a short walk from acres of fresh-cut grass, crossed by placid moats and stony ramparts. And the cyclo guys are all hanging out on the other side of the river! Paradise. A lot of places in this area aren't licensed to accept foreigners, but all the places we list said they were.
