Description
The rooms here are a bit cramped, in part because they all have tables and fridges packed into the room whether there's room for them or not. On the plus side, the decor is quite pleasant, the bathrooms have tubs, and all the rooms feature optional air-con at a very reasonable price. The more expensive rooms have small balconies overlooking the alley. There's one internet terminal available for free, one hour a day, for guests.

Agree with all baggageallowance says, below. Sounds like we had the same room. Cool place for the money and really friendly helpful staff.

By adneilme ( total comments: 6  More information please ) Stayed here 7/2007
We got a room with a balcony since the room is 4 persons so we paid $14 for the room. The room was clean and got a bath tub, TV and ice box. The staff were helpful.


Good Location, Sunny rooms -
By baggageallowance ( total comments: 5  More information please ) Stayed here 5/2007
The room that we had was on the front it had a small balcony overlooking the quiet alley below. It was bright, clean and sunny with a nice bathroom. This was a real find as we had looked at quite a few ropey rooms in other hotels close by so were relieved to find the Bao Minh. We hired a bike from the hotel and the young guy on reception advised us on which were the best tombs and pagodas to visit, he even put a raincoat in the bike for me just in case!!! The hotel is close to lots of good restaurants and bars and also a short stroll to the riverside park area and bridge which is illuminated on week-end evenings, something we wouldn't have known if it hadn't been for the reception staff. You can also walk to the citadel easily from the hotel and there are plenty of small stores around if you need to purchase sun cream etc. Internet was free but they only have 1 computer - there's a big internet place close by at the top end of the alley. A great little hotel - would stay again!!

Halo
10A/66 Le Loi St,Hue
The Halo is another great choice on Sidestreet 66 and even edges out its neighbour, the Cahn Tien, which is no slouch in the quality department. The upper floors have excellent rooms that sleep up to four people, with air-con, satellite cable TV, big tubs in the nice tile bathrooms, and pretty... more



Canh Tien
9/66 Le Loi St, Hue
This is a great little place tucked away at the end of 'budget alley' off Le Loi Street. It's not the cheapest of the lot, but the rooms offer a lot more for the money. The less-expensive rooms are fan only and a bit cramped, but that's partly because the beds are nice and big, and they still... more



Hoang Huong Guest House
46/2 Le Loi St, Hue
This friendly place is run by a mother and daughter (the hotel is named after Mom) who speak English well and do an exceptional job keeping the joint humming. Even though it's a budget guesthouse, they go all out to attend to the needs of those staying here, and they're incredibly scrupulous about... more



Mimosa Guest House
12/66 Le Loi St, Hue
This is the place to head if all you care about is saving money. The cheapest rooms are fan singles which guests jokingly refer to as 'prison cells.' Not the worst prison imaginable. Like a nice Swedish prison, or maybe a college dorm room. The doubles here have extra beds, making them triples, but... more



Van Xuan
10 Pham Ngu Lao, Hue
We were greeted by a very unclean smell in the lobby of this place, and a spry old Vietnamese guy who didn't speak any English. We thought the rooms were not all that great -- a bit cramped, a bit shabby. Still, the place remains popular, perhaps because of the long exterior balconies, lined with... more



Phuoc An Hotel (DMZ Guest House)
60 Le Loi - 1A Pham Ngu Lao St, Hue
Despite the fact that the DMZ Cafe is sort of a hip place for backpackers to hangout, the associated hotel isn't such an appealing place to stay. We found the rooms clean but antiseptic, and the staff obnoxiously over-eager. Most of the rooms have decent baths with tubs, fridges, TV -- but no... more



Thanh Thuy's Guest House
6/66 Le Loi, Hue
This shining little diamond of a place offers, hands down, the best value for money for budget accommodation is Hue -- and probably in Vietnam. It has just four small rooms, but they're all beautiful and unbelievably cheap. The two street-facing rooms have excellent balconies, and are wonderfully... more
