If you want to stay near the bus station and you want to save money, you might check out one of the many Nha Tro (boarding houses) that offer squalid, but tolerable, rooms for as little as 35,000 VND a night.

The street isn’t as heavily trafficked as Quang Trung, et al, to the west, but it’s still a wide impersonal boulevard without a lot of atmosphere. On the plus side, it’s an easy walk to the post office with good, cheap internet access. We’d still recommend heading to a quieter side street, but the rooms here were some of the...

This is an easy choice, if not the best value, if you want to stay right near the bus station. The trucks coursing up and down Highway 1 pass right by here with their horns blaring, and it takes a lot of guts and determination to cross the street, but with any luck you won’t have to. We found the rooms clean, spacious and well-furnished with some tubs in the baths, hot water and air-con. If... Read our full review of Phu Nguyen Hai.
