Best Hotels in Hoi An 2026: Boutique Heritage to Beach Resorts
Hoi An has an excellent range of boutique and mid-range hotels. The best properties take cues from the town’s heritage aesthetic — wooden shutters, courtyard pools, and traditional Vietnamese design elements without being kitsch. The town’s walkable scale means location matters less than in bigger Vietnamese cities; most hotels are within cycling or walking distance of the Ancient Town.
Luxury (₫2,000,000+ / $80+ per night)
Four Seasons The Nam Hai (Ha My Beach, 30 minutes south): Arguably the best resort property in central Vietnam. Set on Ha My Beach with three-tier infinity pools cascading towards the sea, a private beach, spa villas, and extraordinary service standards. The resort operates at a different level from standard Hoi An accommodation — this is a destination in itself. Rooms start from approximately ₫8,000,000 ($320). Pool villas from approximately ₫15,000,000–25,000,000 ($600–1,000) as of 2026.
Anantara Hoi An Resort (Thu Bon River, old town edge): On the Thu Bon River at the edge of the old quarter. The location is the main advantage — walk out the door and you are in the Ancient Town within minutes. Good-sized pool, river-facing rooms with balconies, and an excellent Vietnamese restaurant. The river-view rooms are worth the supplement for the evening lantern views. ₫2,500,000–6,000,000 ($100–240) as of 2026.
Victoria Hoi An Beach Resort (Cua Dai Beach): Beachfront resort on Cua Dai Beach with colonial-influenced architecture, a good pool, and direct beach access. The property has a retro Vietnamese colonial aesthetic that fits the Hoi An character. Shuttle service to the old town. ₫2,000,000–4,500,000 ($80–180) as of 2026.
Allegro Hoi An (near the old town): Little Luxury Hotels property with 94 suites and a rooftop infinity pool with old town views. Contemporary design that references traditional Vietnamese elements. The suites are spacious at approximately 45 sqm for the base category. ₫3,000,000–7,000,000 ($120–280) as of 2026.
Mid-range (₫700,000–2,000,000 / $28–80 per night)
La Siesta Hoi An Resort & Spa (near the old quarter): Outstanding mid-range boutique hotel. Garden setting with a small courtyard pool, mature tropical planting, and attentive staff who remember returning guests. The rooms have wooden floors, Vietnamese-influenced furnishings, and balconies overlooking the garden. The spa is well regarded. Consistently one of the top mid-range choices in Hoi An. ₫800,000–2,000,000 ($32–80) as of 2026.
Vinh Hung Riverside Resort (Thu Bon River, south of old town): On the Thu Bon River with garden bungalows, a good pool, and a riverside restaurant. The bungalow rooms have more character than standard hotel rooms. The garden setting is peaceful, and the river views from the restaurant add to the atmosphere. ₫700,000–1,500,000 ($28–60) as of 2026.
Pho Hoi Ancient House Resort (near old town): Courtyard architecture inspired by the Ancient Town’s traditional buildings. Small pool in the central courtyard, antique furnishings, and a location adjacent to the old quarter. The heritage-style rooms with wooden beams and tile floors are the ones to book. ₫900,000–2,000,000 ($36–80) as of 2026.
Hoi An Silk Village Resort (Cam Thanh area): Set in the rice paddies outside the main town. The location offers a rural atmosphere with a large pool and spa. Free shuttle to the old quarter (10 minutes). Better for couples wanting quiet than for travellers who want to walk to restaurants. ₫800,000–1,800,000 ($32–72) as of 2026.
Little Hoi An Boutique Hotel (near the old quarter): Small boutique with 30 rooms, rooftop pool, and a location on a quiet street near the old quarter. The rooms are compact but well designed. Breakfast is included and features Vietnamese options. ₫700,000–1,400,000 ($28–56) as of 2026.
Budget (₫250,000–700,000 / $10–28 per night)
Hoi An Historic Hotel (near the old town): Government-run heritage hotel with a prime location near the old town entrance. The facilities are dated compared to newer boutique hotels, but the location is excellent and the large pool is a genuine asset. ₫400,000–900,000 ($16–36) as of 2026.
Thanh Binh Riverside Hotel (riverside road): Clean mid-budget option on the road running along the Thu Bon River. River-view rooms on upper floors are worth requesting. Good breakfast, reliable wifi. ₫350,000–700,000 ($14–28) as of 2026.
Budget guesthouses (Nguyen Phuc Chu Street and surrounding streets): Multiple family-run guesthouses with clean private rooms, air conditioning, and en-suite bathrooms. Prices range from ₫250,000–500,000 ($10–20) as of 2026. Walk the street and compare — standards are visible from the lobby and room. Many offer free bicycle use.
An Bang Beach guesthouses: Several small properties near An Bang Beach at ₫200,000–400,000 ($8–16) per night. Better for beach-focused stays but 4 km from the old quarter. Most have basic kitchens or breakfast included.
What to look for when booking
Pool: Hoi An’s humidity, particularly from April to September, makes a pool important for afternoon comfort. Properties with good pools are worth the premium — swimming in the river is not recommended due to water quality.
River vs inland rooms: River-facing rooms have dramatically better evening atmosphere. The Thu Bon riverside at night, with lanterns floating on the water and lit along the quay, is the quintessential Hoi An scene. Rooms facing the river are worth the ₫200,000–500,000 ($8–20) supplement.
Bicycle access: All good Hoi An hotels provide bicycles free or at low cost (₫30,000–50,000 / $1.20–2 per day). Confirm this before booking — cycling is the best way to get around the flat town and to An Bang Beach.
Flooding risk: If visiting in October–November, check with the hotel about historical flooding. Some streets near the river flood during heavy rains, particularly the low-lying areas near the Japanese Bridge. Hotels on slightly elevated ground or upper-floor rooms reduce this risk.
