Why Stay At Hotels In Hoi An?


By Jose Garces

Hoi An is one of the most beautiful cities in Vietnam and it is located in the center of the country. The location is a historical gem that results in a romantic feel to the city. There is a great range of hotels in Hoi An to meet all kinds of budgets and demands from backpacker's hostels to boutique and luxury Vietnam holidays.

Hoi An was a busy trading port between the 15th and 19th centuries with traders coming from China, Japan, India and Holland to trade their wares. Much of the original town and buildings are preserved just as they were in the town's golden age and this means that the city is a romantic and interesting location for tourists. There are also many different and lovely handicrafts that are made and sold around the town at artisan's markets.

Something else that makes Hoi An so pleasant to visit and walk around on foot is that in the city there are no cars or moto taxis since they have been banned there. It is safe to walk there without being honked at non stop like you experience in many other Asian cities.

Near the city are the interesting ruins of My Son and for a break from the history and to catch up on some quality bathing and sun baking time you can visit the nearby Cua dai beach and famous China Beach.

The town does not have an airport nearby so Hoi An is only accessible by road. It is easily accessible from Nha Trang and there are thousands of people who come each year to visit the charming historical town. Most people tend to stay at accommodation either around the city center or out at Cua Dai beach.

Hoi An is a lovely and pretty little city that definitely should be visited on any trip to Vietnam. There is plenty of accommodation and hotels in Hoi An to meet any budget and give you a satisfying stay while in town.
