Hội An keeps lunar time

Counting down to the next full moon

Our riverside sits where the Thu Bồn meets the Old Town's lantern light. Every full moon, Hội An turns off its electric lights for the Lantern Festival — here is exactly how long until the next one.

Wake to the river.

No alarm — just light through linen curtains and the sound of water.

Breakfast by the water.

A slow morning on the terrace. Nowhere to be. Nothing to fix.

The spa. The pool.

A book you have been carrying for weeks finally gets opened.

The afternoon dissolves.

Blackout curtains drawn. Riverside quiet. Natural materials against your skin. Rest.

Cycle to the Ancient Town.

Lanterns, phở, the night market — ten minutes away, a world apart. Return before nine.

The turndown ritual begins.

Lemongrass on the pillow. Aromatherapy at the temples. The river outside. Sleep.

The best place to stay in Hoi An. We stayed for 5 nights and had the best time at this boutique hotel. The rooms are very nice, the bed is extremely comfortable, and we had a nice view of the sunset. The swimming pool area is really nice as well. Breakfast was amazing with lots of options. They have free bicycles which is great because you can get to the city center in 10 mins and also go to the beach through the rice fields (aprox 40 mins). They also have some shuttle options which are complementary. The staff was great! Front desk staff really helpful and friendly. Especially Katy who checked us in and Vi who helped us with a situation we had during our stay. Very personalized stay as well. Recommend staying for at least 3/4 nights for getting the best out of town/beach nearby/and a day chilling in the hotel. I wanted to leave this comment on Booking but I couldn’t. Thank you!!

I had an absolutely wonderful stay at Nghe Prana Hotel & Spa Hoi An. What truly set this apart was outstanding guest relations team guided by Hana. I was staying in another hotel in ancient town and cycling around Hoi An looking for a better hotel. This hotel is located right on the serene Thu Bon River in Cam Nam with perfect peaceful island vibe. From the moment I arrived, Hana helped us to arrange for room preference with good rate. She helped us to ensure our safety and arrange trasportation during night tour in Ancient town. A special thank you to Hana, who is above and beyond by helping us with last minute walk in room booking with her dedication, special care, warm attitude and quick problem solving made us feel incredibly valued. The room were comfortable and location was perfect. We will definitely return because of outstanding hospitality!

We absolutely fell in love with this hotel, it was truly amazing. |We had been travelling Vietnam and this was our last hotel and I'm so pleased it was.|From the minute we arrived we were greeted by Katy and Hannah who were super friendly and helpful and this remained throughout our stay here.|The hotel is small but perfectly situated alongside the river which makes it such a serene and peaceful place to stay. |Our room was fabulous very clean, light and airy with a super view of the river. The bed was very comfortable. Air con worked well as did the WiFi.|The pool was a welcome treat in the afternoon when the heat was too much, we very much enjoyed a leisurely swim with a cheeky cocktail in hand !|The breakfast was great, and so were the dinners and lunch we enjoyed, cooked very well and delicious.|The hotel is situated a little outside the ancient town the free shuttle came in handy ,but also a grab taxi cost about £1.|We were truly sad to leave, as we met some super people, we have spoken highly of the hotel to our family and friends and hope to return soon .

Hội An in den Schulferien 2027: Warum Ihr Bundesland entscheidet, ob Sie Regen bekommen

Die Sommerferien starten in Hessen am 28. Juni und in Bayern erst am 2. August — fünf Wochen Unterschied, und in Hội An liegt dazwischen der Beginn der Regenzeit. Alle Ferientermine 2027 gegen das tatsächliche Wetter an der vietnamesischen Zentralküste gelegt, dazu die aktuelle Einreiselage: 45 Tage visumfrei seit März 2025 und die neue digitale Gesundheitserklärung seit Juni 2026.

Vietnam oder Thailand für zwei Wochen? Die ehrliche Rechnung

Der Vergleich, den fast jede deutsche Reiseplanung einmal macht — und der meistens an den falschen Kriterien scheitert. Nicht Strand gegen Strand, sondern Inlandsstrecken, Regenzeiten, die 45-Tage-Visumfreiheit und die Frage, wie viel Ihrer zwei Wochen Sie im Bus verbringen wollen.

Hội An on the Post-Army Route: Where the Rest Stop Goes

Most of the big trip is movement — night buses, dorms, the next border. Hội An is where a lot of travellers stop moving for a few days, and it is the one town on the Southeast Asia circuit built for that. Honest about where it fits in a four-month trip, what it costs, why the tailors matter more than you would expect, and when not to come.

Hội An on a Singapore Long Weekend: All Five of 2027, Ranked — and How It Really Compares to Bali, Bangkok, Batam and Bintan

Singapore has five long weekends in 2027 and none of them costs annual leave. This is which ones are actually worth a flight to Hội An — Good Friday is the best by a distance, Hari Raya Haji becomes the best trip on the list if you add two days for the 19 May lantern night, and Chinese New Year lands on exactly the first three days of Tết. Plus an honest comparison against the shortlist you are really choosing from: Batam, Bintan, Bangkok and Bali, including the four things Hội An loses at.

CNY 2027 in Hội An: When Chinese New Year and Tết Are the Same Weekend

Singapore's Chinese New Year long weekend in 2027 — Saturday 6 to Monday 8 February — is exactly mùng 1 to mùng 3 of Vietnamese Tết, because they are the same lunar new year. That makes it the most atmospheric weekend of the year in Hội An and the least forgiving of improvisation. What is open, what closes for three days, what a Singaporean will find familiar and what will not be, and why the fortnight afterwards is the better holiday.
