This is a very comfortable hotel.Its distance from Hoi An town was not a significant disadvantage.(The taxi fare is only USD3 anyway)

  • Restaurant Tip : Did not eat dinner at the hotel because so many good and cheap restaurants in town. Best place to eat was the Morning Glory Restaurant which also runs cooking classes for tourists.

I researched all hotels in Hoi An and although there was some suspect reviews on this hotel I thought, it cant be to bad, it look like heaven! Now that I have been there, it certainly does look like heaven, and we had a very nice stay. Very relaxing although next time, I would try a different hotel.

  • Nightlife Tip : Eat at the cargo club, Tim Tam Bar and Mango Room which are all located in the town. Great food and great service.

When we checked in, we were told that the room type that we had booked was full. They put us in a suite and told us that we needed to move the next day. That was fine with us. Nobody contacted us the next day. We went on a tour after a late breakfast. When we returned around 17.00, we got a note under our door saying that the front desk had tried to contact us and we were not in my room. They even mispelled my name. I was more than upset at that time. I was on holiday and would not sit around and wait for a call. Besides it was not my problem that our room type was full. By putting us in a suite was not a compensation, they should have offered us some goodie for the trouble of moving room. Now this note?? I had a discussion with the front desk. After half an hour, the supervisor called me back and said that the general manager would give us a dinner voucher. That was OK. When we checked out two days later, the charge was on our invoice even though we had presented the voucher when we ordered food at the restaurant. It took another half an hour to clear the issue. In the meantime, we had our drive waiting for us to drive us to Hue. We were delayed for 45 minutes.

Even taking a cab from the hotel into town or back from town only cost around $4 or 60,000 dong.

  • Restaurant Tip : Try Brothers Cafe - the food was fab (not as cheap as other places but worth splashing out on). Booking is recommended if you want a sit on the patio overlooking to river.

We enjoyed our stay at Golden Sands and hope to return. There was another beachfront hotel that was starting to be built just down the road a little, that will be interesting

  • Restaurant Tip : It is quite easy to get into town to grab some dinner. The Free Shuttle bus leaves at reasonable times to have some dinner and do some shopping. Sooo many restaurants to choose from, too many favourites to name :)

We would rather have stayed at Victoria Resort. It was a little nearer to town and looked much lovelier than Golden Sand. It is the same class and price range, so if you have a choice pick the Victoria!

  • Restaurant Tip : Good Morning Vietnam is wonderful place for pizza and pasta. Don't forget to get some tiramisu, it's great.
