Find hotels in Ba Le Well

What a great resort, one of the best in stayed in during my travels around SE Asia. Nearly brand spanking new and within walking distance to down town Hoi An. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful and the large pool was a welcome respite after a sweaty day walking the streets. We were fortunate enough to be upgraded to an 'Emerald Suite' on arrival (we had originally booked a river view room. The suite was very large and had the most amazing view of both the swimming pool and river. It also had one of this pod type chairs on the balcony which was great for relaxing. The resort itself had a large, well appointed restaurant (although admittedly we only used it for breakfast - which were buffet and delicious), it also had a small gym (which was more of a 'gym-ette' with just a sprinkling of small weights and two treadmills) and a day spa. The hotel was kind enough to arrange a tour to My Son for us as well as return airport (Danang) transfers and I would definitely recommend booking your tours through the hotel. Pros of the resort: the room was very large (50 sqm) and very modern. The bathroom was absolutely HUGE !! with both a separate bathtub and a large, powerful shower. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the reception staff spoke fluent English. The resort boasted lovely sunset views over the river and was only a 5-10 minute walk away from the main town area of Hoi An (which is a very lovely town). We never felt unsafe walking back, even at night but a taxi probably wouldn't cost much. It was also very quiet. There was also the opportunity to hire bikes directly opposite the hotel for about $3 a day and we cycled out to the nearest beach at Cua Dia (about 7km away).

So, we ended up at Lantana (on the wise recommendation of a friend) the day before the Typhoon Damrey flooding hit. Saturday afternoon, we drove up to the front gate on the road next to the river in a taxi. By Sunday there was no road to be seen and by Monday, the water was in the Lobby. And you know what? We never even considered checking out and going somewhere else. The staff here is simply the best of the best. They made sure we were taken care of every step of the way. They took note of our names right away and referred to us by them every time. They remembered the drinks we ordered (and enjoyed immensely) at Happy Hour and even what kind of eggs we ordered for breakfast. Every single thing was done with a smile on their faces, even when the circumstances were out of their control and less than ideal. When the flooding reached the lobby, we arrived downstairs in the morning to find that the breakfast buffet had calmly and simply been moved to the hallway on higher ground. Coffee was still hot and even eggs were still on order direct from the kitchen! Many of the staff members stayed at the hotel overnight several nights in a row. Some to cover for staff who couldn't make it in, we imagine, and others because they couldn't make it out to their own flooded homes anyway. Not once did we see a hint of frustration or annoyance or even the exhaustion they must have all been feeling. They worked TIRELESSLY and earned our business over and over again in every interaction we had with every single staff member. Our room was cleaned every day, our laundry was even done in a couple of hours on the worst day of the flooding, and it was all done with a general smile. We were so touched by Brian and his staff, including Anna, Lisa, Jessica, Nancy and many others whose names we failed to make note of, we literally cried leaving for the airport. We will NEVER forget our trip, will never stay anywhere else in Hoi An and will recommend this wonderful place over and over and over

I would say the stay at Little Hoi An was one of the best throughout our whole Vietnam trip, well maybe even better than any we had in Singapore. They had the best customer service, which me and my bf were really happy with. We were greeted with smiles and lots of useful information when we first checked in. All the staffs were really friendly and smiley, especially Hienn and Susan. The both of them were really helpful and went the extra miles to answer all of our needs, that really brightened our 3 nights stay there :) We had the deluxe room, though the view ain't that good, we thought that the room has a simple yet elegant decor. We were so satisfied with the room that we actually extended one more night to stay in Hoi An. The breakfast spread is not that large but definitely sufficient and really delicious. There's always staffs around to serve either bread, vietnamese crepe or iced coffee. Once again, we were overwhelmed by the awesome service rendered, really way better than what a typical 4 star hotel will offer. Lastly, the location is really awesome we thought, as we can always spend the evening walking from the romantic ancient town to our hotel. We enjoyed being near the locals, and yet able to enjoy the quiet moments with each other. Definitely going back to this hotel if we visit Hoi An in the future. Highly recommended!

Not to be missed... Maybe not 5 star, but ambience, peace, and superb staff are worth well more than what you'll spend. Make sure you book the river view deluxe... Patio looking over the river. Breakfast included, 5 minute walk across the bridge to the old town in Hoi An, you'll be sorry you're not staying longer. ( We extended by 2 days, for a total of 5 and were very sorry to leave.)The free local food sampling on premises daily between 4-5 pm ( weather permitting) kept us from checking out more of the local restaurants... Delicious! But when we did visit ... Excellent food, ridiculously low prices. Remo, the food and beverage manager, has excellent suggestions for tailors, restaurants, etc. Bring your favourite clothes to have copied... Extremely inexpensive, excellent tailors. Make sure you have at least 3-4 days for ordering, fitting etc. Do not go to the shops recommended by front staff... Definitely better out there, and their recommendations are due to the 30% kickback they get. Having tried a number of shops would recommend Silk Road, Zen Silk, and Byfas. There is a lovely leather shop on the main drag, Tran Phu, Hieu Da Leather...they can do leather or suede jackets, purses etc... Beautiful work and shockingly low prices. All within walking distance to the hotel. If we ever return to Southeast Asia, we'll make the trip here. Not to miss... A tuk tuk ride through old town, river cruise, and Cargo Restaurant. You won't be disappointed.

me and my wife are active hashers and great travellers. we have been travelling on a frequent basis to see different cultures,peoples, tribes and visited many countries.we have experienced stayng in 1 star up to 5star hotels but ving hung 1 hotel in hoi an vietnam is worth commenting.inspite of being a very old hotel with only 6 rooms all structures,flooring,walling,furnitures ect, were all constructed of mahagony timber which can be considered antique, they are well maintained,clean and room interior are real cosy. the few staffs are friendly and their ever willing to smile when we talk to them are an asset to the hotel.when asked where is the best place to eat cao lau and fried hoanh thanh[wonton]the staff without hesitation told us the shop and drew us the locality map direction.breakfast was satisfactory.we strongly this hotel to those who want to experience the hotel ambience with a difference.

We stayed here for 4 nights, the staff was veeeeery helpful. The room was big, and the bathroom as well. We had a balcony with a view. AC was working properly and had many options. The room itself was very clean and comfortable. The hotel is located in the middle of the old town, but it is very quiet, so the location is the best as it could be in Hoi An. Next to the hotel you can borrow motorcycle or bike. Breakfasts are very nice and variety of choices is surprising. In one word I hardly recommend this hotel either for short and long stay.

All the pictures on this site reflect the property very well. The location is amazing in that it is just 5 minutes walk to the riverside and 3 minutes to the center of the night market. Yet this hotel is in such a quiet location. Much of the noise is traffic related and the only traffic in front is generated by the hotel. Last is the food, my food expectations are fairly tolerant, so this place was gets hi marks for having both Western and Vietnamese/Asia menu items. I stuck to the Vietnamese food items and the cold local Larue bia, oh ya they always had plenty of ice on hand.

This hotel is in a great location for those looking to stay within close proximity to the Hoi An old town. It's a short walk across the bridge to reach all the restaurants and shops. We booked a Deluxe River View suite which was very well appointed and kept sparkling clean by staff each day, including the enormous sunken bathtub in the bathroom. The river view wasn't that much to look at, but since we spent most of our time walking through the old town that didn't really bother us. The room itself was lovely - very spacious - but probably a bit wasted on just the two of us, as there were two king/queen size beds in the room as well as a lounge area and bar and a little balcony that we simply never used. Would be great for a family though. Buffet breakfast was nice and the staff were helpful, although we did have some issues with the laundry service. We ended up waiting almost two days to get our laundry back and when we did, had a number of items missing that were never recovered during our stay. Probably not a problem for some, but when you're backpacking and travelling light those kinds of laundry delays and clothing losses can really put you in a bit of a pickle! All in all though, this was a pleasant place to stay and based on the room we stayed in I would certainly recommend it to families looking to stay close to town.

I loved the Pho Hoi 1 hotel. For $15 I had a spacious sunny room with windows looking out over my balcony to a lovely old , quiet lane. The room was clean, spacious, simply furnished and comfortable. The staff were so kind and helpful. Each night they brought me a flask of hot water so that I could make tea [you need to request this though]. The hotel is in the perfect location, just steps from the ancient town. There's no breakfast at the hotel, but I went to the Hoi An Roastery Coffee House around the corner and down a bit, at 135 Tran Phu Street for perfect coffee and pastries in a very cool setting. The hotel is also very quiet at night, so there's no problem with sleeping. Ming and the rest of the staff booked my tours at very fair prices. I will absolutely stay here again - it's simple but a really nice base for exploring Hoi An ancient town and the tons of great cafes there, as well as the ancient temple complex of 'My Son', and it's only 10 minutes by motorbike taxi to the beach.

we enjoyed our stay in thanh binh 1 hotel. the location on le loi street was central for shopping, sight seeing, eating, drinking and the compulsory when in hoi an - tailors!! the staff were friendly and helpful and although some of the reviews on agoda complained of damp problems our rooms were perfect and they have renovation works ongoing presently so don't let those reviews put you off!! one negative - although breakfast was included, you had to make your way to the sister hotel before 9 am, which we never did.
