Rare 5-story low-rise design amidst a sea of skyscrapers
Peaceful garden pool that feels like a private oasis
Directly across from My Khe Beach (just cross the street)
Quick Take: A charming, slightly older auntie of a hotel that offers a garden respite from Da Nang's construction boom, provided you don't expect brand-new modernism.
Reviewed by @comeflywithlove: I stayed in the Deluxe Double Sea View Room and honestly, the balcony was my favorite spot. The room is super modern and clean, but nothing beats waking up to that ocean breeze right outside your window. Definitely ask for a high floor for the best view!
Guest Who Stayed Here Said
The hype
Travelers love the 'resort' feel of the garden and the friendly staff, often rating it higher than newer, colder high-rises.
Reality check
The furniture and decor are showing their age compared to the shiny new towers nearby, and the breakfast coffee is often reported as lukewarm.
You hate waiting for elevators in 30-story towers
You prefer a green, garden atmosphere over a concrete rooftop
You want easy beach access without the 'mega-hotel' chaos
Cleanliness & Maintenance
8.8
Housekeeping: Consistent and praised. Daily cleaning is thorough, though some aging grout is inevitable.
Bathroom hygiene: Generally spotless, but watch for slow drains in older rooms.
Maintenance: Good, but the building is aging. You might find a scuffed wall or a loose handle.
Linens & towels: Fresh and crisp, though towels can be on the thinner side compared to 5-star chains.
Odors & scents: Neutral to fresh; no lingering smoke smells reported in non-smoking rooms.

Before you book
Good to know
The pool is in the garden (ground level), not on the roof. It's shaded and quieter.
Breakfast is a buffet with a mix of Asian and Western, but the coffee station is a weak point.
Grab taxis are plentiful and cheap; you don't need a rental car.
What to pack
Earplugs (essential for sea-facing rooms)
Slip-on sandals for the quick walk across the street to the beach
Universal travel adapter (Type A, C, or F plugs used in Vietnam)
Room Genie
Best picks
Deluxe Sea View (High Floor): Best views, though noisier. The balcony is small but usable.
Nesta Suite (72sqm): Massive value for families, separate living area.
Rooms to avoid
Superior Rooms on lower floors facing the back: Can be dark and lack privacy.
Rooms directly facing the northern neighbor (Nesta Celia) if you want to avoid staring at a concrete wall.
Room Request Genie – copy & paste
“I am booking the [Room Type] and would kindly request a room on the highest possible floor (4th or 5th) to minimize street noise. If available, a south-facing orientation would be preferred to avoid the direct view of the neighboring building.”
FAQ & Hidden tips
Everything you actually want to know before you book.
Is this the hotel with the rooftop infinity pool?
No. That is the 'Nesta Celia' next door. Nesta Hotel Da Nang has a ground-floor garden pool.
How far is the beach?
Literally across the street. Less than a 2-minute walk from lobby to sand.
Is breakfast included?
Usually yes, and it's a robust buffet. Check your specific booking rate to be sure.
Can I walk to restaurants?
Yes, the My An area is packed with seafood spots, cafes, and western eateries within a 5-10 minute walk.
Is there an elevator?
Yes, though the building is only 5 floors, so the stairs are also a viable option if it's busy.
Does the hotel organize airport transfers?
Yes, for a fee (approx. 150k-200k VND), but a Grab car is often cheaper and faster.
Insider Tips
✨
The 'Garden View' rooms are often quieter than the 'Sea View' rooms because they don't face the main road.
✨
Walk two blocks inland to the 'An Thuong' tourist streets for better coffee than the hotel offers.
✨
The hotel spa often has 'Happy Hour' discounts posted in the elevator—snap a pic and use it.
