Picolo recommends · Hotel in Hoi An, Vietnam
Moire Hoi An
Yellow walls on the Thu Bon, a pool by the water and the old town glowing on the far bank once the lanterns are lit.
Moire looks at Hoi An from across the water. The buildings are painted in the warm yellow you see all over the old town, and the restaurant and pool sit right on the bank of the Thu Bon.
Cross one of the bridges and you are in the centre within minutes. Come back, and the river and its boats are what you look at from your terrace, with the old town lit up on the other side.
Picolo’s verdict
Why we chose Moire Hoi An
It suits travellers who want to be near the old town without sleeping in the middle of it. You get the view of Hoi An rather than its crowds.
The river is busy in the evening, and the boats bring their own sound. If you want real quiet, a beach hotel outside town will serve you better.
