Really enjoy this one Clare! I circled back to it as I’ll be traveling to HoiAn for the last weeks of October. ❣️ if you were only there for one week, do you recommend staying in the Old Town or on the beach?
Normally, I'd say: An Bang. But late October, the weather might be rainy or even stormy. There might be a typhoon. So to be on the safe side, I'd book an accommodation in part of the old town that doesn't flood (I don't know the streets exactly but you can look this up) and in a building that can resist a bit of wind and that offers free bicycles (most do). It's only a leisurely 30 min to the beach on a bicycle.
Thanks Clare, yes not exactly the most ideal time of year for a trip there. I’ll be up in the mountains before but wanted to spend time in Hoi An before leaving Vietnam.
