Colonial garden refuge
Arched colonnades and lotus-dotted lawns create a quiet garden enclave just a short walk from the historic trading port.
Where it shines
Listed
Colonial-style pavilions set across the grounds of a former French administrative post.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
The UNESCO-protected Ancient Town and the Central Market are a five-minute walk down Tran Hung Dao.
The rooms
Dark wood furnishings ground the bedrooms, and private balconies open onto the lawns or the central pool.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The central freshwater pool is ringed by palm trees, sun loungers, and an integrated whirlpool.
The spa and lawn
Morning exercise sessions take place across the central lawn, and White Lotus Spa offers traditional herbal bodywork.
Restaurant
The Oaks Terrace
Central Vietnamese specialties like cao lau and white rose dumplings are served on an open-air terrace overlooking the gardens.
At the table
Wrought-iron tables sit beneath shady trees and hanging lanterns for casual regional dining in the garden courtyard.
How it began
Opened in 1991 as one of Hoi An's first hotels, the property occupies a former French administrative post.
