Binh Duong III

Well, this place is a real gem. The hotel itself is in a quiet side street next to a road that leads quickly into the thick of things. They saved us from the voracious taxi drivers at the bus station by being there to collect us, (without needing to be asked), the tour they recommended was excellent value, the staff were incredibly helpful and very friendly, and the room (get this!)had a computer rigged to the internet, as well as being clean comfortable, with it's own en suite....all for $20!
Best deal I've come across so far, by a running mile.

So my Hue visit was kinda ruined by this cold. Fortunately, I was comforted by the BEST HOTEL BARGAIN on my trip, and probably in all of VN.

First, my Rough Guide to Vietnam (Sept 2006) has been great and right on with a lot of recommendations. I will certainly look at them now before Lonely Planet guides.

Binh Duong III was 1 of the highlighted Rough Guide picks for hotels in Hue. The room was one of the cleanest and nicest I’ve seen so far, and better than many hotel rooms I’ve stayed in California that cost over $100. A Balcony with a view, huge windows, nice bathroom and furniture, and get this - a computer IN YOUR ROOM with internet access. $15.

This was a great room to wind up being sick with a cold in. (until of course it crashed this post)
