I am having second thoughts… 🙁 I have booked 7 nights in Da Nang and 3 nights in Hoi An. Now I’m thinking, should I move one day to Hoi An or leave it like that? Oh, I’m doing Hue separatelly. My idea is to stay in one place for at least some time, when possible, and I was thinking, since Da Nang is a bigger city, that would be perfect to relax for a while. Am I doing it right? There’s still time to rebook 😃

They are only about 20-30 minutes apart by scooter or taxi
Hoi An is much better, my next trip will be to spend more time there, we didn’t see much in Da Nang apart from the Dragon bridge and Ba Na Hills.
Split in half. Personally we liked Hoi An but you can find things to do in both places, spit it
I would only do 2 nights max in Hoi An, do a day at An Bang beach, Danang is the place to be and base yourself there
Flip it. Hoi An is way better than that Danang. I had actually scheduled myself to spend three nights in Danang and I left after the first. I couldn’t stand it. It’s like any modern shiny city. It didn’t feel like it had a soul 
Hoi An is okay, but there are more foreigners than locals. As I prefer it the other way around I rather stay in Da Nang. Personal taste of course.
It’s a personal thing. I know people who love Da Nang…not me though. I enjoy Hoi An, it is smaller easier to get around. I like Hue too. However, there is a few like me who really like Dong Hoi. Check it out on maps and YouTube. Wherever you go in Vietnam, enjoy.
