Anantara Hoi An Resort is at 1 Pham Hong Thai Street, right on the calm bank of the Thu Bon river and only a few steps from the Hoi An Old Town pedestrian area. Unlike the coastal resorts strung along the road between Da Nang and Hoi An, Anantara sits directly beside the heritage centre. When you book a private car from Da Nang International Airport to the resort, the key points to check are the traffic rules and the place where the car can stop during the hours when vehicles are restricted in the Old Town.
Access to the resort lobby and the pedestrian-zone rules
Pham Hong Thai street lies on the eastern edge of the Hoi An Old Town:
- Cars right up to the resort gate: The main entrance of Anantara Hoi An Resort lies outside the fully car-free area of the pedestrian zone, so Sun Travel cars always drive up to the drop-off step in front of the reception, letting you unload your luggage easily.
- Walking into the Old Town: From the resort, walk along the Bach Dang riverside for about 5 to 7 minutes to reach the centre of the Old Town, with the Hoi An market and the lantern-lit streets.
- Booking a car in the evening: During the hours when cars and motorbikes are restricted in the Old Town (15:00 to 21:30), if you want a car for dinner or for sightseeing outside, the driver will pick you up at the resort lobby or at a nearby meeting point agreed in advance. See the guide to where to catch your private car in Hoi An at night for the most convenient stopping points.
