Hanoi to Da Nang Destination Reviews

Service to get to the coach was good. Everything was done properly and on time. The issue started with the cabin, which was filthy. We had to use wipes to clean the dirty footprints off the floor. The compartment above the door for bags, was also dirty. After about half an hour of cleaning we felt able to put our bags away. There was a lamp and a fake plant on the table which were so dirty, we had to put them on the floor. Yes, the carriages are old and a bit noisy, but this is not a problems. We've travelled on trains in Africa. Cleaning is a basic function that was just not done and looked like it had not been done for some time. I cannot recommend this train service, especially for the €500 it cost. Toilets and wash basins were clean. Beds were simply too hard and uncomfortable. We will have to do the return journey as we have booked it, but we won't use this service again. Far too dirty.

After choosing to travel on the sleeper bus from Hanoi to Da Nang, i decided to choose HK Buslines as i thought it would be the best After messaging the company in the morning asking if we had a toilet on the bus, they replied with no, but promising two stops for toilets. This was not the case, we didn’t stop once, except for when the driver wanted a cigarette, which he was the only person who was let out, this is totally unfair as we could not eat on the bus. We stopped at a petrol station which had food and toilets. The actual bus is lovely, comfy, and quiet. Not much point of the tv though as didn’t have anything on it, my partner didn’t even have a remote.

The operator G8 sapa open tour advertises free pickup and drop but will Never provider free pickup and drop. Its just a marketing strategy and a Scam.

The overall experience was great - USB port & entertainment system didn’t work in my cabin but made zero difference to my trip. Make sure you pack a portable charging bank. Long trip from Hanoi to Da Nang tok around 13 hours. No trouble sleeping and I could stretch right out - cabin is 1.75m in length. The pick up point was chaotic but somehow the system just works - just be patient & they will call your name when your bus arrives. The bus licence plate is printed on your ticket & is also printed on the side of the bus at the rear making it easy to identify. My bus had an on-board toilet for convenience. Overall a great & fun experience.

So many Cockroaches and insects in the train, and not clean. Train kitchen staff don't speak English at all so it's difficult to communicate. Seats not well maintained.. not worth for the money.

They told us rhe bus is overbucked which wasnt correct. They told us a wrong pick up point via e-mail. After a few calls we got the right one, but had to rush by taxi. We then got into a non vip bus and our luggage got wet in the luggage boxes. After a two hour drive we had to change the bus in a very stressful way. During the overnight drive various people looked in our cabins if we were asleep. We wouldnt choose this company again. It was overall very chaotic.

The check in service was very good. We travelled First Class to have a cabin to ourselves. The cleanliness of the bathrooms were fairly well maintained throughout the duration of the journey. The beds were very hard. The pillows provided were also hard and too bulky to be useful for sleep, although came in handy for back support when sitting. Although rock and roll movement is expected on a train journey, the carriage was very noisy (constant squeaks and bangs) even with good esrplugs. Additional noise from fellow travellers with children is not something that can be controlled by the service, but it might be worth paying extra for Premium if you would prefer to avoid this. The views in the morning were excellent.

Tipping taxi drivers in Da Nang is not a common practice, but it is appreciated. Most fares include the cost of the ride, and drivers don’t expect additional tips. However, rounding up to the nearest 10,000 VND or leaving small change is seen as courteous, especially for good service. Some taxi companies, such as Mai Linh or Vinasun, have consistent pricing and reliable drivers. If you receive exceptional service, such as help with heavy luggage or efficient route navigation, a modest tip is a kind gesture. Keep in mind that cash is preferred since digital tipping options may not be available.

Standard tipping: Rounding up the fare.
Cash tips are most appreciated.
Helpful for exceptional service but not required.

Offering a tip is entirely at your discretion but shows gratitude in a way drivers understand.

The decision depends on lifestyle preferences, work, and climate. Hanoi, Vietnam’s capital, offers rich history, cultural landmarks, and a larger urban economy, making it ideal for career opportunities and experiencing northern traditions. However, its traffic congestion and cooler winters may deter some. Da Nang, a coastal city, provides a more relaxed lifestyle with clean beaches, modern infrastructure, and a warmer, tropical climate. It’s popular among expats seeking a balance between work and leisure, especially with its proximity to UNESCO sites like Hoi An and My Son.

Hanoi: Capital, cultural hub, cooler climate.
Da Nang: Coastal, relaxed, warmer weather.
Key factors: career, climate, lifestyle.

Both cities offer distinct advantages, so evaluate personal priorities when choosing.

Closing times in Da Nang vary by business type. Restaurants and coffee shops generally close around 9 PM to 10 PM, though some street food vendors may stay open later. Shopping malls like Vincom Plaza usually close by 9:30 PM. Bars and nightclubs in the My Khe Beach area often stay open until midnight or later, depending on demand. For tourist attractions, such as the Marble Mountains or the Dragon Bridge, visits typically end by 6 PM or after the evening light shows.

Restaurants: Close by 9–10 PM.
Malls: Typically close around 9:30 PM.
Bars/clubs: Midnight or later.

Plan activities accordingly to maximize your time and consider confirming hours for specific venues to avoid inconvenience.
