For most Indian travellers, the best area to stay in Da Nang is An Thuong / My An, beside My Khe Beach. It combines the city’s densest cluster of Indian restaurants with beach access and walkable cafés, so you get your daily curry and the sand in one place. If the beach or the city nightlife matters more to you, My Khe and the Han River are the two other areas worth knowing.
A simple, central choice in the heart of the An Thuong food zone is the Palazzo Cozy Hotel & Spa on An Thuong Walking Street, steps from several Indian restaurants.
The three main areas at a glance
An Thuong / My An — best for Indian food
An Thuong holds the most Indian restaurants in Da Nang — Maharaja, Veda’s Kitchen, Himalaya, Mumtaz, Bhojan, the halal-certified Lazeez and the Michelin-listed RANG — almost all reachable on foot, with vegetarian, Jain-on-request and halal options across them. The whole food strip is walkable end to end in about 8–12 minutes, and My Khe Beach is a 3–10 minute walk away. For most Indian travellers, this is the area to choose.

Palazzo Cozy — central in the food strip
On An Thuong Walking Street, steps from Maharaja, Himalaya and the rest of the cluster, with the beach a short walk away. The easiest base if you want Indian meals on foot.
LIVIE Da Nang An Thuong — best for families
A serviced apartment in An Thuong with a kitchen, so you and your family can cook your own vegetarian or Jain meals between restaurant visits — handy for longer stays or for parents travelling with children.
Golden Lotus Grand — upscale, with a pool
A newer four-star hotel inside the An Thuong food zone with a rooftop infinity pool and a strong breakfast — the step up if you want a pool and a view while staying within walking distance of the Indian restaurants.
My Khe beachfront — best for a beach-first stay
If sea views and stepping straight onto the sand matter most, the beachfront hotels along Vo Nguyen Giap on My Khe Beach are the pick. You are still only a 5–15 minute walk (or a short Grab ride) from the An Thuong Indian restaurants, so you do not lose your daily curry by choosing the beach.
A La Carte Da Nang Beach — beachfront with a rooftop
A popular beachfront hotel on My Khe with a well-known rooftop bar and sea-view rooms, many with kitchenettes that suit families. Right on the beach, with the An Thuong Indian cluster a short walk inland.
Han River / city centre — best for nightlife and sightseeing
The Han River side (Hai Chau) is Da Nang’s city centre, home to the Dragon Bridge, the night scene, markets and shopping. It is the choice if sightseeing and nightlife come first; for Indian food, you are a short taxi ride from the An Thuong cluster rather than walking distance.
Novotel Danang Premier Han River — central, by the river
A high-rise hotel on the Han River with a rooftop and river-view rooms, an easy walk to the Dragon Bridge, riverside dining and nightlife. The most central choice if the city, not the beach, is your focus.
Booking tips for Indian travellers in Da Nang
- Choose An Thuong for food, the beach for views. An Thuong puts the Indian restaurants on foot; My Khe beachfront trades a 5–15 minute walk for sea views; the Han River is best for the city and nightlife.
- Message the hotel ahead for Jain meals. Several An Thuong kitchens prepare Jain food without onion or garlic with notice — confirm before you arrive.
- Check for a hot-water geyser and request an extra cot. Confirm the room has a hot-water geyser and ask for an extra cot if you are travelling with children.
- Consider a serviced apartment for families. A unit with a kitchen lets larger families cook their own vegetarian meals and keep costs down on a longer stay.
- Book a no-hidden-charges, free-cancellation rate. A major platform shows the full price upfront, and most Da Nang hotels have English-speaking reception.

Which area of Da Nang is best for Indian travellers?
An Thuong / My An, beside My Khe Beach, is the best area for most Indian travellers. It has the city’s densest cluster of Indian restaurants on walkable streets, plus beach access and cafés, so daily Indian meals and the beach are both within reach without a taxi.
Is it better to stay on My Khe Beach or in An Thuong?

Yes, Indian passport holders need a visa for mainland Vietnam, and most apply for the Vietnam e-visa online on the official government portal before the trip. You will usually fly into Da Nang Airport, so apply about two weeks ahead, pay the fee online, and carry a printed copy for immigration.
