voco Ma Belle Danang by IHG

We recommend the voco to families and couples seeking a seaside stay in Da Nang with excursions to Hoi An, not an anchorage in the old town. The hotel suits travellers who prioritise the beach and modern facilities (pool, spa, gym) over the authenticity of a boutique hotel. Family rooms and free Wi-Fi appeal for stays of five days or more with children.

The voco Ma Belle occupies a contemporary glass and white concrete tower on the My Khe corniche, recent construction in standardised IHG style. Bright lobby with double height, marble floor, lacquered wood furniture. Rooms measure 32 to 45 m² depending on category, flowing balconies, sliding glass bays. Neutral beige and white decor, a few red lacquer touches at the bedhead, nothing signature but a correct finish.

The main restaurant offers international buffets at breakfast (eggs cooked to order, pho, dim sum, pastries) and an Asian-Western fusion menu in the evening. Rooftop bar with bay views, classic cocktails and local beers, open until midnight. Room service available 24/7, reduced menu after 10pm. Nothing gastronomic, but an honest offering for an IHG of this category.

The voco stands on Vo Nguyen Giap Street, Da Nang’s coastal artery facing My Khe beach, 8 km from the international airport (15 minutes by taxi). The neighbourhood is seaside, a line of hotels and resorts, seafood restaurants along the waterfront. Hoi An lies 25 km south (35 minutes), the Marble Mountains 10 km. The area is quiet mid-week, livelier at weekends with Vietnamese families. No metro in Da Nang, rely on taxis or scooter rental.
