The original hotel is a 125-year-old Chinese trader's home, a block from Hoi An's Japanese, covered bridge on Tran Phu Street. Those who really want to soak up Hoi An's architectural flavour can stay in one of the two second-storey rooms in the original wooden house. Furnished with antique furniture and oriental rugs, although a bit dark and threadbare, these rooms are the real thing. Renovated in 2008, the air-conditioned city hotel offers just 6 rooms in total and welcomes guests into a lobby with a hotel safe and currency exchange facilities. Youngers guests are sure to enjoy the children's playground. Guests are also offered use of a cafe, a restaurant, WLAN Internet access, and room and laundry services. The reception is available 24 hours a day. When leaving the hotel, the room key should be dropped off at the reception desk but it is not necessary.
