User:(WT-en) DALAT TOURISM

Dalat is not Nha Trang, or HCMc: all the toursit destinations are not in the center: waterfalls, "Valley of Love", Langbian Mountain...about 7 to 20km far away from the center city! If you visit Nha Trang, you must definitely stay near the beach (Tran Phu Street) or in the island for cleaner water, tranquil..., HCMc: Western Town...but not in the center of Dalat (near the market).

The main purpose for guests to visit Dalat is relax, enjoy the cool fresh natural air, peaceful, tranquil or the historic of French Colonial NOT modern entertainments, not market, not noise and not polutted air!

As my experience, you should find the hotel NEAR THE CENTER not IN the center (Dalat is very small town), with good services, luxury, reasonable price BUT DO NOT stay in cheap hotel.

For me, vacation is enjoyable; relax so I need good sleep, good service and warm service as my home.

And remember to ask the price before buy anythings.

IF you want to discover new things, go as tour: city tour, trekking, climbing, discovering...or you can go as EASY RIDER or if you can ride motorbike, better rent: manual: 60.000d/day or automatic: 80 000d/day (the hotel rent for me bc this the cheapest price in Dalat) but you must have your driving license!

Airport transfer: Airport Shutle Bus: comfortable. big bus very cheap price about 3$/way.

Taxi: only Thang Loi 05: cheapest: 180 000vnd/way. The others: more than 300 000vnd/way.

So, I so regret to stay in the hotel in the center (near market): I can not sleep at all; too noisy, too crowded and not clean even I paid $27 for a Deluxe room of a 2 star hotel. The bed is so hard to sleep, the blanket is old, smell & not clean. The others guests are very noisy even at mid night (they drunk)

I visited the Ana Mandara Resort but the price for me is very expensive compare with the service $270++/ room, so I can’t move there. But, fortunately, I found the YK HOME LUXURY VILLA. It's a Luxury Villa or 2 star hotel. It's new, simple, luxury villa, very tranquil, good service. They served us as our real HOME.

It's very nice, decorated with all natural Cherry wood furniture, very comfortable bed.
