Some visitors choose An Thuong in Da Nang for the restaurants and the night market on its pedestrian streets. Others want a room where they can sleep through the night. In An Thuong (An Thượng), the two wishes share the same few streets.
This guide sets out where the An Thuong tourist quarter begins and ends, what a night in a hotel or a month in an apartment costs, what a meal costs, what has been said about noise and what the city has said about parking.
Where An Thuong is and what counts as the quarter
Before you book a room or sign a lease, it helps to know what the name An Thuong covers. The An Thuong tourist quarter (khu phố du lịch An Thượng) is the area bounded by Vo Nguyen Giap, Hoang Ke Viem, Chau Thi Vinh Te and Ngo Thi Si streets, and since July 1, 2025 it has been part of Ngu Hanh Son ward (phường Ngũ Hành Sơn).
The city's tourism portal reported on February 1, 2018 that the city had approved a plan for the quarter, Decision 489/QD-UBND. The portal's article describes the quarter as bounded by four street sections: Vo Nguyen Giap (170 m), Hoang Ke Viem (850 m), Chau Thi Vinh Te (170 m) and Ngo Thi Si (850 m), with a total area, beach included, of 0.15 square kilometers (about 0.06 square miles). The Ngu Hanh Son district government formally opened the quarter's tourist street on April 28, 2022. Thanh Nien newspaper still placed the quarter within the same four streets in March 2024, and wrote that locals commonly call it the Western quarter (phố Tây).
Thanh Nien reported in March 2024 that the pedestrian streets and night market were held on An Thuong 1, 2, 3 and 4 streets, on Hoang Ke Viem from Vo Nguyen Giap to Le Quang Dao, and on Tran Bach Dang from Do Ba to Ngo Thi Si. SGGP wrote in July 2023 that the pedestrian street covers six streets paved with natural basalt on the sidewalks and the roadway. Street numbers run well past 4: a hotel listing gives An Thuong 29 and a restaurant listing gives An Thuong 30 as the street.
The quarter is also a project site. Dan Tri reported on October 7, 2026 that the project's investor said phase 1 is finished and that phase 2, set for 2024–2027, is expected to finish at the end of 2027. After inspecting the site, the vice chairman of the Da Nang People's Committee asked for the phase 2 plan to be studied again: the water-music floor is no longer a priority, and the Department of Construction is to work with Ngu Hanh Son ward's People's Committee to survey a site for a public car park combined with a park. City leaders asked the investor and the consultant to submit the adjusted design in November 2026. The report gives no dates for work on the streets.
What a room or a month costs
Hotels here are priced by the night on booking sites and apartments by the month in classified ads, so the figures below come from those two kinds of pages.
On Booking.com, a search for "An Thuong, Da Nang" run on October 26, 2026 for the night of November 11–12, for two adults in one room, listed four properties with "An Thuong" in their names. Three had rooms for that night: Lagom Boutique Hotel Da Nang - An Thuong Area, LAGOM APARTMENT AND HOTEL - AN THUONG Area and THE GRACE Smart Living An Thuong, with starting prices of 845,640–1,023,329 VND (about US$33–39.5); the page did not say whether taxes and fees were included. The fourth, LIVIE Da Nang An Thuong, was shown as unavailable on Booking for those dates. The names are the properties' own, so they do not show which street each one is on.
A hotel-listing site, hotelsdanang.com, showed starting prices for the night of October 27–28, the dates the page displayed when read on October 26, 2026: 410,256 VND (about US$16) at San San Hotel Da Nang, listed at 54 An Thuong 26 street, and 487,179 VND (about US$19) at Jolia Hotel Danang Beach, listed at 35–37 An Thuong 29. The site describes them as 400 m and 300 m from My Khe Beach (bãi biển Mỹ Khê). One private travel site, updated September 21, 2026, with rates checked in August 2026, puts a boutique hotel or an apartment at US$25–60 a night. For how An Thuong compares with the Han River, Son Tra and Hoi An, see the where to stay in Da Nang guide.
Monthly rents come from classified ads and listing sites read on October 26, 2026. They are asking prices, not what tenants pay, and each ad is placed in An Thuong or near My Khe Beach by its title or address. The table groups them by size of unit.
| Unit | Asking rent a month | Ads behind the range |
|---|---|---|
| Studio | 9,000,000–10,000,000 VND (about US$349–388) | A 35 m² studio on An Thuong 6 and a 40 m² studio near My Khe Beach |
| One bedroom | 12,000,000–16,500,000 VND (about US$465–640) | 35 m² on Le Quang Dao, 45 m² in the An Thuong area, and a furnished unit on An Thuong 19 |
| Two bedrooms | 17,000,000 VND (about US$659) | One ad: 62 m² on Le Quang Dao |
The 16,500,000 VND (about US$640) one-bedroom ad lists three charges on top of the rent: electricity at 4,000 VND (about US$0.16) per kWh, water at 1,500,000 VND (about US$58) per person, and a service fee of 200,000 VND (about US$8) a month. It does not say how often the water charge is billed. One private travel site says a one-bedroom is often quoted to foreigners at 14 million to 19 million VND (about US$543–736) when Vietnamese tenants pay 6 million to 9 million VND (about US$233–349); that is one site's claim, not a measured gap.
For leases, deposits and what the law says about landlords, see the renting in Da Nang guide. For a desk, ACE Coworking Space is at 12 Tran Van Du Street, which its website places right outside the heart of the An Thuong area, and HIVE is at 48 An Thuong 5; the coworking guide lists their prices.
Eating and drinking: what a meal costs
Prices differ between a Western restaurant, a rice shop and a café, so the figures below show one printed menu and a set of average-spend ranges listed on Foody.
Cucina Luca, an Italian restaurant at 5 An Thuong 7 street, publishes its menu online and says the menu changes daily. The table shows items from the page read on October 26, 2026, which did not say whether tax or a service charge is included.
| Item | Price |
|---|---|
| Luca's Bruschetta | 180,000 VND (about US$7) |
| Seafood Spaghetti | 310,000 VND (about US$12) |
| Roast Beef & Pepeverde | 490,000 VND (about US$19) |
| Tiger beer | 45,000 VND (about US$1.5) |
| Peroni beer | 75,000 VND (about US$3) |
| Aperol Spritz | 190,000 VND (about US$7.5) |
| Espresso | 40,000 VND (about US$1.5) |
That is one restaurant's menu on one day, so it shows a price level, not an average.
Foody, a Vietnamese restaurant-review site, lists an average spend per person for each place. Its pages show no update date and do not say how the range was set. The table gives four places on An Thuong streets and on Hoang Ke Viem, read on October 26, 2026.
| Place | Average per person on Foody |
|---|---|
| Cơm Nhà Linh (rice meals), 35 An Thuong 26 | 25,000–70,000 VND (about US$1–2.5) |
| Bingo Milktea & Tea (café), 5 Hoang Ke Viem | 22,000–35,000 VND (about US$1–1.5) |
| Hang's Kitchen (Western and Mexican), 36 An Thuong 12 | 50,000–120,000 VND (about US$2–4.5) |
| L'italiano - Pizza & Hamburger (Italian), Lot 44 An Thuong 30 | 25,000–200,000 VND (about US$1–8) |
Treat the ranges as a rough guide, not as menu prices.
For curry, see the Indian restaurants in Da Nang guide, which includes Dhaba 28 on An Thuong 3 and Maharaja Indian Restaurant on An Thuong 2. For sandwiches, the banh mi guide covers 2 Ladies Kitchen at 28 An Thuong 4, where banh mi sandwiches cost 50,000–85,000 VND (about US$2–3.5) on its menu updated in August 2026.
Eco Green Cafe & Bistro, at the same address as the Eco Green Boutique Hotel, 1 An Thuong 3, is open from 8:00 am to 8:00 pm, according to its website.
The An Thuong Night Market (chợ đêm An Thượng) opened as a pilot in July 2023 on the sidewalk of Tran Bach Dang Street (Trần Bạch Đằng). SGGP placed it between La Xuan Oai and Hoang Ke Viem streets; Thanh Nien's 2024 list gives a different stretch of the same street, from Do Ba to Ngo Thi Si. The market's hours were announced as 6:00 to 11:00 pm daily at the opening, and its listed hours on October 3, 2026 were 6:00 to 11:00 pm every day. Visitors were still posting reviews of it in September 2026, and one, in a review posted that month, found some sellers pushy. The Da Nang night markets guide covers the others.
Noise: what hotels have said and what the rules say
Noise is the complaint hotels here have put on the record, so it helps to know what was said and which rules apply.
In November 2023, Van Hoa newspaper reported that many hotels in the An Thuong night-street area had complained about conflict between noise and guests' need for rest. A deputy director of the Da Nang Department of Tourism acknowledged that, after the pilot period, the noise problems visitors reported were real; the report added that some guests had checked out and moved to other hotels because they could not stand the noise from the night street. The deputy director said the department had paused the music points at the night markets for review.
In the same 2023 report, the then vice chairman of Ngu Hanh Son district's People's Committee said the parties had agreed that lodging businesses would invest more in soundproofing and that businesses must keep sound at the level the rules set. The Department of Natural Resources and Environment was to help the district manage noise in the tourist quarter. In March 2026, Bao Da Nang, the Da Nang party committee's newspaper, described the quarter's bars and pubs as brightly lit but not very noisy. Neither account measures noise, and they come from different years.
Two national rules changed in late 2025. Environment Magazine reported that Circular 01/2025/TT-BNNMT, issued on May 15, 2025, took effect on November 14, 2025 and issued the new national noise standard, QCVN 26:2025/BNNMT, in place of the 2010 version; facilities already operating, and projects already approved, before that date may keep applying the old standards until the end of December 2026. Van Hoa newspaper reported on March 10, 2026 that Decree 282/2025/ND-CP took effect on December 15, 2025 and allows fines for noise that disturbs public order at any time of day, whereas before, enforcement often ran into the 10:00 pm time limit or a lack of measuring equipment.
This guide suggests asking a hotel, before you book, whether its rooms are soundproofed and whether the room you get faces the pedestrian streets or the Tran Bach Dang night market, and choosing a quieter side if you have the choice.
Getting around and parking
Plan where a car or motorbike will stay before you arrive, because city leaders have said the area is short of parking.
On October 7, 2026, Dan Tri reported that city leaders said the area is short of green space, parking and public space, and the vice chairman said a tourist area cannot be without a car park. The Van Hoa newspaper's report of May 13, 2025 on the phase 2 plan said parking for tourists would be arranged on the sidewalk of Mai Thuc Lan street; the October 2026 report does not mention that site.
When the pedestrian street opened in July 2023, vehicles were banned from some of its streets at set times. At the opening, the vice chairman of Ngu Hanh Son district's People's Committee asked the ward and the quarter's management board to keep telling residents and visitors when vehicles are banned and to post staff on the streets closed to traffic; the SGGP report does not give the hours or the streets. In Ngu Hanh Son, local security staff also remind visitors to follow traffic rules on rented motorbikes, Bao Da Nang reported on October 2, 2026; see the motorbike rental guide before you hire one.
Safety and who to call
It helps to know who patrols the quarter and which number to call.
Bao Da Nang reported on October 2, 2026 that the quarter has 54 grassroots security teams with 224 members, working with the ward police. The report describes staffing, not crime levels. The head of the Son Tra Peninsula and Tourist Beaches Management Board said 47 staff of the tourism order team work day and night, including a shift from 10:00 pm to 5:00 am, and that 32 inter-agency members are split into 8 patrol teams in coastal wards including Ngu Hanh Son.
The Tourist Support Center (Trung tâm Hỗ trợ du khách) of the Da Nang Tourism Promotion Center runs the hotline *8899. In the first nine months of 2026 it handled 3,190 calls to the hotline and, with other agencies, helped resolve 101 cases involving lost documents, hotel booking problems, service prices, getting lost and drivers' behavior. These figures cover the whole city.
Sources and how we checked
We used Vietnamese newspapers, the city's tourism portal and a National Assembly resolution for boundaries, plans, noise and security, the websites of hotels and restaurants for menus, opening hours and photos, and booking and listing sites for room prices and rents, all read on October 26, 2026, except details reused from other guides on this site, which were checked October 3–5, 2026. Prices are asking or listed prices, not what customers paid. Newspaper reports of the base fine under Decree 282/2025 differ, so this guide gives no fine amounts. We found no published parking fee schedule for the quarter, no hours for the vehicle bans, no official distance from the quarter to the beach, no news report of flooding on named An Thuong streets, no news report of theft or scams specific to An Thuong from 2024 to 2026, and no noise measurements for the quarter. US dollar amounts use Vietcombank's transfer rate of 25,800 VND per US$ on October 1, 2026, rounded to the nearest cent below US$1, US$0.5 up to US$100, US$1 up to US$10,000 and US$1,000 above that.
