Since mid-2025 Hội An's official addresses read 'Đà Nẵng city', but the heritage town and the coastal city are still two different places to stay. This guide sets out what official pages say each base offers, what the 2025 merger changed and what it did not, and what XTOUR does not know.

This article shows what the official pages say, old and new, and what XTOUR does and does not infer from them.
