Da Nang’s Packo Hostel is emerging as an interesting dwelling for young tourists, especially backpacker visitors.  Located at 44 Lam Hoanh in Son Tra District, it is only 2 minutes’ walk from Pham Van Dong Beach.

An overview of Packo Hostel

Taking inspiration from shipping container architecture, the hostel is entirely made from stacked shipping containers in a unique design. 

At first glance, Packo Hostel looks like a colourful shipping container village.  Staying in shipping container dorms, guests will be brought closer to the natural world.  The hostel capitalises on its fantastic location and unique design with a central courtyard where guests can enjoy open-air dinner and play all of their favourite music.

Each container room features a double bed, or 2-fold out bunk beds which can offer sleeping areas up to 8 people.  In addition, guests will not feel hot because the rooms are installed with modern and synchronous thermal insulation materials.

Built under the concept of an environmental friendly and nature conserving design, Packo is not just a bedding service, it is a place where visitors can enjoy real local experiences amongst new friends.  In particular, they can participate in a local-dish cooking class at the hostel, go to a nearby local fish market, take a short food tour on bikes around the city, take part in a day of farming for home growns, and enjoy a night of wandering the seaside city.

With its ideal location and comfortable apartments, Packo Hostel is the perfect place for young people who may find themselves and friends on the road of adventures.
