Can you rent a place in Da Nang for two weeks while looking for a long-term apartment, or should you book a hotel?

TL;DR

In Da Nang, regular apartments are usually not rented for just two weeks, so hotels or serviced apartments are the practical option because they can handle guest registration. If you book through a platform, a listed deposit is often not actually requested, but you should confirm it with the specific property and booking method.

What the community said

For a two-week stay in Da Nang, expect to use a hotel or an aparthotel rather than a standard apartment rental. Many landlords avoid such short lets because they need to complete guest registration.

2 weeks; hotel or aparthotel

If your plan is to arrive first and search for a long-term place on the ground, it makes more sense to start with a quiet budget hotel and then inspect longer-term rentals in person.

Even if a hotel listing on Trip says a deposit is required, in practice it is often not collected. Still, this depends on the specific hotel in Da Nang and the exact booking channel or rate.
