Community
Rooted in Hoi An
We believe a hotel should give more than it takes. From the food on your plate to the water in the river, every decision at Nghe Prana is shaped by our commitment to the land, the community, and the future of this ancient town.
Four Pillars of Care
Zero Single-Use Plastic
Every guest amenity — from water bottles to toiletry containers — is reusable, compostable, or recyclable. We eliminated single-use plastic across the entire property.
Local Farm Partnerships
Our kitchen sources directly from over twelve family farms within 30km. This means fresher food, lower emissions, and real income for Hoi An's farming communities.
River Conservation
We fund monthly river cleanups along the Thu Bon, monitor water quality with local scientists, and have removed over 2 tonnes of waste since our programme began.
Full-Moon Ceremonies
Each full moon, guests and staff gather at the riverbank for a traditional animal release ceremony — freeing fish and birds as a Buddhist act of compassion and renewal.

The Full-Moon Ceremony
On the night of each full moon, we gather at the banks of the Thu Bon River for a ceremony rooted in centuries of Buddhist practice. Fish, birds, and other small creatures are released back into the wild — a symbolic act of compassion that reminds us of our connection to every living being.
Lanterns are floated on the river, prayers are shared, and for a few quiet moments, guests and staff stand together in the silver light — not as hosts and visitors, but as stewards of this place.
“The river gives, and so we give back.”
Join Our Mission
Every stay at Nghe Prana contributes to river conservation, local employment, and sustainable agriculture. But you can go further — join a river cleanup, plant a tree, or simply carry the mindfulness you find here back into your daily life.
