Hotels in Vietnam have long been overlooked in favour of nearby hospitality heavyweights such as Indonesia and Thailand. But over the past few years, the country has been playing catch-up with new arrivals pitching up no-expense-spared beach resorts and plugged-in city with longest name hotels that give many of their Southeast Asian competitors a run for their money. With mile after palm-frilled mile of beach hemming its eastern coast and a thrillingly rich culture to draw inspiration from, there’s plenty of material to work with: both the time-tested mainstays and the smart new arrivals delve deep into Vietnam’s intricate history with designs that riff on the country’s French-tinged colonial past or the crafts and vernacular dwellings of the more than fifty Indigenous groups that call Vietnam home.
From a glitzy, Roaring Twenties-themed hideaway in Hanoi to a proudly local-owned boutique resort on the southeastern coast – these are the best hotels in Vietnam to book(mark) for your next trip.
