Government-Led Tourism Policy Reforms and Visa Liberalization Driving International Arrivals
The Vietnamese government has implemented comprehensive tourism development strategies that are significantly reshaping the accommodation landscape. Through decisive policy interventions, authorities are actively working to position Vietnam as a premier Southeast Asian destination by removing barriers to entry and enhancing tourism infrastructure. These reforms encompass visa policy liberalization that extends stay durations and simplifies entry procedures for multiple nationalities, alongside substantial public investment in transportation networks, airport expansions, and destination development. A long-term dedication to sustainable tourist growth is demonstrated by the strategic focus on establishing National tourist Zones with special infrastructure investment. In June 2024, Decision No. 509 gave infrastructure planning and capital investment for tourism amenities top priority when it came to investing in possible locations for development into National Tourism Zones. Furthermore, the government introduced visa exemption policies in early 2025 allowing citizens from Poland, the Czech Republic, and Switzerland to stay for 45 days without visas through December 2025 as part of the Tourism Development Stimulus Program. These coordinated policy measures have created a favorable operating environment for accommodation providers while simultaneously driving remarkable growth in international arrivals. Vietnam welcomed about 17.6 million foreign visitors in 2024, up 38.9 percent from 2023. The government has set a lofty goal of drawing 22–23 million foreign visitors by 2025. This policy-driven expansion of the visitor base directly translates into increased demand for diverse accommodation options ranging from economy to luxury segments, thereby propelling the Vietnam travel accommodation market growth.
Accelerated International Hotel Brand Expansion and Portfolio Diversification
The Vietnam accommodation sector is experiencing an unprecedented wave of international hotel brand expansion as global hospitality operators recognize the market's exceptional growth potential. Major international chains are strategically positioning themselves across multiple segments and geographic regions throughout the country, from established urban centers to emerging coastal and highland destinations. This expansion is characterized by sophisticated multi-brand strategies that cater to diverse traveler segments, including luxury resorts, midscale business hotels, and value-focused properties. International operators are entering previously untapped markets in provinces like Quang Binh and establishing flagship properties in key tourist destinations. In October 2025, Hilton and Sun Group announced an expanded partnership to develop Vietnam's first Conrad and LXR Hotels & Resorts properties across Quang Ninh, Da Nang, and Phu Quoc, including a nearly 2,000-room multi-brand cluster set to support the 2027 Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit. As part of its plans to more than double its Vietnam footprint to over 40 properties, IHG properties & Resorts expanded with two new hotels in Quang Binh province in August 2024: a 232-room Crowne Plaza Quang Binh City Centre and a 68-villa voco Quang Binh Resort. These strategic investments by international brands are elevating service standards, introducing global best practices, and creating increased competitive pressure that benefits consumers through improved quality and expanded choice across all accommodation categories.
Digital Transformation and Dominance of Online Travel Agency Platforms
Vietnam's accommodation market has undergone a fundamental digital transformation driven by exceptional internet penetration, widespread smartphone adoption, and sophisticated e-payment infrastructure. Online travel agencies have emerged as the dominant booking channel, fundamentally altering how Vietnamese and international travelers research, compare, and reserve accommodations. The digital booking ecosystem is characterized by fierce competition among international platforms that offer localized services, competitive pricing, and seamless user experiences integrated with popular digital payment methods. This shift toward digital channels has democratized access to accommodation information, enabled transparent price comparisons, and empowered travelers with greater choice and convenience. The proliferation of mobile booking applications has further accelerated this trend, with travelers increasingly making last-minute reservations through smartphone devices. In 2024, international OTA platforms including Booking.com, Traveloka, and Agoda captured approximately 80 percent of Vietnam's online travel market share, demonstrating the overwhelming dominance of digital booking channels. The market's digital infrastructure is supported by robust e-wallet adoption, with active users climbing 40 percent year-on-year to reach 50 million, while VietQR facilitated 1.29 billion transfers in 2023 with triple-digit growth continuing into 2024. Mobile transactions accounted for 72.22 percent of 2024 bookings, reflecting Vietnam's 87 percent smartphone penetration rate. For accommodation providers, this digital transformation necessitates sophisticated online presence management, dynamic pricing strategies, and strategic partnerships with multiple OTA platforms to maximize visibility and occupancy rates in an increasingly competitive digital marketplace.
