In Q3/2023, Vietnam’s domestic tourist arrivals reached 29.5 million visitors,
down 19.1% QoQ, up 13.4% YoY. Besides, the number of international visitors to
Vietnam reached 3.33 million, up 15.8% QoQ, up 162% YoY. In the first 9 months
of 2023, Vietnam’s domestic and international tourist arrivals are estimated to
reach 93.5 million (+7.71% YoY) and 8.9 million (+374.4% YoY). Therefore, travel
revenue is estimated to reach 26.5 trillion VND, up 47.7% YoY in the first 9
months of 2023. The observed development can be attributed to an increase
in tourism demand following a prolonged period of impact from the Covid-19
pandemic. Furthermore, local authorities have been actively implementing
various initiatives throughout the year to promote the demand for tourism.

According to TMS Consultancy, the trajectory for hotel rental rates is expected
to maintain an upward trajectory, with anticipated increases of about 1% to 3%
in Q4/2023, primarily in provinces such as Da Nang, Nha Trang, Binh Thuan, Phu
Quoc, and Vung Tau. This projection coincides with an expansion in the supply
of hotel rooms in various provinces. In Ho Chi Minh City, for instance, more than
2,500 rooms from renowned brands like Fusion, Hilton, and InterContinental are
slated to be added by the end of 2023. Looking ahead, Hanoi is poised to welcome
approximately 2,400 new rooms to the market by 2025, while Da Nang is gearing up
for a substantial influx of over 7,500 new hotel rooms, underscoring the continuous
growth and development of Vietnam’s hospitality sector.
