From grand city icons to intimate urban escapes, Vietnam’s finest hotels are redefining what it means to travel beautifully. The Best Luxury Hotel nominees celebrate places where thoughtful service, distinctive character and a genuine sense of welcome come together, turning a night away into something we carry home with us. 

There are few better ways to discover Vietnam than from the water. Framed by limestone cliffs, quiet bays and changing skies, the Best Cruise Ship of the Year nominees celebrate journeys where beautiful surroundings, thoughtful hospitality, good food and the simple pleasure of slowing down come together.

From quiet bays and tropical islands to long stretches of coastline shaped by sun, wind and sea, Vietnam’s beach resorts are turning the simple idea of an escape into something far more memorable. The Best Beach Resort of the Year nominees celebrate places where landscape, hospitality and a slower rhythm of living come naturally together.

The best urban hotels understand the pace of modern travel, while exceptional MICE destinations know how to turn gathering into experience. Together, this year’s nominees reflect a hospitality landscape shaped by location, flexibility, thoughtful service and spaces designed equally well for individual stays, business journeys and moments of collective connection.
