Major hotels in the Bai Chay Tourist Area Center are also in a similar situation. According to the announcement of some hotels, the rate of guests booking and staying continuously for many days on the occasion of September 30th is currently at 80-90%.
According to a representative of a travel company, on the occasion of the recent Hung Kings' Commemoration, large hotels in Bai Chay, such as Muong Thanh Hotel System, Vinpearl Ha Long, Wyndham... do not have an empty room, so on the occasion of September 30-15, if they do not book rooms early, there will likely be no more; or they have to stay in small hotels.
Many large hotels in Ha Long currently have only a few rooms left, which are expected to be sold out in the next few days. On this holiday, Ha Long has many attractive events, including Ha Long Carnival, so it will attract a large number of tourists" - this person said.
