According to the Hanoi Department of Tourism, as of August 31, Hanoi had about 950 accommodation establishments temporarily shut down, with nearly 16,000 workers temporarily unemployed. The 3-5-star luxury hotel segment has faced a serious crisis due to a sharp decline in international arrivals.

“Our hotel closed twice and now it has reopened. Despite having reduced room rates, we still have very few guests. This time last year almost all rooms in the hotel were full," said a receptionist at a hotel on Hang Hanh Street.
