According to the VNAT, tourist accommodation establishments nationwide have developed strongly in terms of quantity and quality, enabling the tourism industry to compete with other countries in the region and the world. The investment inflow into this sector has concentrated on sea and mountain resorts.

Besides international corporations and brands such as Hyatt, Intercontinental, Accor, Sheraton, Hilton, and IHG, domestic groups such as Vinpearl, Saigontourist, Flamingo have increased their presence in the tourism industry.

Meanwhile, community-based tourism has been promoted in remote areas, contributing to creating jobs, sharing benefits to local communities, and reducing poverty.

The 2017 Tourism Law has facilitated tourism accommodation business and investment and increased the responsibility of local management agencies and professional social organisations for tourism activities./. VNA
