Ho Chi Minh City, with vibrant street food scene and diverse nightlife entertainment options, was the top choice for a one-night stay in Vietnam, according to digital travel platform Agoda.
The central city of Da Nang came in second, followed by Hanoi, Vung Tau and Da Lat, based on Agoda’s booking data in the first five months of 2025.
“A vibrant metropolis that never sleeps, HCMC is perfect for a one-night recharge. From rooftop cocktails to street food feasts and buzzing nightlife, the city delivers nonstop energy in every corner,” Agoda wrote.
Ho Chi Minh City is well-suited for short trips, offering a vibrant mix of cultural experiences, historical sites, and delicious food, all easily accessible within a day.
Staying in Districts 1 or 3 provides convenient access to top tourist attractions.
Just a few hours from Ho Chi Minh City, Vung Tau remains a popular coastal retreat. Visitors can take a sunset stroll along the beach, enjoy fresh seafood, and soak up the laid-back vibe of this seaside town.
With golden beaches, iconic bridges, and vibrant cafés, Da Nang strikes the perfect balance between relaxation and city charm, ideal for unwinding, even if only for 24 hours.
In Hanoi, Agoda recommends exploring the lantern-lit alleys of the Old Quarter, savoring a steaming bowl of pho, or catching a live show at the Opera House, all doable in a single day.
Da Lat in the Central Highlands, known for its cool year-round climate and pine-covered hills, is a destination for those who favor slow travel and nature-filled escapes.
