Haiphong hotels are primarily functional city hotels serving business visitors and transiting travellers. There are no luxury resort properties — the city has a limited tourism economy. The best options offer clean rooms, reliable air-con, and good city centre locations.

Mid-range (₫500,000–1,500,000 / $20–60)

Mercure Haiphong: The best international-standard hotel in the city. Centrally located near the Opera House. Pool, restaurant, reliable wifi. ₫900,000–2,000,000 ($36–80). Higher price but consistent quality for business travellers.

Monaco Hotel Haiphong: A step down from the Mercure but good value for the category. Clean rooms, central location, breakfast available. ₫500,000–900,000 ($20–36).

Vision Hotel: Popular mid-range option with good reviews from transit travellers. City centre, breakfast included. ₫600,000–1,200,000 ($24–48).

Harbour View Hotel: On the waterfront near the port area. Sea views from upper floors. Slightly dated facilities but the location is good. ₫700,000–1,400,000 ($28–56).

Budget (₫200,000–500,000 / $8–20)

Nam Cuong Hotel: Budget option near the central market with clean basic rooms. Value for money. ₫300,000–550,000 ($12–22).

Guesthouses on Minh Khai Street: Several unnamed and locally-run guesthouses cluster on this street. Basic private rooms with air-con: ₫200,000–400,000 ($8–16). No online booking — walk-in.

Near Ben Binh Ferry Terminal

For travellers prioritising ferry access over city centre location:

Thang Long Hotel: 5-minute walk from Ben Binh pier. Basic but functional. ₫300,000–500,000 ($12–20).

Budget ferry-area guesthouses: Several small guesthouses operate within the streets immediately around the pier. Standards vary. Check rooms before paying.

Notes for transit travellers

Haiphong hotels can typically store luggage for early departures. If taking a morning ferry to Cat Ba, confirm the hotel can provide early breakfast or allow you to leave before standard breakfast time.

Taxi and xe om access from city centre hotels to Ben Binh ferry is ₫30,000–60,000 ($1.20–2.40) — always confirm the price before getting in.
