Quick answer
Stay at The Anam or Mia for a beach resort, Sheraton or Adamas in the centre, and Azura Gold or Sun Kiss on Tran Phu on a budget.
In short
- The Anam and Mia are the luxury beach resorts south of town; Amiana is the resort in the north.
- Sheraton, Liberty Central and Adamas are the high-rise picks in the centre, a block or a road from the sand.
- Hon Chong Retreat has the top guest score on this list, 9.6 out of 10, and three pools.
- Azura Gold, Sun Kiss and Khang’s House are the budget picks; Sun Kiss starts at VND 900,000.
The 12 best Nha Trang hotels run from The Anam Cam Ranh, scored 9.5 out of 10 by guests, to Sun Kiss Hotel, whose rooms start at VND 900,000 a night on Tran Phu. Nha Trang hotels fall into two groups: city towers along the main beach, where you can walk to bars and the night market, and beach resorts outside town, where you trade that for space and quiet.

Where to stay in Nha Trang: the four areas
Where to stay in Nha Trang depends on whether you want the city or a resort. Vietnam’s national tourism site calls Nha Trang a playground for sunseekers and puts Cam Ranh International Airport about 30 km south of the city.
Tran Phu beachfront
Tran Phu is the main seafront avenue, with the city beach on the other side of the road. Sheraton and Sun Kiss are here, and Sun Kiss is 0.7 km from the night market. You cross the road to reach the sand.
Central Nha Trang and Biet Thu
Central Nha Trang, around Biet Thu street, is the restaurant and bar grid a block back from the beach; Liberty Central calls it the foreigners’ town. Liberty Central, Amber, Adamas and Azura Gold are here, and Khang’s House is further north in Van Thanh.
North Nha Trang and Hon Chong
North Nha Trang, across the Cai River, is quieter. Navada and Hon Chong Retreat are near Hon Chong Beach, and Amiana is on Pham Van Dong, a 10-minute drive from the centre. The mud baths and hot springs are in the hills north of the city.
Bai Dai and Cam Ranh
Bai Dai, or Long Beach, and the Cam Ranh peninsula are south of the city and close to the airport. The Anam is on Long Beach, and Mia sits in a private bay at Bai Dong. Both are a long drive from the city.
Luxury hotels in Nha Trang
Luxury hotels in Nha Trang are one city hotel on Tran Phu and three beach resorts outside town.
Sheraton Nha Trang Hotel & Spa
Sheraton Nha Trang Hotel & Spa stands at 26-28 Tran Phu, across the road from the main beach. Guests rate it 9.1 out of 10 from 470 guest reviews on Booking.com, read on 26 October 2026.
Its Booking.com listing shows a sixth-floor infinity-edge pool, the Shine Spa, a gym, six places to eat and drink, a cooking school and an Adventure Club for diving and snorkelling trips. Cam Ranh airport is a 45-minute drive away. It has no beach of its own.
Amiana Resort Nha Trang
Amiana Resort Nha Trang has 248 rooms and villas on the bay along Pham Van Dong, a 10-minute drive north of the centre. Guests rate it 9.2 out of 10 from 271 guest reviews on Booking.com.
Its official site lists a 2,500 m² natural seawater pool, two infinity pools of 600 and 700 m², a private lagoon beach for guests only, a spa with mud baths and a kids’ club. It suits families, but you will need a taxi into town.
The Anam Cam Ranh
The Anam Cam Ranh is on Long Beach on the northern Cam Ranh peninsula, and calls itself the first five-star colonial beach resort in Cam Ranh. Guests rate it 9.5 out of 10 from 324 guest reviews on Booking.com.
It has 213 villas, rooms and suites in Indochine style, many villas with a private pool, a lagoon pool, and a spa with ten treatment rooms, steam, sauna and outdoor jacuzzis. Direct bookings include a free round-trip Cam Ranh airport transfer. The city is far to the north.
Mia Resort Nha Trang
Mia Resort Nha Trang is built into a hillside above a private bay at Bai Dong, between Nha Trang and Cam Ranh. Guests rate it 9.4 out of 10 from 304 guest reviews on Booking.com.
Rooms range from garden-view one-bedroom units to beachfront and cliff villas with grass-covered roofs. There is the Ô Spa, three restaurants and bars, a gym, tennis and yoga, and a house reef for snorkelling off the beach. It is a long drive to the city.
Mid-range hotels in Nha Trang
Mid-range hotels in Nha Trang are mostly towers in the centre with a pool on a high floor; Navada is the quieter choice in the north.
Liberty Central Nha Trang
Liberty Central Nha Trang is a 20-floor hotel at 9 Biet Thu, a few steps from the public beach on Tran Phu. Guests rate it 8.7 out of 10 from 323 guest reviews on Booking.com.
Its official site describes a 4-star beach city hotel with 227 rooms that hosted APEC in 2017, plus the Central Spa and Central Restaurant. The executive lounge is temporarily closed. It is in the busy foreigners’ town, so it is not for a quiet stay.
Adamas Boutique Hotel Nha Trang
Adamas Boutique Hotel Nha Trang stands at 20A Tran Quang Khai, one block back from Tran Phu. Guests rate it 9.3 out of 10 from 805 guest reviews on Booking.com.
Its infinity pool is on the 21st floor with a sea view, and there is a dry and wet sauna, a gym, the Lux restaurant and the May Lounge. The two-bedroom President Suite on the 20th floor has a kitchen, which suits families. It is not on the beach.
Navada Beach Hotel
Navada Beach Hotel is opposite Hon Chong Beach at 09-10 Pham Van Dong, about 100 m from the Hon Chong promontory. Guests rate it 8.8 out of 10 from 537 guest reviews on Booking.com.
It has 153 rooms, many with a direct sea view, a pool, a gym and spa, a restaurant and a sky bar. It suits travellers who want sea views without the central crowds, but the Tran Phu bars and the night market are a ride away.
Amber Hotel managed by HT
Amber Hotel managed by HT is at 38 Biet Thu, a five-minute walk from Nha Trang Beach. Guests rate it 8.8 out of 10 from 267 guest reviews on Booking.com.
We found no official website, so these facts come from its Booking.com listing: a rooftop pool, an Asian restaurant, a lounge with an outdoor fireplace and family rooms. Biet Thu is a restaurant street, not a quiet one.
Budget hotels in Nha Trang
Budget hotels in Nha Trang still often come with a pool; three of these four have one, and all score 8.6 or more.
Azura Gold Hotel & Apartment
Azura Gold Hotel & Apartment is at 64/2 Tran Phu in Loc Tho, near the beach. Guests rate it 9.2 out of 10 from 3,862 guest reviews on Booking.com, the largest number of reviews on this list.
It has a swimming pool, the An Vy Restaurant, rooms with balconies, some with a sea view, family sea-view rooms and a tour desk. The official site lists no spa or gym.
Sun Kiss Hotel
Sun Kiss Hotel is on Tran Phu in Loc Tho, with the beach in front, 0.5 km from the Tram Huong Tower square. Guests rate it 8.6 out of 10 from 312 guest reviews on Booking.com.
Its official site showed Deluxe City View rooms from VND 900,000 a night and Senior Deluxe Sea View rooms from VND 1,000,000 on 26 October 2026. There are 95 rooms and suites, a rooftop infinity pool over the bay, a sauna, a fitness room and a breakfast buffet. There is no spa.
Hon Chong Retreat Hotel Nha Trang
Hon Chong Retreat Hotel Nha Trang is at Bai Duong 6B in the north, a seven-minute walk from Hon Chong Beach. It has the highest guest score on this list: 9.6 out of 10 from 633 guest reviews on Booking.com.
We found no official website, so these facts come from its Booking.com listing: an outdoor pool, a kids’ pool and a rooftop pool, family rooms with sea or mountain views, a restaurant and bar, and an airport shuttle. The central bars are a ride away.
Khang’s House
Khang’s House is a simple hotel at 24 Ly Thanh Ton in Van Thanh, a local neighbourhood 15 minutes’ walk from the beach. Guests rate it 8.9 out of 10 from 375 guest reviews on Booking.com.
Its Booking.com listing shows air-conditioned rooms with a work desk, a lift, a 24-hour front desk, room service, free parking and daily housekeeping. There is no pool, so beach-first travellers should look elsewhere.
How we chose these Nha Trang hotels
How we chose these Nha Trang hotels matters, because we have not stayed at them. The 12 hotels were chosen from public, checkable data: a precise location, a guest score on Booking.com and facilities read on the official website where one exists, all checked on 26 October 2026.
Where a hotel has no official website, or its website blocks automated checks, the facilities come from its Booking.com listing. Vietnam does have an official hotel star rating, awarded under its Law on Tourism by the national and provincial tourism authorities, but we could not check each hotel’s grade in an open register, so this list shows no official star category; any star level mentioned is the hotel’s or Booking.com’s own description. No hotel pays to be listed; see the editorial policy and the affiliate disclosure.
Before you book a hotel in Nha Trang
- Check whether your nationality needs a visa, and apply only through the official Vietnam e-visa site.
- Cam Ranh International Airport is about 30 km south of the city, with shuttles, taxis and ride-hailing; the train station is in the centre.
- Most city hotels face the beach across Tran Phu; only the resorts outside town have their own beach.
- Guest scores change; the figures here were read on 26 October 2026, so check the latest before booking.
When a Nha Trang hotel is the wrong choice
A Nha Trang hotel is the wrong choice if you want quiet nights and a beach on your doorstep in the same place. The city is busy, and the quiet resorts are a drive away, so pick one or the other.

Common questions
What is the best area to stay in Nha Trang?
The best area to stay in Nha Trang for a first visit is the centre, on Tran Phu or around Biet Thu, where you can walk to the beach, bars and night market. Choose Hon Chong in the north for a quieter base, or Cam Ranh in the south for a resort near the airport.
Which Nha Trang hotels are on the beach?
Of the 12 Nha Trang hotels here, the resorts have their own beach: Amiana’s private lagoon, The Anam on Long Beach and Mia in a private bay. Sheraton and Sun Kiss face the city beach across Tran Phu, and Booking.com lists Hon Chong Retreat as beachfront.
Which Nha Trang hotel is best for families?
Amiana Resort Nha Trang is the best Nha Trang hotel for families on this list, with a kids’ club, a seawater pool, two infinity pools and a private lagoon beach. In town, Azura Gold has family sea-view rooms and a pool, and Hon Chong Retreat has a kids’ pool.
How far is Nha Trang from the airport?
Vietnam’s national tourism site puts Cam Ranh International Airport about 30 km south of the city, with shuttles, taxis and ride-hailing. Sheraton gives a 45-minute drive, and Liberty Central 35 minutes. The Anam is much closer and offers free transfers on direct bookings.
