Grand Mercure Hanoi - Upscale hotels & resorts

Every year, the Reunification Day (April 30) and International Workers’ Day (May 1) are not just national holidays, but a golden opportunity to press pause, travel, and reconnect — whether with nature, culture, or simply good food and good vibes.

If you’re still wondering where to go this holiday, here’s a mix of getaways, hangout spots, and relaxing suggestions across Vietnam.

1/ Đà Nẵng – Hội An

Da Nang is always a safe bet for holidays: clean beaches, great food, and just a short trip to the lantern-lit magic of Hội An.

Tip: Book early! This is a peak season hotspot.

2/ Sapa

If you’re looking to escape the heat, head up north. Sapa in late April is cool, fresh, and often misty – the perfect combo for trekking, café chill, or soul-searching.

3/ Ninh Bình – Hạ Long

Only 2 hours from Hanoi, Ninh Bình is ideal for a quick nature fix.

4/ Sài Gòn

Not everyone’s heading out of town — and that’s great! During the holidays, Saigon is calmer, the streets are less crowded, and cafés, rooftop bars, and parks feel like a whole new vibe.

5/ Phú Quốc

Want a tropical escape? Phú Quốc is your dream come true.

6/ Đà Lạt

For those in love with cool weather, pine forests, and a bit of nostalgia, Đà Lạt is always the answer.

7/ If you’re not opting for anywhere, a Staycation would be an ideal choice

Sometimes, the best getaway is right where you are. Spend a day at Grand Mercure Hanoi and indulge in your favorite breakfast buffet, binge-watching your show.
