Hoi An at night, Vietnam
🌱 Applications open · Founding partner pilot

Independent hotels.
Stronger together.

A growing community for independent, quality small and mid-sized hotels in Vietnam. We believe great hospitality does not depend on how big you are.

We grow when our partners grow.

Founding cohort target

10 hotels

Starting in Da Nang & Hoi An

Membership application

Free

No upfront joining fee in the pilot

Shared opportunity

Two-way

Room enquiries + guest experiences

Not just another booking listing

A partnership that creates value in both directions.

Reach more international guests

Work with a local travel platform that introduces independent stays alongside Vietnam itineraries, transfers and experiences.

A genuine two-way partnership

GoVietStay can refer hotel enquiries; your team can introduce guests to GoVietStay tours and local services through the QR Partner programme.

Grow your identity

Approved properties can be considered for a dedicated profile, travel content and visibility in relevant GoVietStay destination guides.

Start small. Grow together.

No entry fee for the founding pilot. Partnership commissions and operating terms are agreed transparently before activation.

One guest. More opportunities. Shared success.

GoVietStay → Hotel: We can introduce travellers interested in accommodation. Any hotel-booking commission is negotiated and documented with each property before launch.

Hotel → GoVietStay: Approved hotels can join QR Partner to introduce guests to eligible local tours and services. The current tour-referral offer is 12%, subject to QR Partner programme conditions.

This is a partner application programme, not a claim that partner hotels are already enrolled. Membership, rates, referral credit and payments begin only after a written agreement.

Quality before quantity

Who belongs in our alliance?
