Novotel set to open 4 star hotel on Nha Trang beach

Novotel Nha Trang is due to open on 15 November 2008 and will welcome guests for the forthcoming Christmas, New Year and the Tet Festival. Nha Trang is a coastal city on Vietnam’s South Central coast and is one of the country’s most important tourism hubs.

Nha Trang Bay belongs to the Most Beautiful Bays of the World Club and is famous for its beautiful beaches with fine sand, turquoise waters with mild temperatures all year round with excellent scuba diving and snorkeling. The city also played host to the Miss Universe 2008 Pageant in July 2008.

Besides its pristine beach, Nha Trang has many appealing attractions which include the historic Long Son Pagoda, Po Nagar Cham Towers, City Square, and the Nha Trang Oceanography Institute, home to rare patterns of coral and sea life.
