Travel Guide: Queen Hotel (Khách sạn QUEEN), Ninh Thuận, Vietnam

Introduction

Tucked along Vietnam’s sun-drenched south-central coast, Ninh Thuận is a hidden gem of empty white-sand beaches, dramatic volcanic landscapes, and vibrant Cham cultural heritage—far from the crowds of Nha Trang and Da Lat. For travelers seeking a comfortable, pet-friendly base to explore this underrated region, Queen Hotel delivers warm Vietnamese hospitality, thoughtful amenities, and a convenient location just off the main North-South highway. Whether you’re a solo hiker, a family on a road trip, or a couple chasing coastal sunsets, this welcoming mid-range hotel caters to every type of traveler.

Hotel Overview

Queen Hotel’s location along QL1A in Phước Minh, Thuận Nam District, puts you within easy reach of Ninh Thuận’s top sights while remaining quiet enough for a restful stay. The property boasts a range of thoughtful facilities designed for comfort and convenience: step outside your room to a lush garden, sunlit terrace, and dedicated picnic area perfect for morning coffee or evening sundowners with coastal views. Unlike many Vietnamese hotels, Queen Hotel allows pets to stay for no extra fee, making it a great pick for travelers bringing furry companions along on their adventure.

All guests enjoy free property-wide WiFi, and free private parking is available with advance booking, including EV charging stations, accessible parking, and valet service. The 24-hour front desk offers everything from luggage storage and fast check-in to currency exchange and an on-site ATM, while daily housekeeping keeps rooms fresh. Additional perks include soundproofed, non-smoking, and family rooms, paid laundry and dry cleaning services, 24/7 security, and paid airport and local shuttle services to help you get around the region. Note that staff speak Vietnamese, so having a translation app handy is helpful for international visitors.

Local Attractions

Three unmissable attractions sit within a 45-minute drive of the hotel:

• Vịnh Vĩnh Hy (Vĩnh Hy Bay): Just 30 minutes north, this sheltered emerald bay is framed by jagged volcanic mountains and empty golden beaches. Take a boat tour to explore hidden coves, snorkel among colorful coral reefs, and dine on fresh grilled seafood at a floating fishing village.
• Po Klong Garai Cham Temple: A 40-minute drive from the hotel, this 13th-century Hindu temple complex built by the Cham Empire sits atop a low hill, featuring intricately carved brick towers that overlook sweeping valley views. Visit at sunrise to beat the heat and catch golden light on the ancient sandstone walls.
• Ninh Chữ Beach: Just 20 minutes from Queen Hotel, this quiet, undeveloped stretch of coast is perfect for long walks, swimming in calm warm waters, and watching local fishermen haul in their daily catch. You’ll rarely share the sand with more than a handful of other visitors here.

Travel Tips

If you’re driving the coastal North-South route, book your parking spot in advance to guarantee a space, especially during peak Vietnamese holiday seasons (Tet in late January or February, and summer vacation in July and August). Pack sturdy hiking shoes if you plan to tackle the mountain trails around Vĩnh Hy Bay, and bring plenty of sunscreen—Ninh Thuận is one of Vietnam’s sunniest regions, with little shade on open trails and beaches. Since the hotel is pet-friendly, remember to keep your dog on a leash when exploring the hotel’s garden and local public areas. For day trips, book the hotel’s rental car or shuttle service in advance for a fair, transparent rate.
