According to Vu Ngoc Lam, Country Director of Agoda Vietnam, the holiday season is a time of joy, warmth with family and friends, and an opportunity to explore new destinations. However, it is also a period when travel costs typically rise, making budget management a top priority for many travelers.
“We compared hotel prices across 10 key cities in nine countries. In reality, travelers can find even more attractive options, not just in the destinations listed but also in many others on our booking platform,” Lam said.
Topping the rankings is Hat Yai, in southern Thailand, which emerged as the most affordable choice for December travelers, with an average room rate of VND 1.16 million per night.

Following Hat Yai are Surakarta (Indonesia) and Varanasi (India), with average hotel prices of VND 1.19 million and VND 1.24 million per night, respectively.
Nagoya, Japan’s third-largest city, also made it onto the list, with an average accommodation cost of VND 2.7 million.
Agoda notes that visitors to Nagoya can marvel at the grandeur of Nagoya Castle, explore the vibrant Sakae district, and savor the city’s famous cuisine, including Hitsumabushi (grilled eel) and Miso Katsu (pork cutlet with miso sauce).
