Over one month, posting room hotel prices on some websites has received some positive feedbacks from tourists.
 
A tourist named Mai Phuong Lien from Hai Phong said that to prepare for her family’s trip to Nha Trang, she knew room prices from website of Khanh Hoa Tourism Information Promotion Center (nhatrang-travel.com) and chose to book a 2-star hotel in Hung Vuong Street.
 
Huynh Thanh Dung, a tourist from Ho Chi Minh City, shared that his family booked good hotels with reasonable prices in spite of the peak time of tourism in Nha Trang. “Room prices posted on tourism websites are very useful for tourists when choosing hotels and prevent exorbitant prices”, he said.

According to director of the provincial Tourism Information Promotion Center, previously, hotline of the center received many comments on room prices but it has decreased deeply now. The center also has received a lot of good feedbacks from tourists. “Now we have just focused on room prices of under-2-star hotels whose rooms are often sold higher than their registered prices”, he said.
 
To update room prices frequently, the center’s staff takes the list of hotels’ room prices from the provincial Department of Finance every Thursday. Up to now, 48 hotels have posted their room prices and the figure surely will rise more.
 
According to Nguyen Be, director of the provincial Department of Finance, after checking and receive room price registration of hotels, the department will supply for the provincial Tourism Information Promotion. “This is a necessary act to prevent hotels from put up room prices. Besides, tourists can compare room prices of hotels to choose suitable ones for them”, Be said.
 
The provincial Tourism Information Promotion Center also is linking with website of Nha Trang – Khanh Hoa Tourism Association and portal of the provincial Department of Finance to popularize the information more.
 
“We have propagandized about this to members of the association. Most of the member businesses support it and expect more hotels to be posted prices and the tourism websites to link with more websites.” Nguyen Van Thanh, Permanent Vice-chairman of Nha Trang – Khanh Hoa Tourism Information Promotion Center.
