Nearby Local Attractions

Three unmissable attractions sit within easy reach of the hotel:

• Ha Long Bay UNESCO Site: Just a 10-minute drive from the hotel, this world-famous bay is home to thousands of jagged limestone karsts rising from emerald-green waters. Book a day or overnight cruise from the nearby Bai Chay Pier to explore hidden caves, swim in secluded lagoons, and visit floating fishing villages.
• Sun World Ha Long Park: A five-minute walk from the hotel, this entertainment complex combines thrill rides, a sandy public beach, and a coastal gondola that offers sweeping views of the bay. It’s perfect for families traveling with kids, or anyone looking for a fun evening of entertainment after a day of exploring.
• Ti Top Island: Accessible via a 45-minute boat ride from Bai Chay Pier, this small crescent-shaped island features a soft sandy beach and a short hiking trail that leads to a panoramic viewpoint overlooking the surrounding karsts. It’s one of the most popular stops on any Ha Long Bay cruise, ideal for swimming, photo ops, and picnics.

Travel Tips

Book your stay in advance during peak season (April to October) to secure a balcony room with bay views, as these sell out quickly. The airport shuttle is a worthwhile splurge, as it avoids the hassle of haggling for taxis from Cat Bi International Airport, which is around a 45-minute drive away. Since the hotel does not offer internet, purchase a local Vietnamese SIM card at the airport for low-cost mobile data during your trip. If you plan to cruise the bay, most tour operators offer free pick up from the hotel, so confirm your pick up time with the front desk the night before your tour.
