InterContinental Hotels & Resorts, a brand under IHG Hotels & Resorts, has unveiled its first international luxury resort in Ha Long Bay, marking a major milestone in its Southeast Asia expansion.
Located in the Ha Long Marina Urban Area in Quang Ninh province, the resort combines contemporary sophistication with cultural heritage, offering travelers immersive experiences set against the bay’s famed limestone formations and vibrant blue waters.
The property includes around 275 rooms, suites, and villas, each offering sweeping views of the bay’s striking islands. Guests can enjoy six unique dining options—from a waterfront restaurant to a rooftop bar and an elegant lounge. Additional amenities include a signature spa, multiple outdoor pools, a children’s activity center, and versatile event venues suited for both corporate functions and social celebrations.
Designed by WATG, the resort’s architecture draws inspiration from the natural beauty of Ha Long Bay, while also incorporating patterns and elements that reflect traditional Vietnamese stories and the harmony of sea and land. Meanwhile, the interiors crafted by P49Deesign highlight local culture through bamboo basket-boat influences, shimmering textures, and colors inspired by the surrounding waters.
IHG noted that the new resort underscores its focus on sustainable luxury and elevated guest experiences rooted in local connection. The opening strengthens IHG’s plans to expand its luxury and lifestyle offerings in strategic global markets while supporting Quang Ninh’s ambition to grow its premium tourism sector.
Poised to attract both leisure travellers seeking tranquillity and business guests needing upscale event spaces, InterContinental Hotels & Resorts aims to become a standout symbol of coastal luxury in Vietnam.
