Bai Chay, Ha Long CityRadisson Blu Hotel, Ha Long Bay opened in May 2025 in the Cai Dam area of Bai Chay, the hotel district on the mainland side of the bay. It is a large, international-standard hotel with bay and lake views, an indoor pool and an outdoor pool, and a full-service spa.
For a cruise, it means a comfortable, predictable night close to the boats: arrive from Hanoi, swim and eat well, then make the short drive to the harbour in the morning. The lowest rate we found includes breakfast, so an early start still begins with a proper meal.
Pool, spa and beach
An indoor pool and an outdoor pool, plus a full-service spa.
Getting around
