Emeralda Resort Ninh Binh

Occupying a desirable location on the edge of the Van Long Primeval Tropical Forest Nature Reserve, the Emeralda Resort Ninh Binh has been designed to evoke a traditional Vietnamese feel while providing all the comforts of a modern luxury hotel.

This opulent hotel features wonderfully authentic architecture and traditional furnishings, and its 172 guest rooms come in three varieties of sizes, superior, deluxe and duplex. The spacious rooms all offer great views, and some open up onto terraces where you can relax in a comfortable lounge chair while admiring the scenery.

When it comes to dining, you have a choice between two restaurants, the healthy Organics Restaurant with pool views or the Sen Restaurant which boats a traditional Vietnamese interior and dishes from three culinary regions of the country. There’s also a pool bar and wine bar with a collection of labels from both the old and new worlds.

When you’re not lounging by either the indoor or the outdoor pools, relax at the spa La Cochinchine which offers a wide range of therapies and pampering options or visit the on-site Vietnamese market.
