City Hotels

Browse by Destination Instead
Some come for the cities, some for the coast, some to sleep in a building that has stood for a century. Others want a small design-led property, a family-friendly resort or a quiet retreat far from the crowds. Our collections group the hotels of Indochina by the kind of stay they offer, so you can start from the style of journey you have in mind.
There are fifteen main collections. Each has its own set of sub-collections, which go deeper into the style. Every hotel we feature sits inside at least one collection, and often in more than one, so you can browse from several directions and still land on the same place. If you are planning a private journey, we can also help you choose the right mix for the trip.
Collections are not rankings. They are ways of choosing. The best collection for a traveller depends on the journey they are planning, not on how grand a hotel happens to be.
Our collections cover Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos, with each collection featuring the destinations where suitable properties are available. Each has its own sub-collections for travellers who want to go deeper into a particular style.
Well-located hotels in the main cities of Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos, chosen for where they sit and how easily they let you step out into the city.
View City Hotels →Coastal retreats across Vietnam and Cambodia. Long beaches, quiet bays, private islands and boutique seaside properties, all organised by the kind of coast they sit on.
View Beach Resorts →Small, design-led properties with real character. Restored townhouses, heritage houses and considered new builds, chosen for the way they feel rather than for size.
View Boutique Hotels →Historic properties across Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos. From grand colonial landmarks and restored merchant houses to royal residences and small period conversions.
View Heritage Hotels →Places shaped by the design language of the French Indochina period. Shutters, ceiling fans, tiled floors and interiors in green, cream and brass, in restored originals and new builds alike.
View Indochine Hotels →Buildings genuinely from the French Indochina period. Grand hotels, art deco residences, government houses and riverfront landmarks where the architecture of the era is still intact.
View Colonial-Era Hotels →Restored trading houses, old shophouses and former family compounds across Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos. Buildings that were a business before they were a hotel.
View Merchant Houses →Former palaces, princely houses, governor’s residences and official compounds restored as historic hotels, where the building’s ceremonial past is part of the stay.

View Collection →If you are not sure which collection suits you, these are the three most common starting points for travellers planning an Indochina journey.
Start with City Hotels, then look at Heritage Hotels for the historic quarters of Hanoi, Hoi An and Luang Prabang. Boutique Hotels work well when you want something smaller and more personal in the same cities.
Start with Beach and Island Resorts, then narrow down by the kind of coast. Long Beach Resorts suit families and long stays. Bay and Cove Retreats and Private Islands suit couples and travellers who want quiet.
Start with Heritage Hotels, then explore Colonial-Era Hotels, Merchant Houses and Royal Residences. Each covers a different layer of the region’s architecture, and they combine well in a single itinerary.
