DINING

A WORLD OF FLAVOURS AT ROYAL HA LONG

DINING

One restaurant, three bars

Dining at Royal Ha Long unfolds across four spaces, each keeping its own rhythm: Phuc Vien Restaurant on the second floor for main meals, Piano Bar in the lobby for the evening, Pool Bar beside the swimming pool for the middle of the day, and La Terrasse in the grounds for the afternoon.

The kitchen works along two lines. One is live seafood from Ha Long Bay alongside Asian dishes such as Peking duck, Can Long tofu and char siu roast pork. The other is European cooking, led by steak served with mustard, pepper or cream sauce.

The drinks list runs from a pot of afternoon tea to a late cocktail, with imported wines alongside.

Phuc Vien Restaurant

Phuc Vien is the hotel’s main restaurant: a wide-ranging culinary journey built around the flavours of live Ha Long seafood.

Alongside it come Asian signatures such as rich Peking duck and silky Can Long tofu, together with European plates including prime steak served with mustard, pepper or cream sauce.

The room is warm and unhurried, with an open kitchen set beside the buffet line so dishes are finished in front of you.

Piano Bar

Set in the hotel lobby, Piano Bar serves cocktails and signature drinks.

Its 40 seats make an easy pause between the front door and the lift — a glass before dinner, or a long one afterwards with the piano playing.

Pool Bar

The bar sits beside the hotel’s outdoor swimming pool, opening onto an airy, cool place to unwind.

La Terrasse

Standing out in the European-style grounds, La Terrasse has everything an open-air bar should: green, easy surroundings and shade from the trees.

A pot of hot tea and afternoon treats at the weekend, taken in soft sunlight, is enough to lift the week off your shoulders.

THROUGH THE DAY

A day, meal by meal

  1. At midday, Pool Bar beside the outdoor swimming pool serves cold drinks and Asian–European light bites, so there is no need to leave your sun lounger.

  2. On weekend afternoons, La Terrasse lays out hot tea and afternoon treats under the trees of the European-style grounds.

  3. Dinner belongs to Phuc Vien on the second floor. The kitchen runs 24/7, so a late return from the bay still finds a table and a stove alight.

  4. Later, Piano Bar in the lobby keeps the piano playing and the cocktail counter open for anyone not ready to close the day.

RESERVATIONS

Group tables and two VIP rooms

Phuc Vien sits on the second floor of the hotel, seating 250 guests, with two separate VIP rooms for meals that call for more privacy.

Because the kitchen runs 24/7, mealtimes follow your schedule rather than the restaurant’s — a late breakfast, an early lunch or a midnight supper all work.

Hold a table on 0787 389 018 – 02033 848 777. The full menu can be read in advance through the link below.

BANQUETS & EVENTS

Weddings

Say your vows at the Royal International Convention Palace — a grand room of bright chandeliers, a cake tower and a champagne tower.

If what you need is a banquet for a whole party rather than a single table, this is where to begin.
