If you are looking for Eastin Phat Linh Hotel Halong, the property is now known as DeLaSea Ha Long Hotel. It stands on Ha Long Marine Boulevard in the Bai Chay area, with city-view and ocean-view rooms, an indoor pool, a restaurant and facilities for meetings and celebrations.
Consider it for a hotel-based Halong stay, a family trip where room layout matters, or a night before or after a cruise. Choose your room by its confirmed view and sleeping arrangement. A room overlooking the bay does not mean that the cruise pier, beach and main sightseeing attractions are all immediately outside the hotel.
Location and booking details
- Current name: DeLaSea Ha Long Hotel.
- Address: A9, Lot 1, Ha Long Marine Boulevard, Bai Chay, Ha Long, Quang Ninh.
- Main telephone: +84 203 6503 289.
- Reservations: +84 974 434 786.
Use the current name and address when arranging a taxi or hotel transfer. If an older booking record says Phat Linh or Eastin Phat Linh, match the street address and confirm the reservation with the hotel before traveling.
The Marine Boulevard location works best when you are comfortable using a car for outings farther across Bai Chay, to Hon Gai or to a cruise terminal. If your main priority is walking straight from your accommodation to a particular beach, restaurant strip or attraction, check that walking route before choosing the hotel.
Which room should you book?
The most useful distinction is between a standard room, a larger room and a suite with separate living space. The words “ocean view,” “terrace” and “suite” describe different benefits; they should not be treated as interchangeable upgrades.
- Deluxe City Room: about 33 square meters, with a king bed or twin beds. A practical starting point if you will spend most of the day sightseeing and do not need a guaranteed sea-facing room.
- Deluxe Ocean View Room: about 39 square meters, with a king bed or twin beds. Choose this category when the sea outlook is one of your reasons for staying.
- Premier King Room: about 56 square meters with a king bed and panoramic outlook. Ask which direction the assigned room faces if the bay view matters more than extra floor space.
- Suite Ocean View Room: about 65 square meters, with a king bed and separate bedroom and living room. Useful when you want somewhere to sit or work without using the sleeping area.
- Suite Executive Ocean View: a suite option with a separate living area, balcony and bathtub. Request its exact layout and confirmed floor area when comparing it with the Suite Ocean View category.
- Terrace Suite: a top-floor option with private garden space and a city outlook. Choose it for outdoor space rather than assuming it is the same as an ocean-view suite.
- President Suite: about 98 square meters with two bedrooms, two king beds and a living room. Check the permitted occupancy and children’s arrangements before treating it as a substitute for several rooms.
For a family, give the hotel every child’s age and ask where each person will sleep. A large room with one king bed does not automatically include an extra bed, and two rooms next to each other do not necessarily have a connecting door.
If a balcony, bathtub or unobstructed view is essential, put that requirement into the booking confirmation. For a short pre-cruise stay, the simpler room may be sufficient; a suite makes more sense when you expect to spend part of the afternoon or evening in it.
Pool, gym and spa
The indoor swimming pool is on the third floor. It offers an alternative activity when you do not want to go out, but an indoor setting should not be taken as a promise of warm water. For a winter stay, ask about the current water temperature, heating and any maintenance closure.
The hotel also has a fitness center and spa facilities. Confirm the pool and gym access included in your room rate, and ask for the spa’s current treatment menu, duration and price before reserving. Spa treatments and private karaoke sessions should be budgeted separately unless your package explicitly includes them.
When traveling with children, check the pool arrangements and supervision requirements. If mobility is a concern, ask about the route from your room to the pool, restaurant and entrance, as well as the bathroom layout in the room you intend to book.
Breakfast, dinner and drinks
The Glass House is the hotel’s restaurant, serving buffet breakfast and other meals. Check whether breakfast is included for everyone on your reservation, particularly children or a third adult, and confirm the serving window if you have an early departure.
Splash Bar is connected to the pool area. Ask which bar and afternoon-tea services are running during your stay, and whether you need to book ahead. An advertised tea set or special dinner is not automatically part of the room price.
For a late arrival or dinner after a day cruise, confirm the kitchen’s last order time before relying on a hotel meal. Tell staff about allergies or dietary requirements in advance and ask what the kitchen can actually prepare, including the sauces and cooking ingredients.
Using DeLaSea as a base for a Halong cruise
If you want to keep the same hotel room and explore the bay during the day, a two-night hotel stay can leave a full day for the boat trip without moving your luggage onto an overnight cruise.
The six-hour Luxury Halong Bay Day Cruise visits Sung Sot Cave, Luon Cave and Ti Top Island. Choose the package with transfers if you need transport, and provide DeLaSea’s name and address so the pickup arrangement can be confirmed. The cruise-only package requires you to reach the meeting point yourself.
For an overnight cruise, confirm the actual departure terminal before arranging your car. Tuan Chau Marina and Halong International Cruise Port in Bai Chay are separate places. Ask for the cruise lounge, a location pin and the check-in deadline; a booking that says only “Halong port” is not enough to plan the transfer.
If you return from a cruise before your hotel room is ready, ask about luggage storage and early check-in. Early room access depends on availability and your rate conditions, so do not plan a guaranteed shower or rest immediately after reaching the hotel.
Other outings and business stays
For a land-based day, choose one part of Halong to explore instead of repeatedly crossing the city. Sun World activities and Bai Chay are one direction to consider; the Quang Ninh Museum and the Hon Gai waterfront form a different outing. Check the attraction’s operating calendar and your transport plan before leaving.
If you want to visit an evening market, ask reception which market is operating that day and where its current entrance is. Confirm the actual destination rather than assuming that every listing for “Halong Night Market” refers to the same place.
For business or event travel, DeLaSea has the Sapphire meeting room, Grand Ballroom and Crystal Palace event space. Ask for a quote based on your seating arrangement, equipment, catering and accommodation needs. Room capacity varies with the setup, and an event package should be priced separately from an ordinary overnight stay.
Before confirming your stay
- Match the room: category, bed type, view, balcony or terrace, and occupancy for your whole party.
- Check the full rate: breakfast, tax, extra beds, children’s charges, parking and any included hotel facilities.
- Plan arrival and departure: confirmed check-in and checkout times, late-arrival arrangements, luggage storage and transport to your next destination.
- Check the cancellation conditions: compare the actual rate rules, not only the lowest nightly price.
DeLaSea is worth considering when you want hotel facilities and a choice of room layouts on the Bai Chay side of Halong. The key is to book the view and space you need, then organize outings and cruise transfers around the hotel’s actual location.
