Life Heritage Resort Hoi An is an oasis of calm in beautiful, historical Hoi An, a former trading port that has left a legacy of stunning architecture and a blend of cultural influences.

The hotel is a short walk away from the charming town centre, but is removed enough to provide a serene place to stay.

It is situated right on the scenic Thu Bon River, where local fishermen ply their trade.

There are lush, tropical grounds giving a spacious feel, with low rise buildings housing contemporary, stylish rooms.

The pool evokes a modern Asian spa with its raised infinity edge, and there’s a tranquil day spa on site.

The buffet breakfasts are served in a gorgeous open sided building with high ceiling beams based on traditional local architecture, and there’s an abundance of fresh local fruits plus a good mix of Asian and western foods available.

The rooms at Life Heritage Resort are contemporary and stylish.

The Superior rooms face an inner courtyard garden area, and come with their own outdoor porch with day beds.

The Junior Suites face either the garden or the river, some with sunken bathtubs.

There is also a Grand Suite available that looks onto the river and features a separate living room with large sofa bed and a private porch.

All rooms come with satellite television and a high speed internet connection.

Senses Restaurant features fine dining and a blend of Asian and Western cuisines.

It also offers ‘Life Cuisine’, the hotel’s signature fusion dishes created by the chef. Café Vienna is a relaxing spot for a coffee or European style pastry, befitting Hoi An’s past European influence, and there’s also Heritage Bar for a glass of wine or light meal.

Life Heritage Resort has a beautiful day spa for massages and treatments, a tranquil swimming pool, well-kept tropical gardens, a selection of three food and beverage outlets, plus bicycle hire to explore the charming town or venture out to the beach.

The resort also offers boat trips, day tours to surrounding cultural sites plus activities like Vietnamese language classes, tai chi and traditional Vietnamese painting lessons.
