Legacy Yen Tu - MGallery 5 stelle

During our Vietnam trip in March of 2023, we stayed in several 5-star hotels. We give Legacy Yen Tu the highest mark for its price performance, food, service, and extraordinary architecture. In particular, we love the breakfast buffet at these 5-star hotels since we tend only to eat breakfast and one additional meal per day to leave more time for sightseeing. We visited this hotel during their off-season, so only a few people ate at the breakfast buffet. Despite this, Legacy still pulled out all stops and provided a full spread of dishes made fresh. Before staying at Legacy, we stayed at InterContinnetal Danang, which also had fantastic architecture. We learned from Legacy's GM Thai that legendary designer Bill Bensley designed both hotels. Of the two hotels, though, Legacy took the commitment to stay true to the design even more seriously. To keep with the 13th-century theme, even seemingly inconsequential things in the rooms, such as notepads and pens, were custom designed to fit the 13th-century theme, and tissue boxes were cleverly covered with custom wooden boxes. The attention to detail paid to stay true to the design is admirable. We especially want to extend a note of gratitude to Thai, who, despite being busy running the hotel, spent an hour showing us the various design considerations of the hotel, including the effort put into source materials. His informative tour helped us gain even more appreciation for the work that went into building this beautiful hotel. We also tried their herbal massage at the spa and found it incredibly relaxing. We love that the spa fee includes using the sauna, steam room, and hot whirlpool. On our last day, our flight wasn't until late afternoon, but checkout time was 12 noon. The lady at the front desk kindly extended our stay so my husband and I could enjoy a 3000 ft swim in their beautiful, vast, rectangular outdoor pool (perfect for lap swims!) before getting a leisurely lunch. Legacy is a hotel we plan to return to in future visits to Vietnam. If there's anything that would make the stay even better (and we're nitpicking here), it would be a more extensive gym/trainer offering. We like workout classes (cardio, strength, stretch, you name it), so if the hotel offers more workout classes, we can see ourselves doing an extended stay of 2 weeks or more and using the hotel as a base for work-from-home.

This is an amazing hotel and location. The building reflects a 14 th century monastery design and is located at the base of the sacred Yen Tu mountain. The hotel gives a wow factor from the moment you arrive to the moment u leave. The rooms are luxurious and comfortable. The grounds are relaxing and well maintained. The staff are attentive and friendly, working hard to make sure your stay is a great one. The pool and spa areas are beautiful and focused on relaxation. The hotel offers free classes in different yoga and meditations . There are plenty of opportunities to walk and enjoy the green. The breakfast buffet was extensive and delicious with special stations for vegans and those who required gluten free. We chose a shuttle bus (aka Limousine) from Hanoi which was prearranged with the hotel. We find this a more interesting and better option than a private car. You should note the emphasis of this hotel is on relaxation and therefore there is no TV. There is internet.

Spa services in here is great. Ms Huong , Thu, Mai have done the relaxing facial treatment and foot massages for me and my husband. Last time, we did full body massage as well. Everything is awesome. Will come back.

Fabulous all around. I loved it here. Beautiful and peaceful/tranquil. The decor is absolutely stunning and every detail has been carefully appointed. I loved the swimming pool so much that I swam twice even though it wasn’t that warm outside. Thu in the spa did a fantastic job — best foot massage I ever had.

Stay for a night here before proceeding to Ha Long Bay. Warm welcome received from Andy upon check-in. The entire feeling of this property was very cultural and peaceful. Was given a full guided tour. Will definitely share my unique experience with my frens and family.
