A New Chapter of Riverside Elegance Begins By The Thu Bon River
Hoi An, Vietnam, March 2026: Riverside luxury in Hoi An is redefined with the introduction of Thu Bon River Suites at Anantara Hoi An Resort, a new suite category created to add style and sophistication to heritage living on the banks of the river.
These eight ground-floor suites have been transformed into larger yet intimate spaces, offering extended indoor and outdoor living areas, blending comfort with authentic charm and direct riverfront views presenting glimpses into Hoi An’s authentic daily life.
Interior design features include elegant local craftsmanship and individually-designed furniture pieces reflecting Hoi An’s multi-cultural influences and colonial charm. The new refined bathrooms highlight striking free-standing claw-foot bathtubs, elegant white marble finishes and chic double vanities.
In addition to the new suite category, ten Premium River Suites across the ground and first floors have been fully renovated and redesigned, also with distinctive interior features.
The new Anantara Two Bedroom River Suite has been converted from one bedroom, allowing ideal flexibility for families and friends. This suite offers two separate bedrooms and bathrooms and an extensive balcony directly overlooking the river.
Each of the 19 new suites features refreshed interiors with French colonial charm and Asian influences, celebrating Hoi An’s cultural blends and creating the most luxurious riverside suites in the Ancient Town.
These suites also now offer dedicated room host service for the ultimate in personalised stays, in-suite check-in and check-out and a 60-minute treatment per person, per stay, plus complimentary private steam room access at Anantara Spa.
The resort’s Art Space Restaurant & Bar has also undergone an extensive makeover with a complete reimagination of its outdoor terrace creating a tropical-style concept and introducing trendy signature cocktails and tapas dishes to the menu.
A sit-up bar adds to the social element, along with a dedicated stage area for weekly live music events. Clever lighting, mixed-height tables, chairs and sofas all complement the chic and fashionable new space.
“We are thrilled to reveal our transformed suites and restaurant as we kick off 2026 and offer amazing new resort experiences. These elevated spaces bring enhanced luxury to life as we continue to create unforgettable journeys for all our guests”, said Ross Sanders, Area General Manager, Minor Hotels Vietnam.
Anantara Hoi An Resort is a luxuriously-charming cultural hideaway, edging the Thu Bon River in the historic port town and just a few minutes’ walk from the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Hoi An’s Ancient Town.
