Riverside elegance in the Mekong Delta
Relax in colonial‑style riverside luxury, framed by lush gardens and water‑front views.
Location
Set on the quiet banks of the Hau River, Victoria Can Tho Resort is a peaceful base in the heart of Vietnam’s Mekong Delta. The property is surrounded by tropical gardens yet just minutes from the city’s markets, floating villages and cultural sites. It offers the perfect blend of riverside calm and local life, with its own boat shuttle to the city centre.

The resort has 92 rooms and suites, all finished in a warm, colonial style with wooden floors and traditional touches. Superior and Deluxe Rooms offer garden or pool views, while spacious suites include living areas and private balconies overlooking the river. Every room includes air conditioning, Wi-Fi, satellite TV, minibars and comfortable, classic furnishings.
Amenities
Two outdoor swimming pools sit amid the gardens, alongside a riverside spa offering Vietnamese and Western treatments. There’s a fitness centre, tennis court, small playground, and elegant indoor and outdoor dining. One of the highlights is the Lady Hau, a traditional rice barge now used for evening cruises and dinner on the water.
Activities
Explore the Mekong Delta by boat, with early-morning trips to the famous Cai Rang floating market or guided visits to nearby villages. The hotel also offers cooking classes, bike hire, and sunset cruises. There’s always the option to simply unwind by the pool or enjoy a quiet drink in the lounge as the sun sets over the river.
Sustainability
Victoria Can Tho is committed to responsible travel. The resort has an advanced waste management system, recycles organic waste into fertiliser, and works actively to reduce plastic use. It supports local artisans, sources food locally, and takes part in environmental clean-up efforts along the riverbanks and canals.
