lines: Cho Lon Tours, a former state-owned tour operator focusing on Vietnamese, Chinese, and other Asian

customers and a hotel & resort division that consults and manages properties developed by Thien Minh Group

and its partners. In 2010, it acquired Victoria Hotels and Resorts to expand its upscale and hotel services in

popular tourist areas in Vietnam.

To date Victoria Hotels & Resorts has 6 hotels in operation: Victoria Phan Thiet Beach Resort & Spa (opened

in April 1997), Victoria Sapa Resort & Spa (opened in March 1998), Victoria Can Tho Resort (opened in

October 1998), Victoria Chau Doc Hotel (opened in November 1999) and Victoria Hoi An Beach Resort &

Spa (opened in April 2001) and the last one in Cambodia, Victoria Angkor Resort & Spa (opened early 2004).

Victoria Sapa Resort & Spa was the rst hotel before Victoria Phan Thiet Beach Resort & Spa to get the full

foreign license following the subsidization of 100% foreign capital. Subsequently, Victoria Hoi An Beach Resort

and Victoria Chau Doc received their licenses too. The others properties are joint ventures with local partners.

Victoria Hotels & Resorts is now a leading international hotel chain in Indochina and employs more than 1,400

people including a multinational team of expatriates such as French, German, Swiss, Filipinos It also believes

in constant upgrading of its existing properties to cater to high end clientele and maintain a high level of service.

Green efforts are high in priority in all upgrading projects to ensure sustainable tourism and the preservation

of the delicate environment surrounding the properties. Victoria has sourced for certied Green Labeled

operating equipment during the renovations to minimize energy consumption in their new guest rooms.

In May 2000, Victoria offered 4 departures per week for the Victoria Express Train linking Hanoi to Lao Cai,

the Sapa railway station. Since November 2006, departures are increased to 6 times per week with new eet of

4 sleeping carriages and Le Tonkin dining carriage.

In November 2007, Victoria Chau Doc Hotel successfully launched Le Jarai, a converted traditional rice barge

offering deluxe day cruises between Long Xuyen and Chau Doc. Le Jarai offers a spacious dining area, open air

roof deck for sunbathing, library lounge with day beds and even a private massage chamber.

In 2008, US$ 2 million was invested in Sapa, Hoi An and Can Tho. The spa in Sapa was totally revamped

with a new Zen concept and additional facilities; a 20 new Junior Suite category was created in Hoi An by

renovating existing beachfront rooms; all rooms in Can Tho were given new soundproof doors and new

hardwood oors.

Since September 2008, new speedboats were also added to Victorias eet providing daily transfers between

Chau Doc and Phnom Penh on the Mekong River. The eet consists now of two 22-seater and one 6-seater

comfortable speedboats.

The Lady Hau, provided by Victoria Can Tho Resort is a remodelled rice barge, available for breakfast, sunset,

and dinner cruises. Built in the delta province of Tien Giang, it was designed as the barges that have been used

for decades to ship rice from the delta to Ho Chi Minh City.

In 2011, The Lady Hau has been totally renovated, lower part of the hull has been replaced, the roof has been

changed, and re alarm system & water level alarm system has been installed.

Victoria Hotels & Resorts has long believed in the strong tourism appeal of Vietnam since the early days,

and thus preferred to develop properties in off-the-beaten track locations where there were no signicant

competition. Their choice of these laid back locations has played a signicant role in putting these destinations

onto the maps of international tourists and tour operators, thus earning the hotel group several awards over the

years, including Pioneering Distant Destinations and Best Hotels by the Vietnam Economic Times.

Siem Reap was subsequently chosen to further expand the spirit of French Indochine within the hotel group.

Needless to say, future expansions would be focused on locations that enable Victoria to keep this spirit alive,

and the deep sense of adventure.

The success of Victoria Hotels & Resorts lies on the unique combination of below:

Choice of location: with gorgeous views on the Mekong Delta at the river intersections; along the far stretchesof beautiful South China Sea beaches; deep within the mountainous range of North Vietnam; cradle of the

Angkor Temples.

Atmosphere: charming hotels with Indochine style and French colonial architecture, quality furniture

from Vietnam and Cambodia and preservation of local handicrafts.

Quality of services: combination of both discovery and relaxation with a wide range of activities; the comforts

of a rated international hotel (swimming-pool, bars, restaurants serving quality cuisine, sporting activities,

spa) and nally impeccable welcoming and attentive services.
