Most furnishings at the hotel, including in guest rooms, are crafted from rattan and display an elaborate amount detailing. There is giant Vietnamese wall hanging behind the front desk, also made from rattan.

All rooms come with air-conditioning, flat-screen TVs, electric kettles, minibars, free Wi-Fi, work desks, robes and slippers, and hairdryers. Bathrooms are also large and bright, and feature polished marble floors and walls, contemporary above-counter sinks, and upscale toiletries. Rainfall showers are a nice, modern touch.
