Most visitors to Halong Bay are looking forward to a peaceful and relaxing journey with a normal cruise trip. However there are also a few tourists looking for an unusual activity aside from kayaking or swimming, that is Casino.

Casino is not a popular business in Vietnam but you can still find some of them in Northern Vietnam, specifically in Hai Phong City and Halong City.

Vietnam's current law considered gambling is legal violations. And so the casinos exist on the territory of Vietnam do not allow Vietnamese to play but only serve foreign guests. Halong City is the same, its only casino – located at Royal Hotel & Villas allows only foreign guests to come and play.

Casino at Royal Hotel & Villas is large and modern, including 4 floors with a total area of 7,250 m2. This casino employes professional managers from England, South Africa, Taiwan, Malaysia, Singapore who have many years of management experience in the famous casinos in the world as Genting Casino, New World Casino, thus its quality of services is classed as international standard.
