Hung Thang lies west of Bai Chay, a newer district of hotel and apartment towers grouped around Halong Marina. The property is on the Marina Bay shore, and Marina Bay Beach is 50 m away, so you can reach the sand in about a minute on foot. Paradise Bay Beach is 1.7 km away and Bai Chay Beach 3 km, both easy to reach by taxi.

The Bai Chay Bus Terminal is 2.5 km away and the Hạ Long train station is 2.6 km, so a taxi is the simplest way to reach either one with luggage. For coffee, Cafe Sunshine is 350 m away, and the restaurant Hùng Thắng is 1.4 km away. Both are within a short taxi ride, which suits onward travel by coach or train.

For sightseeing, Cái Dăm Market is 2.1 km away and is the local market for fresh produce and street food. Thien Cung Cave, 4.7 km away, is a limestone cave with stalactite chambers. The Sunworld theme park is 5 km away, in Bai Chay, the main tourist area on the west bank, where the night market and the cable car are also found. The Ga Đại Dương cable car station is 4.9 km away. A half-day that links the market, the cave and the cable car is a practical way to see the area without renting a car.
