 Hotel
Sofitel Metropole
Hanoi
Established in 1901, the grand dame of Hanoi's hotel scene has an energy all its own and a location that cannot be beat. It has played host to politicians, dignitaries, celebrities, and just about every other VIP that has spent time in the "Paris of the East." We recommend rooms in the Old Wing, with
its beautiful hardwood floors and lovely period decor. The hotel offers expertly prepared and delicious
French-Vietnamese cuisine, cooking classes, and a swimming pool. The best part of the hotel, though, is its location: it's just steps
from gourmet restaurants, prestigious art galleries, upscale
craft shops, and, of course, endless cafes.

 The Park Hyatt
Saigon
With a prime location close to the iconic Opera House on Lam Son Square,
the Park Hyatt Saigon combines the Park Hyatt's signature high style with
an elegant, traditional aesthetic. It has quickly become the premier property in Saigon and is the place to stay. The stylish rooms and suites all have flat screen televisions and marble-tiled bathrooms with a separate bath and rain shower area. There is also a full-service spa with seven treatment rooms, steam room, whirlpool and fully-equipped fitness center. Three restaurants serve Italian, Vietnamese, and Western cuisine; the Park Lounge has floor to ceiling windows, offering a perfect spot to sip a cocktail and admire the city view.

The Nam Hai
Hoi An
The Nam Hai sets a new standard for luxury in Vietnam. Located on the beautiful white sands of a private stretch of China Beach, the property is conveniently just 15 minutes from the ancient port town of Hoi An, an area that has, until now, been lacking a truly 5-star property. Spacious modern rooms and villas range in size from one to five bedrooms, each with its own landscaped garden and views of the South China Sea -- many villas also have private plunge pools. High ceilings, raised platforms, and floor-to-ceiling windows create a sense of airiness and space. When not lounging at one of the three pools or exploring Hoi An, guests can enjoy the world-class spa, gourmet cuisine served in two beautifully designed restaurants, and athletic facilities that include tennis, badminton, and basketball courts as well as a full gym.

La Residence Hotel & Spa
Hue
Named for its former incarnation as the private home of the governor of Hue in the old French Colonial days, La Residence has been artfully restored and renovated to exude modern comfort and style while still romantically evoking the Indochine era. Guests can expect four-poster beds, filmy white curtains, marble bathrooms, and dark wood furniture that beautifully sets off the crisp linens, ivory-colored walls, and leafy views from the windows. The hotel’s charming atmosphere is further enhanced by the its superb location on the Perfume River just across from Hue's famous Citadel. A riverside pool and full service spa round out the experience and make it a wonderful respite from busy days spent exploring Hue’s many cultural highlights.

Evason Ana Mandara
Nha Trang
Ana Mandara means “beautiful home for the guests,” and this luxurious resort was built in the style of an old Vietnamese village. Furnished throughout with native woods and rattan, the resort is located directly on a white sand beach surrounded by tropical gardens. Each of the 17 villas is outfitted with teak wood furniture, local Vietnamese fabric and artwork, en-suite bathrooms and private terraces overlooking the ocean or gardens. Some guests stay at the resort just to be pampered at the holistic spa, located in a coconut plantation alongside the beach. There are three sunken outdoor treatment salas surrounded by pools and miniature waterfalls; the spa also features sunken Jacuzzi baths, Vichy showers, and Japanese-style sunken tubs.

Six Senses Hideaway
Ninh Van Bay (Nha Trang)
Accessible only by boat, the Six Senses Hideaway perches on the tip of Ninh Van Bay and it makes the most of its impressive setting. Banked between towering mountains and the white sand beach, the Hideaway’s architectural style is meant to reflect the beauty of its location -- floor-to-ceiling windows, private pools that seem carved from the rocky coastal edge, and sundecks for enjoying the magnificent views. Also on offer are tennis, watersports, and dive facilities for those that want to do more than lounge on the beach. Of course, being a Six Senses property, the Hideaway offers a comprehensive spa facility with treatments to suit every type: Vietnamese pressure point foot, scalp, and body massage are conducted in breezy outdoor salas.
