Designed by the renowned Perkins Eastman and Aston Design, the architecture and interior design of Fairmont Hanoi is the result of extensive research into the culture and history of Thang Long. The hotel takes inspiration from the art of lacquer with the traditional colours of Vietnam, the Indochinese style from the French colonial period, and draws motifs from Vietnam’s dynasties.
Located in the heart of Hanoi, only a 10-minute walk to Hoan Kiem Lake and the Old Quarter, Fairmont Hanoi is poised to offer guests an urban resort with a wide range of offerings such as six dining and bar venues including a rooftop restaurant, along with two indoor and outdoor swimming pools, an extensive gym, wellness spa and bathhouse.
“The signing of the first Fairmont city hotel in Vietnam is a significant step forward in Accor’s development within the country,” said Garth Simmons, Chief Executive Officer of Accor Southeast Asia, Japan and South Korea.
“Our ambition is to debut a greater collection of premium and luxury offerings to meet the rapidly growing demand for high-end hospitality in the market. Fairmont Hanoi will offer an experience that is steeped in local culture and is sure to become intrinsic to the local neighbourhood. The signing of this iconic address demonstrates our appreciation for Vietnam’s development of tourism and its ability to provide leading hotel standards,” Simmons said.
