Accor Opens Novotel Hotel in Saigon

Accor has opened the Novotel Saigon Centre, a newly-built hotel in District 1 of Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.

Located in the heart of the city’s business and entertainment area, the hotel is just a short 20-minute drive from HCMC’s Tan Son Nhat International Airport and merely 1.5 km away from Saigon Railway Station. It is only a few steps from the city’s landmarks, such as the Reunification Palace, Central Post Office, Notre Dame Cathedral and Ben Thanh Market.

The 247 guest rooms and suites at the hotel feature a connectivity panel and switchable transparent bathroom glass, and guests can enjoy free Wi-Fi internet access throughout the hotel.

The Novotel Saigon Centre features four distinguished food and beverage outlets. With modern décor and an open kitchen concept, Novotel’s signature restaurant - The Square - offers international cuisine, with both buffet and à la carte options. The Premier Lounge provides a variety of drinks and snacks to guests staying on Premier Floors, offering exclusive benefits such as a private breakfast buffet and all day refreshments. Bar 167 Faubourg allows guests to sit inside in a modern and relaxed atmosphere or outside on the terrace, watching people bustling through the city. Guests can also relax by the pool and enjoy cocktails and refreshments with a view of the city centre at the Pool Bar.

The hotel's five meeting rooms offer state-of-the-art equipment and facilities, while providing over 400 square metres of space that can accommodate up to 350 persons. Technical support teams are always on standby to ensure the success of all corporate or social events, medium-to-large functions and parties.

To counterbalance with relaxation, the hotel’s wellness centre, In|Balance, extends its invitation to an in-house swimming pool, fitness centre, sauna and spa.

Mr. Thierry Le Ponner, Novotel Saigon Centre’s General Manager, said, “Novotel Saigon Centre offers a new alternative for visitors, whether the purpose of stay is for business or leisure. The hotel’s modern facilities combine technology and well-being to respond perfectly to all travellers’ needs. With spacious rooms, superb services, and a strong commitment to sustainable development, this hotel is destined to make an impression with the best hospitality experience for all guests and raise the bar for all 4-star hotels in this city.”

To celebrate its opening the Novotel Saigon Centre is offering a special introductory rate of US$100++ for a Superior room. The promotion is valid until 30 September 2012 and includes free Wi-Fi internet, free access to fitness centre and swimming pool, and 10% off for any treatment at In|Balance Spa.
