Carlson Rezidor Signs Radisson Blu Hotel in Vietnam

Carlson Rezidor has signed a management contract with Eurowindow Nha Trang Investment and Tourism Joint Stock Company to develop the Radisson Blu Cam Ranh Bay.

Scheduled to open in the first quarter of 2019, the Radisson Blu Cam Ranh Bay marks the beginning of the company’s Vietnam growth story, which will focus on Tier 1 cities and resort destinations, as well as second tier cities.

Carlson Rezidor is currently pursuing development opportunities in other destinations in the country including Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh and Danang, while also exploring upcoming destinations such as Phu Quoc, Hue, Dalat, Quy Nhon, Mui Ne, Sapa, and Hai Phong.

“As we grow across Asia Pacific, we are pleased to expand our footprint into Vietnam and into a segment that is currently underserved in the region,” said Thorsten Kirschke, president, Asia Pacific, Carlson Rezidor Hotel Group. “This latest Radisson Blu flagship will provide international and domestic travelers with a full range of innovative design-led products and services, delivering genuine and relevant guest experiences with Radisson Blu’s distinctive Yes I Can!SM service philosophy.”

Radisson Blu Cam Ranh Bay is a 290-key, new build, beachfront resort situated four kilometers from Cam Ranh International Airport, which is expecting to handle 8 million passengers annually by 2030.

Radisson Blu Cam Ranh Bay will offer guests direct access to an 800-meter stretch of unspoiled sandy white beach, as well as 40 high-end villas.

The hotel’s meetings facilities will include a grand ballroom and multiple meeting rooms suitable for both business events and social gatherings.

The resort will offer guests the choice of two restaurants, a lounge bar and a pool bar.

Radisson Blu Cam Ranh Bay will offer a range of sea sports facilities, as well as a pool, a fitness center and full spa facilities.

The resort is close to tourist attractions including Ba Ho Waterfalls, Fairy Spring Waterfalls and Thap Ba Hot Springs. The Long Son Pagoda, Po Nagar Temple, Buu Phuoc Pagoda and An Ton Church are also within easy reach, and given the deep waters off the bay, diving, sailing and surfing are just some of the activities that guests will be able to enjoy.

Vietnam Tourism

With the government’s push to accelerate infrastructural projects, the setting aside of a US$ 100 million fund to promote tourism, the relaxation of visa regulations, as well as a growing number of domestic flights, the outlook for the hospitality market in Vietnam is strong.

According to the Vietnam National Administration of Tourism, the number of international visitors to Vietnam in 2014 was 7,874,312, which represents a 4% increase over the previous year.

The number of international visitors arriving in Hanoi in the first half of 2015 was 8.8% higher than the same period last year, while Ho Chi Minh saw a 3% rise in international arrivals over the same timeframe.
