Accor to Open Two Mercure Hotels in Vietnam this September

Accor is to debut its Mercure hotel brand in Vietnam with the opening of two hotels, one in Hue and another in Hanoi, in September 2009.

The Mercure Hanoi La Gare, scheduled to open 1 September 2009, is located in the heart of the city centre on Ly Thuong Kiet, within the commercial precinct, foreign embassies, state companies, government ministries, opposite of the historic central railway station and within walking distance of Hanoi’s historic Old Quarter and the Hanoi International Exhibition Centre.

Other tourist attractions such as the Temple of Literature (Van Mieu), Hoan Kiem lake, and Hanoi Opera House are less than 15 minutes walk from the hotel.

All of the hotel’s 102 rooms are equipped with premium in-room amenities and wireless internet access. Double glazed windows in guest rooms help insulate external noise as well as maintain thermal comfort. Other hotel facilities include Brasserie Le Pavillion Restaurant serving Vietnamese and international cuisine, a fitness centre, a tour desk, family and connecting rooms, non-smoking floors and a business centre.

The 110 room Mercure Huế Gerbera will benefit from  its prime location on Le Loi Street where views of Perfume River can be enjoyed from most of the guest rooms.

Scheduled to open on 9 September 2009, the hotel’s facilities will include Calamus Restaurant serving Western and local specialties of Huế, a lobby lounge and deli, a bar, a day spa, an outdoor swimming pool and a fitness centre.

The hotel will also have extensive conference facilities providing the choice of a 450sqm ballroom featuring 2-storey floor-to-ceiling glass windows or a 300sqm dividable meeting room.
