In the heart of Hanoi's Old Quarter,<strong>within walking distance of Hoan Kiem Lake,<\/strong>the \"<strong>Fairmont Hanoi<\/strong>\" opened its doors. This long-established luxury hotel brand brings a new option to Vietnam's tourism scene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Fairmont Hanoi at a glance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<table class=\"wp-block-table\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Item<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Details<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Number of cabins<\/td><td>241 rooms (standard rooms + 38 Fairmont Gold rooms + 12 suites)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Restaurants and bars<\/td><td>8 venues (one supervised by acclaimed chef Luke Nguyen)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Spa and wellness<\/td><td>\u7d043,530\u33a1\u306e\u30b9\u30d1\u65bd\u8a2d\uff08\u6c34\u6cbb\u7642\u6cd5\u30fb\u30d7\u30fc\u30eb\u30b5\u30a6\u30ca\u30fb\u500b\u5ba410\u5ba4\uff09<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Location<\/td><td>Hanoi Old Quarter (steps from Hoan Kiem Lake)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Design<\/td><td>Designed jointly by Perkins Eastman and Aston Design<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A rare Old Quarter x five-star location<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For years, the definitive luxury hotel in Hanoi was the Sofitel Legend Metropole. What sets Fairmont Hanoi apart most is that it enters the Old Quarter district itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Centered on the 36 streets (such as Hang Co Tien Street), the Old Quarter is the beating heart of sightseeing, packed with traditional shops, street stalls, and caf\u00e9s. Yet until now there have been few international five-star hotels nearby,<strong>leaving limited lodging options that combine \"the cultural experience of the Old Quarter\" with \"a luxurious stay\"<\/strong>. Fairmont's opening is expected to fill that gap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The dining highlight\u2014chef Luke Nguyen's Tran Dynasty<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Among the eight restaurants and bars, the one drawing the most attention is<strong>\"Tran Dynasty,\" helmed by acclaimed chef Luke Nguyen<\/strong>and named \"<strong>Tran Dynasty<\/strong>.\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Luke Nguyen, a Vietnamese-Australian chef known worldwide, offers a menu of dishes such as slow-cooked beef braised with dates and spices and sea bass baked in clay\u2014<strong>a contemporary reinterpretation of Vietnamese cuisine through modern techniques<\/strong>. For Japanese travelers, it's a prime chance to experience a new side of Vietnamese food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The spa\u2014one of the largest in Southeast Asia<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u7d043,530\u33a1\uff0838,000\u5e73\u65b9\u30d5\u30a3\u30fc\u30c8\uff09\u3092\u8a87\u308b\u300cCirca Spa, Fitness &amp; Wellness Club\u300d\u306f\u3001\u30cf\u30ce\u30a4\u3067\u3082\u6700\u5927\u7d1a\u306e\u30a6\u30a7\u30eb\u30cd\u30b9\u65bd\u8a2d\u306e\u3072\u3068\u3064\u3002\u4ee5\u4e0b\u306e\u8a2d\u5099\u3092\u5099\u3048\u308b\uff1a<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Hydrotherapy and thermal facilities<\/li><li>Plunge pool (cold-water pool)<\/li><li>Sauna and steam room<\/li><li>10 private treatment rooms<\/li><li>A fitness center with the latest equipment<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Points for Japanese travelers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You'll want to check the official site for Fairmont Hanoi's Japanese-language service, but as an international five-star brand its English support is faultless. The following points are especially useful for Japanese travelers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Access<\/strong>: About 30\u201340 minutes from Noi Bai International Airport to the hotel (by taxi or the hotel's airport transfer service). A superb location within a 5-minute walk of Hoan Kiem Lake.<\/li><li><strong>As a sightseeing base<\/strong>: You can reach major sights like the Old Quarter, the Turtle Tower on Hoan Kiem Lake, the Temple of Literature, and the Thang Long ruins on foot or a short ride away.<\/li><li><strong>Rough room rates<\/strong>: As a five-star property it sits at the high end for Hanoi, but it's relatively reasonable compared with the same brand's other Asian outposts.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Summary<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The opening of Fairmont Hanoi is news that symbolizes a qualitative shift in Vietnamese tourism. With an international five-star brand moving into the historic setting of the Old Quarter,<strong>options have clearly expanded for travelers seeking \"a cultural experience plus a luxury stay.\"<\/strong>\u3002<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you're planning a trip to Hanoi, be sure to add Fairmont Hanoi to your shortlist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Related articles:<a href=\"https:\/\/vietnam-gift.com\/en\/news\/vietnam-q1-tourist\/\">Vietnam welcomes a record 6.76 million foreign visitors in Q1 2026<\/a>\uff5c<a href=\"https:\/\/vietnam-gift.com\/en\/news\/hanoi-train-street-coffee-closure\/\">Hanoi's \"Train Street Coffee\" set to end train services<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Reference:<a href=\"https:\/\/press.accor.com\/fairmont-hotels-amp-resorts-arrives-in-vietnam-with-fairmont-hanoi?lang=eng\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Accor official press release, \"Fairmont Hotels &amp; Resorts Arrives in Vietnam with Fairmont Hanoi\"<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2026\u5e742\u6708\u3001\u30d5\u30a7\u30a2\u30e2\u30f3\u30c8\uff08Fairmont Hotels &amp; Resorts\uff09\u304c\u30d9\u30c8\u30ca\u30e0\u306b\u521d\u4e0a\u9678\u3057 [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"swell_btn_cv_data":"","ssp_meta_description":"2026\u5e742\u6708\u3001\u30cf\u30ce\u30a4\u65e7\u5e02\u8857\u30fb\u30db\u30a2\u30f3\u30ad\u30a8\u30e0\u6e56\u81f3\u8fd1\u306b\u300c\u30d5\u30a7\u30a2\u30e2\u30f3\u30c8\u30fb\u30cf\u30ce\u30a4\u300d\u304c\u958b\u696d\u3002\u30d9\u30c8\u30ca\u30e0\u521d\u9032\u51fa\u3067\u5168241\u5ba4\u3001\u30ec\u30b9\u30c8\u30e9\u30f38\u5e97\u8217\u3001\u7d043,250\u33a1\u306e\u30b9\u30d1\u3092\u5099\u3048\u3001\u30eb\u30fc\u30af\u30fb\u30b0\u30a8\u30f3\u76e3\u4fee\u300cTran Dynasty\u300d\u304c\u76ee\u7389\u3068\u306a\u3063\u3066\u3044\u307e\u3059\u3002","ssp_meta_keyword":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[19,21],"tags":[22,270,65],"purpose":[],"keyword":[],"location":[299,300],"class_list":["post-1781","news","type-news","status-publish","hentry","category-news","category-travel","tag-hanoi","tag-vietnam-sightseeing","tag-hotel","location-hanoi","location-hoan-kiem"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/vietnam-gift.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/1781","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/vietnam-gift.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/vietnam-gift.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/news"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vietnam-gift.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vietnam-gift.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1781"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/vietnam-gift.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/1781\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4322,"href":"https:\/\/vietnam-gift.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/1781\/revisions\/4322"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/vietnam-gift.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1781"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vietnam-gift.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1781"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vietnam-gift.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1781"},{"taxonomy":"purpose","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vietnam-gift.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/purpose?post=1781"},{"taxonomy":"keyword","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vietnam-gift.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/keyword?post=1781"},{"taxonomy":"location","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vietnam-gift.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/location?post=1781"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
