IHG doubles up on Vignette Collection in Vietnam

IHG Hotels & Resorts has signed a Vignette Collection property in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, in partnership with LCK Hospitality Company, a family business specialising in hospitality development and art dealerships.
 
The 52-key hotel will join IHG's Luxury & Lifestyle portfolio and open to domestic and international guests, including IHG One Rewards members, later this year.
 
This marks the second Vignette Collection property in Vietnam, after Moire Hoi An, Vignette Collection – By IHG.
 
Half an hour drive from Tan Son Nhat International Airport, the hotel will be situated in the city centre, less than one kilometre away from must-visit local attractions such as Ben Thanh Market, Independence Palace, Saigon Notre-Dame Basilica and Saigon Opera House.
 
Dinh Trong Khoa, Director, Development, Vietnam, IHG Hotels & Resorts said: “We are excited to keep growing and strengthening our leading position in Luxury & Lifestyle hospitality in Vietnam by introducing our Vignette Collection brand to Ho Chi Minh City, in partnership with LCK Hospitality Company.

Together, we are bringing to life our shared vision for this property, with the joint aim of delivering great stay experiences to our guests for many years to come. ”
 
Khoa added: “We’re also proud to accelerate the great growth momentum of Vignette Collection. We’re confident this hotel will emulate the success of the recently opened Moire Hoi An, Vignette Collection – By IHG as it becomes the brand’s second property in Vietnam.”
 
Trang Hai Dang, Director, Asset Management, LCK Hospitality Company said: “We are thrilled to partner with IHG for our first hotel project. When considering the best brand for this property, above all we wanted a proven model of success, and were highly impressed by the successful launch of Moire Hoi An, Vignette Collection – By IHG which provides travellers with unique and authentic stay experiences, inspired by its location.
 
Dang added: “The new property will be located alongside antique and art galleries and in close proximity to the Fine Arts Museum. As art dealers, we want to bring to life the rich artistry of Vietnamese charm and culture in a one-of-a-kind stay which will tie in nicely with its location. We look forward to introducing this truly distinctive Vietnamese stay to our guests when it opens.” -TradeArabia News Service
