InterContinental Hotels & Resorts has opened the doors of its first Vietnam property this month – the InterContinental Hanoi Westlake. Built entirely over the serene waters of Hanoi’s historic West Lake, the new hotel features 359 guest rooms and suites showcasing contemporary Vietnam design at its best.
Located just 10 minutes from the heart of Hanoi, the waterfront hotel evokes a resort-like ambiance with its torch-lit Venetian promenades and hard-to-find airiness in Vietnam’s bustling capital. Balconies extend from each of the hotel’s 340 rooms and 19 suites, all with extraordinary views of the 1,235-acre lake, the cityscape, or the property’s tropical gardens.

The Hanoi Westlake is anchored by a 161-room main tower that functions as its own island and is complemented by three pavilions, each with 66 rooms and suites. The rooms rank as the most spacious in the city and provide the latest technology including LCD televisions and high-speed internet access. Each bathroom offers double-basin vanities and both a deep-soaking bathtub and separate walk-in rain shower.
