JW Marriott International has opened a new hotel in Hanoi following two openings in the past two months in Bangalore and New Delhi in India. The hotel, built on a 75,000-square-meter site in a new central business district in Hanoi, features 450 rooms, six restaurants and a bar, all designed by the acclaimed Carlos Zapata Studio.

The hotel also offers a total of 17 meeting rooms, including two ballrooms of 1,000 square meters each and an extensive public foyer to cater to MICE (meetings, incentives, conferences and exhibitions) events.

“Hanoi has earned itself a coveted spot as a must-visit destination for travelers and we are thrilled to join the city in this exciting time,” said Mitzi Gaskins, vice president and global brand manager for JW Marriott Hotels and Resorts. “Of the 30-plus hotels in our current pipeline, 50 percent are in Asia, which speaks to our commitment to investing in dynamic markets like Vietnam.” (wylee@heraldcorp.com)
