Accor in Vietnam
01.09.2009
Hanoi has had the reputation for being an expensive city to visit, with plentiful 5-star international accommodation, but very little quality mid-market accommodation.
The opening of the Mercure will significantly redress that issue.
Patrick Basset, Accor’s Vice President Vietnam, "Vietnam has seen some phenomenal growth and development in the recent years, it deserves
a high quality mid scale accommodation like the Mercure Hanoi La Gare." Mr Basset adds, "We are proud to introduce the Mercure brand in Vietnam and show both
leisure and business travelers why we are known globally for delivering comfort, service quality and hospitality."
The opening of the Mercure in Hanoi will be followed by the opening in October of Mercure Hue Gerbera in the UNESCO heritage city of Hue.
Accor is the largest international hotel group operating in Vietnam, with hotels in the country’s leading cities and tourist centres including Hanoi,
Ha Long Bay, Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon), Hue, Dalat, Phan Thiet and on Phu Quoc island.
