Thai hospitality company Dusit Hotels and Resorts announced that its newest property in Vietnam is slated to open on 9th May. Located in the heart of the Vietnamese capital, the Dusit Le Palais Tu Hoa Hanoi is a refined urban sanctuary that also serves as Dusit’s debut in Hanoi.

That said, the new property brings Dusit's signature Thai-inspired gracious hospitality to the tranquil shores of West Lake, offering an elegant blend of modern luxury and timeless Vietnamese charm. Dusit International chief operating officer Gilles Cretallaz said of the property: “We are honoured to expand our presence in Vietnam and bring Dusit's distinctive Thai-inspired gracious hospitality to Hanoi for the very first time. Inspired by the remarkable legacy of Princess Từ Hoa, Dusit Le Palais Tu Hoa Hanoi is much more than a new hotel: it is a celebration of cultural heritage, artistic spirit, and heartfelt service. By seamlessly blending the elegance of Vietnamese tradition with the warmth of Thai hospitality, we aim to create enriching experiences that resonate deeply with our guests and foster meaningful connections with the local community.” Regal inspirations Inspired by the legacy of Princess Từ Hoa, a royal figure celebrated for her pioneering contributions to the silk industry in the Nghi Tàm area near West Lake, the hotel captures the spirit of craftsmanship, community, and cultural pride that defines the neighbourhood. A daughter of Emperor Lý Thần Tông, who reigned from 1128 to 1138, Princess Từ Hoa famously left the royal court to cultivate mulberry trees and teach silk weaving to the local people. Her legacy lives on in the area's continued association with quality craftsmanship; and now, in the design and spirit of Dusit Le Palais Tu Hoa Hanoi, where traditional elegance is thoughtfully reimagined for the modern era.
