Metropole Hanoi, the only hotel in Vietnam to win placement on this year\u2019s list, was hailed by the magazine\u2019s editors as \u201ca dazzling destination that flashes back beautifully to a bygone age.\u201d Cond\u00e9 Nast Traveler<\/em>\u2019s annual Gold List has been compiled for 31 years and serves as a benchmark for excellence in global hospitality<\/a>.<\/p>\n

A total of 16 hotels and resorts in Asia were spotlighted in this year\u2019s Gold List. The editors heaped high praise on Metropole Hanoi in their review of the hotel.<\/p>\n

\u201cBehind its classical white fa\u00e7ade, two buildings \u2013 the original and recently renovated Heritage Wing and the neoclassical Opera Wing, named for its proximity to the Hanoi Opera House \u2013 envelop a serene courtyard garden and sparkling pool flanked by a bar,\u201d the editors wrote.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe historic suites, named after famous former guests, including Charlie Chaplin and novelist Graham Greene, exude a sense of old-world grandeur, while its peaceful French Quarter locale makes it a no-brainer when planning a trip to Hanoi,\u201d they added.<\/p>\n

Sofitel Legend Metropole Hanoi General Manager George Koumendakos said, \u201cThis is a tremendous honor from Cond\u00e9 Nast Traveler <\/em>and a recognition of what makes the Grand Dame of Vietnam so special: our rich history, our elegant and sophisticated accommodations<\/a>, and our uncompromising commitment to warm and personalized service.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Cond\u00e9 Nast Traveler<\/em> award follows other major accolades for Metropole Hanoi this year.
