More than 186,000 T+L readers cast votes in the 2024 survey for their favorite hotels, resorts, cities, cruise lines and more.
“This award from Travel + Leisure is particularly meaningful this year as we continue to celebrate the opening of a new chapter in our hotel’s storied history with the successful relaunch of our Heritage Wing following an extensive and inspired refurbishment,” Sofitel Legend Metropole Hanoi General Manager George Koumendakos said.
Earlier this year, the influential U.S.-based travel magazine Travel + Leisure also named Metropole Hanoi one of the “World’s 500 Best Hotels” and Forbes Travel Guide awarded the hotel a Five-Star rating, its top level of recognition, for a fifth consecutive year. DestinAsian magazine also named Metropole Hanoi one of Vietnam’s top city hotels in 2024.
The Metropole Heritage Wing, with 103 guest rooms and suites, was meticulously restored and renovated under a 21-month construction project before reopening to guests in December. The new interiors maintain their traditional aesthetic and feel, and incorporate select original fixtures, while also introducing a considerable measure of bespoke comfort, advanced technology and vibrant color.
The comprehensive reconstruction work was centered on the original wing of the hotel, which was established in 1901 and has played host over the decades to numerous heads of state and royalty, along with world-renowned actors, writers, musicians and others.
The iconic luxury hotel also launched a new dining series earlier this year that brings together Metropole’s award-winning culinary team with some of the best chefs from around the world.
The quarterly ‘Rendez-vous’ series, hosted in the hotel’s modern French fine-dining restaurant Le Beaulieu, spotlights Michelin-star guest chefs working in tandem with Le Beaulieu’s Chef de Cuisine Charles Degrendele to produce one-of-a-kind gastronomic experiences.
