HIGHLIGHTS Be treated to 5 Star magnificence at La Residence Hue Hotel & Spa, part of the world-renowned MGallery Collection of prestigious boutique hotels. Endowed with opulence, excellence and warmth, this former residence of the French Colonial Governor was meticulously restored in 2005 and redeveloped as a luxury designer hotel. Wine, dine and unwind on the banks of the fabled Perfume River overlooking the former Imperial Citadel in the picturesque city of Hue. Once home to Emperors, the Citadel is now preserved as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Speaking of food and wine, gourmet dining is serious business at La Residence. The main restaurant, Le Parfum, serves up tantalising French-Vietnamese fusion cuisine against the backdrop of the beautiful Perfume River. Be perfectly placed to enjoy some of region’s best attractions, including the Citadel, The Thanh Toan Japanese Tiled Roof Bridge and My An Hot Springs, with Da Nang’s famous beaches just a few hours away. TOP 5 EXPERIENCES IN HUE Pagodas Hue is home to many magnificent pagodas, however, if you only visit one pagoda in Hue, it must be Thien Mu. The pagoda is a sacred destination stooped in local legend and features seven stories, each dedicated to a human form taken by the Buddha or a step of enlightenment (depending on whom you ask). Perfume River The river splices the city’s imperial highlights on the north bank and the European-inspired wonders on the south bank. It’s a destination in its own right, especially for trips upstream to the tombs of the Nguyen emperors, the temples that cling to its banks, and the picturesque hillside. Food Though Vietnam’s signature dish, pho, hails from Hanoi, Hue is widely regarded as the culinary capital of Vietnam. Story goes that the Nguyen emperors demanded a different dish for every meal throughout the year. Myth or not, the city’s chefs are among the most creative anywhere. Palaces and Pavilions The city, especially within the walls of the Imperial Citadel and the compounds of the Nguyen Emperors, is an East Asian wonderland of palaces and pavilions. Many of the palaces and pavilions are UNESCO recognised and treasured by the locals. French Architecture During the colonial era from the 1880s to the 1940s, the French built railway stations, bridges, schools and villas. The 1930-built palace that was part of the colonial governor’s residence (now La Residence Hue Hotel & Spa!) is an exceptional example of Art Deco architecture, with its bowed facade and porthole windows. REVIEWS “I had researched this hotel on TripAdvisor and booked it for 3 nights. From the moment you walk through their doors the staff are amazing. The rooms are beautiful! The pool, spa and restaurants are fantastic too. I’ve stayed in many many hotels but this is one of the best.” TripAdvisor “Location is good, near the city centre. The pool by the river was very nice and relaxing. Our room was a charming suite originally designed during the French colonial era (1930s). The staff were very attentive, friendly and professional. Breakfast was excellent with varieties of fruit, Vietnamese savory bites (including yummy Bun Bo) and wide range of international food.
