BWH Hotels has added a fifth hotel in Vietnam with the signing of a hotel in Hue, the country’s former capital city.

The upscale, 396-room Best Western Premier Sky Hue features two towers, connected by a rooftop sky deck.

Hue’s UNESCO World Heritage-listed attractions include the Imperial Citadel, which dates from 1802 and served as the political, administrative and cultural centre of Vietnam under the Nguyen Dynasty until 1945.

“Vietnam is one of our key strategic markets, so the signing of this property in such an iconic destination – the country’s imperial capital city – is a notable milestone,” said Olivier Berrivin, vice president – APAC, BWH Hotels.

BWH now offers five hotels and resorts in Vietnam: Best Western Premier Sapphire Ha Long, Best Western Premier Sonasea Phu Quoc, Best Western Premier Sonasea Villas Phu Quoc, Best Western Premier Marvella Nha Trang, and Caravelle Saigon, a member of WorldHotels Elite.
