soaking in the view of Hanoi from over 300 metres above the city.
Commenting on the hotel opening,
Leanne Harwood, Vice President, Operations, South East Asia and Korea, IHG,
said: “Hanoi is truly a booming travel destination in the region, with
double-digit year-on-year growth in international arrivals and
attracting over four million visitors in
2016 alone. Opening our second InterContinental hotel in Hanoi puts us
in even better position to offer top-notch luxury accommodation for
travellers in the country.”
“The
launch marks an exciting time for IHG and for the InterContinental
brand as we have made history by welcoming guests to the highest hotel
in Vietnam. The InterContinental brand has been offering
luxury travel for over 70 years, and we are looking forward to our
guests experiencing the sophistication of the InterContinental life at
the new InterContinental Hanoi Landmark72,” she said.
MICE boost
Harwood
added that the capital’s MICE (meetings, incentives, conferences, and
exhibition) profile is boosted by the new hotel opening. The new hotel’s
MICE offering comprises state-of-the-art and versatile
meetings spaces, totalling 2,861 square metres with eight function
rooms ranging from 70 to 920 sqm. The hotel boasts one of Hanoi’s
largest pillar-less ballroom that accommodates up to 1,000 people, which
is complemented by the largest ballroom foyer (1,020

glamorous social events.
Sky-high dining
Sky Lounge
3
Spoons
The hotel’s enviable sky-high location has rocketed Hanoi’s restaurant and bar scene to new heights. Located on the 62nd
floor are the hotel’s showpiece restaurants and bars including 3
Spoons,
with triple market-style kitchens each serving unique cuisines, Hive
Lounge, an exquisite lounge and centrepiece of the hotel’s lobby, the
vibrant
Q Bar and Stellar, the hotel’s signature restaurant and steakhouse.
Hive
Lounge
Stellar
is a contemporary and multi-concept steakhouse embracing timeless
traditions with a modern twist, serving only the best and most premium
cuts of beef. It features private dining rooms including
a cooking studio, wine, and cheese room and a separate teppanyaki micro
restaurant offering premium cuts from Japan. Stellar’s standout
highlight is its in-house meatsmith service – a first for Hanoi – where
the restaurant’s resident butcher and meat expert
guides diners through the cuts of in-house-aged meat, from the
butchery. Similar to a sommelier recommending suitable wines, the
meatsmith will give diners one-on-one and personalised attention,
guiding them through the intricacies of the cuts, the provenance
of the meats and marble grading followed by on-the-spot carving and
grilling the meats to perfection right by the dining table.

John Kim General Manager, InterContinental Hanoi Landmark72, said:
“The
InterContinental Hanoi Landmark72 is one of the most impressive
InterContinental hotels in the region. Our position at the Landmark72
lets us offer the finest facilities and amenities
for both business and leisure travellers to truly experience the
glamour of the InterContinental life and we are confident that the hotel
will soon become one of the city’s icons of modern luxury travel.”
