Pullman Hanoi opens its doors as one of the capital’s most modern hotels

Accor, the largest international hotel operator in Asia-Pacific and Vietnam, announces the opening of Pullman Hanoi, the first Pullman brand hotel in Vietnam. Previously known as Hanoi Horison Hotel, Pullman Hanoi recently completed a comprehensive refurbishment that transformed it into one of the city’s most modern properties.

Pullman is Accor’s upscale hotel brand specifically catering to the needs of today's cosmopolitan traveller.

In addition to Pullman Hanoi, three other Pullman hotels are in Accor’s confirmed development pipeline in Vietnam. There are now 38 Pullman Hotels in Asia Pacific with a further committed pipeline of 35 Pullman hotels.
