Go Next: Sofitel Metropole Hanoi, Vietnam
Hanoi’s most storied hotel, the French Colonial-style Sofitel Metropole, has welcomed ambassadors, heads-of-state and, yes, Graham Greene since its opening in 1901. There’s an unmistakable air of romance to the place: ceiling fans and large wooden shutters and lush plants and lovely white linens and… (we could go on and on) Step off the sultry, steamy city streets (buzzing with motorbikes) and you’ll slip into an oasis of calm. Both French cuisine and Hanoi Specialties await at the hotel’s fine restaurants. After exploring the vibrant city, retire to a chamber that radiates historical grandeur with all the modern comforts like Internet, LCD TVs and DVD players.
