We stayed: Vinpearl Landmark 81, Autograph Collection

What’s the deal 

Located in the financial hive of Ho Chi Minh City, the Vinpearl Landmark 81 inhabits floors 47 to 71 of the namesake Landmark 81, the tallest building in Vietnam and the second-tallest in South East Asia. This Autograph Collection hotel offers breathtaking 360-degree, long-range cityscape that includes a high vantage over the Saigon River.

Guest rooms beautifully showcase contemporary Vietnamese design with windows that give near endless views of the city and sculptural, free-standing tubs encased in elegant marble bathrooms. If you can pry yourself away from your luxurious roost in the clouds, indulge in lavish buffet spreads at the Oriental Pearl restaurant. Be sure to make the most of the stunning seafood buffet, which features an abundant selection of the freshest lobster, oysters, prawns, crab and so much more. Meanwhile, The Cloud is where you can sit back and sip Vietnamese coffee or crafted cocktails and fine wines.

The Landmark 81 sits within Vinhomes Central Park, an urban area that houses a shopping centre, ice skating rink, a plethora of dining and drinking venues and a kids’ play centre. It’s all here in this futuristic development and iconic fixture on the city’s skyline.

Why stay?

It’s hard to describe the feeling of waking up to a sea of mist that slowly lifts to unveil the city as the sun rises or basking in the glow of a vibrant sunset. Every moment spent at the hotel is one to savour, no matter the time of day or weather conditions. Whether you’re relaxing in your room, dining at the restaurants, enjoying the roof deck infinity pool (and its bar), spoiling yourself at the Horizon Spa and Wellness centre or working out in the gym, Vinpearl Landmark 81 creates an experience that’s never short of mesmerising.

Don’t miss

Book a room with access to the Club Lounge on the 71st floor. It’s open all day and offers impressive spreads for all meals and everything in between, with cocktails to wind down with as the sun sets and the city lights starts to glimmer below.
