Accor, a global leader in hospitality, is proud to announce the signing of Sofitel Sapa Hotel & Residences, a landmark luxury development set to bring Sofitel's signature French elegance and cultural refinement to the breathtaking highlands of Northern Vietnam. This exciting new project will be a combination of 176 rooms and 436 residences. It is expected to open its doors in 2030, marking another milestone in the expansion of Sofitel's portfolio in Southeast Asia.

Perched in the stunning landscapes of Sapa, a region known for its terraced rice fields, mist-covered mountains, and vibrant cultural heritage, Sofitel Sapa will offer guests a unique blend of French Zest and the beauty of Vietnam's most iconic natural surroundings.
