History
Sofitel Saigon Plaza opened in 1997 on Le Duan Boulevard in the heart of Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon), adjacent to the Botanical Gardens and Reunification Palace. Vietnam's French colonial history — as part of French Indochina — makes Sofitel's brand positioning particularly resonant here. The hotel's 286 rooms served as a luxury anchor in Saigon through the early years of Vietnam's tourism boom following doi moi economic reforms. As Ho Chi Minh City has grown into a major Southeast Asian business and tourism hub, the property has remained a key luxury address.
