The first Curio Collection by Hilton hotel in Vietnam, located in Phu Quoc, has caught the attention of the renowned American travel magazine Travel + Leisure. It has been featured in the list of the best new hotels in Vietnam for 2023.
In their latest Instagram post and article on the official Travel + Leisure Asia website, the magazine listed the top 7 newly opened outstanding hotels in Vietnam for 2023, including Anam Mui Ne, Voco Ma Belle Danang, Fusion Resort & Villas Danang, La Festa Phu Quoc, Grand Mercure Hanoi, Danang Marriott Resort & Spa, and Non Nuoc Beach Villas.

Of particular note is the La Festa Phu Quoc hotel, part of the Curio Collection by Hilton, as it not only holds the distinction of being the "latecomer" hotel of 2023 but also marks the inaugural project of the premium Curio Collection by Hilton brand in Vietnam, under the esteemed global hospitality conglomerate Hilton. La Festa Phu Quoc stands out as a monumental and passionately crafted hotel project by the Sun Group within the Sunset Town community in Phu Quoc.
The hotel exudes the essence of the Amalfi Coast
According to the description by author Jovel Chan, the hotel embodies the essence of the beautiful Amalfi Coast with picturesque scenery overlooking Phu Quoc's new iconic landmark, the Kiss Bridge. The white terracotta vaults and vibrant blue mosaic tiles, typical of the Italian coastal regions, are cleverly interwoven with Vietnamese cultural elements such as ceramic cups or woven bags crafted by local artisans. Among the 197 rooms, the author humorously suggests that if you want to "splurge," nothing is more deserving than the King Capri Terrace Suite, featuring a spacious outdoor terrace with a private jacuzzi and a dreamy view of the azure sea.

In addition to hotels, the magazine also lists the top new restaurants and bars deemed to be of exceptional quality and worth trying in 2023. According to author Jovel Chan, recent years have seen a bustling hospitality and culinary scene in Vietnam, particularly in 2023 as the impacts of Covid-19 recede. This year witnessed a significant increase in the number of new hotels and restaurants across the country. The author attributes this growth in part to the presence of the Michelin Guide in Vietnam.
The initial list announcement not only highlights Vietnam's culinary scene gaining international recognition but also serves as a catalyst for opening up new, enticing opportunities for both talented Vietnamese and foreign chefs. This further propels the upscale hospitality and culinary industry in the country. Never before has Vietnam attracted travelers from around the world to visit and experience the finest hotel services and cuisine to this extent.
