The Saigon Morin Hotel hosts conferences, company receptions and weddings for up to 300 guests in its four function rooms, and can lodge a whole delegation in its 180 rooms and suites. The hotel stands at 30 Le Loi Street in the center of Hue, Vietnam, facing the Perfume River and the Truong Tien Bridge.
Seminars and company events
The hotel sells meetings, conferences and corporate receptions. A standard conference setup includes mineral water for each participant, paper and pens, a podium and microphone, a sound system, flower decoration, a welcome sign board and free Wi-Fi. A Conference Concierge looks after the arrangements on the day, which helps when an organizer runs a program from abroad. Tea breaks, mid-day snacks, lunches and dinners are served on request. For groups attending a regional meeting or an incentive trip, the location helps: the Imperial City is about 15 minutes away and Dong Ba Market about 5 minutes away, so visits fit between working sessions.
Weddings and receptions
The hotel organizes weddings with an experienced consultant who helps plan the day. Couples can choose among several decoration styles and color schemes. The same function rooms are used for receptions and other private celebrations, with room for up to 300 guests.
Rooms and capacities
The Saigon Morin has four function rooms, the largest holding up to 300 people. The hotel does not publish the names or layouts of each room online; seating plans are supplied on request, and the meeting team can match a room to the format, from a classroom session to a banquet.
Accommodation
The hotel has 180 rooms and suites, enough to keep a large group under one roof. Guest rooms have parquet floors and marble bathrooms. The Charlie Chaplin Suite recalls the actor's honeymoon at the hotel.
Catering
Catering for meetings and receptions comes from the hotel kitchen, with tea breaks and meals arranged on request. The hotel also runs a fine dining offer for guests.
History and setting
The hotel opened in 1901 and is described by its owners as the first hotel in Central Vietnam. The building is in French colonial style, and old photographs of Hue from the early 20th century are on display for guests. Charlie Chaplin spent his honeymoon here, and the hotel has long been one of the landmarks of the former imperial capital. Its riverfront address on Le Loi Street puts the Perfume River and the Truong Tien Bridge directly in front of the entrance.
Getting there
Hue railway station is about 10 minutes from the hotel and Phu Bai International Airport about 30 minutes. The Imperial City is about 15 minutes away, which makes it easy to add a guided visit to a meeting program.
