Hilton Worldwide has signed a management agreement with Hoan Kiem Tourism and Trading Company Limited to introduce the first Hilton Garden Inn and Hilton Worldwide’s second property in Vietnam. Scheduled to open in the second half of 2012, the 86-room Hilton Garden Inn Hanoi marks the debut of Hilton Garden Inn, Hilton Worldwide’s mid-priced brand, in Southeast Asia. Located at the intersection of Tran Hung Dao and Phan Chu Trinh avenues, Hilton Garden Inn Hanoi is in the French Quarter of Hanoi. The 11-storey Hilton Garden Inn Hanoi will have 86 bedrooms, an all-day dining restaurant and a lounge bar, a 100-square-metre meeting room, a spa and on-site car parking facilities. Hilton Garden Inn Hanoi is currently present in several countries in North America and Europe, and made its Asian debut in 2009 with the opening of the Hilton Garden Inn New Delhi. Hilton Worldwide currently manages one other hotel, the Hilton Hanoi Opera, in Vietnam.

Bintan To Build Private Airport Return to Headlines

Bintan Resorts, the leisure complex on the Indonesian island of Bintan, has started work on a new private airport. The new Bintan Resorts International Airport is located in Busung, Kuala Lobam, which is 30 minutes’ drive from the beach resort. The airport is being developed at a cost of S$100 million (US$79 million) and will feature a single terminal building, a 2.5-kilometre runway and a control tower. The new airport is envisaged to start operations by 2015. According to Bintan Resorts, the airport will serve mainly domestic routes, charter flights from regional cities and private jets. As the bulk of visitors to Bintan Resorts currently come from Singapore via a ferry link, the new airport is expected to broaden the resort’s appeal.
