Arts of Design and Styling at Hôtel des Arts Saigon

When the sky begins to darken to the starless black of Saigon evenings, the city begins its all-night shine. This is when you might notice the entrance to Hôtel des Arts Saigon, MGallery Collection. During the day the hotel sits a little back from the street, visibly beautiful but not advertising its presence, However, during the night this 5-star boutique hotel glows with a warm elegance that stands in contrast to the neon spotlights and fluorescent chaos of some of the other high-rise buildings in Saigon.

Once you notice the Hôtel des Arts Saigon you will have a hard time looking away. Like a glamorous woman dressed in immaculately tailored clothing the Hôtel des Arts Saigon draws admirers with its aristocratic elegance and refinement.

The entrance to the hotel has the sculpted lines of a vintage pagoda but one that has been swept into the 21st century with luxurious touches like its creamy stone facade and towering amber-tinted windows. At night the smoked-glass allows passersby a glimpse of life inside the hotel while maintaining the allure of confidentiality that attracts VIP guests.

What is inside and more importantly who is inside? You might ask as you peek through the carved wooden doors.

Doormen handsomely dressed in muted tunics will usher you in for your first view of the decadent design scheme. Bordeaux velvet, crystal lamps and curvy wingback chairs will give you a taste of the luxury that abounds throughout the hotel while precious art and sculptures complete the dialogue between the hotel’s vintage Indochine style and contemporary French splendour.

A stone’s throw from some of Ho Chi Minh City’s iconic architectural gems, Notre Dame Cathedral of Saigon and the Central Post Office, Hôtel des Arts Saigon is also a design masterpiece in itself, which has been recognized with awards such as “ Best Luxury Architecture Design Hotel in Southeast Asia” by World Luxury Hotel Awards in 2017, “Luxury Best Traditional Hotel 2018” by Luxury Travel Guide Awards 2018, The “Lifestyle Hotel Of The Year” in Best of the Best Awards 2018 by Robb Report.

Australian-born, Bangkok-based architect, Scott Whittaker, is the mastermind behind the hotel’s design. He was inspired by the idea of the introspective feminine beauty that was present throughout the private curated collection of the owner of Hôtel des Arts Saigon. These personally collected works are visible throughout the hotel.

From modern representations of the female form to classical portraits of Vietnamese women painted with the technical excellence of the Dutch portrait masters, many of these works are by the “who’s who” of the international art world. The priceless collection whispers to the viewer, crafting a tale that runs throughout the hotel. Who are the women in the paintings? What are their stories? Staying at Hôtel des Arts Saigon feels like a vacation getaway to a private art museum combined with all the comfort and well-being expected of a 5-star, Accor-group hotel.
