Fusion has announced the opening of Grand Royal Riverside Hue, part of the Fusion Collection, a new luxury hotel located in the heart of Hue City in central Vietnam. The opening marks another milestone in Fusion’s continued expansion into some of the region’s most alluring destinations.
Set on the southern bank of the Huong River, adjacent to the iconic Truong Tien Bridge, the hotel opened its doors to guests on March 14, boasting a prime riverside location within the UNESCO-recognized heritage landscape of Vietnam’s former imperial capital.
Blending cultural heritage with contemporary hospitality, Grand Royal Riverside Hue delivers an immersive guest experience rooted in history, place and modern comfort. Hue is internationally recognized for its historic monuments, scenic river landscapes and enduring cultural significance.
Located at No. 02 Hung Vuong Street, the property features two towers comprising 161 guestrooms. Inspired by the Huong River, a defining symbol of Hue’s culture and history, the hotel is crafted around the concept “A Tale of Two Times,” blending the elegance of the past with the vibrancy of the present. The river serves as a picturesque backdrop and the unifying narrative thread guiding both the hotel’s design and the overall guest journey.
Architecturally inspired by Indochine elegance, the hotel reflects a period of cultural exchange that shaped Hue’s distinctive urban identity. Interiors are layered with natural wood and locally inspired materials, softened by jade-toned hues that evoke calm and balance. The result is a serene and elegant retreat that pays homage to the former imperial capital, where refined design details seamlessly bridge heritage character and contemporary comfort.
The hotel’s Jade & Ginger Restaurant serves a daily breakfast buffet and all-day dining, featuring authentic Vietnamese flavors such as bun bo Hue, pho and banh mi, alongside signature Hue specialties and selected European dishes. Complementing the dining experience, The Amber Lounge serves as the hotel’s elegant lobby lounge and social hub. By day, it offers artisanal teas, freshly brewed coffee and light refreshments in a tranquil setting, while evenings see the space transition into a refined bar presenting curated wines, signature cocktails and premium spirits.
In keeping with Fusion’s strong brand emphasis on health and wellness, the hotel features Sả Spa (lemongrass) & Wellness, with four modern treatment rooms staffed by experienced therapists who draw on locally sourced herbs and natural essential oils. The spa also integrates a fitness center, steam room and skincare and rejuvenation services, delivering a holistic relaxation experience.
The property further includes meeting and event facilities suitable for corporate functions and MICE activities, with a capacity of up to 370 guests. A variety of flexible spaces, including co-working areas, lounges, reception spaces and elevated venues, cater to the diverse needs of leisure travelers, business guests and event organizers alike.
