FAQ for travel professionals

Boutique luxury (e.g., Capella Hanoi, Mia Saigon) sells best when the brief emphasizes privacy, design, and curated atmosphere. Large five-star brands (e.g., InterContinental, New World) fit executive travel and incentive flows where consistency, facilities, and scale matter.

For incentive-friendly city bases, prioritize hotels with dependable inventory and event rhythm (commonly InterContinental Saigon, New World Saigon, Landmark72), then build the program around meeting/gala modules and brand-protected execution. See Vietnam MICE & Incentive.

Yes. We coordinate VIP handling, rooming-list alignment, transfer precision, and brand-protected touchpoints depending on your program needs. Reference our standards at Vietnam DMC Operations and our partner workflow at How We Work With Partners.

Sell with a clear “reason to stay”: heritage narrative, skyline prestige, river calm, design signature, or incentive readiness. Then pair it with a signature experience (fine dining, curated city access, wellness, or cultural storytelling). This improves conversion and reduces preference changes later.
