Melia Vinpearl Hue

I’d found this hotel on a previous visit to Hue (you can’t really miss it), but I had been staying at another five star just down the road. I always said, if I ever came back, I would stay here instead, and I did just that. It’s an impressive building both inside as out. I had booked a premium room with views, and boy were the views amazing. I ended up on 32nd floor, which is their highest floor for accommodation. It’s also the same floor as their club/executive lounge called ‘The Level’ which we had included with our room. That too was amazing. In the afternoon (15:30 to 18:30) they do a lovely selection of nibbles/canapés and free drinks. The drinks included red and white wine, spirits, beer and even a few cocktails. It was absolutely worth every penny. The Sky bar is phenomenal. Brilliant cocktails (including a 2-4-1 happy hour til 7pm). Lovely staff and amazing views. The pool is great. Heated to a nice temperature. Technically an inside pool, but they have big windows that they can open, although they were closed all the time I was here. Be nice to have those open.The rooms were well laid out with every amenity you could possibly need. Housekeeping did a great job of keeping everything spotless, thank you.Breakfast was the only slight disappointment. There was lots of food on offer, but I was surprised not to see things like eggs Benedict for such a high-end hotel. They also seemed very understaffed with tables left uncleared.By far best hotel in Hue though
