Rising 65 floors above Lieu Giai Street in Hanoi's Ba Dinh district, the Lotte Center's twin-blade glass tower — designed by Cambodian-born, US-trained architect Soo-Gin Lim of Korean firm Heerim Architects & Planners and completed in 2014 — gave the Vietnamese capital its most conspicuous vertical gesture since reunification. Lotte Hotel Hanoi is fitted into the upper floors of this mixed-use complex, which stacks retail, office, serviced apartments, and hotel within a single curtain-walled form whose deep central ridge splits the facade like a folded sheet of glass, the effect closer to corporate Seoul than colonial Hanoi. The tower's podium, visible in the images blazing with LED illumination at night, grounds the composition in a broad retail plinth that anchors the building to street level while the hotel floors ascend well above the smog line. The 318 rooms divide between two distinct registers. Standard rooms favor blonde wood paneling, pale patterned carpets, and sage-green task chairs against floor-to-ceiling glazing — a measured, internationally legible language of corporate calm. The suites shift register entirely: white Carrara-style marble floors, dark lacquered furniture with brass fittings, and diamond-quilted leather headboards give them a more formal, East Asian palatial character. At the summit, the Sky Bar trades on herringbone timber floors, crimson velvet armchairs, and double-height walnut screens pierced in traditional lattice patterns — a room that earns its altitude. The outdoor pool terrace, set into the podium's upper deck beside a decorative mosaic wall, catches afternoon light against the blue-glass curtain wall directly above.
