Introducing Hotel Grand Saigon
1. The History of Hotel Grand Saigon
Established in 1930 under the helm of its first director, De Lachevrotière, the Hotel Grand Saigon boasted 68 exquisite rooms at 8 Rue Catinat (now Dong Khoi Street). Shortly after, it changed hands to the French-Corsican Patrice Luciani, marking a new era of success and acclaim as one of Saigon's premier establishments.
Notable among its features are the rooftop cafes, catering to various events and gatherings of the city. In 1939, the hotel changed ownership once more, falling under the stewardship of Antoine Giorgetti. Despite wartime adversities, it continued to offer exclusive accommodations, epitomizing luxury living amidst turmoil.
Especially notable in 1958, the hotel was then known as 'Saigon Grand Inn' in Vietnamese, retaining its name until 1975 when it became Dong Khoi Hotel. It wasn't until 1997 that the hotel underwent renovations and upgrades to become the luxurious 5-star establishment it is today.
