The Odys Boutique Hotel awaits visitors with a stately yet homely Vietnamese experience |
Located near the Ho Chi Minh City Museum of Fine Arts, The Odys Boutique Hotel was designed by Huong Hoai Nguyen, a well-known artist and interior designer whose touch has graced many Vietnam-inspired architectural constructs.
With the elegant image of the national lotus flower gracing all corners, The Odys emanates the soul of Vietnam and the beauty of Ho Chi Minh City known as “the Pearl of the Far East”.
Entering the doors of The Odys, one will catch a whiff of the aromatic cedar-wood scent blended with a touch of patchouli, embracing The Odys Boutique Hotel’s “lotus pond” with tranquillity and inner peace.
Wooden furniture adorned by elegant blue and noble gold décor reminds guests of the affluent Vietnamese wooden estates of the olden days. At the same time, the highlights are inspired by the colours and lighting of the interiors of old Western houses to give residents a feeling of familiarity away from home.
Well-appointed rooms at The Odys Boutique Hotel offer royal luxury and elegant simplicity |
Each corridor is framed with wooden panels, leading visitors towards their rooms, providing a sense of space yet still oozing comfort and welcoming warmth.
Long lotus-embroidered draped curtains, which are reminiscent of the dust covers used by the old Vietnamese nobility, are hung above each bed.
However, The Odys Boutique Hotel’s journey is not only about beauty. The Odys’ restaurant serves a selection of Asian and European fusion dishes, prepared to the guests’ taste.
Moreover, the walls in each room are decorated with signature French colonial patterned tiles. Since the end of the 19th century, these patterned tiles, along with the French, have been part of the memories of entire Vietnamese generations. It is also a way The Odys Boutique Hotel commemorates Ho Chi MInh City's past, when it was touted as “The Pearl of the Far East”.
