Azerai La Residence Hue

Set on a two and a half-hectare site with 200 metres of frontage on the fabled Perfume River, Azerai La Residence, Hue places guests in the heart of Hue. The resort's colonial mansion, built in 1930 as part of the French Resident Superieure's residence, showcases the distinctive Streamline Moderne school of Art Deco architecture with its long horizontal lines and nautical flourishes. Two complementary wings, added in 2005, echo Art Deco aesthetics while embracing an expansive tropical garden and a salt-water swimming pool. This historic property has a rich past, having hosted trade fairs, served as a government building, and returned to its roots as a guest house in 1963, with notable guests like Emperor Bao Dai and King Bhumibol Adulyadej.
