According to Garth Simmons, chief executive officer of Accor's premium, midscale, and economy divisions in Asia, District 7 is a vibrant neighborhood in the largest city in Vietnam and brimming with opportunities for commercial and residential developments.

The hotel is strategically located close to the SECC and right in the center of the local community with new residential buildings and a shopping center.

"We believe the Novotel Living brand is an ideal choice for this property as it allows guests to enjoy all the conveniences Novotel Living has to offer for both long- and short-stay guests visiting this area of the city," Simmons said.

Surrounded by shopping malls, restaurants, international schools, and hospitals, and only 20 minutes by car from the city center, this residence is ideal for corporate travelers and families on short or extended sojourns in this dynamic commercial hub.

Novotel Living Saigon South boasts a collection of 175 contemporary studio rooms and one- and two-bedroom apartments.

The offerings include a spacious all-day dining restaurant, a sunlit fitness center complete with sauna and steam bath facilities and convenient shared laundry amenities.

These features ensure that guests can relish the homely comforts essential for an extended stay experience.

The studios offer additional space to unwind, a microwave oven and cooking appliances, while the spacious apartments promise a home-away-from-home experience, with a spacious living room, a full kitchen, and even an en-suite bathroom in the two-bedroom apartments.

Throughout their stay, guests can keep up their fitness routine in the 24-hour gym or feel rejuvenated in the steam room and sauna. An onsite laundry, combined with ironing facilities in every room, will ensure that travelers can look their best and feel fresh for every meeting.

The hotel's all-day dining restaurant, Food Exchange, offers a selection of international, pan-Asian and Vietnamese dishes. Set on the second floor with panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows, this is a bright and inviting setting for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

For corporate guests, Novotel Living Saigon South features a choice of three function rooms. The 50-square-meter boardroom, 30-square-meter Phu Thuan Room, and 18-square-meter Him Lam Room are filled with sunlight and equipment for meetings.

Chris Yang, general manager of Novotel Living Saigon South, said Accor is delighted to introduce Novotel Living Saigon South, which brings the Novotel Living concept to Vietnam for the first time.

Suited to the new generation of "bleisure" travelers and family-focused executives who like to balance their professional and personal lives, Novotel Living lets guests work to their own schedule.

"Our prime location next to SECC will ensure complete convenience during busy days, and our lively social ambiance will provide a great atmosphere to unwind."
