La Residence Hotel & Spa - one of T&L 50 romantic escapes!

laresidencehue.jpgHere is one of the hotels in Hue, Vietnam that  has been chosen by Travel & Leisure magazine to be one of its 50 romantic escapes (February 2006)! This is what they say “In this former imperial capital, traffic still means three bicycles side by side, or a huddle of motorboats plying the languid Perfume River. Hire one of the latter to take you to the secluded tombs of the Nguyen Dynasty kings, then drift back to the 122-room, La Residence Hotel & Spa. Each lamp, tile mosaic, and settee was meticulously crafted to flatter the original Art Deco design of the hotel’s main building. T&L tip: Through the arc of louvered windows in La Suite du Resident, you can gaze across the infinity pool and river to the 19-th century Citadel�.
