DRAGON-INSPIRED HOTEL CONVEYS
vietnamese hospitality
An international Building Team unites to create
Vietnam’s first JW Marriott luxury property.
BY RAISSA ROCHA, ASSOCIATE EDITOR
T
he JW Marriott brand holds high standards for its luxury hotels, and the new property in Hanoi, Vietnam, is no different.
The 74,384-sm building conveys a distinct Vietnamese flair,
with its stylized dragon form inspired by local mythology and
the country’s coastline.
Sited next to the Vietnam National Convention Center and the
Hanoi Museum, convenient to nearby tourist attractions, the JW
Marriott Hanoi greets visitors with a landscaped, semi-circular
courtyard. Below this raised entry plaza lies a podium level housing two ballrooms; meeting facilities; dining, bar, and lounge areas;
three levels of indoor parking; and back-of-house support functions.
Atop the podium, the hotel includes a grand lobby, 450 guest rooms
and suites, an executive lounge, a glass-enclosed rooftop swimming
pool, and a fitness center.
The hotel is built for ADA compliance, even though no such laws
currently exist in Vietnam. Accommodations include wider entry
corridors in several rooms and special considerations in bathroom
facilities. Elegant finishes are a priority throughout.

Indeed, this Building Team had to navigate a thicket of design requirements, including directives from owner Bitexco Group, Marriott International, and the neighboring Vietnam National Convention Center.
Marriott’s in-house architectural group—responsible for overseeing
design of all the brand’s hotels and resorts—was brought in at several
stages for input and approval, but adherence to their standards proved
difficult when financial problems led to a two-year delay. Marriott criteria
had changed in the interim, and new design styles caused previously
selected finishes to be rejected. In addition, the clients decided to
reorganize the site to make room for two villas, scrapping plans to build
tennis courts and install a significant amount of landscaping.
Even basic communication was a concern, with Building Team
members and consultants such as Turner Construction, Carlos Zapata
Studio, Leslie E. Robertson Associates, and DSA Engineering scattered
among offices in nine different countries. The firms decided early on
that English would be the standard for all communications.
Vietnam is still a developing country in many aspects, so there was

The JW Marriott Hanoi features an unusual
cantilevered design, with a curled shape
inspired by the form of a dragon. The arms
of the hotel shelter a raised entry plaza.

The structure is constructed on a podium, with ballrooms and restaurants on the lowest floor enjoying riverfront views.
A curtain wall system at the podium level brings natural light into the
hotel’s café. Elegant finishes were a priority for the owner.
concern about the availability of skilled workers. Safety was also paramount, with Turner implementing weekly training sessions and audits
to reinforce this priority for crews. Figuring out the best way to deploy
teams—and to keep employees reporting through delays and cashflow difficulties—made construction management even more complex.
The Building Team brought in international consultants and
engineers when expertise was needed on elements unfamiliar to
Vietnamese partner firms, such as the cantilevered design and
structural steel construction. Sika, which supplied the waterproofing
system for the podium roof, sent employees to train contractors onsite to prevent leaks that could threaten the ballrooms below.
The way the JW Marriott Hanoi came together in spite of the
obstacles and difficulty level impressed the Building Team Awards
judges. Says juror Matthew Dumich, AIA, of Adrian Smith + Gordon
Gill Architecture: “It’s as if someone said, ‘No one knows how to do
any of this stuff. Let’s do it anyway.’ And it works.” +
