La Résidence
Location: Hue, in central Vietnam, the country's former imperial capital, known for its ornately carved buildings and monuments
Andrew Harper's take: "Anyone making the journey to Vietnam and passing on Hue would be making a serious mistake. La Résidence (view slideshow) is a superb small hotel housed within the former governor's mansion. Set beside the Perfume River, it is a handsome white structure, with two new wings embracing a central garden and exceptionally inviting pool. The interior of the hotel has been refurbished in an Art Deco style, and many of the 122 rooms and suites offer fine views of the river. After a day spent hiking up, down, and over ancient tombs and temples, it's a joy to sink into the cool waters of the hotel's gorgeous pool."
