Announced in New York last week, the results of Conde Nast Traveler's 27th annual survey placed five hotels and resorts in Viet Nam on the list of top hospitality properties.

The Sofitel Legend Metropole Hanoi climbed five spots from last year's No 5 position to stand supreme as the hotel in the Southeast Asia most favored by the magazine's readers.

La Residence Hotel & Spa in Hue also earned a spot on the list for the first time, placing No 19, besting the likes of such storied brands as the Four Seasons and the only other Viet Nam hotel on the list, the Park Hyatt Saigon (No 21).

The Nam Hai placed among the top 10 resorts in all of Asia for the second year in a row. The magazine praised the hotel for encouraging "a Zen-like serenity".
