Dolce by Wyndham Hanoi Golden Lake
● Giang Vo, Ba Đinh, Hanoi
Not to be confused with similar famed architectural works in Dubai, the Dolce by Wyndham Hanoi Golden Lake is a hotel with an exterior made of “gilded bricks” and the largest amount of interior furnishings with golden dishes and drinks in the world.
This luxury apartment and hotel complex is designed in a neoclassical style combined with modern, sophisticated details and large glass panels that will surely impress guests.
The hotel is plated in gold from the inside and out, a sure sight to dazzle and disprove “all that glitters isn’t gold”...because in this case it is. There are 25 floors that hold 400 rooms, as well as a gold plated infinity pool that guests can use to relax and splash around. The decadence of it does not stop there, as everything from cutlery, frames, sinks and bathtubs to swimming pools are gilded. Even in the hotel's cuisine, there are many dishes incorporating infused gold or as a topping.
