Singapore-based global hospitality company The Ascott has grown its portfolio and accelerated its Vietnam expansion with nine signings in the country during the first half of the year.

It inked management agreements for properties totalling more than 3,200 units in 1H2026. That is the company’s fastest pace of growth in Vietnam to date, said Ascott, which is wholly owned by CapitaLand Investment, in a July 30 news release.

The newly signed properties will open progressively from 2028.

The signings expand the Vietnam portfolio by more than 30% to about 12,000 units across 42 operational and pipeline properties in 14 cities.

The latest announcement comes as Vietnam cements its position as one of Asia’s most dynamic travel markets, Ascott noted.

Of the nine signings, four will deepen the hospitality operator’s presence in Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, and Hai Phong — where corporate and bleisure travel are driving demand for extended stays.

Meanwhile, three are in Phu Quoc island, where the Apec Economic Leaders’ Meeting will be held in November 2027. And one new property is in Da Nang, a popular beach destination. Ascott is also entering Quy Nhon, an emerging central coast city.

Kevin Goh, CEO of Ascott, said hospitality demand is rising in Vietnam, and the flex-hybrid model gives Ascott the versatility to capture it through asset-light growth.

“Property owners value that our platform can serve both long and short stays, and operate formats as diverse as serviced residences, hotels, resorts and social living properties,” Goh added.

In terms of the company’s brands, the signings mark the Vietnam debut of The Crest Collection, Ascott’s heritage-focused luxury brand, with one property each in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City.

The other signings span the Ascott, Citadines, lyf, Oakwood, Somerset, and Harris brands.

Serena Lim, chief growth officer at the company, noted that Vietnam’s hotel development pipeline is moving quickly into construction, particularly in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, and owners are selecting their operating partners now.

With active discussions underway in several markets, Ascott expects the signing momentum to continue into the second half of the year, she said.

David Cumming, regional general manager for Indochina at the company, highlighted that Vietnam is pursuing an ambitious growth agenda. With a strong pipeline ahead, Ascott is now focusing on delivery, opening on schedule, and running properties that perform, he continued.

这些签约使雅诗阁越南投资组合扩大逾30%，达到约12,000个单位，覆盖14个城市的42个在营及在建项目。

雅诗阁指出，最新公布恰逢越南巩固其作为亚洲最具活力旅游市场之一的地位。

九项签约中，四项将深化该酒店运营商在河内、胡志明市与海防的布局——当地企业差旅与商务休闲（bleisure）需求正推动长住需求。

同时，三项位于富国岛，该地定于2027年11月举办亚太经合组织（Apec）领导人会议。另有一处新物业位于热门海滨目的地岘港。雅诗阁亦首次进入中部沿海新兴城市归仁（Quy Nhon）。

雅诗阁首席执行官吴允中（Kevin Goh）表示，越南酒店需求正在上升，而灵活混合模式使雅诗阁得以通过轻资产增长把握机遇。

吴允中补充道：“业主看重我们的平台既能服务长住与短住，也能运营服务式公寓、酒店、度假村及社交居住物业等多元业态。”

其余签约涵盖Ascott、Citadines、lyf、Oakwood、Somerset及Harris等品牌。

公司首席增长官Serena Lim指出，越南酒店开发项目管线正快速进入施工阶段，尤其在河内与胡志明市，业主现正选择运营合作伙伴。

她表示，鉴于多个市场正进行积极洽谈，雅诗阁预期签约势头将延续至下半年。

公司印度支那区域总经理David Cumming强调，越南正推进雄心勃勃的增长议程。面对强劲管线，雅诗阁目前聚焦交付、按时开业，以及运营表现良好的物业。
