“It is an honor to be here with Phu Quoc Investment & Development JSC and the CEO Group to present this exceptional new hotel to the world,” Olivier Berrivin, Best Western Hotels & Resorts’ Managing Director of International Operations – Asia, told attendees at the opening ceremony. “At Best Western, we are always seeking strong and professional partners to work with, and CEO Group has shown its skill and vision by creating Best Western Premier Sonasea Phu Quoc. I have no doubt that this remarkable new resort will delight our guests and enhance the entire destination.

The opening of Best Western Premier Sonasea Phu Quoc represents an important phase of Best Western’s Asian expansion strategy. The company has identified Vietnam as one of its key target markets, due to the country’s buoyant economy, surging visitor numbers and tourism-friendly government policies. In recent months, Best Western has signed a series of impressive new hotel projects in Cam Ranh, Ha Long, Vung Tau and Quang Binh, most of which feature more than 500 keys.

In the future, Best Western will continue to seek opportunities to bring its timeless values of world-class hospitality and unsurpassed service to even more parts of Vietnam, further enhancing the country’s thriving tourism industry.
