A new hotel where more than 40 winks may be in order

Wink: to close and open one eye quickly, typically to indicate that something is a joke or a secret or as a signal of affection or greeting.

Wink is also the name of a new hotel brand in Vietnam that is taking a cheeky and fun approach to the travel business.

Wink Hotels this week unveiled is second property: Wink Hotel Danang Centre located in Da Nang City’s prime downtown entertainment district.

The hotel is described as being designed for "the young and young-at-heart".

The 244-room hotel offers four categories of room: standard, twin, family and a two-bedroom suite, all featuring power showers, quality bed linens and locally sourced scented amenities, along with smart televisions that connect wirelessly to devices.

Floor-to-ceiling windows offer views of Da Nang’s city skyline adorned with black-out blinds featuring a painting by Saigon-based artist Richie Fawcett.

Unusually, guests will check on level 19 in the Wink Space, which also features the 24/7 Wink Bar and stock up on snacks, drinks and supplies at convenience store prices in the Grab & Go area.

There is a co-working space on the 20th floor, as well as gym and a laundromat.

On the ground floor is the brand’s first partnership with Brothers Men’s Boutique Salon, offering pampering and grooming services for men, and its own Phiêu Bar + Brew, serving juices and smoothies by day, and craft and draught beer as well as cocktails by night.

The hotel’s Wink Guides, a team of "local guest experience curators", will be on hand 24-hours a day through WhatsApp, Zalo or in person to offer their recommendations of the city's highlights.



The new property follows the Wink Hotel Saigon Centre, which opened in March 2021.

A third Wink Hotel, Wink Hotel Danang Riverside, will open in 2023, featuring 357 rooms, three-floors of retail outlets, bars, coffee shops and restaurants, and a rooftop swimming pool and bar.

Wink also has plans in the pipeline for future hotels in Tuy Hoa, Can Tho, Hanoi, Hai Phong and Binh Duong.
