Inspired by the vibrant red of the flamboyant flower—the iconic symbol of the "Port City"—The Crimson is the ideal destination for those passionate about exploring local culture and cuisine. Here, every interior space is crafted as a storyteller, offering guests an experience of profound depth and emotion. The space seamlessly blends modern elements with shimmering metallic details, reminiscent of the era when mechanical engineering first arrived at the port of Hai Phong.
A direct view of the reception desks showcases the meticulous craftsmanship. Three monolithic metal counters creating a visual effect that recalls the metal ships forming old Hai Phong. Above, three large circular recessed ceiling lights finished in gold gleam like proud industrial gears illuminating the space. We have always envisioned a Hai Phong developing with the same opulence that boomed in America during the Roaring Twenties, seasoned with a contemporary twist.
Main hallway demonstrating a modern and airy architectural approach. The most captivating feature is the row of porthole-inspired circular windows, radiating a mystical blue light that mirrors the long maritime history of the trading port.
A detailed look at the maritime wall highlights five ship portholes emitting a magical neon blue glow. These circular metallic frames are mounted along a deep teal wooden backdrop, creating a powerful contrast with the light-colored travertine stone flooring below. This unique architectural detail serves as a direct tribute to Hai Phong's historical roots in ocean commerce.
The linearly patterned stone flooring stretches forward, creating a rhythmic movement that seamlessly guides guests along. This classic floor treatment technique is still as effective as ever. When we look closely, the brick layout even resembles an oar.
Venturing deeper into the lounge and bar area, the atmosphere at The Crimson becomes warm and romantic under soft pendant lighting. Plush velvet armchairs in deep purple and black are neatly arranged beside artistic glass partitions adorned with vibrant tropical patterns. This serves as an ideal sanctuary for guests to unwind, socialize, and immerse themselves in the contemporary vibe. The feature wall, stylized from flamboyant flowers, serves as a signature sense of place and an open invitation to explore the port city.
Within the hotel, there is a dedicated space to showcase exquisite works of art.
Suite entrance opens into an intimate residential hallway that immediately establishes the design narrative. On the right, a deep teal feature wall displays an embossed, stylized relief map of the historic port city, celebrating its local heritage. Warm wooden flooring and textured wallpaper flank the path, leading the eye toward the sun-drenched living quarters visible in the distance.
A standout feature within the living space is the bespoke, freestanding mini-bar cabinet, tailored like a vintage luxury travel trunk. Crafted with curved wooden doors and lined with metallic brass accents, its illuminated interior houses fine glassware and custom amenities. Positioned elegantly against a neutral textured wall, it stands next to a rich blue grid-paneled partition, adding an authentic touch of old-world glamour.
The bedroom is a masterclass in tailored luxury and comfort. A plush daybed sofa and a sleek marble-topped coffee table create a private lounge corner right beside the bed. The headboard wall blends various materials of contrasting gloss levels, all united by a single, trendy deep teal hue. The pendant lights hanging beside the bed also showcase mechanical design characteristics.
