Our Team

This year’s Reunification Day is especially meaningful, marking the 50th anniversary of this historic milestone. Saigon will be more festive than ever — with fireworks, celebrations, and vibrant energy filling every corner of the city.

At Sedona Suites, guests can enjoy it all from a truly unique vantage point. Located high above the streets, the hotel offers a front-row seat to the city’s festivities, paired with an exclusive, thoughtfully curated experience. From panoramic views to refined dining, it’s a special way to celebrate a momentous night.

Fireworks, Reimagined: The Reunited Vietnam Buffet Dinner (April 30)

Nestled on the 28th floor of Sedona Suites, The Straits Kitchen & Bar offers more than just a meal — it’s a dining experience where cuisine meets breathtaking views. Guests are welcomed by sweeping floor-to-ceiling windows that frame the Saigon skyline, setting the stage for an atmosphere that is both luxurious and refined. 

This elevated setting becomes the perfect backdrop for the Reunited Vietnam Buffet Dinner. Signature dishes include Coconut Steamed Black Tiger Prawn with Lemon Pepper Salt, known for its fragrant, flavorful profile; Wok-Tossed New Zealand Mussels with XO Sauce, Bell Pepper, and Onion, delivering bold umami; and the Mediterranean Baked Barramundi with Clams in White Wine Sauce, offering a harmonious balance of freshness and depth. 

As guests enjoy the carefully prepared buffet, the celebration outside comes to life with fireworks and drones creating glowing patterns in the sky. It’s a dynamic experience, where bold flavors and stunning views come together in a night to remember. 

Refined Afternoon Leisure: Saigon Indulgence Afternoon Tea (April 30 – May 4)

From April 30 to May 4, Sedona invites guests to take a break from the city’s festivities with its Saigon Indulgence Afternoon Tea. Set against the backdrop of sweeping skyline views, this elevated afternoon experience features delicately crafted pastries, premium teas, and artful presentations that delight the eye as much as the palate.

Whether you're reconnecting with loved ones or simply treating yourself, the calm sophistication of the afternoon tea service offers a thoughtful counterbalance to the day’s excitement.

Curated Refreshments: Reunification Quenchers (April 30 – May 4)

To honor the spirit of the season, Sedona Suites introduces two exclusive signature beverages crafted especially for the holiday week. The Sweet & Sour Iced Tea, a newly launched non-alcoholic creation served with 2 scoops of ice cream, offers a playful, refreshing twist ideal for families and perfect for cooling off in the holiday heat. In contrast, the Sapporo Draught, served alongside the savory crunch of Har Cheong Gai, brings a bold, satisfying edge to the celebrations. Distinct in character yet united in purpose, both drinks capture the essence of the festivities.

An Extra Indulgence: Tajima Wagyu (Starting April 17) 

Beyond the fireworks and festivities, there is one more reason to linger longer: a culinary experience as luxurious as the view. From April 17, guests can indulge in the Tajima Australian Grainfed Wagyu — a seasonal highlight designed for true connoisseurs.

Renowned for its exceptional marbling, tenderness, and flavor, this Halal-certified, HACCP-approved Wagyu is served two ways: wok-fried into rich, tender cubes, or grilled to perfection and paired with your choice of refined sauces and sides. The Tajima Wagyu offering transforms every meal into a moment of indulgence, elevating the season’s dining experience to new heights. 

A Smart Retreat: Celebration Getaway (April 29 – May 4)

For guests looking to extend their stay or escape the city's bustle, the Celebration Getaway package offers the perfect solution. Running from April 29 to May 4, the package combines modern, spacious suites with panoramic views and seamless hotel-style service.

As the city celebrates below, Sedona invites you to rise above — to enjoy the season not just in comfort, but in style. With service, space, and scenery to match, this is not just a place to stay. It’s a place to feel inspired.
