In April 1936, after completing the classic film ‘Modern Times’, Charlie Chaplin and actress Paulette Goddard secretly married. The couple embarked on a long honeymoon trip to Indochina. When they visited Hue Ancient Capital, they chose Saigon Morin Hotel. Here, the ‘King of Comedy’ and his wife spent time strolling along the banks of the Huong River, enjoying the tranquil atmosphere of the Ancient Citadel and seeking complete privacy, far from the limelight and the attention of Hollywood media at the time.

On the evening of March 21st, Saigon Morin Hue Co., Ltd. held a ceremony to commemorate the 124th anniversary of the founding of Saigon Morin Hue Hotel. Attending the celebration were members of the Standing Committee of the City Party Committee: Mrs. Nguyen Thi Ai Van, Chairwoman of Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee of Hue City; and Mr. Phan Thien Dinh, Secretary of Thuan Hoa District Party Committee.

On the afternoon of December 18, a National Scientific Conference themed “Promoting the value of Hue traditional music in cultural and tourism development” took place at Saigon Morin Hotel. The conference was jointly organized by Thua Thien Hue Provincial Union of Science and Technology Associations and relevant agencies.
