HO CHI MINH CITY, Vietnam, Oct. 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Mia Saigon has been awarded One MICHELIN Key in the 2026 MICHELIN Guide hotel selection, joining 21 hotels in Vietnam, and only three in Ho Chi Minh City, to hold the distinction.
Introduced in 2024 as the hotel equivalent of the MICHELIN Star, the Key is awarded after anonymous stays by MICHELIN Inspectors, who assess architecture and interior design, the quality and consistency of service, personality and character, value, and a hotel's contribution to its setting. Hotels cannot apply for it. Worldwide, 2,832 hotels now hold a Key.
The recognition stands out in a selection led largely by international hotel groups. Mia Saigon is owned, led and run by Vietnamese people, and forms part of Mia Luxury Collection, a homegrown group of boutique properties.
"Mia Saigon was created as a home by the river, where every guest is known by name," said Ms Trinh Tran, Hotel Manager. "As a Vietnamese team, we bring the warmth of our hospitality to every stay. We are honoured that the MICHELIN Guide has recognised that spirit."
Guests may arrive by the hotel's shuttle boat along the Saigon River rather than by road. What greets them is a 53-room house drawing on Indochine design and the romance of Saigon's Art Deco era, where rooms and suites take their palettes from four gemstones – Citrine, Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald – and each opens onto a private balcony above the river or the gardens.
Art gives the house its character. Vietnamese fine art is placed throughout, from the riverside lobby to the rooftop, among it works by Bùi Xuân Phái and Đỗ Xuân Doãn, Chu Đậu pottery and ancient ceramics, the oldest some 2,000 years old. Each guest floor then carries a collection of its own, drawn from the everyday objects of 20th-century Vietnam: hand-painted propaganda posters that never went to print, book covers, stamps, matchbox art, first day covers and magazines. Guests can follow the whole collection on the hotel's own art tour.
The house gathers around The Living Room, known for its afternoon high tea, while Kitchen by the River serves refined Vietnamese and international cuisine and The Muse pours artisanal cocktails and tapas. Ô Spa, a riverside pool and lush gardens complete the retreat.

Mia Saigon Awarded One MICHELIN Key as Vietnamese-Run Hospitality Joins the Global Stage
Mia Saigon Awarded One MICHELIN Key as Vietnamese-Run Hospitality Joins the Global Stage
Built on deep consumer insights, Tineco's generation-by-generation approach turns everyday cleaning challenges into practical solutions that make household cleaning easier and less time-consuming.
SEATTLE, Oct. 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Tineco, recognized as the world's No. 1 household wet & dry vacuum cleaner brand by global retail sales volume for four consecutive years*, continues to advance the floor washer category through an innovation strategy rooted in understanding what consumers truly need. From tackling everyday spills and reaching beneath furniture to reducing the hassle of appliance maintenance, Tineco develops technologies designed around the realities of daily life. By making routine cleaning simpler and less demanding, the company aims to give consumers more time and energy for the people, activities and moments that matter most.
Since pioneering the smart floor washer category in 2020 with the launch of the FLOOR ONE S1, Tineco has worked to simplify everyday cleaning, starting with a familiar frustration: needing separate appliances to vacuum and mop. By combining both tasks with a fresh-water self-cleaning system, Tineco helped reduce the number of steps involved in cleaning floors and maintaining the appliance.
This focus on everyday needs continues to shape Tineco's philosophy of "Every Generation, a New Definition." At the center of this philosophy is "technology compounding", an approach in which each generation builds on previous innovations to address evolving household cleaning needs.
- Generation 1: For everyday spills and dirt along baseboards, iLoop™ Smart Sensor technology, MHCBS™ Technology and triple-sided edge cleaning help adjust cleaning performance, wash floors with fresh water and reach dirt along edges, helping consumers achieve a thorough clean with less guesswork and fewer missed spots.
- Generation 2: Cleaning beneath furniture or manoeuvring around a room can require extra effort. AI SmoothDrive Technology and 180° lay-flat design help the floor washer move more smoothly and reach beneath beds, sofas and other low furniture with less bending, lifting or rearranging, so hard-to-reach areas are easier to keep clean.
- Generation 3: For pet owners and households dealing with long hair, removing tangled hair from a brush can add another chore. Upgraded pouch-cell batteries support cleaning performance, while DualBlock Anti-Tangle Design helps reduce hair wrap around the brush, making maintenance easier and reducing the time spent removing tangles by hand.
- Generation 4: Refilling clean water and emptying dirty water can interrupt even a quick cleaning session. Next-generation auto-refill and auto-drain technology automates these tasks, helping consumers complete cleaning with fewer interruptions and less hands-on maintenance.
Together, these improvements make daily cleaning less demanding, reducing the time and effort spent on household chores so consumers can focus on the people and activities they enjoy.
Behind these everyday improvements is Tineco's continued investment in product development, testing and quality. The company has evolved from a category pioneer into an industry standard setter, holding one of the industry's earliest CNAS-accredited laboratory certifications, obtaining quality certifications from multiple internationally recognized organizations and participating in the development of relevant IEC and ASTM international standards.
Today, Tineco has received more than 200 awards worldwide across product innovation, industrial design and brand value. As the floor washer category continues to evolve, Tineco remains focused on turning everyday consumer needs into meaningful innovation. By continually rethinking how floors are cleaned and how cleaning equipment is maintained, the company aims to make household chores feel less like a burden and give people more freedom to enjoy their time at home.
