Azerai Can Tho appoints Nicolas Pillet as GM

Azerai Can Tho in the Mekong Delta has appointed Nicolas Pillet as its new General Manager, as the resort announced plans to reopen on November 12, following the easing of COVID-related restrictions in Vietnam.

Pillet, a French national, brings a strong culinary background, having studied cuisine as part of his hospitality education in Nantes. He has worked with several internationally recognised brands in his career, including the Eastern & Oriental Express, where he was the GM of Southeast Asia’s only luxury sleeper train, and most recently as the GM of Amanoi, the Aman property in Ninh Thuan, Vietnam.

“Nicolas is a hands-on general manager who works closely with his team to ensure that service is maintained at the highest possible standards. He enjoys exploring ways to integrate the local community into the resort by creating new experiences that exceed guests’ expectations,” said Henry Gray, Executive Director, Azerai Resorts.
