Hilton Worldwide has reached an agreement with a local developer to open a new Hilton property in Da Nang City, Vietnam.

The 226-key Hilton Da Nang, which will be part of a large-scale mixed-use complex, will be the country's second Hilton, after the Hilton Hanoi Opera.

The hotel will feature three food and beverage outlets and also six meeting rooms, with a 450-square-metre ballroom.

The Hilton Da Nang is already undergoing construction and is slated to open in 2013.
