(KPL) A new Kempinski-branded hotel and mixed-use complex has broken ground in Vientiane, marking one of the capital’s notable foreign-backed property developments.

Haiwan Real Estate is partnering with the Vientiane Capital Administration on the project, which covers 10,288 sq m in Nong Duang Neua.

The first phase — a 13-storey apartment building with 540 units valued at USD 23 million — is scheduled for completion in 2026, with occupancy expected by March 2027.

Phase two will add a 160-room Kempinski Hotel, 200 apartments, and a shopping centre worth USD 25 million, planned to open in February 2029.

Officials say the project is expected to boost tourism, create jobs and strengthen Vientiane’s urban development.
