Sun Red River Building

Sun Red River Building is one of Hanoi’s longest-established Grade A office developments, strategically located at 23 Phan Chu Trinh Street, Cua Nam Ward, Hanoi (formerly Hoan Kiem District), in the heart of the capital’s traditional financial and administrative district. Developed, constructed, and operated by Shimizu Corporation, one of Japan’s largest construction and real estate groups, the project was originally launched in 1999 and remains one of the few Japanese-managed office buildings in Hanoi.

Occupying a prime corner site at the intersection of Phan Chu Trinh and Ly Thuong Kiet Streets, the building enjoys direct views of the Red River, Hanoi Opera House, and Hoan Kiem Lake. The surrounding area is home to major financial and government institutions, including the Ministry of Finance, the State Bank of Vietnam, Vietcombank headquarters, embassies, international organizations, and numerous five-star hotels, making it one of the most prestigious business addresses in Hanoi’s CBD.

The development comprises 15 above-ground floors with a total construction area of approximately 32,000 m² and a total office leasing area of approximately 13,459 m². Typical floor plates measure around 1,200 m², offering efficient and flexible layouts suitable for multinational corporations, representative offices, financial institutions, and professional service firms. In addition to office space, the building also incorporates serviced apartments, creating a mixed-use environment for international tenants.

Built to Japanese standards, Sun Red River Building features centralized air-conditioning, individual temperature controls for office units, high-quality building finishes, modern telecommunications infrastructure, and comprehensive safety systems. The property is equipped with a 100% backup power supply supported by multiple Komatsu generators, international-standard fire protection systems, CCTV surveillance, and 24/7 security services. These features, combined with direct management by Shimizu Corporation, have helped the building maintain a strong reputation for operational reliability and service quality over more than two decades.

One of the project’s distinguishing features is its Japanese management model. Unlike many office towers managed by third-party operators, Sun Red River Building has been directly operated by Shimizu Corporation since its inception, ensuring consistent maintenance standards and long-term asset quality. This has made the building particularly attractive to Japanese companies and multinational occupiers seeking a stable and professionally managed working environment.
