SWISSÔTEL Jinan is the latest hotel to join Swissôtel Hotels & Resorts’ collection of hotels in China, with the property scheduled to debut in 2020.
The hotel is owned by JiangSu Golden Land Real Estate Development subsidiary Nanjing Jin Gao Real Estate Development. Swissôtel will manage the 248-key property.
Located in Jinan, the capital of Shandong province in east China, Swissôtel Jinan offers easy access to the city’s metro lines and the Jinan International Airport, as well as the high-speed railway. It is part of a larger mixed-use development featuring residential, retail and office buildings, the hotel will be located in the city’s Han Yu District.
Guests will find five dining outlets and 2,900m2 of event and banquet space within the hotel, which will also offer access to a Pürovel Spa & Sport – the company’s Alpine-inspired signature wellbeing brand.
“This project is exciting on a number of fronts,” said Foued El Mabrouk, vice president, operations, China, FRHI Hotels & Resorts, in a statement. “It not only supports our growth plan of strategic expansion into key Chinese markets, but it also marks another excellent development opportunity with an experienced and committed partner in Golden Land development; a group we recently teamed with to develop and open a remarkable Fairmont hotel in Nanjing.”
