Shangri-La Hotels and Resorts has opened its third hotel in Shanghai.
Located on the Puxi side of the Huangpu River in the very heart of Shanghai, Jing An Shangri-La, West Shanghai is part of one of the city’s most fashionable neighbourhoods.
The 508-room hotel is the centrepiece of the impressive new 450,000-square-metre Jing An Kerry Centre. In 1993, Kerry Holdings Limited began purchasing parcels of land where Jing An Kerry Centre sits with the vision of developing a high-end, mixed-use complex in the very heart of Shanghai, and Jing An Shangri-La breaks new ground for the Hong Kong-based hotel group with a glamorous design.
“The hotel is very Shanghainese in that it is a balance of the new and the traditional,” said Shangri-La President and Chief Executive Officer, Greg Dogan. “Guests will experience Shangri-La’s genuine, heart-warming hospitality, and discover classic Shangri-La design reinterpreted in a luxurious contemporary way that complements the vibrancy of the Jing An district.”
