Rosewood Hotels & Resorts is set to expand its footprint in China with a new property in Hangzhou opening in 2025.
Rosewood Hangzhou will be situated within a mixed-use development project, Wangjiang New City, which will include a K11 Art Mall, office buildings and workspaces, luxury residences and cultural attractions.
The hotel will sit in a standalone, 16-storey building featuring 140 rooms, including 17 suites; a fitness centre, an indoor pool, hydrotherapy areas and an executive lounge for suite guests.
Four dining outlets will include an all-day bistro, a Chinese restaurant, a speciality bar and a culinary and retail hybrid concept that combines a flower shop, a lounge and a patisserie.
The property lies close to key landmarks including West Lake and the central business district, Qianjiang New City. The area will also be connected to two subway lines.
The property joins nine existing Rosewood properties in Asia, including Rosewood Beijing, Rosewood Guangzhou and Rosewood Hong Kong. The brand has an additional seven properties in development in the region, including projects in Shanghai, Shenzhen and Hoi An.
“We are thrilled to further our presence in China and bring a new level of luxury hospitality to one of its most alluring cities with the addition of Rosewood Hangzhou,” said Sonia Cheng, chief executive of Rosewood Hotel Group.
“Hangzhou is a prosperous and dynamic city which offers serene natural wonders and rich culture for artistic exploration, as well as a setting for the development of new ideas in business and technology, making it well suited for both leisure and business travellers.
“The Wangjiang New City development is an exceptional reflection of Hangzhou’s horizons and Rosewood is excited to be a part of the city’s continued growth.”
