Shangri-La has signed a deal to open a Hotel Jen in Beijing.
Opening in January 2017, the 450-room Hotel Jen Beijing will be located in the first 22 floors of the new China World, Tower B, in the China World Trade Center development, with easy access to the nearby entertainment, dining and retail venues.
The hotel will be situated near the Guomao Subway Station, with easy access to major attractions, such as the Great Wall, Forbidden City, Temple of Heaven, Tiananmen Square and Beihai Park.
“As we continue to grow the Hotel Jen brand in Asia, we are excited to bring our friendly and energetic hospitality style into the heart of Beijing’s financial and business centre,” said Lothar Nessmann, COO at Hotel Jen. “With its prime location, Hotel Jen Beijing will be ideal for independent business and leisure travellers who seek a fuss-free stay that offers quality, comfort and value coupled with distinctive local experiences.”
Instead of the traditional staid business centre, the hotel will offer a stylish and dynamic co-working space featuring a cafe and city views, 13 meeting spaces and one multi-function venue for up to 300 people.
An all-day-dining restaurant will serve authentic local and Asian cuisines, while guests will also be able to enjoy refreshing beer and small bites at the hotel’s gastropub.
Open to hotel guests and members, the 3,500-square-metre fitness centre will offer an indoor swimming pool, boxing ring, fitness studios and the latest training facilities. The hotel will also offer relaxing reflexology and spa treatments.
Clifford Weiner, Hotel Jen Beijing’s general manager, said, “We aim to create and nurture an environment that encourages new ways of conducting business and stimulates interaction. We look forward to welcoming guests to our innovative spaces, including our meeting venues, fitness centre and gastropub, and helping them to work smart and play hard.”
The hotel will be the third Hotel Jen to open in mainland China since Shangri-La launched the brand two years ago.
