The China National Tourism Administration has issued a license to the Overseas Chinese Hotel Wenzhou and formally approved it as the city's first five-star hotel.

Now the hotel is not only the first 5-star hotel in Wenzhou, but also the first one in that region of southern Zhejiang Province.

At present, there are 78 star-grade hotels in Wenzhou, offering more than 10,000 rooms. 12 of these hotels are 4-star hotels, and 38 are 3-star hotels. The average room occupancy of all these hotels is about 70%, and the rate is 80% for hotels at the 4-star level.

The lack of 5-star hotels in Wenzhou has restricted the development of the local hospitality industry in recent years and the local community now looks forward to more deluxe openings in the coming years.
