Shangri-La Hotels and Resorts will open a hotel in Hohhot in China's Inner Mongolia in late 2007. The Shangri-La Hotel, Hohhot will be the second hotel for the chain in the Inner Mongolia region, following the Shangri-La Hotel, Baotou opening mid 2007.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Designed by Hong Kong-based Dennis Lau and Ng Chun Man Architects and Engineers Ltd., the Shangri-La Hotel, Hohhot will be centrally located in the city's prime commercial area, a 20-minute drive from the airport and five-minute drive from the train station. The 19-story hotel will feature 373 guestrooms and 11 serviced apartments. Each guestroom will measure a minimum of 38 square metres and will provide the full array of Shangri-La services and facilities, including 24-hour room service, same day laundry and valet service, satellite TV, data ports and broadband internet access. The three-floor, 69-room Horizon Club accommodations will offer exclusive amenities and privileges, such as private meeting rooms, express check-in and check-out services, a Horizon Club lounge for daily breakfast and cocktails, and more.<\/p>\n
The hotel will also provide a 24-hour dining cafe, lobby lounge, Chinese restaurant and Mongolian restaurant. Meeting and banqueting facilities will be highlighted by the largest ballroom in the city — a 1,800-square-metre ballroom with additional 570 square-metre pre-function area. This will be complemented by a 470 square-metre junior ballroom, and other eight function rooms with a total space of 1,250 square metres. Other major hotel facilities such as business centre and health club with indoor swimming pool will also be available. <\/p>\n
Hohhot offers tremendous economic potential and Shangri-La is committed to remaining at the forefront of expansion into thriving China business centres, said Giovanni Angelini, Shangri-La's chief executive officer and managing director. This landmark new hotel will attract both business and leisure domestic travellers and further strengthen our presence in mainland China.<\/p>\n
Hohhot is the capital of China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, with a population of over two million. Built in the Ming Dynasty, Hohhot, meaning a city in green in Mongolian, is well known for its culture and history. It is also a centre for wool and leather products, building materials, iron and steel production. Of special interest to tourists is the famous Mongol Summer Festival in mid-August every year with traditional Mongolian sports. <\/p>\n
