Accor has soft-opened its Sofitel Xining in China, set to debut later this year at the hotel's grand opening.
The 492 bedroom neo-Gothic-style hotel and a spa incorporates “the best of Chinese traditional hospitality with characteristic French art de vivre,” according to a company statement.
Details of the spa are still being worked out in advance of its opening later this year, but it will specialise in “traditional oriental rejuvenating treatments,” and will be part of a 3,000sq m (32,292sq ft) recreational hub that will also include an indoor swimming pool and gym.
In addition, the hotel includes three restaurants and 2,500sq m (26,910sq ft) of function rooms.
Accor has also opened the upscale, serviced 197-apartment complex Sebel Xining, which is directly connected to the Sofitel and offers access to the hotel’s restaurants and services.
“The opening of Sofitel and Sebel in Xining will be a strong addition to Accor’s luxury and upscale brand presence in Northwest China, with both brands appealing to travellers looking for excellent service and state-of-the-art leisure and business facilities,” said Michel Molliet, senior vice president, operations, luxury upscale, Accor Greater China.
The hotel complex is part of Xining Xin Hua Lian City Complex, which also includes a high-end shopping centre and office buildings.
