Starwood Hotels & Resorts unveiled its tallest St. Regis property last week in Shenzhen, China. Following recent openings in Bangkok, Tianjin and Sanya Yalong Bay, The St. Regis Shenzhen marks the brand’s fourth hotel opening in Asia in the last six months.
Designed by famed architect Sir Terry Farrell, The St. Regis now occupies floors 72-100 of the landmark Kingkey 100 building, the tallest building in the city. The St. Regis Shenzhen offers guests a new dimension of luxury with 257 sumptuously appointed guest rooms and 40 suites with spectacular views of the city.
“The opening of The St. Regis Shenzhen represents a significant moment for St. Regis, as the brand continues to grow globally in destinations designed for a new generation of affluent travelers,” says Paul James, Global Brand Leader St. Regis and The Luxury Collection Hotels & Resorts.
“We are eager to debut The St. Regis Shenzhen to both international travelers and the local community,” added General Manager Stephen Ford in a statement. “With our superb location, sophisticated service and refined elegance, we look forward to offering guests an unparalleled experience both befitting of the destination and true to the St. Regis legacy.”
The St. Regis Shenzhen will provide fully customized iPad2 remote controls in each room allowing guests to easily connect and manage all of the room’s amenities. The hotel features a sprawling Iridium Spa, a collection of world class restaurants and lounges and will be the only hotel in the Shenzhen to offer the legendary signature St. Regis Butler Service to all guests.
