IHG Celebrates Grand Opening of InterContinental Beijing Sanlitun
IHG® (InterContinental Hotels Group), one of the world’s leading hotel companies today announced the grand opening of InterContinental Beijing Sanlitun, which becomes the 37th hotel under the InterContinental® Hotels & Resorts brand in Greater China.
Ideally situated at the heart of Sanlitun Business Circle, InterContinental Beijing Sanlitun enjoys close proximity to Sanlitun SOHO and is sandwiched between Beijing Worker’s Stadium and Embassy District. Beijing's iconic Tiananmen Square and the elite Wangfujing retail district are both within a 15-minute drive. The building has imposing facade and stylish interior decoration. The exterior, resembling inter-linked diamonds, perfectly blends into the atmosphere of Sanlitun. Thoughtfully designed to offer trendy and meticulous luxury, the hotel will invigorate guests with lavish yet organised details. Its design is infused with a creativity that also takes into account elements of local culture.
InterContinental Beijing Sanlitun features 300 guestrooms and chic dining spaces with four different restaurants. Ying-Chinese features Cantonese specialties in fusion with western elements, in a stylish yet casual venue. Ying-Japanese offers guests an authentic Japanese gourmet experience, delivered in an exacting and professional style. With the relaxed vibe of a Madrid patio, TOP Tapas Bar serves authentic Spanish delicacies. Finally, guests seeking expertly-grilled, top-grade prime steak can sate their appetites at the Char-Dining Room & Lounge.
Set to be the most sought after venue in town for banquet and business, the hotel features over 1,500m² of function space, comprising a 800m² Grand Ballroom and eight multi-functional conference rooms, all augmented with high-tech equipment, top quality audio visual facilities, and attended by an excellent banquet service team, making it the ideal venue for all kinds of receptions and entertaining activities.
Justin Channe, Chief Operating Officer, IHG Greater China said “The grand opening of InterContinental Beijing Sanlitun injects new vigor into the group’s effort in maintaining its leading position in the circle of luxury hotel brands. It also demonstrates our determination to position landmark hotels in the first-tier cities in China.”
Christophe Lajus, General Manager of InterContinental Beijing Sanlitun added “We firmly believe InterContinental Beijing Sanlitun will become a paragon of modern luxury hotel. We are confident that its prominent location will make it a new landmark of Beijing, while the unique dining and accommodation experience it provides will soon turn it into an in vogue premise for stylish people and business travelers.”
