Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group brings legendary service and state-of-the-art facilities to Southern China with the opening of Mandarin Oriental, Guangzhou in 2012.
Selected by Forbes Travel Guide as one of “The 10 Most Anticipated Hotel Openings Of 2012”, the hotel Mandarin Oriental, Guangzhou which has 233 rooms and 30 suites and 24 serviced apartments is located above TaiKoo Hui. This is a prestigious 450,000 square metre, mixed-use development comprising luxury shopping, grade-A office space and an impressive cultural centre, which is set in Guangzhou’s Tianhe Central Business District, a new address in the heart of the Pearl River Delta.
Linked directly to TaiKoo Hui’s world-class shopping, office and entertainment venues, the hotel is also conveniently connected to Shipaiqiao Station, Line 3 of the city’s metro system, and is 5 minutes from Guangzhou East Railway Station, which speeds passengers via high-speed rail link to and from Hong Kong in approximately 2 hours, and to Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport in just 45 minutes.
The hotel’s interior designer, Tony Chi &Associates, has fused traditional elements of the orient with the modern identity of today’s “new China”. As a designer with an intimate working knowledge of the service industry, Tony Chi & Associates were the perfect choice for this project, explains the hotel’s General Manager, Clemens Hoerth. The result is the creation of spaces that are contemporary, inviting and responsive.
