The first Conrad hotel in Fujian province opened its doors. The Conrad Xiamen, located on the southwestern coast of the island, is the sixth Conrad property in China. “Conrad Xiamen is an excellent addition to our China portfolio. It underscores our commitment to growing our presence across the top destinations of this market and our confidence in the increasing demand for luxury accommodations from a new generation of smart luxury travellers,” said Bruce McKenzie, senior vice president of operations, greater China & Mongolia, Hilton International. The Conrad Xiamen is located on 17 floors of the Shimao Straits Tower, a business and leisure destination in Siming, with views of Gulangyu Island. Guests at Conrad Xiamen have direct access to the tower’s offerings, including a mall, cinema, shopping and dining. The property offers 241 guestrooms and suites, each with floor-to-ceiling windows, walk-in wardrobes, flat-screen televisions, hydrotherapy rain showers and more. On the 37th floor is the 24-hour health club and fitness centre, with access to personal trainers. The indoor pool boasts views of the ocean, and the fitness centre’s Jacuzzi and spa make the perfect places to relax. Eight meeting rooms hold up to more than 200 people, and a large ballroom and foyer can accommodate sea-view events. Guests choose from five dining options. Coast Bar & Grill is the highest bar in the city, serving up a menu of fresh seafood. Lucheng offers Cantonese and Fujian cuisine, with private rooms for corporate dining or events. Pier 38 is the all-day buffet, and Plush serves tea and drinks, while French Kiss prepares Western meals and Parisian-style pastries. “We are delighted with the debut of our Conrad Hotel & Resorts brand in Fujian. Conrad Xiamen is a great flagship hotel that epitomizes the luxurious facilities and intuitive service that will provide our guests with inspired experiences and define a new standard for luxury in Xiamen,” said John Vanderslice, global head, Conrad Hotels & Resorts.

Mar 28, 2024Cruise Lines Elevate the Onboard Fine-Dining Experience
It’s been a long time since the food on cruise ships resembled the bland, uninspired fare that gave onboard dining a bad name. These days, cruise passengers can look forward to menus created by Michelin-starred chefs made with top-quality ingredients served in stunning spaces. Choices abound as well. In addition to elegant main dining rooms, cruise ships have created a huge array of specialty restaurants that focus not only on perfectly executed traditional European and North American dishes but flavors and experiences from around the globe as well. In fact, meals served aboard cruise vessels have gotten so good, they’re drawing passengers onto ships: According to a recent report by luxury travel planning network Virtuoso, advisors report after Europe (specifically Italy and France), the No. 2 dining destination for travelers is aboard an ocean or river cruise. “This shows how cruise lines have really stepped up their culinary game, with consulting chefs and new restaurants and making that a focal point,” said Misty Belles, vice president, Global Public Relations, Virtuoso.
