St. Regis Hotels & Resorts announced the opening of The St. Regis Changsha last week, located in Hunan’s thriving and historic capital in southern China.

The new hotel boasts a timeless blend of modern innovation and tradition, elevating Changsha’s luxury hospitality landscape. The brand expects to debut The St. Regis Shanghai Jing’an later this year, in addition to four hotels in Greater China’s gateway cities and leisure destinations over the next five years.

“We are delighted to offer guests unmatched accommodations in one of the world’s most exquisite cities and introduce the St. Regis brand’s distinguished heritage to Changsha, elevating the local hospitality landscape to new heights,” said Fiona Hagan, general manager, The St. Regis Changsha.

The St. Regis Changsha is situated at the lower reaches of the Xiang River, an ideal destination for business and leisure travel. Design features include traditional Chinese bronze ware, pottery, porcelain and calligraphy, as well as panoramic views of the beautiful landscapes from the top of the nearby Yuelu Mountain. Hotel services include the signature St. Regis Butler service, exceptional culinary venues, an athletics club and luxury tea and bar lounges.
