The highly anticipated St. Regis Macau, Cotai Central opened for mid-December. The luxury hotel, part of a complex of hotels under the company Sands China Ltd., soars 37 stories and holds 400 rooms.

“Whether it’s hotel, restaurant, retail or other amenities or attractions, our developments on the Cotai Strip have become home to many of the world’s most-renowned and important brand names,” said Mr. Sheldon G. Adelson, chairman and chief executive officer, Las Vegas Sands Corp. and Sands China Ltd. “The opening of The St. Regis Macao is another significant step in Macao being able to differentiate itself from other destinations and further enhances Macao’s ability to draw even more leisure tourists and business travelers from throughout the region and across the globe. As we have from the outset, we will continue to invest in Macao’s tourism future, which next year includes the opening of The Parisian Macao. The 3,000-room property complete with a stunning replica Eiffel Tower is destined to become Asia’s new ‘must-see’ property.”

The hotel held its grand opening and ribbon cutting Dec. 18. The St. Regis brand is known for its opulence, with its St. Regis Butler Service offering personalized service. The hotel also features meeting space, a spa, dining options, a health club and pool and quick access to the other Cotai Strip properties and attractions.
