Hyatt and Sun Hung Kai Properties Limited today announce plans for a new Andaz hotel – Andaz Shanghai ITC – to be located in Xujiahui, Shanghai. The new luxury lifestyle hotel, expected to open in 2024, will offer global travelers inspiring and unique experiences in the vibrant city of Shanghai.
Andaz Shanghai ITC will feature the brand’s thoughtful and unscripted service with 265 guestrooms and suites, one signature restaurant and an Andaz Lounge, as well as a state-of-the-art fitness center, an indoor pool and unique event spaces. Located atop the area’s transportation hub, the hotel’s prime location will offer excellent accessibility for inquisitive travelers who wish to enjoy Shanghai and fully immerse themselves in the city through the brand’s distinct expressions of local culture and focus on authentic experiences.
Xujiahui is a well-established residential, commercial and cultural area in Central Shanghai, known for its diverse shopping and entertainment options. Due to its location as a key transportation hub, the Shanghai government plans to rejuvenate and upgrade Xujiahui, into an important sub-CBD. ITC, a mega mixed-use complex, situated in the heart of Xujiahui, is set to become one of the most sought-after landmarks in Shanghai.
The new Andaz hotel, as part of the prestigious ITC development, will bring the brand’s focus on local perspectives to life and offer elevated sensory experiences to global travellers, enlivening the area by creating additional leisure and commercial activities.
“At Hyatt, we are committed to collaborating with owners who support our strategy to grow our brands with intent and with those who share our focus on delivering high-end experiences and operational excellence. We are delighted to further expand our relationship with Sun Hung Kai Properties (SHKP) to develop Andaz Shanghai ITC, following a successful collaboration on Park Hyatt Hangzhou and the recently opened Hyatt Centric Victoria Harbour Hong Kong,” said Stephen Ho, president of Growth and Operations, Asia Pacific, Hyatt. “Driven by our shared vision, we look forward to working alongside SHKP to expand the Andaz brand’s presence in Shanghai and China, and provide guests with immersive experiences through distinct expressions of local culture.”
Set to be the second Andaz hotel in Shanghai, Andaz Shanghai ITC will further drive meaningful growth of the Andaz brand’s footprint in Greater China and join other Andaz hotels in key destinations including Shenzhen, Nanjing, Macau, Taipei and the recently opened Andaz Xiamen.
Andaz Nanjing is another collaboration between Hyatt and SHKP, which will be located in the Nanjing IFC in Nanjing Hexi CBD.
