Ritz-Carlton is expanding its portfolio of
hotels in China.
Located in the heart of the revitalised former
British concession and central business district, The
Ritz-Carlton, Tianjin, is scheduled to open mid-2013.
The Ritz-Carlton, Tianjin, is located by
the Haihe River, surrounded by the 19th and 20th century
architecture of European nations that sought to trade with China,
reflecting the city’s strategic importance that continues today.
Tianjin enjoys one of the fastest growth rates in China and is a
key hub of the economy. Major industries include petrochemical,
car production, metal works and aircraft manufacturing. It is also
the world’s fifth largest container port and China’s largest
artificial deep-water port.
The soon-to-open
Ritz-Carlton hotel with a grand neo-classical style façade was
designed by the Tianjin Academy of Urban Planning and Design, with
interiors created by luxury hospitality designer, Pierre-Yves Rochon. It houses 277 rooms, including 53 suites and reflects the
cultural European heritage in the district.
The property will showcase
four restaurants and bars, the signature of which will be a Cantonese restaurant with 10 private dining rooms, each
featuring its own private wine cellar.
The
popularity of the trendy lifestyle venue, Flair Bar and Lounge at
The Ritz-Carlton Shanghai, Pudong influenced a sister venue at The
Ritz-Carlton, Tianjin which will offer Asian tapas, a dedicated
bar and a cigar cellar adjacent to the private room on the
Mezzanine level. Flair in Tianjin will also feature nightly lounge
music.
The Lobby Lounge, located at the heart of
the hotel’s majestic lobby will embrace the tradition of
classical English Afternoon Tea service and a gourmet selection of
fine Chinese and British teas, and an all-day dining restaurant with a theatre of live cooking stations will serve cuisine from
Japan, China and Italy.
The Ritz-Carlton Club
Lounge for club and suite guests will have a warm designer urban
apartment atmosphere with elements to include a grand fire place
room, a library, separate game and entertainment areas as well as
a boutique bar and residential kitchen styling.
Conference spaces will include one of the city’s largest
ballrooms, and three additional function rooms, totaling 1,625 square meters of space. The hotel will be fully equipped with an
indoor swimming pool, luxury fitness and spa facilities.
