Dusit Signs Princess Hotel in Jiangyin, China

Dusit Fudu Hotels and Resorts, the Shanghai-based hospitality management arm of Dusit International, has signed a second management agreement with Jiangsu Huaqiang Real Estate Development to manage a 400-room mid-scale DusitPrincess Hotel and Residence in Jiangyin City, Jiangsu Province.

The property is expected to open in late 2016.

The DusitPrincess Hotel and Residence Jiangyin, Jiangsu will offer 150 guestrooms, 250 apartments, an all-day dining restaurant, health club and meeting rooms.

Located on the southern bank of Yangtze River, Jiangyin is a county under the jurisdiction of Wuxi City, one of the thirteen prefecture-level cities in Jiangsu Province.

Jiangyin has been a major port on the Yangtze since the Tang Dynasty and in 2014, the city’s GDP was 275 billion Chinese Yuan, topping the list of China’s Top 100 Counties.

Jiangyin is just 20 minutes by car from Wuxi High Speed train station and a 2-hour drive from Shanghai and Nanjing.

“We warmly welcome the DusitPrincess Hotel and Residence, Jiangyin to our growing portfolio of hotels in China. Three DusitPrincess Hotels and Residences are due to launch in 2016, in the cities of Shanghai, Panzhihua in Sichuan Province and now, Jiangyin. The DusitPrincess brand is welcoming, efficient and affordable and this hotel has been designed with the well-being of both travellers and long-stay guests in mind,” said Mr. Lim Boon Kwee, President of Dusit Fudu Hotels and Resorts.
