Park Hotel Group celebrates Grand Opening of Hotel in Xian

Park Hotel Group has celebrated the Grand Opening of the Grand Park Xian in China's ancient capital famed for the Terracotta Warriors.

In late 2008, Park Hotel Group acquired the former Grand Castle Hotel and rebranded it as Grand Park Xian.

The Grand Park Xian, one of the city's premier 5-star hotels, has been newly refurbished. Adjacent to the ancient City Wall in the heart of the city’s business, shopping and entertainment district, the 338-room hotel is renowned for its opulent palatial architecture, luxurious accommodation and authentic ancient-style Chinese cuisine, showcased by its famous 'Empress Banquet'.

Park Hotel Group’s fast-growing portfolio of hotels now covers Singapore, China, Hong Kong and Japan. The company intends to expand further in China, looking at ten more hotels in the next three to five years.

"Despite the downturn, we are taking a long-term perspective of things and intend to continue exploring opportunities for expansion in China and the wider Asia Pacific region,” said Mr Allen Law, Director of Park Hotel Group.

“China’s long-term growth projections point to healthy tourism growth rates, in both the inbound and outbound sectors.”

Grand Park Xian is in close proximity to the city’s many historic attractions including the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. It is 35 km from Lintong, home to the famed Terracotta Warriors and the Mausoleum of China’s First Emperor, Qin Shi Huang.
