Bvlgari Hotel for Shanghai

Italian jewellery and luxury goods brand Bvlgari has opened its latest upmarket hotel with a development on the banks of Suzhou Creek in Shanghai. Part of the Suhe Creek riverside urban revitalisation project, it is the sixth in the Bvlgari collection.

The company opened is first Chinese property in Beijing last September, joining a growing worldwide portfolio which began with the Bvlgari Hotel Milano in 2004, the Bvlgari Resort Bali in 2006, the Bvlgari Hotel London in 2012 and the Bvlgari Resort Dubai in 2017.

The new Shanghai hotel combines a 48-storey tower with the restored Chamber of Commerce building dating from 1916 and is surrounded by lush gardens. The 82 guestrooms, including 19 suites, offer views of the iconic Bund and Pudong financial district.

General manager Vincent Billiard said: “The extraordinary metropolitan location in the Suhe Creek development, a protected heritage zone, with the hotel’s contemporary glamorous style set new standards of luxury accommodation for Shanghai.”

Bvlgari CEO Jean-Christophe Babin added: “I like to think of the Bvlgari Hotels collection as a necklace and we have added a sixth gem to it. It is a momentous day to be opening our second property in China in less than a year.”
