Hyatt Signs First Alila Hotel in Shanghai, China

Hyatt has signed an agreement with Fungseng Prosperity to expand its Alila brand to Shanghai, China.

The 188-room Alila Shanghai, a conversion project, will be located in a mixed-use development that will also feature premium offices and retail space in the Jing’an District of the city.

The hotel is scheduled to open in 2023 and will be the first Alila branded urban hotel in China.

The hotel’s F&B outlets will include a rooftop Chinese restaurant, an organic restaurant, Tea Bar and a rooftop bar overlooking the Old Shanghai Zhang Garden.

Other hotel facilities include a spa, an indoor pool, gym, meeting space and a private garden.

“Alila Shanghai presents an unique opportunity to transform and revitalize an existing building into a new offering that will add great value to Shanghai’s hotel scene,” said David Udell, Group President, Asia Pacific for Hyatt. “We hope our innovative vision of the Alila brand’s conscientious living will serve as a launchpad for future developments in the city. We are excited to collaborate with Fungseng Prosperity on this project, which we envision will become the flagship for an urban Alila experience globally.”

Shanghai’s dynamic, fast-growing Jing’an District is one of the most coveted business and residential addresses and home to a vibrant fashion, creative, media, arts and culture community, making it an ideal setting for the Alila brand’s offerings of luxury hospitality and lifestyle experiences.

The hotel’s central location is adjacent to Nanjing West Road, one of Shanghai’s most established high-end shopping thoroughfares, offering premium retail, dining and lifestyle destination.
