Hilton has opened its first ever hotel in the UNESCO-listed Chinese town of Dali, Yunnan province.
Located halfway up Cangshan Mountain and facing Erhai Lake, Hilton Dali Resort & Spa offers a total of 375 rooms, all with private balconies, plus Chinese, Italian and international restaurants, a lobby lounge and a bar with a billiards table.
There is also a large 24-hour fitness centre, a spa, indoor swimming pool, kids’ pool, kids’ club, mah-jong rooms and a rooftop mini-golf course.
And for the MICE market the hotel offers a total of 14 meeting spaces, including a 1,100m² ballroom.
“Hilton Hotels & Resorts is ready to set the standard for world-class hospitality in Dali. With the hotel situated at the crossroads of Dali’s Ancient Town and the Xia Guan commercial district, Hilton Dali Resort & Spa provides international and domestic travellers the opportunity to immerse themselves into this special region steeped in culture and civilization for centuries,” said Rob Palleschi, Hilton’s global head of full-service brands.
The new Hilton Dali becomes the company’s fourth property in Yunnan province, following the Hilton Fuxian Lake, DoubleTree by Hilton Xishuangbanna and Hilton Garden Inn Lijiang. It also joins a portfolio of 64 Hilton hotels currently operating in Greater China, with 180 more in the pipeline.
“We are well on our way to quadrupling our portfolio of operational hotels in China within the next few years and are proud to add Dali to the growing list of top destinations where we have established a presence,” said Bruce McKenzie, Hilton’s senior vice president of operations for Greater China & Mongolia.
