Regent Beijing, the 500-room hotel, owned by property development company, Fu Wah International Group and managed by Carlson, has opened for business. Madam Chan Lai Wa, the founder of Fu Wah International Group, said, “The Regent Beijing is a key addition to our company’s investment ventures. This will be our second hotel partnership with Carlson in China and reinforces our confidence in Carlson Hotels Worldwide as our trusted global partner.”

“Jinbao Street is one of Fu Wah’s key investment areas and is taking shape as one of the premium streets in Beijing. Projects in the area include shopping centres, luxury hotels and international schools. It will satisfy the needs of the capital’s business leaders, government visitors and even movie stars. Guests at the Regent are also in close proximity to China’s most famous heritage sites including the Forbidden City, Tiananmen Square and Chang’an Street” Madam Chan added.

Located in the commercial heart of Beijing, this state-of-the-art hotel provides guests with an exclusive sanctuary that blends contemporary luxury with the charm of historic China.

With interior design by world-renowned company Hirsch/Bedner Associates, the contemporary yet classic The Regent Beijing features luxurious guestrooms and suites that offer modern facilities including complimentary high speed internet access, large plasma television screens and DVD players. A number of the guestrooms enjoy panoramic views of the spectacular Forbidden City.

Four restaurants provide a wide array of dining experiences including:

The Bar and Grill, an intimate and sophisticated restaurant featuring an exceptional grill menu and a wide range of high quality French wines and champagne, premium spirits, ports and liquors; Daccapo, a contemporary Italian restaurant which is the perfect spot for lunch or dinner; Café 99, a more casual all-day dining restaurant, offers a la carte and a buffet selection of Western and Asian favourites; Li Jing Xuan offers Cantonese cuisine and features a main dining area and ten private dining rooms; and The Crescent Lounge is the ideal setting for a casual soiree, high tea or evening cocktails.

For meetings and events, The Regent Beijing offers a range of function rooms from a large 625 square metre ballroom to seven alternate rooms ideal for small to medium sized meetings or banquets. A unique state-of-the-art new generation lighting system provides remote-controlled lighting, allowing for the room to be set to a variety of moods.
