Dusit Fudu Hotels & Resorts has reached an agreement with Zheng Heng Group to manage the new deluxe Dusit Thani Resort in Fuzhou, Fujian Province.

The property will become the first internationally branded hot springs and wellness resort in the area.

The agreement was signed by senior executives from both parties at a ceremony held at the flagship Dusit Thani Bangkok.

The Dusit Thani Hot Springs & Wellness Resort Fuzhou is located in Lianjiang County, a well-known hot springs destination in the northern area of Fuzhou.

Founded in 202 BC, Fuzhou has over 2,200 years of history, with an abundant display of relics and sites of historical interest.

Fuzhou is the capital of Fujian Province and is also one of southeast China’s main transport hubs.

Scheduled to open in the second quarter of 2019, the Dusit Thani Hot Springs & Wellness Resort Fuzhou offers 250 guestrooms and villas, with many featuring private hot springs pools set against a tranquil and picturesque landscape.

The resort is located 50 minutes from Fuzhou’s Changle International Airport and 30 minutes by car from both the Fuzhou High Speed Train Station and the central business district.

Dining options at the resort include an all-day dining restaurant, a Chinese Restaurant with private dining rooms and a Lobby Lounge, while expansive function rooms featuring the latest audio-visual facilities will cater for meetings and social events.

Lim Boon Kwee, chief operating officer of Dusit International, said “We are pleased to bring Dusit’s brand of gracious Thai hospitality to this exciting city.

“We are confident that alongside our partners, the Dusit Thani Hot Springs and Wellness Resort Fuzhou will deliver an inspiring and rejuvenating getaway for both local and international guests.”
