Hyatt Introduces Yada Xishan Hotel Yixing: A Serene Retreat in the Heart of Jiangnan
Hyatt Hotels Corporation announced the opening of Yada Xishan Hotel Yixing, the first Hyatt-branded hotel in the charming city of Yixing and the latest addition to The Unbound Collection by Hyatt portfolio. Located in the heart of the Yangxian Ecotourism Resort in Yixing, this enchanting sanctuary marks a significant milestone in The Unbound Collection by Hyatt’s brand expansion, as the eighth property to open in Greater China. Designed for those who are seeking an escape from the fast-paced urban life, this 102-room hotel is a one-of-a-kind luxurious retreat, offering guests a unique blend of natural wonders and cultural richness nestled where the majestic Taihu Lake begins.
Yixing is located in the south of the Yangtze River, where the provinces of Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Anhui meet. In addition to its extraordinary natural landscapes and scenery, Yixing is known for its unique geographical location and long-standing heritage that has been present for over a thousand years. Renowned for its purple sand ceramics, it is known within the region as the “pottery capital,” as well as the birthplace of calligraphy, painting and academics.” Situated within the Yangxian Ecotourism Resort, which is built on a slope among 185,000 acres of bamboo forest and 43,000 acres of tea plantations, the hotel is surrounded by several historical landmarks such as the Bamboo Sea View Area, Zhanggong Cave, and the Taozu Holy Land, creating a tranquil destination to recharge and revitalize.
