Rosewood Hotel Group has signalled the next chapter of its Asian expansion with appointments to manage four key properties.
These include Rosewood Shenzhen, due to open in 2022, Rosewood Hermana Mayor (2023), New World Jaipur Resort (2023) and Rosewood Shanghai (2024.)
“We intend to double the number of Rosewood hotels in the next five years, from our current 24 hotels in 15 countries, with a full one-third of new properties located in Asia,” said Sonia Cheng, chief executive officer of Rosewood Hotel Group.
“China remains a priority and our entry into Shanghai and Shenzhen represents an important expansion of our footprint in tier one cities.”
The new Asia hotels join Rosewood deals announced this past year for Chengdu, Yangon, Antigua and Houston, recent openings in Phnom Penh, Luang Prabang and Baha Mar in the Bahamas, and the re-opening of Rosewood Bermuda following a renovation.
