by Aoife Dowling | 26 Feb 2013

Mövenpick Hotels & Resorts has announced the signing of two new hotels and spas in China and Thailand.

The Swiss company will open a new beach resort in Hua Hin, Thailand, and a 250-room hotel in Enshi City, China.

Located in the Hubei Province in central China, the 14-story Movenpick Hotel Enshi, which will launch Q3 2013, will mark the group’s first opening in China.

The hotel will feature a luxury spa and fitness centre, a swimming pool, two restaurants, a ballroom and eight meeting rooms.

By 2015, Mövenpick will have four properties open in China: the upcoming hotel in Enshi; a 380-room resort on Phoenix Island, Sanya; a 350-room property in Chifeng City, Inner Mongolia, and a 300-room hotel in Jiading, Shanghai.

Elsewhere, the new 190-room Mövenpick Resort & Spa, Hua Hin will be located on the West Coast of the Gulf of Thailand - a leisure destination famous for its pristine beaches, golf courses and hill hiking.

The new hotel will take its inspiration from the Thai beach resort atmosphere and offer landscaped gardens, a luxury spa, two restaurants, a lobby lounge, ballroom, pool, and function rooms.

The new signings are in line with the global strategy of Mövenpick Hotels & Resorts to open 100 hotels across Africa, Europe, the Middle East and Asia by 2015, allocating around 25 properties to each region.
