The Niccolo Suzhou, the fifth member of Wharf Hotels’
growing portfolio of Niccolo hotels, celebrated its official
opening on Thursday.
Located on the top floors of the majestic new Suzhou
International Finance Square (IFS) skyscraper, soaring 450-metres
into the clouds, the 233-room Niccolo Suzhou hotel offers guests commanding
panoramic views over neighbouring
Jinji Lake and the Suzhou skyline.
Known as the ‘Venice of the East’ for its UNESCO
World Heritage-listed canals, stone bridges, pagodas and classical
gardens, Suzhou is one of China’s top tourist attractions. The
city is connected to Shanghai by high-speed train which takes only
25 minutes.
Carlo Schmed, Niccolo Suzhou General Manager, said,
“This unique new address embodies Niccolo’s key signatures and
will help us to change the landscape of the city’s business as an
all-week destination. Even before opening, Niccolo Suzhou was the
‘talk of the town’. We now look forward to not only meeting but
exceeding the greatest expectations at the city’s most
sophisticated and stylish new address.”
The hotel features a variety of F&B outlets, a Sky
Pool & Jacuzzi on the 117th floor, a fitness studio and gym, as
well as a choice of flexible meeting and event spaces.
Ms Xiaomei Liu, Member of CPC working committee and Vice Chairman
of SIPAC, said, “IFS is a majestic Beacon of the
Future for our city, inspiring us all to look forward with
optimism and confidence – and Niccolo Suzhou magnificently
elevates our reputation both as a ‘must visit’ luxury destination
and as a hub for 21st century industry, business and commerce in
modern China.”
Niccolo Suzhou’s prized IFS address is designed by
internationally-renowned architects Kohn Pederson Fox, whose
iconic global landmarks include Lotte World Tower in Seoul,
Shanghai World Financial Centre and Hong Kong’s International
Commerce Centre. Interior designs are by global hospitality leader
HBA and reflect Niccolo’s understated sophistication.
