The Park Hyatt Shenzhen has opened in the Southern China city, offering business travellers luxurious new digs at the centre of this vitalistic city.
Sitting atop a 48-story skyscraper in the heart of the Futian central business district, the new hotel is within walking distance of Shenzhen Convention and Exhibition Center and surrounded by corporate offices and luxury shopping. The hotel is located 3 kilometres from Futian Checkpoint and has direct underground access to metro lines, the Futian High Speed Train station, and Hong Kong SAR.
Designed by the New York-based architectural firm Kohn Pedersen Fox Associates (KPF), the 48-story building resembles a dynamic glass and steel butterfly with its wings spread against the Shenzhen city skyline. The elegant and refined interiors of Park Hyatt Shenzhen have been designed by Yabu Pushelberg to celebrate the Park Hyatt brand’s heritage and to create a haven of tranquillity.
Tranquillity in Design
The hotel’s 195 spacious guestrooms and suites are designed to create an Asian-inspired sanctuary. Located on floors 36 to 44, guestroom range from 48 square meters to 299 square meters. Upon entering each guestroom, guests can find floor-to-ceiling windows framing the spectacular sky-high views. In soothing shades of grey, taupe and ochre, the rooms also incorporate subtle contemporary Chinese detailing, ranging from the artwork to the lantern-style pendant lighting to the minibar resembling a modern Chinese cabinet.
In the marble-lined bathroom, the Asian influence continues in the twin vanity stand inspired by traditional Chinese architecture. Bathrooms also feature a deep soaking tub, spa-inspired rain shower, and premium toiletries custom-created for Park Hyatt Shenzhen by cult New York perfumer Le Labo, renowned for its fresh, handmade fragrances.
World-Class Gastronomy
Park Hyatt Shenzhen will launch a unique collection of bars and restaurants to showcase its outstanding cuisine accompanied by unrivalled views of the Shenzhen skyline. Flanking an entire side of Level 33, Living Room is a residential-style venue streaming natural light, stunning views and a sense of intimate comfort and timeless elegance, where guests can congregate for afternoon tea or evening drinks.
Also on Level 33 is Garden Pavilion, specializing in classic and authentic Cantonese cuisine as well as Sichuan and Jiangnan specialities. Comprising a series of pavilions immersed in greenery, the décor creates an extraordinary setting akin to outdoor dining. The botanical theme continues in the restaurant’s four private dining suites, each with its own lounge and powder room, where wallcoverings depict bucolic scenes of mountains, trees and wildlife.
Opening late August, The Glasshouse on Level 47 has a contemporary alfresco-dining feel with natural light flooding in from the glass ceiling and wraparound windows, and an abundance of outdoor-inspired whitewashed brick, decking and paving. It is a contemporary restaurant and bar offering a wide range of beverages and casually elegant European cuisine with a Chinese sensibility.
Located on Level 48, The Attic will also open in late August, serving as a penthouse bar that continues with a botanical theme and foliage above a large marble counter bar.
