Los Angeles based-sbe plans to debut SLS Hotels in China.
CEO Sam Nazarian will outfit the hotels with an array of entertainment venues, restaurants, and nightlife experiences tailored specifically to the Chinese market. Shanghai, Beijing, Wuxi, and Kunming are the first cities confirmed for SLS Hotels, along with plans to launch SLS Hotels in additional Chinese markets after 2015.
“China is home to one of the fastest-growing tourism markets worldwide, and Shanghai, Beijing, Wuxi, and Kunming attract a global community of business and leisure travelers whose sensibilities align very well with the SLS Hotels experience,” says Nazarian, CEO and chairman of sbe. “After growing the brand successfully across the U.S., we’re honored to share the SLS Hotels approach to hospitality with China, which is rooted in a commitment to uncompromising service, innovative design, and captivating food and beverage offerings.”
