The 283-room hotel is located in the city's Central Business District, opposite the iconic China Central Television headquarters.

With its roots in North America, Rosewood Hotels and Resorts operates 18 luxury properties in nine countries, such as the United States and the United Kingdom, and its target is to double that number in the next five years.
