TALK OF THE TOWN
W Hotels Worldwide, part of Marriott International, is lighting up the largest city in China’s Hunan province with the opening of W Changsha. The new hotel will be the first W property in central China and is strategically located at the heart of the city’s business and shopping district.
Architecturally, it reflects the bright spirit of the futuristic and multidimensional city with a provocative and playful design inspired by space travel. More than just an addition to the vibrant W brand, W Changsha is set to become a global event space. A 30-minute drive to the Changsha Huanghua International Airport, 15-minute drive to the Changsha South Railway Station and connects directly to the Beijing-Hong Kong-Macau Expressway, it is strategically located to host prominent international events.
Designed by the acclaimed Cheng Chung Design (H.K.) Ltd, W Changsha takes imaginative risks with daring new design forms celebrating Changsha’s rich heritage and modernity. The hotel’s design language features bold geometric patterns mixed with contemporary avant-garde artwork.
Apart from everything hip and happening, W Changsha also offers perfect opportunities to pursue wellness and relaxation. After work or play, guests can chill by the reflection pool. The 24/7, fully equipped FIT fitness center offers weights and cardio as well as heart-pumping dance classes to burn calories before the celebration begins again. For guests who live by the brand’s ‘Detox. Retox. Repeat’ philosophy, AWAY spa is ever-ready to restore and revive their glow.
