032As the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic Games looms, foreign luxury hotel brands are eyeing opportunities associated with the event and beefing up efforts to open hotels in China, especially in the host cities of the sports event.


International leading hotel company InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG) held an official opening of the HUALUXE Zhangjiakou on April 26 in Zhangjiakou, one of the host cities for the event, said IHG CEO Richard Solomons.

031Sitting at the center of Zhangjiakou, the HUALUXE Zhangjiakou becomes IHG's 300th property in its greater China region and also the first upscale international hotel in the city.


The hotel is 8 kilometres from the Zhangjiakou railway station and 12 kilometres from the airport, said the statement.


"Global events like the 2022 Winter Olympics Games herald a great opportunity for the development of Zhangjiakou, especially in the tourism and hospitality industry," Solomons said.


"China is our second-largest market after the US and also the fastest-growing one," Solomons said. "Tourism has been identified as a strategic core industry in China's 13th Five-year Plan period (2016-20). This will be a boon for the hospitality industry, not to mention the rise of the middle class in the country."
