Together, we will convey the brand's heritage, uphold global excellence in service, and integrate these with Chengdu's distinctive local culture. Through this collaborative effort, we aim to create a new benchmark for luxury living that embodies both an international outlook and local character, contributing to Chengdu's emergence as a world-class destination for high-end consumption and resort experiences."
Anthony Bailey, Chairman of The Geminus Group, said: “Chengdu deserves a new landmark in hospitality – rooted in Chengdu. Together with Shilong Group and Corinthia, we are pleased to be shaping Corinthia’s presence in Central Asia, bringing the brand’s timeless, service-led craft into a place of extraordinary culture and character. Building on our strategic partnership with Corinthia, this project reflects our long-term commitment to China: setting a new benchmark for luxury – service-led, beautifully crafted and unmistakably rooted in place.”
