SINGAPORE, 2017-Nov-10 — /Travel PR News/ — Preferred Hotels & Resorts, the world’s largest independent hotel brand, announces the addition of 25 new member hotels and resorts across eight countries between August and October 2017. From the most iconic city beachfront in Hawaii to the majestic culture and traditions of Rajasthan, India, travelers can now enjoy experiencing #ThePreferredLife in even more destinations while staying at distinctive independent properties around the world.
Highlights of the new hotel additions include:
• Alohilani Resort Waikiki Beach (Honolulu, Hawaii) – Scheduled to formally open in December 2017 after an extensive US$115 million transformation, this 839-room luxury resort will feature breathtaking oceanfront and Diamond Head views, a destination pool deck replete with a saltwater infinity pool and cabanas, and five exciting culinary concepts that includes a signature restaurant, Morimoto Asia, by Iron Chef Morimoto. Guests will be in awe the moment they walk into the hotel lobby and view its centerpiece – a 280,000-gallon saltwater Oceanarium that will be home to a multitude of indigenous marine life.
• Le Bristol Beirut (Beirut, Lebanon) – This elegant award-winning hotel is located in the heart of this vibrant city, known as the “Paris of the Middle East,” and offers 157 themed guestrooms – from modern contemporary and 1960’s retro chic to rich Ottoman Empire-inspired designs that evoke the aura of Arabian nights. When they need to venture outside, travelers will enjoy close proximity to both Verdun Street, one of the city’s most popular shopping destinations, and Hamra Street, the hub of the Beirut’s club scene and vibrant nightlife.
• H10 METROPOLITAN (Barcelona, Spain) – Located in the epicenter of Barcelona’s Eixample District, this beautifully restored 85-room historic hotel designed by Lazaro Rosa-Violan evokes the charm of 19th century industrial Barcelona. Some of the city’s best shopping and dining options in Plaça Catalunya and Les Rambles are a short stroll away, as well as local attractions like UNESCO World Heritage site Sagrada Familia, an unfinished Roman Catholic church designed by Antoni Gaudi. For guests who prefer a more leisurely pace, the hotel offers an outdoor terrace plunge pool replete with sun loungers and picturesque views of its vibrant neighborhood.
• Wanda Reign Wuhan (Wuhan, China) – This award-winning luxury hotel is strategically located in the scenic East Lake Scenic Area of Wuhan, next to the famous Han Street commercial Centre and the iconic Han Show Theatre that regularly showcases a unique collection of aquatic performances. It features 413 elegantly appointed guestrooms with stunning views of the surrounding cityscape and the picturesque East Lake, personalized in-room options including preferred choices of beverage in the mini bar, and in-room fragrances. The hotel also offers one of the best Chinese restaurants in the city, featuring authentic timeless Huaiyang cuisine.
• Shahpura House (Jaipur, Rajasthan, India) – Once the royal palace of the ruling Shekhawat clan of the Rajputs, this magnificent heritage hotel presents a mixture of Mughal and Indian architecture, with intricately carved stone pillars, domes and precious artifacts from a bygone era. Located in a plush residential area of Jaipur, the hotel is flanked by a maze of lanes that offer up their secret stash of colorful stalls, temples, verdant gardens and lakes. The 65 haveli-style guest rooms feature Rajput-inspired decorations embellished with marble and semi-precious stones, and come with private verandahs and modern amenities.
