Ruby Hotels’ China JV announces hotel openings
Munich-based Ruby Hotels and China’s Betterwood Hotel Group are expanding their joint venture, Ruby Asia Hotels Ltd, which was established in 2018.
Hotels in Shanghai, Chengdu and Hangzhou, among others, are in final planning or already under construction.
The Ruby Asia Hotels Ltd joint venture plans to also add locations in Zhuhai, Haiyan, Wulumuqi, Xining, and Nanjing.
"We are delighted that our partnership with Betterwood Hotel Group continues to bear fruit", said Fabian Zellinger, responsible for Asia expansion at Ruby.
"These new openings underline our goal to rapidly expand Ruby’s presence in Asia."
Most of the hotels are existing properties that are being converted under the guidance of Ruby’s design team.
All follow Ruby’s brand philosophy: a location in the heart of the city, top design, and quality amenities with the essentials.
All hotels are scheduled to open next year.
Pre-opening and operations are the responsibility of Ruby Asia Hotels Ltd.
