LAST Sunday Hilton announced the opening of the Hilton Shenzhen World Exhibition & Convention Center, the largest comprehensive convention and exhibition center in Asia Pacific and the only hotel directly connected to the Shenzhen World Exhibition & Convention Center. The hotel is owned by Shenzhen Zhaohua International Exhibition Development Co. and managed by Hilton.

Located in the heart of the thriving Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, the hotel is situated 18 kilometers from Shenzhen International Airport and is easily accessible to some of the city’s most popular attractions such as Waterlands Resorts, the Shenzhen Bao’an Xiwan Mangrove Wetland Park and Fenghuang Hill Forest Park.

The new hotel features 325 contemporary and stylish guestrooms and suites with spectacular views of the harbor or city, well suited for business travelers and for families on vacation. Guests can enjoy well-equipped amenities including a 55-inch LED TV with international channels, an ergonomic and spacious working area, and the hotel’s high-speed Internet. Guests in the executive rooms or suites have exclusive access to the Executive Lounge, where they can enjoy private check-in and check-out and are provided with breakfast and all-day refreshments.

In response to evolving consumer expectations, the Hilton Shenzhen World Exhibition & Convention Center has implemented the Hilton CleanStay Program. Building on the already high standards of housekeeping and hygiene at Hilton properties, Hilton CleanStay focuses on an enhanced level of cleanliness visible to guests throughout their entire stay.

The hotel features four restaurants and bars which ensure opportunities for guests to enjoy a variety of pleasant dining experiences through a range of culinary offerings. Kitchencraft is an all-day dining restaurant which offers creative, local interpretations of regional Asian cuisine, Western grills and fresh seafood, with live cooking experiences in a contemporary setting. NoDu is modern with a local vibe, where guests can have a full view of the art of noodle and dumpling making, observing the chefs’ culinary talents at interactive counters. Qingya provides a Chinese fine dining option in the hotel. The Lobby Lounge is an ideal rendezvous for gatherings and drinks.

Guests seeking exercise or relaxation can enjoy facilities that includes a fitness center which is open 24 hours a day, and two swimming pools.

The hotel features 2,900 square meters of flexible meeting and banquet facilities and 21 separate spaces including a 1,350-square-meter pillar-free Grand Ballroom with a 9-meter-high ceiling. Clients can choose a spectacular venue with advanced audio-visual equipment for business meetings, events and weddings.

The Hilton Shenzhen World Exhibition & Convention Center is also part of Hilton Honors, the award-winning guest-loyalty program for Hilton’s 18 distinct hotel brands. To celebrate the hotel’s opening, Hilton Honors members will earn an additional 1,000 Points per night — up to a maximum of 3,000 Hilton Honors Points from now through June 30 when booking directly with Hilton.(Tang Li)
