Amari Yangshuo, ONYX Hospitality Group’s first Amari hotel in China, was topped off recently. The construction and development of this 73-room property is progressing on schedule, with plans for opening in the first half of 2017.
As the ancient Chinese saying goes, “The landscape of Guilin is the most beautiful in the world, but the landscape of Yangshuo is the most beautiful in Guilin.”
Amari Yangshuo, calling this beautiful city home, stands right next to the popular West Street, one of the oldest streets in Guilin, Guangxi, with direct views of the waterfront, the iconic love bridge and karst peaks all round. This four-storey hotel combines local Oriental influences with Thai-style design and is developed by Shenzhen Yitian Group Co., Ltd. as part of the exciting Yitian West Street development. The hotel will be managed by ONYX Hospitality Group as an Amari property.
