To be located in the “Chinese Alps’’ of Arxan, Meliá Hotels International has announced its 11th hotel in China, and the first in Asia for its exclusive luxury brand, the Meliá Collection. The hotel says in a press statement that, designed as a mountain retreat, it is scheduled to open in 2026 with 44 luxury villas and a total of more than 90 rooms, as well as a restaurant, several meeting rooms and wellness facilities.

The statement says that when combined with the upcoming Meliá Arxan Ski and Hot Spring Resort, which the business unveiled in 2019, the hotel will be a part of a larger collection of amenities. The statement adds that with the resort providing all the comforts and services necessary to fully enjoy the destination experience, this Meliá Collection hotel will enable the company to provide a greater degree of luxury to the most discerning guests.

‘‘The recovery of tourism in China is obviously a stimulus for us to continue our growth in the country,’’ says Ignacio Martín, Managing Director Asia Pacific at Meliá Hotels International. According to data released by China’s Ministry of Culture and Tourism, during the May Day holiday period in 2023, a total of 274 million domestic trips were made in China, 119.09 pc more than in the same period in 2019. Millions of Chinese tourists are expected to travel to domestic and international destinations once again throughout 2023. “With this in mind, we will continue to work on consolidating our brands and increasing our presence in the market to make Meliá an increasingly better known brand among Chinese domestic and international travellers,’’ says Martín.​

The hotel says that it is near two ski resorts that have snow for seven months of the year, making it an unbeatable location for mountain and winter sports. Arxan is renowned for having around 50 hot springs in addition to the amazing environment. As a result, the area’s leisure options include a wide variety of spas, many of which are close to the hotel. The Arxan National Forest Park, another major attraction in the area, is home to some of China’s best-preserved volcanic formations as well as stunning lakes and hot springs.

The press statement adds that the chosen destination has the largest area of forest per person in the entire country and one of the most unspoilt and diverse natural environments, full of dense forests, springs, volcanic landscapes, lakes and glaciers.
