Wanda Reign elevates Wuhan hospitality

GRAND rivers, great lakes, a vibrant city, historic attractions, a food paradise — Wuhan has a lot going
for it.

The capital city of Hubei Province in central China is divided by the Yangtze and Hanjiang rivers into three major districts — Wuchang, Hankou and Hanyang. A national transport hub, Wuhan connects people from all over the world.

Wanda Reign Wuhan, the top luxury brand hotel of Wanda Hotels & Resorts, is among the three hotel brands launched by the parent chain. At the East Lake Scenic Area of Wuhan, Wanda Reign Wuhan, with its beautiful scenic views, perfect location and complete conference and room facilities, is an ideal choice for MICE groups (meetings, incentives, conferences and exhibitions).

Wuhan has taken advantage of its central China location to become a busy national hub for flights and high-speed trains. There are flights to Hong Kong everyday and it takes only 90 minutes to reach it and other major cities in China such as Shanghai. The high-speed train makes the city convenient to reach, as it takes about five hours to get to Wuhan, whether you’re going from Shanghai, Beijing, Guangzhou or Shenzhen.

Wanda Reign Wuhan is 45 minutes from Wuhan Tianhe Airport by car and 15 minutes from the Wuhan high-speed railway station.

The hotel has comfortable surroundings with nearby Han shopping street, Wanda Plaza, Han Show, Wanda Movie Park, Madame Tussaud’s Museum and other entertainment sites. Among them, the Han Show and Wanda Movie Park will be the latest entertainment options.

It is an electrifying show inspired by the culture of Han Dynasty (206BC-AD220) and Wuhan. It brings the audience a splendid sensory experience with moving seats, flying LED screens and huge stage pool. Wanda Movie Park features six movie-themed facilities including 4D theater, 5D theater and flight theater. People can ride on the time machine or travel in the space. Both of them will be open to public at the end of this year.

With a total construction area of 70,000 square meters, Wanda Reign Wuhan is decorated with imported marble and high-end crystal, presenting a strong feeling of luxury and spaciousness. The giant relief fresco in the lobby, 10 meters high and 60 meters long, is sculpted with white marble, Chinese jade and portopo. The image is inspired by the amazing view of Wuhan East Lake, known as the biggest city lake in China.

The 1,500-square-meter pillarless grand ballroom and seven function rooms are equipped with systems for simultaneous interpretation and digital video conferencing.

With 413 luxurious rooms and suites, the hotel offers what it calls the “Bed of Reign,” which is handcrafted by experts with pure New Zealand woolen felt and US latex for a luxurious sleeping experience. The soft and smooth cotton cream–colored fabric makes the mattress gentle and permeable to air ventilation.

All the rooms and suites are enhanced by high-tech facilities such as interactive TV, electronic cats’ eyes, smart lighting systems and automatic toilets. The presidential suite, decorated with deluxe and priceless collections such as embroidery with gold foil on silk, cloisonné artistic ornaments, and copper artwork, perfectly expresses the royal style.

The upscale property uses the luxury brand Hermes as an amenity in Executive rooms and suites, elevating Wuhan’s luxury hotels into another level.

There are three restaurants with different cuisines that will cater to people from all around the world. An international buffet and a la carte is offered at Café Reign; the original flavors of Huaiyang cuisine combined with the essence of Cantonese and local dishes are served in the River Drunk Huaiyang Restaurant; and exquisite and contemporary cuisine infused with both Japanese and French styles are provided in HE Japanese Restaurant. The restaurants provide special private chef services as well as sommeliers in both wine and Chinese liquor.

On the top floor of the hotel, Club Reign provides distinguished members exclusive services and a gathering place to relax.

“It would be a good choice to refresh yourself in the hotel by experiencing the luxury in the room, relaxing in the massage chair, loosening your nerves with the East Lake view, delighting your taste buds with Huaiyang cuisine, international buffet or British afternoon tea,” said Boris Blobel, general manager of Wanda Reign Wuhan. “In Wuhan, there is always more for you to discover.”

As the brand of elegance, extravagance and excellence, the hotel presents unique services to its guests. The Imperial Welcome takes care of guests, including driving them in a Bentley from the airport or train station. Reign Butler combines Chinese hospitality and British butler traditions to serve guests in a tailored room setup that can include cuisine suggestions, arranging of a schedule and a shopping guide throughout the stay, just like a personal assistant. Gallery of Reign is a perfect place to enjoy the presentation of rare antique or world-class artworks.
