At the press conference held before the road show, Michael Henssler, president of Kempinski China, introduced Kempinski in detail, the long history of the oldest luxury hotel group of Europe, the exclusive European luxury and the belief in exclusive services “From good to Best”.
“Kempinski is a luxury hotel brand with a successful story of more than 100 years. The hotels are either the market leader in their locality, or landmark enterprises of their particular area,” said Mr. Henssler. “They are not a home away from home to guests, but also offer distinctive experiences to them each and every moment, and make their stay in Kempinski a beautiful memory every time.”
Mr. Henssler also highlighted Kempinski’s developments in China in recent years and its aims for the future. “Now in China there are nine Kempinski hotels operating and we have signed agreements for a dozen. These are expected in the following two or three years. We plan to open 30 hotels in China by 2015 and maintain the scale in the following years. Because we believe luxury is limited,” said Mr. Henssler. “China’s luxury market is growing rapidly. Individuality is the fundament of mature luxury. Kempinski was, and is aiming at selective growth and maintaining its commitment to exclusivity and individuality. That is the value of the brand.”
Over the years, Kempinski has developed into an innovative and highly respected collection of luxury properties. Each offers superior standards of service combined with a style reflecting the individuality of the hotel and its location. In China, Kempinski Hotels follows market needs and is recognized as an icon of luxury hotels. Properties in Huizhou, Guiyang, Shanghai and Haitang Bay of Sanya Island are expected to open in 2011.
