It is said that the most uncomfortable thing is that you can't get it, and you have lost it. Some hotels that we call out when we have time to punch in, delisted and announced permanent closure.
It's as if someone pressed the time fast forward button and let them "whew" out of our sight.
After the editorial group of the hotel circle expressed this feeling, everyone expressed that they would like to make a comment.
So, shall we go?
Beijing
Chang 'an Street West Hotel
2019 65438+1October 3 1, the w hotel on Chang' an street in Beijing sent off the last batch of guests, which also marked the surplus of w brand in Beijing.
Chang 'an Street West was formerly Gloria Hotel, and its financial loss from opening to closing exceeded 100 million yuan. After the reconstruction, COFCO placed high hopes on W, and started round after round of high-profile preheating before officially welcoming guests, but it was once ridiculed by the group as "the worst W hotel in China".
To tell the truth, W Hotel on Chang 'an Avenue has been in a dilemma since its opening. Most importantly, it is bound by its geographical location-
The Second Ring Road has Tiananmen Square in the west, Embassy District in the east and Beijing Railway Station in the south, which is a prime location in terms of geographical location. However, the official positioning of W brand is "lifestyle", and the "W" in the guest's impression is often synonymous with youth, trendy, cool and unusual, as is the W Hotel on Chang 'an Avenue.
Whether it is flowing dynamic lighting, bold installation space, or the concept of "Yaodong imperial city that never sleeps" in the top lounge, it presents a unique painting style that is incompatible with the surrounding areas (administrative areas-centralized government agencies). So at that time, many people ridiculed that W should be placed in Sanlitun.
The disagreement between the owner and the brand in design, operation and many other aspects, as well as the frequent complaints about service quality and the serious injury of hardware facilities, have also laid the groundwork for the difficulties of the hotel road.
Until the loss withdrew, ending a W era in Beijing.
Shanghai
Four Seasons Hotel Pudong
Following the news that the Four Seasons Hotel in Puxi, Shanghai was closed for renovation this year, the Four Seasons Hotel in Pudong, Shanghai also released information that the cooperation between the owner and the brand ended on May 15, which means that the people of Shanghai will usher in a period with four distinct seasons.
Pudong Four Seasons, located in Lujiazui, opened in 20 12, and it has been eight years. There is an indoor infinite swimming pool of 18m, which is called "the most beautiful sky pool in Magic Capital". Yes, it is the one with Bond in the movie "007: Breaking the Sky".
The hotel with 187 rooms is also the favorite shooting place of many fashion media, with countless celebrities and conferences.
According to the internal open letter, the card replacement was not affected by the COVID-19 epidemic, but a friendly measure to reach an agreement with the owner Shanghai 2 1 Century Hotel Co., Ltd. after the contract expired.
The jewel-box-like four seasons in Pudong, whether in internal vision or supporting services, are generally very good, and friends who have been there basically feel that it is worth turning back.
If you are a student who hasn't had time to punch in, you can add the Regent Shanghai Pudong to the wish list after the hotel renovation, which should be worth looking forward to as the world premiere after IHG acquired the Regent Hotel.
Chongqing
World Financial Center langham place hotel
From London 1865 Langham Place Hotel to now, Langham Place's luxury brand is beyond doubt. Before each opening, a group of loyal guests can't wait to start booking in official website.
Langham Place, originally intended to be a landmark landscape in Jie Fangbei, started from the 58F floor of the World Financial Center. It is not difficult to see from the official photos that the decoration design is also in accordance with the consistent style of Langham Place.
Surprisingly, the owner, Hua Xun, quickly broke up with the brand before opening and replaced it with a local brand, Li Sirui.
Even the restaurant "Tang Ge", which originally had Michelin genes, has been renamed "Peng Ge" and later joined Hyatt. An operation surprised the spectators, which was an eventful autumn.
Although the specific reason for changing the card is unknown, fortunately, Langham in Chongqing can't punch in, but Hyatt's bid is also worth a visit. After all, whether it's the floor-to-ceiling view of a hotel room or the 70F Wings Bar, you can enjoy the scenery of the mountain city from an invincible perspective.
New York
Addison Hotel Times Square
This year, a large number of hotels were closed due to the epidemic, especially abroad. The Addison Hotel in Times Square in new york also announced its permanent closure last month.
Addison vividly demonstrated the concept of "garden in the city". It looks utopian and comfortable against the backdrop of tropical green plants, and whether in public space or in guest rooms, Addison has applied colors to the extreme, and styles such as ivory, dark green, crimson and sapphire can be seen everywhere.
Different from other hotels in some years, Addison, which opened in February, 2065438+2009, has a superior geographical position and only welcomed guests in one and a half years, which can be said to be a magnificent and short-lived mark of the times.
According to related reports, Addison had a financial crisis long before the outbreak. The outbreak of the epidemic caused the hotel business travelers to drop sharply and the occupancy rate was low, which aggravated the deadlock of cash shortage.
Japan
Fushijianzhuang
Speaking of Japanese The Old Inn, Fuji Jianzhuang, located in Pu Jun, Aichi Prefecture, is one of the best, and there are hot springs by the sea.
Since 1956, a 40-room hotel, the room condition of 100% OCC is also very common, because it often receives group guests (especially China).
After the outbreak began, it had a great impact on Fuji Kanzhuang, and most guests chose to cancel their reservations.
In February this year, this unsustainable hotel filed for bankruptcy with the Nagoya District Court, which was the first hotel in Japan to close down due to the epidemic. There is no rush to travel to Japan, and the hotel is quite old because of its age, so it can only be closed.
London
Sholdich Ace Hotel
The impact of the epidemic on the service industry is still widespread. On September 1 1, the news that the ACE Hotel in Shoreditch, London was permanently closed was the biggest disappointment in recent days.
ACE HOTEL is an outstanding cool brand among the minority design hotels. Its non-replicability and anti-standardization make the hotel listed as "worth looking forward to" or "the best design" by the media every year. It is also the favorite place of a new generation. In ACE, it's not as simple as staying for one night.
This one in London was opened on 20 13, and it was the first show of ACE after leaving the United States. Founder Alex Calderwoo also died in this hotel in 20 13.
ACE in London inherited the local historical customs and humanistic charm, but it also brought its own little rebellious character-"embracing taste and not catering to dignitaries".
Simple and clean wooden bedstead and sometimes bare movie lighting reveal a strong retro industrial style in details, which distinguishes it from other luxury hotels and attracts many artists and design masters to visit after its opening.
I sincerely hope that it is only a temporary farewell, and I will have the opportunity to see Ace again in London in the future!
In addition to the above, some hotels have been crossed off the check-in list because of delisting or closure.
