Kempinski has signed an agreement with Shanghai An Shun Real Estate to manage Kempinski Residences Hongqiao, its third property in China’s largest city. These should open later this year.

They are near to Hongqiao Airport, Shanghai’s domestic airport, and convenient to Pudong International Airport. Set in grounds covering 11,700 m2, there are a total of 212 luxurious residences ranging in size from one to three bedrooms, plus a very limited number of four and six bedroom residences, which will be available for long term rental.

The design is by Shanghai East Architecture Designing with interior design by DiLeonardo International.

Kempinski’s Senior Vice President China, René Schmitt, is delighted with this possibility to strengthen Kempinski’s presence in Shanghai, ‘With the city’s premier private residences at Forty One Hengshan Road, in the diplomatic district, the recent signature of Kempinski Hotel Shanghai in the Puxi district and now the Kempinski Residences Hongqiao, Kempinski is going from strength to strength in Shanghai and, indeed, in China.’
