In line with Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts’ strategy to expand its presence in Asia’s most important cities, it has partnered with Yuan Lih Group to launch Four Seasons Hotel Taipei. Ideally located in the Xinyi District in a 31-storey building, the hotel is directly opposite Taipei 101, one of the top tourist attractions in the city, which houses high-end shopping, art galleries, and offices as well as the Taiwan Stock Exchange Corporation and other major banks and organisations. While no exact date has been given for the launch, construction has already begun with international architectural firm RSHP at its helm. Surrounded by expansive glass panelling on both sides of the tower, the highest floors will offer wraparound views of the city and mountain ranges on the horizon. Supporting biodiversity with local vegetation species, the building design targets the Taiwan Green Building Rating Gold and a minimum LEED silver. Upon completion, the property will boast 260 rooms with both city and mountain views. Dining venues at the hotel will include a high-end Chinese restaurant, destination bar, speciality restaurant, all-day restaurant, pool bar and lobby lounge.
