Meliá Hotels International has announced the addition of its 11th hotel in China, and the first in Asia for its exclusive luxury brand The Meliá Collection. The hotel will be located in the region of Arxan, often referred to as the ‘Chinese Alps’, in the northeast of Inner Mongolia. The destination has the largest area of forest per person in the entire country and one of the most unspoilt and diverse natural environments, full of dense forests, springs, volcanic landscapes, lakes and glaciers. The Meliá Collection consists of a carefully selected collection of luxury hotels that embody an independent spirit and an unmistakable sense of place. Designed as a mountain retreat, the hotel is scheduled to open in 2026 with 44 luxury villas and more than 90 rooms, as well as a restaurant, several meeting rooms and wellness facilities. The hotel will form part of a larger collection of facilities alongside the future Meliá Arxan Ski and Hot Spring Resort. The hotel is near two ski resorts making it an unbeatable location for mountain and winter sports. Arxan is also famous for offering almost 50 hot springs. Leisure facilities in the destination therefore include numerous spas, many of them within walking distance of the hotel. This Meliá Collection hotel will allow the company to offer a higher level of luxury to the most discerning travellers, with the resort offering all the comforts and amenities required to enjoy the destination experience to the full.
