Shanghai, China (November 04, 2011) /ChinaNewswire.com/ — The world leading luxury hotel brand InterContinental Hotels and Resorts kicks off its Responsible Business Week on October 24 in Greater China. The one-week initiative is designed to celebrate the InterContinental hotels' achievements and on-going efforts to make a world of difference by sustaining and enhancing their local destinations.

Driven by its "In the Know" brand positioning, InterContinental is committed to bringing authentic travel experience to its guests by sharing local knowledge of all that is special about their hotel destinations. And, through a partnership with the National Geographic’s Center for Sustainable Destinations that began in 2009, InterContinental hotels and resorts around the globe have been required to conduct business responsibly by taking actions to respect and protect the destinations’ unique nature, heritage and communities.

Building upon a one-day event last year among employees, InterContinental extended the Responsible Business celebration to one full week by involving guests and the public from across the globe to call for cooperative efforts in protecting and preserving destinations.

The theme for Responsible Business Week in Greater China this year is "Preserving City Memories", which pays homage to the Chinese cities where the 21 InterContinental hotels and resorts are located.

"InterContinental shares with our guests an abiding belief that the most enriching and rewarding travel are derived from authentic experiences," said Keith Barr, chief executive officer of IHG Greater China. "China has such incredibly rich and diverse heritage, and we at InterContinental Hotels and Resorts are so proud to be a part of that, to bear the responsibility of preservation and to encourage more people to join in our efforts."

From October 24th to 30th, all 21 InterContinental hotels and resorts in Greater China celebrated with a series of activities designed to raise awareness of the need to preserve and cherish local heritage.

Responsible Business Week initiatives that have been carried out by InterContinental Hotels and Resorts in Greater China include

InterContinental One Thousand Lake Resort – The hotel brought guests to watch the "Bamboo Horse Dance", a traditional art form since the Ming Dynasty.

InterContinental Shenzhen – The hotel sent staff to Da Peng Gu Cheng, a protected historic village built in 1394, to encourage travelers to join in the efforts to preserve it. It also hosted lectures for hotel guests regarding the preservation of the local mangrove forest and about the birds that inhabit or migrate there every year.

InterContinental Hong Kong – Employee volunteers took 30 children from an orphanage for a visit to the Hong Kong Wetland Park, a world-class ecotourism facility. A "Bedtime Story" card on the park was produced to add to the hotel's current selection of the "In the Know" programme available for hotel guests.

InterContinental brand's efforts were recognised this year when it received a Leadership in Engineering and Environmental Design (LEED) endorsement for Green Engage, an innovative online environmental tool to help hotels monitor, reduce and manage energy as well as water and waste, and awarded the UK Carbon Trust Standard for showing genuine carbon reduction.

Shanghai, China (October 27, 2011) /ChinaNewswire.com/ — The Radisson Blu Hotel Pudong Century Park breaks the mould of the archetypical business and leisure hotel. The Hotel is refreshingly different in every possible way, from minimalistic design concept to Art hospitality philosophy, right down to the chinaware. The immediate impression is one of pure artistry, reinforced by commissioned modern art pieces and 8 themed art exhibitions since 2009. This different approach to upscale accommodation has been achieved without compromising the renowned "Art Hospitality" of the hotel.

Shanghai, as one of the biggest cities in the world, millions of erected walls comprise here forming an indistinguishable cityscape ultimately conforming to an audacious skyline of graffiti art. The most prominent and large scale place for graffiti is Moganshan Lu, a famed road with all kinds of art and galleries by wonderful artists around the world. Unfortunately, the Moganshan Lu graffiti wall will be demolished by the end of the year. But, the end of the Moganshan Lu is not the end of graffiti art in Shanghai. The hotel believes that graffiti art can take place anywhere. After successfully organized 8 art exhibitions, from contemporary Chinese to Dali in the hotel, the Radisson Blu Hotel is now offering a new platform for those artists who are wandering around the city seeking for a new "Moganshan Lu" . Mr. Paul Conquerel, a prolific French graffiti artist resident in Shanghai, has been commissioned to create inspiring graffiti art for the hotel's parking area, which will result the hotel in another eye feast with intense color and thought provoking visions for the hotel guests.

Also, upon the arrival of the Christmas season, the hotel is excited to introduce "Graffiti Art Christmas" which forms part of the graffiti art curriculum. Cozy wooden huts in the probably only traditional Christmas Village in Shanghai with inspiring decorations and a modern touch of graffiti art are a great treat for this year’s Christmas season. Walk throughout the hotel to see large Graffiti art areas showing Christmas themes, the merrymaking and joy starts not just here, be seated around the table in one of the Christmas houses and enjoy your Cheese fondue, dip the bread in the melted cheese and take pleasure in this traditional Swiss feast with your friends in a real artistic Christmas atmosphere, the perfect stage for organizing your Christmas parties or personalized Christmas bazaars.

This special graffiti art program will set a unique ambience for the whole hotel with a great visual impact, inviting guests to discover the spirit within. Experience all this unique hotel has to offer with stylishly designed concept graffiti and art hospitality of the Radisson Blu Hotel Pudong Century Park.

Hilton Huanying offered at 50 hotels in 12 countries

Beijing, China (September 20, 2011) /ChinaNewswire.com/ — – Hilton Hotels & Resorts hosted a national launch event for Hilton Huanying on September 7, 2011 – its tailored experience for all travelers of Chinese origin. The Hilton Worldwide program inspired by the Chinese word for "welcome" enables travelers to book participating hotels with confidence, knowing the properties will meet cultural needs and expectations of Chinese travelers abroad. Fifty hotels in twelve countries representing top destinations for Chinese travelers currently offer the program.

In developing Hilton Huanying, Hilton pairs its expertise as the global leader of hospitality and more than two decades of experience in China with research; feedback from Chinese guests, travel agents and tour operators; and a beta test in the United Kingdom, United States and Korea. Hilton leaders are touring Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou this week as part of a sustained campaign to educate Chinese consumers and tour operators about the new Hilton offering.

"Hilton Huanying is an extension of our brand promise to ensure every guest feels cared for, valued and respected," said Dave Horton, global head, Hilton Hotels & Resorts.

"Hilton Huanying, based on a deep understanding of Chinese culture and lifestyle, provides thoughtful amenities and dedicated services for Chinese tourists during their stay overseas. It’s the real tailor-made 'welcome' red carpet rolling out for Chinese travelers outside of China."

Hilton Huanying extends authentic experiences with amenities, service standards and dedicated Hilton team member training in destinations popular among Chinese visitors including San Francisco, New York City, Hawaii and Vancouver in North America along with London, Tokyo and Sydney. Chinese travelers will find familiar comforts in three key touch points of the on-property experience – arrival, guest room and breakfast at Hilton. Elements of the Hilton Huanying experience include a front desk team member fluent in Mandarin; guest room amenities such as a selection of Chinese teas and teakettles, slippers, and a dedicated television channel with Chinese programmes; and breakfast items including congee, dim sum, fried rice and noodles.
