Thai operator Dusit Fudu Hotels and Resorts is set to manage a hotel in China’s Shandong province in early 2018, complete with an extensive destination wellness centre.

Owned by Zaozhuang Thai Cultural City Development, the Dusit Thani Thai Cultural City Resort Zaozhuang will contain 257 bedrooms and will be Thai-focused in its design. Dhevanand is the architecture company involved in the resort’s conception and the interior design firm enlisted on the project is Leo International Design Group.

The resort’s wellness centre will feature infrared heated cabins, laconium and salt saunas, a hot sand bath, an ice fountain room, a vitality pool, a nano bubble pool, mineral springs pools, an oxygen spa suite and an indoor swimming pool. A spokesperson for Dusit told Spa Opportunities that the supplier of the thermal zone has not yet been confirmed.

The comprehensive wet zone will be complemented by Thai-inspired massage treatments, curated by Dusit’s Devarana Spa brand.

As part of a mixed-use commercial complex, the resort will offer Thai retail brands, cultural performances and tours at the Buddhist cultural centre.
