Hilton Worldwide has opened its newest hotel in Jiaxing, China. Doubletree by Hilton Jiaxing is the brand’s 16th property in China, as well as the first internationally branded full-service hotel in Jiaxing.
Located in the city centre, close to key business and shopping areas, the new property is situated 7.5 km from Jiaxing Railway Station, and 17.5 km from the city’s high-speed train hub, making it convenient for travellers to travel to nearby Chinese cities such as Shanghai and Hangzhou.

“Jiaxing does not only have a huge cultural significance in China and beautiful scenery, but it is also uniquely located between the major cities of Shanghai, Hangzhou and Suzhou,” said Bruce McKenzie, senior vice president of operations, Greater China & Mongolia, Hilton Worldwide.

Guests staying in executive rooms are also entitled to use the hotel’s club lounge, which offers complimentary breakfast, snacks and refreshments throughout the day.
