The agreement will lead to the opening of the first Artyzen Hotels and Resorts luxury lifestyle hotel in Xi'an, China. This marks AHG's debut in China's ancient capital and the continuation of its purposeful growth strategy. Artyzen Xi'an will join 17 other Artyzen properties across the Asia Pacific region to promote the development of the cultural tourism economy. Shun Tak Group Hospitality division president and executive director Rogier Verhoeven said: "As the inaugural city of the national 'one belt and one road' initiative, Xi'an's significance as a historical centre and a hub for innovation makes it an ideal location for Artyzen Hotels and Resorts. We are committed and confident that this project will become Xi'an's landmark cultural tourism destination." AHG vice-president in China Sunny Li likewise remarked: "We are delighted to partner with Xi'an Yang's Real Estate and contribute to the growth of Xi'an's hospitality sector. We are looking forward to creating an immersive guest experience celebrating Xi'ans unique cultural heritage and its modern charm."

Luxury hotels in Riyadh and Dubai have fastest Wi-Fi networks in MENA: Ookla

Representative Image New research by Ookla® a global leader in connectivity intelligence, reveals that luxury hotels in Riyadh and Dubai are setting new benchmarks for high-speed internet connectivity, with some of the fastest Wi-Fi networks in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). The research, based on Speedtest Intelligence® data, assessed Wi-Fi performance at 22 top-rated five-star hotels and resorts across the region, identifying exceptional performers and highlighting regional trends in digital connectivity. As travelers increasingly rely on high-speed internet, hotels that prioritise Wi-Fi infrastructure can significantly enhance guest satisfaction and loyalty. The analysis, based on data from October 2023 to October 2024, categorised hotel Wi-Fi performance into three tiers. Top performers encompassed hotels with a median download speed exceeding 100 Mbps, capable of supporting multiple 4K streams, ultra-fast downloads, and lag-free video conferencing. Four Seasons in Riyadh, Raffles the Palm, and Jumeirah Mina Al Salam, both in Dubai, top the list with median download speeds of 154.75 Mbps, 122.82 Mbps, and 121.35 Mbps, respectively. The second group, which were good performers, included hotels with a median download speed between 50 Mbps and 100 Mbps. Download speeds ranged from just over 50 Mbps at Raffles and Fairmont in Doha to 93.70 Mbps at Rixos Sharm El Sheikh in Egypt. Other notable properties in this group include Burj Al Arab and the Royal Atlantis in Dubai, as well as other hotels in Muscat and Marrakesh. Performance laggards include hotels and resorts with a median download speed below 50 Mbps. Over 45 percent of the properties reviewed fall under this category. While suitable for single high-definition to 4K streaming, this speed has potential limitations, particularly during peak usage. Notably, a few 5-star hotels in Abu Dhabi and Muscat had a median download speed below 15 Mbps. “To assess Wi-Fi performance, we benchmarked median download speeds inside and around the properties over one year. This allowed us to evaluate network performance and stability across hotels with varying occupancy levels and guest profiles. We focused on the most commonly used guest Wi-Fi networks and excluded those specific to events like sporting competitions,” said Karim Yaici, Lead Industry Analyst for the Middle East and Africa at Ookla. While Gulf countries generally have high-speed internet infrastructure and top the Speedtest Global Index™, the subpar performance of some hotels in the region suggests potential issues with Wi-Fi configurations, and not with the capacity of the broadband connection. “The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the demand for seamless internet access, with tourists and business travelers expecting high-speed Wi-Fi for work and leisure. In line with this, cities such as Dubai and Abu Dhabi have significantly invested in their network infrastructure to meet these elevated expectations of digital nomads and professionals,” added Yaici. With a commitment to empowering consumers and businesses with network intelligence to drive digital innovation and connectivity, Ookla helps hospitality property managers design Wi-Fi networks as well as monitor and optimise their performance.

In January, Milan’s vibrant scene will be further enlivened as German designer Philip Plein unveils The Plein Hotel, a playful 13-room property with the mantra ‘your hotel, your rules’, where gastronomic dining and nightlife take centre stage. The Goethe Hotel becomes Rome’s latest one-of-a-kind property in February, paying homage to writer Johann Wolfgang von Goethe and his ‘Italian Journey’. Fusing classic Roman architecture and contemporary design, the hotel is a stone’s throw from iconic landmarks, Trevi Fountain, Piazza di Spagna, and Villa Borghese. Opening in January 2025, Park Lane Copenhagen gives Copenhagen's seriously stylish hospitality scene a facelift. Overlooking the gardens of Øregård Park and minutes from the sea in Copenhagen’s northern quarter, the 69-room property features a chic all-white palette and provides a unique wine experience. In April 2025, the ultra-luxury Hermes Galapagos Mega Catamaran sets sail, offering an unrivalled exploration of the Galapagos Islands. The state-of-the-art vessel accommodates up to 20 guests in 12 opulent suites, each featuring private balconies and jacuzzis. Barrington's Hotel & Residences in Almancil, Portugal, will also open in April. Guests can enjoy the rebirth of this 31-key Vale do Lobo local legend building which has been transformed into a 5-star property with easy access to Algarve’s golf facilities, beaches and outdoor activities. Laguna Coast Resort opens in Naxos, Greece, in May 2025 and is one of 21 additions to SLH’s actively sustainable Considerate Collection. The luxury eco-retreat overlooks the serene Laguna area and is surrounded by pristine nature, ancient landmarks, and the Aegean Sea. It’s a perfect base for guests to explore the area's rich biodiversity, from seasonal wetlands to migratory bird habitats and cultural treasures like the Temple of Apollo. The famed Levantine Hill Estate, in the heart of the Yarra Valley, will open a stunning new boutique hotel complex, Levantine Hill Hotel, in June 2025. Designed by Fender Katsalidis architects to fit naturally within the landscape, the hotel will be the perfect blend of luxury and comfort. Other Notable Additions SLH welcomes the iconic Kozmo Hotel Suites & Spa and Boho Hotel Budapest (opened December 2024) into Budapest's evolving luxury hotel scene. SLH ventures into more experiential properties, introducing four Tanzanian properties - Siringit Villa in Usa River, Siringit Serengeti Camp in Seronera, Siringit Migration Camp in Kogatende and Xanadu Luxury Villas & Retreat in Zanzibar, all providing a dream safari & beach itinerary. SLH’s growth isn’t limited just to its impressive hotel signings. In October 2024, SLH launched its revamped customer loyalty programme, SLH Club, followed swiftly by a new app in November 2024, which offers guests a seamless and faster reservation process and innovative features such as integrated route guidance. SLH’s exclusive strategic partnership with Hilton continues to flourish as it welcomes more participating SLH hotels into the programme in early December, taking it to over 400 SLH hotels available on all Hilton direct booking channels, including Hilton.com and the Hilton Honors app. These notable developments have demonstrably fuelled growth, resulting in a 9% increase in revenue across all channels compared to 2023, marking the most successful year in SLH’s history.

Namia River Retreat in Vietnam has become the latest addition to Small Luxury Hotels of the World's eco-conscious Considerate Collection. Located along the banks of the Thu Bon River in Hoi An, Namia River Retreat is slated to open on 15th December 2025. Nestled amid lush vegetation and tranquil waters, the luxury resort makes the most of its position, with beautiful pools that overlook the shimmering river, an experience grounded in wellbeing, and the cultural treasures of Hoi An within easy reach. An exquisite approach to environmental awareness Like other properties in the SLH Considerate Collection, Namia River Retreat prides itself on centering its operations on an ethos driven by a love of nature. Using mangroves as a retaining wall instead of concrete reinforcements, Namia River Retreat fully regenerated an eroded islet quite literally from the ground up. Bio-climactic architecture was included in the building plans, the energy-efficient lighting throughout prioritises protecting the night sky, and the grounds are landscaped entirely with indigenous plants and a bio-pond to encourage birds, bees and butterflies to flourish naturally. Product packaging used here is made from local banana leaves, straws are locally made from rice flour, and there are custom-designed water fountains around the resort for guests to refill their drink bottles. There are also bamboo bicycles and electric buggies to borrow, alongside a complimentary shuttle-boat service to Hoi An’s central market. Wildlife conservation tours to the nearby Son Tra peninsula to visit the protected yellow-hair monkeys are also on offer. What is the SLH Considerate Collection? Launched in 2021, the Considerate Collection celebrates the environmentally-led efforts made by SLH’s actively sustainable luxury hotels and has since doubled in members, continuing to inspire positive impact with every stay. These pioneering properties prove that luxury is compatible with longevity, as they are places that travellers can explore and experience with intention, whilst protecting the integrity of the location and its inhabitants.
