Millennium Hotels and Resorts (MHR) was recently conferred “Best International Hotel Management Group of China” at the 2021 AHF Asia Hotel and Travel Forum Annual Meeting and 16th China Hotel Starlight Awards Ceremony. The event, which was held in Shanghai, China, also saw MHR win at the property level, with Millennium Resort Wuyishan listed among the “Top 10 Resort Hotels of China”.

A total of 250 hotels and hospitality groups took part in this year’s awards. For the “Best International Hotel Management Groups of China” category, judges reviewed the company’s reputation and size of its hotel portfolio, among other criteria. MHR joins an illustrious list of hotel groups including Accor, Marriott International, Hyatt and Shangri-La Hotels & Resorts, who were previously accorded this prestigious award. To clinch its spot among China’s top ten resorts, Millennium Resort Wuyishan was shortlisted from a list of 30 hotels.

“As an international hotel group that has been in the Chinese market for more than ten years, Millennium Hotels and Resorts is honoured to receive these awards. We have always made it our main focus to provide high-quality services and these two awards affirm the confidence that the Chinese market has in us,” said MHR North Asia Senior Vice President Mr Lawrence Yip.



Millennium Resort Wuyishan was ranked among China’s Top 10 Resort Hotels. The resort opened in 2019, and is in the UNESCO World Cultural and Natural Heritage site, near the Wuyi Mountain Range.

Millennium Resort Wuyishan is MHR’s tenth hotel in Mainland China and opened in 2019. It is set in China’s fourth UNESCO World Cultural and Natural Heritage site. Close to the famous Wuyishan Scenic Zone, the hotel has 205 beautifully-furnished rooms and suites and 11 villas. Apart from enjoying a luxurious stay while visiting the scenic sights of the city, guests can also relax and rejuvenate at the outdoor Olympic-sized swimming pool, or hold events, with over 1,175 sqm of meeting space, including an 850 sqm pillarless banquet hall.
