Hilton has announced the opening of Hilton Yantai, its second Hilton Hotels & Resorts property in the northern coastal city of Yantai.

Occupying levels one to six and levels 26 to 41 of the Shimao Skyscraper, a 323-meter tall building in the heart of the city, Hilton Yantai offers stunning city and sea views, and is surrounded by many historical attractions, including Changyu Wine Culture Museum and Yantaishan Scenic Spot.

“Yantai is one of China’s most quickly developing cities, attracting both business and leisure travellers for its robust economy, picturesque beaches and it has a reputation as one of the top wine producers in the country,” said Sean Wooden, vice president, brand management, Asia Pacific, Hilton.

“The opening of our second Hilton Hotels & Resorts property in Yantai underscores our commitment to providing Hilton’s signature hospitality to guests in the places that matter to them the most.”
