LOS ANGELES, CA — May 15, 2019 — CallisonRTKL was honored at the Asia Pacific Property Awards in the Marriot Marquis Queen’s Park, Bangkok, Thailand on May 14th for the firm’s work on the Grand Hyatt Xi’an. CRTKL competed against the best property professionals across the Asia Pacific regions to be recognized in the architecture category.
For the project, Xi’an Maike International tasked CallisonRTKL to design a five-star destination hotel and office tower complex that celebrates everything iconic in the historic Chinese city. The towering jewel of the Central Business District, Grand Hyatt Xi’an is part of CallisonRTKL’s larger Xi’an Maike Business Center design. The luxury hotel features the elegance and modern comfort of the Grand Hyatt brand and creates a gateway to the new Xi’an. The sophisticated and iconic design style creates a bold and impressionable moment for guests.
In addition to the Grand Hyatt Xi’an, the Maike Business Center project includes Maike’s Xi’an headquarters office tower that echoes the hotel. At its base, it includes a range of shopping, dining and entertainment options that create an unforgettable experience for office workers, hotel guests and the community.
The Asia Pacific Property Awards are judged by an independent panel of more than 80 industry experts. Judging focuses on design, quality, service, innovation, originality and commitment to sustainability.
“Winning this award is a great honor and an opportunity to showcase the diversity of the firm’s work for Xi’an and throughout the world,” says Clay Markham, CallisonRTKL senior vice president.
