Mrs. Karen Li, Executive Director of Lanson Place, said: “We are delighted to partner with Beijing Capital Land on this key development project, which features such an outstanding geographical advantage. We believe that this partnership is yet another testament to our strong brand reputation in quality hospitality services in the PRC, established through our success in operating the Lanson Place Central Park Residences in Beijing and the Lanson Place Jinlin Tiandi Residences in Shanghai. It will also pave the way for future business expansion in the high-end serviced residence management industry in China by participating in more quality development projects.”
Mr. Marc Hediger, Chief Executive Officer of Lanson Place, said: “This project is our second management contract in Beijing and the tenth property under our management in Asia.
