The Shangri-La story began in 1971 with our first deluxe hotel in Singapore. Inspired by the legendary land featured in James Hilton’s 1933 novel, Lost Horizon, the name Shangri-La encapsulates the serenity and service for which our hotels and resorts are renowned worldwide.

Today, Hong Kong based Shangri-La Hotels and Resorts is Asia Pacific’s leading luxury hotel group. We are also regarded as one of the world’s finest hotel ownership and management companies. With over 100 hotels and resorts throughout Asia Pacific, North America, the Middle East, and Europe, the Shangri-La group has a room inventory of over 38,000. Together, they come under our key hotel brands – Shangri-La Resorts, Shangri-La Hotels, Traders Hotels, Kerry Hotels and Hotel Jen – to serve the needs of different guests in various regions.

In addition to our hotels and resorts, our experience in managing serviced apartments and residences spans 23 of our hotels across Asia Pacific and the Middle East, combining world-famous hospitality with all the comforts and privacy of home.
