A Landmark Debut in Suzhou

Located in the heart of Jiangsu Province, China, the opening of Four Seasons Hotel Suzhou marked a successful partnership between Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts and Sun Hung Kai Properties. Together, they blended Suzhou’s rich heritage with the elegance and sophistication of modern luxury. Set beside the peaceful Jinji Lake, the hotel offers a resort-like setting that feels both exclusive and serene.

An Event That Captivated Suzhou

To commemorate this milestone, our China-based event planning team led the launch of an unforgettable opening ceremony. We welcomed a distinguished guest list that included government officials, property executives, VIP clients, and media. Notable attendees included Suzhou Deputy Mayor Zha Yingdong, New World Development representatives, and Rami Sayess, President of Hotel Operations, Asia Pacific at Four Seasons.

From Vision to Reality: A Seamless Celebration

We guided every stage of the event, from creative concept to flawless execution. First, vibrant Lion Dances brought energy to the stage. Then, the ribbon-cutting and eye-dotting ceremonies added meaningful cultural symbolism. Guests enjoyed a refined luncheon accompanied by elegant dance acts and a live jazz band, enhancing the celebratory mood.

Precision Behind the Scenes

Behind the scenes, our event team managed every operational detail. We coordinated on-site logistics, ensured perfect timing, and maintained smooth communication throughout. As the celebration unfolded, it reflected our passion for creating immersive, high-end experiences. More than just a hotel opening, the event positioned Four Seasons Hotel Suzhou as a new icon of luxury, culture, and collaboration.
