\"\"<\/a>JIA Shanghai has earned a prestigious spot on Travel + Leisure magazine’s ‘It List 2008’ of the world’s top 30 new hotels.<\/p>\n

Opened last year, JIA Shanghai is the only hotel in China included in the annual international accolades.<\/p>\n

Travel + Leisure heralded JIA Shanghai for bringing “a much-needed dose of boutique intimacy to the city’s booming hotel scene”.<\/p>\n

The trio of up-and-coming designers who crafted the eclectic Asian-contemporary interiors \u2013 Andre Fu, BURO Architects and Darryl Goveas \u2013 were singled out for creating “a well-choreographed hideaway of dark wood floors, richly embroidered fabrics, and elegant birdcages, which sit alongside Knoll and Moroso furniture”<\/p>\n

The judges added: “Given how frenetic Shanghai is, we loved the property’s host of cozy amenities: well-stocked marble kitchenettes, in-room board games, and help-yourself (complementary) tea and bottled water. There’s even free Wi-Fi \u2013 still a luxury among upscale properties.”<\/p>\n

Recognition by Travel + Leisure follows hot-on-the-heels of JIA Shanghai’s recent nomination on the highly coveted annual Cond\u00e9 Nast Traveler “Hot List” of the hottest new hotels, restaurants and spas around the world.<\/p>\n

In a 1920’s building on fashionable West Nanjing Road, the 55-room JIA Shanghai is nominated on Travel + Leisure’s ‘It List’ in such prestigious Asia company as Peninsula Tokyo, Banyan Tree Maldives and St. Regis, Singapore.<\/p>\n

Internationally, it ranks alongside luxury properties including The Plaza, New York, Mandarin Oriental Riviera Maya in Mexico and The Connaught, London.<\/p>\n
