Maqo is a new premium lifestyle brand added to the portfolio of Hong Kong-based hospitality group Wharf Hotels. It joins sister brands Niccolo Hotels and Marco Polo Hotels.
Maqo imagines itself as upscale and tense, where its methodology is based around the specialty of determination where “editors” fastidiously refine potential outcomes to show up at created and “altered” craftsmanship and culture programs, F&B contributions, music playlists and health ideas. Maqo is for people who want to connect and are drawn to the edited experiences the brand provides. It is designed to provoke and inspire guests with the unexpected at every stay.
Wharf Lodgings’ leader, Thomas Salg, expressed in an official statement: ” Maqo has offered us the chance to reconsider inn spaces and encounters, and we accept the brand will resound with visitors who value mixed spaces and our altered assortments. Looking forward, we are sure that the brand’s contributions will engage assorted visitor portions from business and recreation and are quick to take on advancement possibilities in North Asia, South=east Asia and China.”
On November 1, 2023, the brand will open Maqo Changsha in Tower Two of International Finance Square. It will have 286 rooms and suites, a restaurant, bar, co-working space, and a gym. In 2018, the Niccolo Changha, its sister hotel, opened in Tower One of International Finance Square.
Salg continued, We are optimistic about the future of Mainland China and its steady resurgence of domestic and international travel… Changsha continues to be a core domestic destination with considerable market potential among the progressive cities contributing to the exponential growth of travel within China. We are confident that the brand’s inaugural hotel in the city will be popular for leisure and business travel.
One of many strategic opportunities to achieve Wharf Hotels’ goal of “25 by 2025” is the launch of a new brand, which aims to open more properties in important Asian cities like Singapore, Shanghai, Tokyo, and Bangkok.
