The China Daily reports that when it is finished in 2014 the Shanghai Tower J Hotel might set the world record as the highest hotel. (The reason for the use of the word ‘might’ is that hotel builders have a habit of adding a tower at the last moment to grab the record.)
The hotel will span the 84th to 110th floors of the Shanghai Tower, which will rise 632 meters, or 121 stories. Construction began two years ago.
The hotel will feature 258 luxury guestrooms. The lobby will be on the 101st floor.
Jin Jiang Hotels was quoted by China Daily as saying that it will be the world’s highest luxury hotel when it opens in late 2014 or early 2015, surpassing the Park Hyatt Shanghai, which currently holds the title.
English.News.cn reports the Shanghai Tower is located in the central business district of Lujiazui, Pudong district, near the Shanghai World Financial Center and Jin Mao Tower.
