The Langham & Andaz Xintiandi Hotel

Seamlessly blending the old and the new, The Langham & Andaz Xintiandi Hotel in Shanghai are two hotels that raise the standard for modern buildings in historic settings by subtly complementing its surroundings while still maintaining modern forms. Featuring stone-clad patterned walls that resemble Chinese screens and a low-rise podium, The Langham Xintiandi is composed of 362 rooms while the Andaz has 309. Standing at a hundred meters tall, it was designed by Kohn Pedersen Fox with ALT working as the facade consultant.
