The Luxury Collection debuted in Taiwan with the opening of THE AMNIS, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Kaohsiung.
Part of Marriott Bonvoy, the Luxury Collection is a destination-focused brand with 130 properties in more than 40 countries and territories. Its newest addition in Kaohsiung pays special attention to the area’s local artistic scene in both its design and programming.
“Kaohsiung’s blend of natural scenery, cultural vibrancy, and creative energy aligns beautifully with the spirit of The Luxury Collection,” said Ivory Chia, the hotel’s general manager, adding that the property “brings a refreshing new perspective to southern Taiwan with its thoughtful design, art-forward experiences, and intuitive service that celebrates the essence of Kaohsiung and invites guests to create cherished moments that will become treasured memories.”
THE AMNIS, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Kaohsiung features 147 guestrooms boasting North American timber finishes, Angora Grey marble, and floor-to-ceiling windows. The hotel offers residential-style privacy with only six to 10 rooms per floor. It also offers extensive wellness facilities, including a semi-outdoor pool, sauna, steam room, and a fully equipped Technogym fitness center.
The property is conveniently connected to Kaohsiung Station, Sanduo Shopping District MRT Station, and Kaohsiung International Airport. It is also steps away from Kaohsiung Music Center, Exhibition Center, Main Public Library, and ALIEN Art Centre, which it partners with for its own curated gallery and scheduled guided tours for guests as part of The Luxury Collection’s signature Destination Discoveries.
For dining, options include Ukai-tei Kaohsiung, the first international outpost for the Japan’s UKAI Group; Dassai Bar, showcasing the world’s finest sake; and In-Jade Lounge, an all-day restaurant that transforms depending on time of day.
