Mandarin Oriental slated to unveil Pudong Shanghai unit in 2Q13

Taipei will be next.

According to Nomura, MOIL now operates 28 hotels, compared with 26 at the start of 2012, and has a further 16 hotels under development.

Together these represent over 11,000 rooms in 27 countries. In addition, the Group operates six Residences at Mandarin Oriental connected to its properties, with a further eight under development.

In February 2013, MOIL acquired the freehold rights of the building housing Mandarin Oriental, Paris and two prime retail units for €290mn (US$389mn). MOIL previously
leased the hotel under a long-term contract.

Here's more from Nomura:

Mandarin Oriental, Guangzhou, which is located in the city’s central business district, opened in January 2013 and features 263 rooms and 24 serviced apartments.

Mandarin Oriental, Pudong Shanghai is scheduled to open in the second quarter of 2013, followed by Mandarin Oriental, Taipei later in the year.

During 2012, management contracts for new hotels under development in Bodrum in Turkey, Marrakech in Morocco, and Chengdu in China were announced.

In addition, the Group assumed management of an existing 127-room luxury hotel in the United States, which has been rebranded Mandarin Oriental, Atlanta.

While global economic conditions remain uncertain, MOIL’s results should benefit from the strength of its portfolio, the acquisition of the Paris property and the limited new supply of luxury hotels in the Group’s key markets.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
