Amara Signature Shanghai

Better Hotel Wi-Fi for Higher Guest Satisfaction

According to the Chinese Tourist and Hospitality Industry Association, by the first half of 2017, there were 848 five-star hotels in China, 72 of which were in Shanghai1. With growing industry competition, it is critical for high-end hotel brands to develop and strengthen their core competencies and be able to compete in the future.

Amara Signature Shanghai operates under the Amara Group based out of Singapore, which mainly engages in hotel investment and management in Asia, as well as a number of specialty dining establishments. The Amara vision is to be recognized as the leading Asian integrated lifestyle group. Sharing this common vision as the first Amara hotel in China, Amara Signature Shanghai strives to deliver first-class service and a five-star experience to all customers.

In the hospitality sector, Wi-Fi for guests is no longer a luxury but a necessity. Better network connections help the hotel to attract more guests and improve their offerings in a competitive market.
