The Langham, Foshan which opens in 2028, will be Langham Hospitality Group’s 10th property in the Greater Bay Area. As part of the One Sanlong Bay development – which includes luxury residential units as well as Grade A and prime-commercial office spaces – the 160-room urban resort will offer panoramic views overlooking Dong Ping River.

“The Greater Bay Area is a key international powerhouse where Langham Hospitality Group enjoys a strong and growing presence with all of our brands represented. Introducing The Langham to the first-tier hub city of Foshan is an important strategic move for us in this context, and one that will set a new benchmark for luxury experiences,” said Bob van den Oord, CEO, LHG

Government planning in the Sanlong Bay area has focused on offering residents and visitors a high quality of life. This, together with its abundant natural resources and green urban environment, will elevate Foshan as a sustainable city with a low-carbon footprint.

Foshan has exceptional local transport links, and the resort is next to the Foshan Tanzhou International Convention Centre. The city is 25 minutes from Guangzhou South Railway Station, 40 minutes from Shenzhen, one hour from Guangzhou Baiyun Airport, and two hours from Hong Kong,

The Langham, Foshan will feature an extensive number of meeting and event spaces including one of the largest ballrooms in the city, spanning 800 sqm.

Cantonese dining will be offered in T’ang Court, a sibling of the 3-Michelin starred Black Pearl establishment with the same name in Hong Kong. The Langham’s signature afternoon tea will offer the British classic. Chuan Spa, LHG’s proprietary wellness brand based on the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine, will also find a new home there.

Foshan is known as the birthplace of Cantonese Opera, the cradle of Kung Fu and home to the family of Bruce Lee. The southern edge of Foshan boasts the peaks, caves, and the waterfalls of scenic Mount Xiqiao.
