Starwood Hotels and Resorts has announced the opening of its first dual-branded ski resort complex in Changbaishan, China - adjacent to the slopes of the Changbai Mountains.

The Dalian Wanda Group-owned resort features Westin and Sheraton-branded hotels, with the Westin property including a 1,322sq m (14,230sq ft) Heavenly Spa among its facilities.

Open to guests of both hotels and members of the public, the spa has eight treatment rooms - four of which are single rooms, two are twin rooms and the remaining two are suites.

Facilities also include a foot massage lounge; a Turkish bath; a sauna; warm and cold water whirlpools; and a Mahjong/chess room, with a reflexology and relaxation area inside the suites.

The 262-bedroom Westin hotel also has an indoor swimming pool, while the 297-bedroom Sheraton hotel offers the Sheraton Fitness programmed by Core Performance concept.

It is the first Starwood ski resort in the Asia Pacific region, while also extending the group's footprint in China where it has more than 100 hotels in operation and 100 in the pipeline.

Starwood president, Asia Pacific, Stephen Ho said: "Guests will enjoy world-class amenities set against the backdrop of one of China's most visually stunning mountain ranges."
