Suzhou’s only art and design hotel unveils a collection of Art Experience Packages for guests in collaboration with the Suzhou Art & Design Technology Institute
Hotel Soul, the only boutique art hotel in the historic garden city of Suzhou, is extending its artistic touch to offer guests unique creative insights and hands-on experiences during their stay. In addition to showcasing cutting-edge contemporary art installations throughout the deluxe hotel, Hotel Soul has launched a collection of Art Experience Packages in collaboration with Suzhou’s leading art academy, enabling guests to create their own Suzhou masterpieces.
Hotel Soul’s specialized Art Experience Packages at the Suzhou Art & Design Technology Institute, available every weekend from April 1 to June 30, offer guests a privileged insight into traditional Oriental arts and crafts. Courses range from traditional Suzhou embroidery, Chinese brush and watercolor painting and classic calligraphy, to jewelry making and glazing ceramics. Guests can even try molding clay on a pottery wheel like the romantic scene between Demi Moore and Patrick Swayze in the movie Ghost. Guests can take home all these unique handmade souvenirs of their Suzhou art experience.
The Hotel Soul Art Experience lessons include a background to each art form, preparing the materials and tools, practicing different techniques and an appreciation tour of celebrated works. The lessons also offer opportunities to interact with rising young stars of the contemporary Chinese art world.
The Hotel Soul Art Experience Package is RMB1298 net, including one nights’ stay for two people (RMB998 net for single occupancy) in a Premier Twin Room, breakfast for two at signature French restaurant Brasserie 101, and a range of benefits across the hotel’s facilities and organized trips. Return transportation and the full art experience at Suzhou Art & Design Technology Institute are also included.
Championing a luxurious lifestyle infused with art and innovation, the avant-garde Hotel Soul has developed a close association with the Suzhou Art & Design Technology Institute. Eight talented young artists from the Institute recently completed a series of 19 bespoke artworks, which are now on display throughout the hotel’s public spaces and meeting rooms as part of Hotel Soul’s permanent collection. Resonating with Hotel Soul’s philosophy, these sculptures, multimedia interfaces and light boxes are designed to celebrate the accomplishments of modern China during its transformation, and are cleverly integrated into the hotel’s interior design.
Hotel Soul, developed by the creator of Hong Kong’s award-winning boutique hotel The Luxe Manor, is Suzhou’s first experience-driven boutique hotel celebrating contemporary Chinese art and design. Located in Suzhou’s main business district with convenient access to both Suzhou science parks, Hotel Soul honors China’s ‘big miracles’ through avant-garde design, while delighting guests with ‘little miracles’ of technology, luxury and hospitality. As well as exploring the best of Suzhou art and culture, guests at Hotel Soul can enjoy the finest culinary arts at Suzhou’s first authentic French restaurant, Brasserie 101, plus designer in-room amenities and high-tech conveniences. Hotel Soul also offers a well-equipped gym and juice bar, reflexology room, rooftop chill-out garden and premium corporate and MICE facilities.
“Hotel Soul’s unique and innovative concepts reflect our vision for boutique hotels, which we feel should be innovative and showcase the original works of local artists. Our specialized Art Experience Packages in collaboration with Suzhou Art & Design Technology Institute offer unique artistic insights and relaxing experiences for guests, and contribute to their “miraculous” experience at Hotel Soul,” says Eddy Lee, General Manager of Hotel Soul.
