Beijing, China – Regent Hotels & Resorts is pleased to announce the opening of the iconic steakhouse Morton’s of Chicago in the Regent Beijing, recently ranked among the Best Hotels in the World by Conde Nast Traveler’s 2012 Reader’s Choice Awards. Located in the heart of the Chinese capital, the hotel and restaurant are just a stone’s throw from the Forbidden City.

Located on Jinbao Street in the bustling commercial center of Wangfujing, Regent Beijing sets the standard in luxury accommodation. The 500-room hotel offers contemporary yet classic design with luxurious guestrooms and suites that feature modern facilities, including complimentary high speed internet access, large plasma television screens and DVD players. Several of the guestrooms enjoy panoramic views of the spectacular city.

“We are thrilled to offer our guests another iconic offering – this time through our cuisine. Both Morton’s and Regent have a history of providing excellent service, so it made sense to welcome them to our Regent Beijing,” said Ralf Ohletz, President of Regent Hotels & Resorts. “We look forward to working together with Morton’s to offer our guests a world-class steakhouse experience in the heart of Beijing.”

The 220-seat Morton’s restaurant features eight private dining suites ideal for corporate meetings, entertaining guests, or family celebrations. The restaurant also has a cozy private lounge room for wine connoisseurs, and a signature open display kitchen. Morton’s Beijing is offering a finely crafted menu serving the best available aged grain-fed beef, as well as fresh fish, Maine Lobster, lamb chops and chicken entrees.

“Morton’s Beijing is the culmination of our long-held passion to bring our trademark values – Quality. Consistency. And Genuine Hospitality – to the Chinese capital,” said Stephen McCrimmon, Regional Director of Operations – Asia. “Our premiere location in the center of the city and surrounded by the headquarters of many large local and international companies makes Morton’s Beijing the ideal dining hotspot. We are very excited to be serving our world-famous American fine dining and offering our legendary service to the cosmopolitan and distinguished diners of this great and historical city.”
