Architecturally stunning hotel brings guests closer to nature with sophisticated & sustainable hospitality experience.

MGallery Collection has announced the debut of its newest destination in Greater China, the Chengdu Expo Waterfall Hotel - MGallery Collection. 

Situated in the Eastern New Area of Chengdu, the new 172-room hotel resides on the site of the International Horticultural Exhibition 2024 Chengdu – a tribute to the Sichuan city’s progress in reinventing itself as a park city. Located at the heart of the exhibition venue, the hotel offers a uniquely immersive experience with nature, welcoming guests with a living and lasting homage to the theme of “Park City, Beautiful Habitat”.

With ecologically designed landscapes that weave nature throughout the urban experience, Chengdu is an ideal market for the MGallery Collection, where Chengdu Expo Waterfall Hotel - MGallery Collection joins Ocean Spring Resort Chengdu – MGallery and the upcoming Chengdu Financial City – MGallery Collection.

“We are thrilled to bring the sustainable luxury and progressive mindset of the MGallery Collection to this beautiful parkland setting in the heart of Chengdu,” said Gary Rosen, CEO, Accor Greater China. “As we continue to expand our presence in this important and fast-growing market, we are confident that Chengdu Expo Waterfall Hotel - MGallery Collection will deliver a memorable and meaningful hospitality experience that graciously entwines the abundance of nature and the rich fascinations of Sichuan culture. With each new MGallery destination we open, we are adding a new dimension to the hospitality scene, drawing travelers and locals who appreciate the elegance and sense of ease of these distinctive, storytelling hotels.”

Chengdu Expo Waterfall Hotel – MGallery Collection is comprised of two architecturally stunning buildings – the Waterfall Pavilion and the Habitat Pavilion – that work together to create a visual and emotional connection to the lush enchantments of the surrounding landscape. The unique red sandstone design of the Waterfall Pavilion conveys a sense of interior warmth and harmony, while echoing the cascading experience of the outdoor terrain. The Waterfall Pavilion offers 132 spacious guestrooms and eight sumptuous suites, each with privileged views of the nightly waterfall cliff lighting show – delivering one of the hotel’s signature ‘Every moment is my M Moment’ experiences. 

In the Habitat Pavilion, guests discover an enriched wellness experience. Each of the 32 guestrooms features its own private hot spring for enjoying private moments of tranquility. The Pavilion also houses the Hot Spring, a sanctuary for self-care and well-being. Panoramic views are met with an unfolding collection of indoor and outdoor private hot springs and sauna rooms.

Continuing the wellness journey, the hotel features a modern fitness center and a spacious swimming pool area, contributing to an atmosphere of peace and vitality that harmoniously blends with nature.

The restaurants and lounges of Chengdu Expo Waterfall Hotel - MGallery Collection deliver on the brand’s mission to create immersive and multi-sensory experiences in gastronomy and mixology, while showcasing the destination’s own abundance of produce – in this case, the rich Sichuan and Cantonese culinary traditions. The line-up of dining options include M Kitchen Restaurant for a lively experience of global dishes and buffet; Jin Palace, a grand Chinese restaurant featuring inventive Sichuan and classic Cantonese cuisine; Mee Hot Pot for gourmet Sichuan and Yunnan mushroom hotpots; M Lounge for unwinding with signature cocktails or afternoon tea; and Rock Bar, with an outdoor BBQ vibe that features tempting light meals, snacks, wine, and expertly crafted cocktails. 

When it comes to hosting special events and celebrations, Chengdu Expo Waterfall Hotel - MGallery Collection is an idyllic destination. From romantic weddings to modern conferences and large-scale exhibitions, the hotel’s expert conference services team is dedicated to ensuring flawless events with meticulous and professional service. Featuring a 518 sqm column-free ballroom and four multifunctional meeting rooms, each space is equipped with comfortable foyers and advanced multimedia facilities.
