They have signed a strategic collaboration agreement.
The joint venture, Yuen Kai Holdings Limited, will develop and manage hotels including six existing Mumian hotels in Beijing, Shenzhen, Chengdu, Hangzhou, and Rizhao as well as two new Mumian hotels in Shaoxing and Shanghai.
These properties are expected to become part of The Unbound Collection by Hyatt and JdV by Hyatt brands.
