This is the first branch of the Intercity Hotel in Central China's Hubei province. Featuring the color style of black, white, gray, and chestnut, the hotel boasts a silent, comforting, and simplistic heaven.

The hotel has 216 highly intelligent guest rooms and 144 double rooms. The building is equipped with gyms, meeting conferences, minibars, self-service laundry rooms, and other communal spaces with multiple functions. Since its trial run one year ago, the hotel has been applauded for its buffet combining German and Wuhan unique cuisines.

"Wuhan is a pivotal hub in terms of its location, economic development, population, and higher education, we will target the city as one of our key markets," said Jin.

So far, OVC has been home to a batch of internationally influential hotel brands, including Hilton and Marriott.
