THE Fairmont Peace Hotel is due to reopen on March 28 after three years` restoration but specific plans are still under discussion, said Shanghai Jinjiang International Hotels Group today.
The daily standard room price may rise to US$300 and Fairmont Hotels and Resorts will manage the 104-year-old hotel, which closed for restoration in April 2007.
The north wing in Nanjing Road East, first built in 1929, will keep its original appearance while the south wing will become a Swatch store.
Celebrities of the 1930s such as actor Charlie Chaplin and writer George Bernard Shaw once stayed in the hotel.
