China is experiencing a boom in luxury hotels, and not just in major cities like Shanghai and Beijing - evidence that finer amenities and a touch of Western comfort are becoming more important to the country's growing number of domestic tourists as well as to international visitors. "China represents extraordinary opportunities," Hervé Humler, the president and chief operations officer of the Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company, said in an email. The Ritz-Carlton isn't the only hotelier that is focusing on China's lower-profile cities. Hualuxe, the InterContinental Hotels Group's newest brand, designed specifically for Chinese guests, said it would open properties across China within the next two years, including a Mediterranean-style beach resort in Chengdu.
