 8:34am, 9 November 2025

Deeply expanding the connotation of high-end hotels in Dalian, and "two-in-one" with the Florence (Dalian) Cultural and Art Exchange Center, Dalian's "Colat" theme art hotel is launched. You can stay while participating in art activities, and you can store your cats.

The exterior wall of the building depicts cute colorful cats, which complements the freehand colorful cats on the theme backboard on the opening day. On Ziqiang Street, across the street from Renmin Road in the core business district of Zhongshan District, Dalian City, on October 26, 2018, Dalian's "Korat" theme art hotel "lifted the hijab" and launched a grand ceremony.

This is the first hotel in Dalian to hold art exhibitions, pen meetings and concerts all year round. It has an artistic tone and natural genes.

This is the first hotel in Dalian that has floor heating, heating, and air conditioning at the same time, providing warmth and cooling, and warmth in winter.

This may be the first high-end hotel in China to store your pet cat for your trip. The cat room area is carefully guarded.

On the opening day, the hotel invited guests from government departments, cultural circles, and art circles. At 9 a.m., the ceremony officially began. In his speech, Chairman Li Xin expressed his hope that through the Colat Art Hotel and the adjacent Florence (Dalian) Cultural and Art Exchange Center, it can help Dalian green the "cultural desert" and help more Chinese and Dalian children realize the vision of "world cultural and artistic journey".

Ms. Maria Clara Medina, dean of the Trillo Conservatory of Music, an Italian partner, and Mr. James Gandre, dean of the Manhattan School of Music, an intended partner, also delivered congratulatory speeches at the ceremony.

Art hotels are full of "art"

The name of the "Korat" hotel also comes from cats. "Korat" is a cat that lives on the northwest plateau of Thailand. It means culture and prosperity. Since the 14th century, it has been regarded by Thais as a symbol of good luck and is the best gift for noble weddings.

It was announced on the spot that the "Korat" Art Hotel will recruit paintings for long-term cooperation with art institutions, art schools, art trading platforms, and art media across the country;

the Korat themed art hotel will create a non-pure accommodation hotel that combines Chinese and Western artistic characteristics.

The reporter saw that the paintings by famous artists scattered throughout the hotel blended into the hotel life scenes like oxygen in breathing. People look forward to encountering beautiful things unexpectedly at any time. It is reported that the hotel's future operations will organize a series of activities around various arts, especially music and painting, to continuously strengthen the unique atmosphere.

There is a gallery hidden behind the elevator on the first floor, and there is also a gallery exhibition area for famous artists' creations in the front lobby. Painters from Italy improvised paintings for the audience that day.

The Florence (Dalian) Cultural and Art Exchange Center, which is connected to the Colat Hotel by a "sky bridge", supports each other in terms of art training and the hotel's "two-in-one". It has opened music, painting, fashion design and other training courses for Chinese art children to go to the world, all hosted by Italian foreign teachers, and has direct access to Europe's top art palaces and universities, opening up a different artistic life. From the morning until late at night on the opening day, the hotel held the "Broad but Different" exhibition of works by teachers and students of the China Academy of Art, a "fusion" themed concert and a dance party at the hotel's underground bar. The nearby art classrooms and concert halls of the Florence (Dalian) Cultural and Art Exchange Center also arranged unique visits and high-level performances.
