Brand Story
Located in Wuhu, Anhui, Jiujiang Hotel traces its origins to the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China (around 1900). At that time, Wuhu was a major trading port along the Yangtze River, bustling with merchants and thriving culinary scene. The hotel was named after Wuhu's ancient name 'Jiuzi', with 'Jiujiang' symbolizing its roots by the river and service to all. Initially, it focused on local river fish and Huizhou cuisine, gaining a reputation for exquisite cooking and honest business. During the Republic era (1912-1949), it became a favored gathering spot for literati and business elites, with signature dishes like 'Crab Roe Lion's Head' and 'Steamed Knife Fish' earning wide acclaim. After the founding of New China, the hotel underwent public-private partnership, preserving traditional techniques while embracing modern management. Though the exact founding year is not officially verified, the hotel stands as a witness to Wuhu's culinary culture, its century-old cooking skills and riverside charm forming an integral part of the city's memory.
