In August 2005, the first HanTing Hotel was built.[5] The first hotel of the group was opened by Kunshan Railway Station for a trial operation in August 2005.[5] Ji Qi (Chinese: 季琦; pinyin: Jì Qí),[6] the founder, stated that he got the idea to start the chain by reading a book discussing Accor.

In August 2018, Huazhu Hotels Group announced the completion of its strategic acquisition of the Chinese boutique resort hotel brand, Blossom.[15] In October 2019, the first overseas directly managed shop of JI Hotel was officially opened in Singapore's historic Orchard Road shopping district, as the first overseas hotel of Huazhu Hotels Group.[16] In November 2019, the company announced that one of their subsidiaries purchased Deutsche Hospitality for 700 million euros.[17]
