Located in the CBD, this large, multi-faceted hotel is a five-minute drive from the West Lake. The hotel excels in making western guests feel at home, while providing easy access to exotic locales. Positioned in one of the city’s busiest hubs, guests happy to explore on foot will find abundant shops and restaurants nearby. Guests can enjoy Chinese, Japanese, steaks and seafood specialities at any of the on-site restaurants. In addition to those, there is also a Coffee Shop and a deli at the hotel. Early risers should not pass up the opportunity to observe – or even join – a sunrise session of Tai Chi with the locals. As charming as any boutique, the Holiday Inn Hangzhou lives up to the Holiday Inn reputation in all respects.
