Hotels near Shangcheng, Hangzhou

The room arrangement was good, and the front desk staff provided excellent service – they were attentive, responsible, and thoughtful. The breakfast tasted good, and they even gave us a souvenir when we checked out. They were kind enough to let us take extra water bottles, fearing we might not have enough. The hotel's location is great, with plenty of food and drink options nearby. It's not far from West Lake, and there are metro and bus stations close by, making transportation very convenient.

This hotel is great for a vacation, though the air in the rooms isn't the best, possibly due to its age and location in the mountains. (It smells a bit musty.) However, the oxygen content is high, making for a very comfortable sleep. A leisurely stroll around the lake is also very pleasant. The lake-view seating at breakfast is absolutely fantastic, and enjoying breakfast while watching the sunrise is a truly unique experience. The downside is that breakfast itself is a bit underwhelming; the semi-buffet set menu feels a bit haphazard. The crayfish noodles with thirteen-spice seasoning didn't hit the mark, and the portion of noodles was too large. I'd suggest offering a smaller portion option. The chef for dinner was excellent! The oil and salt levels were perfectly controlled, and the flavors were spot-on. The braised shrimp, stir-fried eel with scallion oil, and stir-fried loofah were all incredibly authentic. My only slight regret is that the hotel's own landscaping and small environment aren't as good as they could be (due to design and planning).

The hotel facilities are complete and the location is excellent. It's very close to West Lake, about a 10-minute walk, and also very close to Hubin Yintai 177, just a 5-minute walk. I highly recommend staying here when visiting the area.

The hotel was fully booked on the day of our check-in, and we arrived over an hour early. Several staff members introduced us to various activities to pass the time, including a dedicated room for movies, board games, and a swimming pool. While waiting for our room, the service and amenities at InterContinental Danyang were exceptionally warm and thoughtful. The room was a family lake-view suite, accommodating four people. The hotel's location, far from the central lake area, was incredibly tranquil, with no tourists by the lake. Away from city light pollution, we surprisingly saw the Milky Way on our first night, a rare sight in East China. The swimming pool offered different children's activities daily. The botanical garden had a vast array of flowers and butterflies, along with a koi and swan pond where we could feed the fish. The hotel's two wings also featured a lighthouse and an observation deck. The buffet dinner had everything we could ask for, and on Chinese Valentine's Day, they even gave out roses. The fish head dish at the Chinese restaurant was absolutely superb. Breakfast deserves special praise; despite the hotel being fully booked, we could order noodles via our phones, and the staff proactively asked about our coffee preferences. This is exactly the standard expected from an established InterContinental brand, and even with the summer crowd, the service and quality were uncompromised. Finally, a special shout-out to our thoughtful butler, Emily. From the moment we checked in, she was incredibly attentive. On our last day, we had an early morning departure for a yacht in the central lake area. Without hesitation, Emily helped us arrange a late check-out, even during the busy summer season. To be honest, when I heard that the InterContinental was being rebranded, I had some reservations, worrying about a potential drop in service. However, after staying here, I can confidently say that this is by far the best hotel in China, in terms of both quality and service, that we've stayed at with our child during the summer season. Both its hard and soft assets are top-notch, and its service easily rivals that of established luxury hotel brands. I rarely choose to stay at the same hotel twice in the same location, but InterContinental Danyang has made me eagerly anticipate my next visit.

The environment here is fantastic! The lobby has books, a guzheng (Chinese zither), and calligraphy brushes, plus two adorable parrots 🦜. I'm very satisfied with this hotel; the rooms are spotless, and the front desk staff are wonderful. It's also very convenient for getting around. To go to West Lake, you just need to take the subway to Xiuxi Road Station. I really love it and will definitely stay here again next time I'm in Hangzhou.

It's like living in a forest, with acorns constantly falling from the trees. The hotel is very clean, with virtually no mosquitoes. The room facilities are all excellent, especially the toilet flushing, which isn't too loud. Special praise goes to the hotel staff; their service was exceptionally good from check-in to check-out. They provided afternoon tea with fruit platters, nuts, and tea; offered ginger soup and ice packs if you had a cold; and promptly came to your room to help with any issues. The hotel only offers vegetarian food. I tried it once, and it was quite good and creative. Compared to the Black Pearl Hotel (averaging 1000 RMB per person), it's definitely not quite as good, but it's much better than other vegetarian restaurants in temples. Every ingredient was very fresh, although there were some issues, like the watermelon in the complimentary fruit platter being sweet and the blueberries being extremely sour. If you don't want vegetarian food, the surrounding farmhouses are a good option, offering fish, chicken, stir-fries, etc. I randomly picked a few and none were bad. The hotel also arranged various courses, including a healing class and Baduanjin (Eight Pieces of Brocade). Lying in a cabin surrounded by trees and feeling the breeze on a platform by the forest river was a truly therapeutic experience! I stayed for two days and there were still many courses I didn't get to try, so I'll make up for them next time! I'll consider bringing my parents next time.

I brought my parents to Hangzhou, and staying in a hotel as a family of three can be a bit awkward. Hotels around West Lake are either astronomically priced or old and rundown. I bought a room voucher after seeing a recommendation on Xiyou. For a Saturday night, a 50-square-meter two-bedroom suite by West Lake, including three breakfasts, offered incredible value for money. What's more, I was able to book it just two days before our trip. Of course, there were clear downsides. The room's decor and furniture were indeed a bit old. Being in a bustling commercial area, we could faintly hear car horns and mall music from the street even at 9 PM. However, the upside was that it was very clean, and the beds were comfortable. Once asleep, I wasn't woken up and slept soundly until morning. Having two bathrooms, and with the doors closed, it was essentially like having two separate rooms, which is perfect for adult children traveling with their parents. The hotel breakfast was also delicious. Besides Bianchuan and small wontons, the live cooking station offered scallion oil noodles. The soy milk was rich, and you could add your own toppings and vinegar to make savory soy milk, which is hard to find a good one outside. The 10th-floor terrace offered a nice view, and we even caught the sunset. It's not far from the subway station, with plenty of food and entertainment options nearby. To get to West Lake, you need to use an underground passage. Overall, I highly recommend it.

I saw the beautiful pool online and decided to bring my little ones for a weekend road trip with my girlfriends. However, the overall experience was just okay. We were assigned to Block B with two kids, but the pool and restaurant are all in Block A, which was quite inconvenient for going back and forth. Also, since we had two children, I asked the hotel for an extra set of kids' toiletries. They said it would be an additional charge. I've stayed in many hotels, and this is the first time I've encountered this. I could understand if it were just one child and they were unwilling to provide it, but we actually had two. The pool isn't heated, so it's not recommended for children to stay in for too long. After playing in the water, the kids kept sneezing frequently at night 🤧. Moreover, the toilets in the pool area were very dirty, especially the commodes. I suggest they improve management and make it more welcoming. On a positive note, the breakfast was excellent. All the ingredients were fresh, and the taste was great.

Really good! The surroundings are incredibly peaceful, with tea plantations all around and fantastic air. The room was comfortable too; the twin beds could be pushed together to make a super-large bed, perfect for stretching out. The front desk service was also excellent, and they even gave us a souvenir when we checked out.

Location: About a 5-minute walk to Duanqiao (Broken Bridge), taking the exit opposite the revolving door in the lobby makes it even closer. It's super convenient for exploring West Lake. This is the absolute main highlight!!! The coffee shop in the lobby on the first floor is beautifully decorated with lots of greenery. Room: We had a twin mountain view room with a balcony, overlooking Baoshi Mountain. The room, bathroom, and balcony were all very spacious. Facilities: Quite old and worn. Even the toilet seat was faded and mottled. The wardrobe was inside the bathroom, which was a bit unusual. The TV size and distance from the bed weren't ideal; it was a bit of a strain to watch TV while relaxing in bed. Cleanliness: Generally well-maintained. Breakfast: A wide variety of options, with an excellent selection of fruits. The freshly made noodles were the best.
