Hilton announced the opening of Canopy by Hilton Hangzhou Jinsha Lake, a 10-storey, 179-room hotel that provides energizing, positive stays for business travelers and cultured vacationers.
The waterfront hotel is conveniently located in the heart of Qiantang New District of Hangzhou East, offering a unique urban resort experience coupled with the city’s best views of Jinsha Lake. Canopy by Hilton Hangzhou Jinsha Lake marks the brand’s twelfth property and is owned by Vangoo Group and managed by Hilton.
“With the rapid development of the high-tech and manufacturing industry and rich cultural heritage, Hangzhou Qiantang New District has immense potential in attracting leisure and business travelers,” said Qian Jin, area president for Greater China and Mongolia, Hilton. “Following the huge success of the brand’s Asia Pacific debut in Chengdu, we are thrilled to announce the second opening in the region in Hangzhou. The property underscores our commitment to maintain strong growth momentum in Greater China and continue to deliver positive experiences to our guests.”
Once a wetland for farmers more than 2,200 years ago, the neighborhood where Canopy by Hilton Hangzhou Jinsha Lake resides has transformed into a hotbed for technological innovation and a growing destination for business events. Ideally located by the lake, the hotel is only a few blocks away from a shopping mall, dining outlets and the soon-to-launch Jinsha Grand Theatre, offering guests seeking local experiences the perfect base to discover local cuisine or enjoy a relaxing stroll along the lake’s shore. Guests can enjoy direct access to Hangzhou Metro Line 1 for quick connections to business districts, major scenic destinations and Hangzhou East Railway Station, and Xiaoshan International Airport is located only 25 kilometers away, just 30 minutes by car.
“Through the neuroscience research we conducted in partnership with Nielsen earlier this year, we found that today’s Chinese travelers seek a taste of authentic local experiences during their travels, which is exactly what Canopy by Hilton offers at this new location,” said Gary Steffen, global head, Canopy by Hilton. “The hotel will immerse guests in Qiantang New District’s natural beauty and heritage with its architectural and design elements.”
Canopy by Hilton Hangzhou Jinsha Lake has been carefully designed to incorporate the unique art culture of Hangzhou. Upon arrival at the hotel lobby, Canopy Central, guests will be greeted by a white ceramic centerpiece floating above the lobby inspired by the Osmanthus, the city’s flower, which is traditionally planted in front of local homes and known as a “golden welcome” to guests. The 3D-grafted decorative wall panels along the hotel corridors feature continuously changing illustrations of aquatic plants and marsh birds, immersing guests in the nature of Hangzhou.
