The Azure Qiantang, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Hangzhou

I’ve seen so many posts on Xiaohongshu about this hotel, and honestly, I was a bit skeptical at first—especially with the price point. But after staying here, I’m seriously impressed. We were upgraded to a 180-degree river view room for free, and the view alone is worth every penny—watching the Qiantang River stretch out in front of you during the day or the city lights sparkle at night is unforgettable. The service was prompt and thoughtful throughout our stay. Special shoutout to Anthea at reception—friendly, efficient, and always smiling. And Jack from the Chinese restaurant went above and beyond with his warm hospitality. Everything felt personal, not just transactional. If you're looking for a luxury experience with a stunning riverside view and genuine care from staff, this place delivers. Highly recommend it.

Hotel Twinkle

Staying at Hotel Twinkle in Hangzhou's Binjiang Olympic Sports Center was hands down one of the most memorable experiences I've had recently. From the moment I stepped into the lobby, the elegant French-inspired architecture and modern luxury set the tone perfectly—like walking into a high-end art gallery. The exterior is strikingly sophisticated, but it’s inside where the details truly shine. Every corner of the public spaces feels intentional and beautifully curated, with an artistic vibe that speaks volumes about the hotel’s attention to quality and design. The front desk staff were exceptional—my personal concierge was warm, attentive, and always smiling. Whether it was check-in or last-minute advice before checkout, their professionalism and genuine hospitality made all the difference. Dining here was another highlight. The restaurant isn’t just visually stunning—it delivers on taste too. Breakfast was fresh and thoughtfully prepared, while dinner offered a refined menu with excellent presentation. The ambiance elevated every meal into a special occasion. The fitness center and pool are well-maintained and spacious, perfect for unwinding after a long day. I especially loved soaking in the pool under the evening sky—it was peaceful and rejuvenating. One small moment stood out: I arrived late and accidentally locked my keycard inside the room. Without hesitation, the team helped me reissue a new one quickly and calmly. Their calm response and willingness to assist made me feel truly cared for. Overall, this place offers more than just a room—it offers a feeling. High-end comfort, thoughtful service, and a serene atmosphere make it a standout choice. I’ll definitely be back.

The view from the room is absolutely breathtaking: directly facing West Lake, with the musical fountain just steps away. Waking up to that scenery, especially in the morning light, felt like a dream. The room itself was spotless, well-maintained, and fully equipped with modern amenities. I loved the thoughtful touches—comfortable bedding, excellent air quality, and quiet surroundings.

Pagoda Hotel Hangzhou Binjiang

Staying at Pagoda Hotel Hangzhou Binjiang was an absolute delight. The room was immaculate, with a subtle and soothing fragrance that instantly put me at ease. The minimalist design is both modern and calming, creating a perfect retreat after a busy day. Staff were professional and attentive throughout — check-in was smooth, housekeeping efficient, and special shoutouts to Xiao Shan and Xiao Yu for their warm, thoughtful service. As a returning guest from previous stays at other Jun Ting properties, I was pleasantly surprised by the complimentary room upgrade and a charming little Hangzhou fridge magnet as a keepsake — such a sweet touch! The attention to detail and genuine hospitality make this hotel stand out. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Hangzhou, and I’ll definitely be back.
