The building features a 270-degree floor-to-ceiling lobby and offers complimentary astronomy-guided tours to help guests understand celestial movements.

Its rooftop Sky Observation Deck is open nightly until 10 PM, equipped with high-powered telescopes and hot beverages.

Additionally, the "Youth Astronomy Explorer Camp" offers hands-on activities like building mini-telescopes, drawing constellations, and recording observational data—perfect for kids aged 8–16. Participants also enjoy digital planetarium shows simulating ancient sky patterns and Earth’s axial tilt. All events are low-cost or free, but require advance registration via the official website. Early HopeGoo is advised due to limited spots.

Crowne Plaza Shanghai Xiayang Lake

Staying at Crowne Plaza Shanghai Xiayang Lake was an absolute delight from start to finish. The property is beautifully set, with a peaceful atmosphere that immediately made us feel relaxed. The staff were incredibly warm and welcoming—despite being fully booked, the front desk team greeted us with genuine smiles and handled everything efficiently. Even when calling guest services, we never experienced delays or long hold times, which is impressive during peak occupancy. The entire hotel was decked out in festive Christmas decorations, creating a cozy, joyful ambiance perfect for the season. One highlight was the in-house buffet hot pot featuring premium beef—huge portions, fresh ingredients, and outstanding value for money. It’s rare to find such quality and affordability in a hotel dining option. Whether you're here for a family getaway, a romantic escape, or just a quiet retreat, this place delivers on every level. Highly recommended!
