Large windows allowed plenty of natural light into the room, creating a bright and relaxing environment after a day of sightseeing.

Excellent Location in Chunxi Road (春熙路)


One of the hotel's biggest advantages is its strategic location near Chengdu's 
(成都) famous shopping district. From the hotel, it was easy to walk to the bustling Chunxi Road (春熙路), one of the city's premier shopping and entertainment areas.
