Ask about loyalty programme benefits for extended stays — some offer free upgrades.
Request a unit near laundry facilities for maximum convenience.
Our Picks

Binjiang
Reliable, smartly designed, and well-positioned in the technology corridor south of the river — a favourite with business visitors to Alibaba's headquarters. Rooms are bright with good connectivity, the rooftop bar has mountain views, and the subway puts the lake within twenty minutes.
Qianjiang New Town
An efficient luxury choice in the business district — generous rooms, a large indoor pool, and a convenient subway connection to West Lake. The Grand Ballroom is one of the most popular wedding venues in the city, which gives the whole property a well-rehearsed glamour.
Tianmu Mountain
Songtsam's Yunnan-born design vocabulary — rough stone, pine, and clay — translates surprisingly well to Zhejiang's mountain landscape. Just 21 rooms amid the cloud forests of Tianmu Mountain, with guided forest-bathing, traditional medicine consultations, and a wood-fire sauna fed by mountain spring water.
West Lake
Minimalist white curves on the western shore, close enough to the Su Causeway to hear the willows. The InterContinental's West Lake-facing rooms are among the most photographed hotel interiors in China — floor-to-ceiling glass, a cloud-white bed, and the Leifeng Pagoda perfectly framed.
Longjing
A converted tea farmer's estate in the Longjing Dragon Well tea gardens — just eight suites amid hectares of terraced green. Mornings are spent hand-picking tea with local farmers; evenings in a cedar soaking tub on your private terrace as the hills turn violet. The most genuinely local luxury experience in the Hangzhou region.
West Lake
A lakeside landmark on the Su Causeway embankment — the Hyatt's rooftop pool at night, when the lake is reflected in the lit pagodas, is a genuine spectacle. Rooms are spacious, the Regency Club lounge offers a commanding view, and the position is ideal for walking the causeways at sunrise.
