In a lively part of town
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
The entrance opens directly onto the Grand Tang Mall pedestrian street, with the Giant Wild Goose Pagoda a short walk away.
The rooms
Beds rest beneath brass canopy frames on Serta Cool Balance mattresses, surrounded by warm tones and tailored textile panels.
At the table
IN TOWN Café finishes signature eclairs to order, and Ambrosia serves regional Chinese dishes among curved orange banquettes.
How it began

Hirsch Bedner Associates shaped the interiors around the Tang idiom celebrating fine garments and swift horses, completing the renovation in 2021.

Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.
Local
It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.
Social
Where the city goes out. The bar is full and the night is young.

A building with a story. Once a palace, a monastery, a station.
Wellness
You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.
Classic
The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort
A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
Lively
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.

Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
