What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
This Hotel Indigo, whose distinctive curved form resembles a guqin, a traditional Chinese stringed instrument.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Hengqin Port is a five-minute drive away for trips into Macau. Riverfront walking paths and a yacht pier sit right outside.
The rooms
Rooms look out over the Tianmu River, finished in soft greens and teals with perforated butterfly artwork.
The pool and gym
Bring a swimsuit.
The heated indoor pool sits beneath a glass skylight, sharing sweeping river views with the adjoining 24-hour gym.
Qichao All-Day Dining Restaurant
Cane-backed chairs and botanical murals fill the dining room, where Cantonese dim sum is served beside riverfront windows.
Bar
Red & Gold Lounge
Perforated gold panels and high skylights rise above the curved bar, surrounded by sculptural red armchairs and skyline views.
How it began

Architect Fu Guohua designed the building to resemble a guqin zither, curving steel roofs to echo the surrounding island ridges.
