What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
On the banks of Hengjiang Bay, where the wetland park meets a landscape of traditional Huizhou dwellings, this 250-room property has one of the more quietly remarkable settings in Anhui.
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Tunxi's ancient town is ten minutes away, and the cable cars up Mount Huangshan are within a half-hour drive.
The rooms
Each room opens onto a private balcony facing the river or courtyard gardens, accented with traditional Huizhou craft patterns.
The pool and gym
Bring a swimsuit.
Cushioned loungers line the indoor pool, and treadmills in the 24-hour fitness center look out over the park.
At the table
Private dining rooms at Xiangyue open toward garden pavilions, and Market Café serves international dishes from open kitchen counters.
How it began

Vegetated channels and rain gardens wind through the grounds, filtering runoff naturally before it empties into the river.

A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene

Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
