In a lively part of town
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
The People's Liberation Monument sits two minutes away on foot, surrounded by the bustling pedestrian lanes of Jiefangbei.
The rooms
Bedrooms occupy floors 36 through 49 with understated decor, and river-facing categories look straight down at the Yangtze.
The pools
Bring a swimsuit.
A heated lap pool rests on the sixth floor, and an indoor sky pool perches 230 meters above the city.
The spa
Wood-paneled treatment rooms host massages and facials, supported by changing rooms with dry saunas and a whirlpool.
The gym
Technogym cardio equipment and free weights line the fitness studio, which connects directly to a dedicated yoga area.
Restaurant
Seasonal Tastes
Live-cooking stations and buffet counters span the 50th floor, looking out toward the Yangtze River and surrounding mountains.
At the table
Lounge 51 serves afternoon tea beside the sky lobby, shifting to cocktails beneath slatted timber ceilings at nightfall.
