Snel Overzicht: A stunning Instagram trap of a hotel hidden inside a generic office building—epic views, but zero traditional hotel lobby vibes.

Beoordeeld door @YvetteChoco4705480: I felt like the main character in a sci-fi movie here. The way the walls turn into a thunderstorm while you're safe in bed is wild, and the morning view from the tub is just unbeatable. Definitely the coolest, most unique spot I've stayed in Chongqing.

The hype

Guests are obsessed with the river views and the free laundry service, but many find the arrival experience confusing.

Reality check

You aren't paying for a 5-star hotel infrastructure; you're paying for a killer room view and a butler on your phone.

  • You live for the aesthetic: projector screens, smart toilets, and bathtubs with a view
  • You prefer texting a butler over calling a front desk
  • You want to be right next to Raffles City but pay half the price

Schoonmaak & Onderhoud

9.2
  • Housekeeping: Daily and thorough. Guests consistently rate cleanliness highly.

  • Maintenance: Modern and new. Everything works, from the electric curtains to the projectors.
  • Linens & towels: Fresh, high-quality, and replaced daily.
  • Odors & scents: Lobby smells of expensive perfume; rooms are generally fresh unless you get an unlucky drain issue.

Voordat je boekt

Goed om te weten

  • The hotel entrance is in 'Chaotianmen Center Building' (Everbright Holdings), NOT Raffles City.
  • Breakfast is often delivered to your room or served in a small makeshift area; don't expect a grand buffet.
  • They offer free self-service laundry, which is a lifesaver for long trips.

Wat je mee moet nemen

  • Comfortable walking shoes with grip (Chongqing is all hills and slick stairs)
  • A power bank (you will use your phone constantly for maps and photos)
  • Digestive aids (if you plan to survive the local hotpot)

Kamer Genie

Beste keuzes

  • 270° River-view Deluxe Suite (corner room for the absolute best dual-river views)
  • Rooms facing the 'Crystal Corridor' for the iconic Raffles City backdrop

Kamers om te vermijden

  • Interior-facing rooms or lower floors (though most are high up, some angles are blocked by adjacent towers)

Veelgestelde vragen & Verborgen tips

Alles wat je eigenlijk wilt weten voordat je boekt.

Is this hotel inside Raffles City?

No. It is in the Chaotianmen Center building directly opposite Raffles City. You get the view OF Raffles City.

Does the hotel have a pool?

Technically yes (shared with the building), but reviews scream to avoid it due to hygiene issues.

How do I communicate with staff?

They will add you on WeChat upon arrival. The 'Butler' service is responsive and uses translation tools well.

Is it hard to find a taxi?

No, taxis and Didi (rideshare) can pull up to the building entrance, but traffic in this area is notoriously jammed.

Can I order food delivery?

Yes, 'Waimai' is huge here. A robot will often deliver the food directly to your room door.

Is breakfast included?

Usually yes, but it's a simple set menu or small buffet served until 12 PM (brunch style).

Tips van Insiders

  • ✨

    The 'Storm SPA' is a unique room/feature you can book for a photo shoot with rain effects—it's more for the 'gram than actual therapy.

  • ✨

    Use the subway entrance 'downstairs' (Line 1 Chaotianmen) to skip the surface traffic jams.

  • ✨

    Ask the butler for a 'bath bomb'—they often provide them for free for the tub.

5 dingen die je moet weten voordat je gaat

  • 💡The elevator ride to the lobby can be slow during rush hour as it's a shared office building.

  • 💡The 'gym' is very small and basic; don't plan a serious workout.

  • 💡You might see other guests doing full-blown photoshoots in the hallways.

  • 💡The air conditioning is powerful, but humidity in the bathroom can linger due to the large tubs.

  • 💡There is no bar, but you can buy cheap beers at the convenience store in the building basement.
