A carrier of half a city's memories

Stroll along the parasol trees on Zhongshan Road in Changsha, and you'll see a Soviet-style building with red brick walls and glazed blue tiles standing quietly. This is the Xiangjiang Hotel, which carries the memories of half the city. As Changsha's earliest three-star hotel, this building, built in 1955, was once the "Hunan Provincial People's Committee Foreign Affairs Office," receiving countless foreign guests and experts, and witnessing the golden years of urban diplomacy. After a precise horizontal relocation project and 10 months of renovation, this cultural relic, listed as a "modern protected building," has been revitalized and become the first five-star B&B in central China renovated from a historical building. The 43 guest rooms cleverly blend retro and modern styles: exposed red brick walls are matched with an intelligent temperature control system, carved wooden windows reflect custom-made bedding, and a Soviet-style dome hides the tipsy sentiment of a whiskey bar. A gym, library, and courtyard are scattered throughout, as if you can always encounter contemporary comfort while traveling through a historical corridor. What's even more endearing is the humanistic care in the details. The butler team is familiar with the story of the old Xiangjiang Hotel and can customize a "Republic of China Celebrity Experience Tour" for you. Open the window in the morning, accompanied by the authentic aroma of old Changsha rice noodles. From the protection of cultural relics-level buildings to personalized travel services, the Xiangjiang Hotel uses a cross-century dialogue to allow every guest to participate in the continuation of history. Here, the old days have never gone far away, but gently embrace you in a more elegant posture.
