The first InterContinental in the Central Plains, the best and most expensive hotel in Zhengzhou!

Opened on October 20, 2023, InterContinental Zhengzhou Dennis Plaza is the first InterContinental in Zhengzhou, the most high-end brand in the Zhengzhou hotel market, and the best and most expensive hotel in Zhengzhou. As a new generation of InterContinental, this hotel in Zhengzhou has reached the standard of a luxury hotel in terms of staircase exterior design, interior design, hardware, etc. 1. The hotel is located in one of the core business districts of Zhengzhou - Erqi Business District, on the site of the former Henan Yu Opera Theater. The hotel draws inspiration from the old site and pays tribute to traditional and local culture with the theme of "Xiangyu". The hotel incorporates the orderly Chu-Han boundary, the staggered eaves of the Shangcheng streets, the Yu Opera teahouses by the window, and other iconic ancient capital cultural elements into the hotel. 2. The interior design is by CCD, with the theme of "Welcome with Rituals and Music". The lobby art installation uses the form of water to show the artistic conception of the Chu-Han boundary, and the words of chess are imprinted on the water paper, forming a trickling sign, which is full of cultural connotation and visual tension. In addition, the hotel design also reflects the unique rivers and mountains of Zhengzhou in an artistic and abstract form. In the hotel, you can also see the historical elements of the Shang Dynasty architecture and city towers integrated with modern design, paying tribute to the profound historical culture of Zhengzhou with a magnificent appearance. Whether it is the lobby art installation, cabinet decoration concept, green plants, wall art, etc., every detail of the hotel integrates the geographical location, natural elements, historical culture, and modern elements of Zhengzhou, creating a wonderful "Xiangyu" with the heart of China and the center of the world. 3. I personally really like the hotel lobby bar "LaB on 7", which is based on the Yu Opera teahouses all over the streets and alleys of Bianjing in the Northern Song Dynasty, recreating the bustling street scenes of the past, tea houses, and wine shops. Playing the strings, watching the opera, and drinking tea by the window, it is very comfortable. The lobby bar has a good height, and there is a corresponding distance between the seats to ensure the privacy of social interaction. Here, you can enjoy the lifestyle of early C and late A, with coffee, tea, and afternoon tea during the day, and a cocktail or red wine to start a tipsy moment at night. 4. The hotel has 268 modern and elegant rooms and suites, with Yu Opera design elements everywhere - water sideburns, flowing water sleeves, red curtain folds, folding fan costumes, etc., like a graceful flower girl, telling the thousand-year history with a beautiful oriental aria. The room area starts from 42 square meters, and you can enjoy the quiet garden view or the bustling city view by the window. All rooms are equipped with an intelligent induction system and exquisite facilities: HOMETIME and GENEVA Bluetooth sound system, NESPRESSO coffee capsules, independent bathtub and walk-in shower, Dyson hairdryer; the bath products are from the European emerging fragrance brand - BYREDO, ensuring the quality of stay. The walk-in closet is specially equipped with a dressing table, providing convenience and comfort for modern women's business travel, making storage more tidy and orderly. 5. In terms of dining, Cai Feng Lou Chinese Restaurant focuses on exquisite Chinese fusion cuisine, with many private rooms of different sizes in addition to the scattered seating area. During my stay at the hotel, I had two lunches at the restaurant. If you like hot pot, you can choose the snowflake beef set meal, which is for three people, with freshly cut snowflake beef, dried bean curd, mushrooms, seasonal vegetables, etc. Eating hot pot in winter is very warm. 6. I also chose the 3-4 value set meal for one lunch, which is really a good value. It is completely enough for 3-4 people, with soup, main course, staple food, pre-meal fruit, etc. The main course includes Yellow River carp, ginger and onion fried Nanyang yellow beef, Cai Feng coral juice shrimp balls, and typhoon shelter lamb chops. There are many dishes, and the taste is also good. This set meal is 398, and the per capita cost is less than 100, which is super cost-effective. 7. Commune All Day Dining Restaurant is probably the only restaurant in Zhengzhou that serves buffet dinner every day, with good quality and not expensive price. The seafood stall has a complete variety, and the barbecue stall is also a highlight, with lamb chops, steaks, etc., which can really be enjoyed. The oysters are of good quality and quite large, a must-eat. Boston lobsters are delivered, one and a half per person, and salt-baked shrimp are also delivered. The dessert stall is really dazzling, beautiful and delicious, and those who like desserts can enjoy dessert freedom. 8. The hotel fitness center is located on the 9th floor, equipped with professional fitness equipment from the famous American brand Life Fitness, and also has an independent yoga room, activity room, and private training courses. The indoor constant temperature swimming pool is 25 meters long and 8 meters wide, and the hazy ripple screen isolates strong ultraviolet rays, allowing natural light indoors without the trouble of direct sunlight. In the quiet space hidden in the city, travelers can sweat freely, enjoy the pleasure, or wander in the water, finding a moment of leisure. 9. The hotel service is also very commendable, especially the concierge department, which has a strong sense of service and is very enthusiastic. Other service staff, such as the front desk and room cleaning, are also very friendly to guests. Overall, the quality of InterContinental Zhengzhou Dennis Plaza is very good, worthy of being the best hotel in Zhengzhou, and definitely the best choice for business travelers in Zhengzhou.
