[2025 Hangzhou Stay] Travel Guide for Canopy by Hilton Hangzhou West Lake (Updated Feb)

#timetotravel Every Canopy is designed with local unique characteristic. The design of Canopy by Hilton Hangzhou West Lake is inspired by the city’s past as a hub of cultural diversity throughout history, just like a “kaleidoscope”, with its changeable spaces and wonderful experiences for guests to explore. Featuring elements of kaleidoscope to represent traits of diversity and community, the stylish designed hotel is home to a unique mix of spaces that incorporates aspects from Hangzhou's local culture and architecture-YMCA and Qingnian Road, the very heart of ancient Southern capital, blending both seamlessly as a natural extension of the neighborhood. Delightful tones peppered throughout the hotel create a relaxing atmosphere with touches of refreshing orange hues. Design elements extracted from local culture and recombined with Eastern, Western, Tradition and Modern into the hotel.

Many new hotels in China are located far from the city centre, however, not the Canopy in Hangzhou. It is located just a 5 minute walk from the West Lake and some of the key shopping streets. On arrival in the hotel we were notified our room was not ready. We were offered a drink in the bar whilst we waited and reception looked after our bags. On returning we were given our room keys and found a very orange but stylish room with a view of the lake in the distance. The room was incredibly clean and the bath was huge. The whole hotel gives out a cool bar vibe. The lobby is filled with neon lights and music. After getting settled into our room we went for a short evening walk to see some temples and the lake in Hangzhou. We got back late, around 9pm and used the two free drink vouchers to get a cocktail. The uniqueness of this property, the distance from the major attractions and the service offerings such as free drinks made this one of our favourite stays of the year. Certainly our new favourite hotel in Hangzhou. #hilton #canopy #hangzhou #staycation #china #cocktails

| Real Guest Reviews. Hey guys, today I'm going to share my experience staying at the Hilton Garden Inn Hangzhou West Lake 🎉. The hotel is located at No. 2 Guohuo Road, Shangcheng District, Hangzhou. The location is very convenient, just a 10-minute walk from West Lake, perfect for tourists 🤩. It's about a 30-minute ride from Hangzhou East Railway Station by subway or taxi 🚇. I had a bit of a price "rollercoaster" when booking this time. I booked a basic room for CNY 912 per night a few days ago, then found the price dropped to CNY 870, so I canceled and rebooked. The price dropped again, so after several cancellations and bookings, I finally got it for around CNY 760 😄. When I arrived at the hotel by taxi, I couldn't find the main entrance at first. I only found it when I saw someone coming out of the door. The entrance is really low-key. As soon as I entered the hotel, I was greeted by the cool lighting and nightclub-style decor, which was quite unique 😎. I used my Hilton Diamond Card to upgrade to a deluxe lake view room. However, the lake view was just a small area outside the window and the Baoshu Pagoda on Baoshi Mountain in the distance, but it was still nice. My room was 1111, which I think is perfect for singles. The bathroom is on the right when you enter the room, and there's a large shower area with a bathtub in front. The bedding is nice, and the black and gray duvet cover is unique. The toiletries are from the Thank You brand, in large bottles, and they smell nice. You can also ask the room service staff for small bottles 🧴. When I checked in, the front desk staff gave me branded socks and an eye mask, which was thoughtful. However, they didn't mention the welcome drink voucher, but I don't drink alcohol, so it didn't matter. The welcome fruit was simple, with bananas, apples, and cherry tomatoes, which I thought was okay. However, there were some minor drawbacks. I wanted to take a bath, but the hot water was too slow, and the water temperature was still low after a few minutes, so I gave up 😔. Breakfast is on the first floor and is semi-buffet style. The wontons and noodles were good, and with the other self-serve food, I was full. However, the fried egg I ordered didn't arrive until I finished eating and was about to leave, which was a bit slow. As for other aspects, the hotel's overall style is more suitable for young people, and the service is average. Some guests said they stayed for three nights, with an average price of CNY 1,000 per night, and felt the room layout was like a budget hotel, with a smell of renovation. The hotel lighting is dim, especially on rainy days, which feels depressing. The elevator is slow, and there's a queue for breakfast. There are few restaurant staff, and ordering and serving are slow, with few dishes and untimely replenishment in the buffet area. The deposit is not refunded to the original payment method, and it's noisy at night, which is a bit annoying 😣. However, the hotel's facilities are a plus, such as the Dyson hairdryer, smart toilet, nice sound system, and smart sensor makeup mirror. Overall, the cost performance is not high. If you can stay for one night for around CNY 760, it's worth a try, but I wouldn't consider staying long-term. You can choose according to your needs and budget 🤗.

🎄My husband and I chose a Western restaurant we liked for the weekend. The restaurant is right by West Lake, surrounded by the quiet environment of the Hilton Garden Inn. We came here to enjoy a night full of surprises and joy. 🎄We entered the restaurant and chose a window seat. The restaurant is decorated warmly, with many Christmas elements incorporated, creating a strong Christmas atmosphere. In the evening, the lights dimmed, and the resident singer started singing after 7 pm, making the atmosphere even stronger. After 8 pm, there was free-flowing drinks, and we started to get tipsy. 🎄Christmas Cream Spinach Pasta: Pasta made with spinach juice, shaped like a Christmas tree, perfectly combining deliciousness with festive elements. The pasta is smooth and chewy, so delicious that you can't stop eating. 🎄Christmas Fruit Salad: The plate and shape are both in the shape of a Christmas tree, with various fresh fruits and vegetables inside, drizzled with a secret sauce, offering a rich taste and a double enjoyment of sight and taste. 🎄Christmas Cream Cheese Snowman: A perfect blend of fresh strawberries and cream cheese, made into a cute snowman shape, a dessert with a strong Christmas atmosphere, making it hard to eat, but the taste is unforgettable. 🏠Store: Nettare Western Restaurant & Music Bar & Craft Beer Bar (Hilton Garden Inn West Lake) 🔴Address: 1F, Hilton Garden Inn West Lake, No. 2 Guohuo Road, Shangcheng District 🈺Hours: 11:30 am–12 am 🚌Transportation: Take Metro Line 1 to Ding'an Road Station, Exit B, and walk 520 meters 🚌Parking: Free parking for three hours

The hotel is full of Christmas spirit 🎄 and is a great place to take photos When you step into the hotel, it's like entering a Christmas wonderland 🔮 This is definitely a great place to take photos in Hangzhou. The giant Christmas tree is dazzling and full of dreamy light. 🍽️ The hotel has many unique Christmas-themed decorations, The restaurant is a romantic place for a date in Hangzhou with its Christmas decorations. 🔔 The table settings are exquisite and complement the Christmas decorations, creating a symphony of taste and sight. 🛏 The hotel rooms are also unique When you enter the room, the bright and warm Hermes orange lights up the whole room like sunshine, and the gentle beauty of West Lake is quietly spread out outside the window, like a natural poetic painting. The room is full of energy and elegance. 🥂 After check-in, you can also get two carefully prepared drinks. I chose a cocktail to enjoy the Christmas joy. As night falls, the hotel's live music is like a heavenly sound, adding a touch of surprise to this Christmas night. You will fall in love with the romantic city of Hangzhou because of Canopy by Hilton Hangzhou West Lake 💗

Hangzhou's essence lies in its mountains and fields, but it's still more convenient to stay in the city center! I chose to stay at the Canopy by Hilton Hangzhou West Lake. . Unlike the Hilton hotels I've stayed at before, I was amazed by the warm orange decor as soon as I entered, from the lobby to the room, the whole place exudes a fashionable and youthful vibe. The design is full of creativity, completely refreshing my impression of Hilton. . In the evening, I ordered a set meal for two at the hotel restaurant, not only is the environment good, but several young couples also chose to celebrate their birthdays here, the taste is outstanding, and the portions are generous, more than enough for a family of four! . After eating, you can walk to Hefang Street and Southern Song Imperial Street, stroll around and experience the bustling city against the backdrop of history, the day was well-planned, I love this kind of Hangzhou!

Hangzhou | West Lake Hilton Jiayueli🧡| The location is very good, close to West Lake, and there is a business district nearby, which is very convenient. I felt like I was in a nightclub in the elevator. The whole hotel is mainly orange. I actually prefer more elegant hotels (of course, I can't say that this style is not good-looking, it's purely personal preference). I think it's quite similar to the W Hotel. 🧡Advantages: 1. The hotel is in a good location, close to West Lake and Yintai. 2. The bedding is very comfortable, and it is the most comfortable hotel I have stayed in so far. This place doesn't look like a hotel at all. As soon as you enter, it's a place with red lights and green wine, but it doesn't seem so noisy. The waiter provides services and consultations enthusiastically. There are many lights but it doesn't feel dazzling. This time I stayed, I was upgraded to a lake view room. Although the room is not big, the decoration details can be felt very delicate. This delicate room is a bit like Indigo in Shangcheng. The lake view room is overlooking West Lake. It was raining when I came, so it was good to have a lake view and enjoy the scenery, otherwise it would be really boring. Breakfast is in a semi-buffet form, so you can eat hot food, which is great. Anyway, this is a very novel experience nightclub.

Conrad Hangzhou This time I came to Hangzhou and chose Conrad Hangzhou. The hotel is located at No. 2 Guohuo Road, about a 10-minute walk from West Lake. You can take the subway or a taxi from Hangzhou East Railway Station to the hotel. Both take about half an hour. A few days ago when I booked the hotel, the price was CNY 912 per night for a basic room, so I booked it. Then, a few days ago when I was browsing the app, I found that the price had dropped to CNY 870, so I cancelled the previous booking and rebooked. But the funny thing is, when I checked the price again later, I found that the price had dropped again, so I repeatedly cancelled and rebooked, and the final price was about CNY 760. When I took a taxi to the hotel, my first reaction was, where is the hotel entrance? Then, when I saw the door open and someone came out, I realized that the door was very inconspicuous. The front desk is just inside the hotel entrance. The hotel has a nightclub style, and the lighting is very cool. My Hilton Diamond card was upgraded to a Lake View Deluxe King Room. As for the lake view, it's actually just a small area you can see far away from the window, as well as the Baochu Pagoda on the distant Gem Mountain. The hotel room I was given was No. 1111, which is suitable for single people. The bathroom is on the right when you enter the room, and there is a large bathing area with a bathtub in front of you. The bedding in the room is also good, and the black and gray quilt cover is a bit different. The toiletries are from the Thank You brand, and they smell good. They are all large bottles. Of course, if you ask the room service staff, there will also be small toiletries. When I checked in, the front desk staff also gave me brand socks and an eye mask, which was a plus, but they didn't mention the welcome drink voucher. Since I don't drink much, it didn't matter. The welcome fruit was simple bananas, apples, and cherry tomatoes, which I think is fine. Breakfast is on the first floor and is semi-buffet style. I feel that I ordered small wontons and mixed Sichuan food, plus other self-service food. It's not a problem to eat enough. The only drawback is that the single-sided fried egg I ordered hadn't been served when I was about to leave after eating. Overall, this hotel is more suitable for young people with a nightclub style. The overall service is mediocre, with advantages and disadvantages. If the room rate is about CNY 760, it's okay to stay for one night. I didn't feel any noise, and the view outside the window is just for looking. After all, it's not a high floor and you can't see much of the lake and mountains. Okay, this time Hilton added 1 stay and 1 room night, a total of 49 Hilton stays and 117 room nights in 2024. Conrad Hangzhou

This place is indeed very youthful, with social attributes (two cocktails are provided)... The rooms are average, but the things used are all good brands, and the view seems to be able to see a tower. ❤Reasons for recommendation: . 1⃣The location of the hotel is great!! There is a bus stop downstairs, it's very convenient to go anywhere!! You can walk to Intime, and it's half an hour drive to ✌ Dragon Well, Lingyin Temple, Manlong, Xixi, Zhejiang University and other core scenic spots of West Lake. . 2⃣The room is mainly cream-colored! The duplex design with floor-to-ceiling windows is very bright. It's suitable for a family or girlfriends to stay together! It's not crowded at all. Warm~ Projector, sofa, green carpet, etc., casually take pictures📷 are super out of the picture~ The dream house!! . 3⃣The hotel service is really thoughtful! There is also a kitchen, 🍳you can cook, the facilities are very complete!! The view from the rooftop is also particularly beautiful👍The sunset and night view are amazing! It's so worth it to stay by the West Lake!😭. 🌟Highlights: ✅The location of the hotel is simply amazing. The scenic area⛰️ is nearby... The location is really good! There is also a subway station🚇 nearby, it's so convenient to come here from Hangzhou! It's also very close to Lingyin Temple, shopping, eating, all in one go, very satisfying👍🏻 - ✅The minimalist design is very high-end. It's hard for the hotel design to meet the aesthetics of young people, simple and atmospheric, it's comfortable to look at~ The room is intelligent🤖, it's simply a gospel for lazy people! I love their bedding the most, it's super comfortable, sisters who are particular about beds can also sleep very well~ - ✅The hotel facilities are complete. Buffet restaurant, bar, gym, laundry room... everything is available! All-day coffee is free☕, coffee lovers don't miss it! They also provide cocktails🍸 when checking in, a small drink, the atmosphere is directly pulled up🈵~

Location environment: This trip is to see the exhibition, so I chose Canopy near Nanshan Road. It's indeed convenient, just a few minutes walk to the West Lake and Intime; dining is also convenient, checked in Wu Zi and the Michelin recommended noodle shop. The hotel opened in 2020, the facilities are new, and as a new brand under Hilton, the orange-based decoration is comfortable and vibrant. Service: Because I have to stay for three nights, and the sleep quality is poor, thank the front desk lady for upgrading my room type. But the service has a lot of room for improvement compared to other old five-star hotels. Catering: Because I didn't have breakfast at the hotel, for the catering~ but a single full egg meal was delivered, it looks good but the taste is very ordinary. There are also free cocktails at night, which are not very satisfactory. In summary, the location is convenient! Worth staying! Young people will like it! I will stay here next time I come to Hangzhou 🌟Highlights: High-end lifestyle brand under Hilton. The Hilton Canopy Hotel is a natural extension of the surrounding neighborhood community, creating innovative hotel services and guest experiences. There are 24 operating Canopy hotels worldwide, with more than 35 under construction, spread across 16 countries and regions.
