Beef Wellington at Waldorf Astoria Chengdu 🇨🇳
When we talk about one of the fanciest hotels in Chengdu then Waldorf Astoria is in that list without a doubt. Their Limited Limited Edition restaurant offers great options especially grilled and steak. My hubby and I of course ordered Beef Wellington because we failed to order this in Sanya at Gordon Ramsay's restaurant
The restaurant holds a very beautiful view of Tianfu District especially when you are there at night as the city lights up.
Prepare 500rmb above for each person.
Address: 1199 Tainfu Avenue North, Gaoxin District Chengdu.

Chengdu truly lives up to its reputation, even a street corner here can be so beautiful!
📍【Location Reveal】:
Tie Xiang Si Shui Street in Chengdu is located in the hinterland of the High-Tech Industrial Development Zone, adjacent to the historic Tie Xiang Si, at the intersection of Jiannan Avenue and Shengbang Street in Wuhou District, Chengdu.
🏞️【Attraction Introduction】:
Stepping into Tie Xiang Si Shui Street is like entering a flowing ink painting of the Jiangnan area. With grey tiles and green bricks, small bridges over flowing water, the ancient-style buildings stand along the river, forming a stark contrast with the surrounding modern skyscrapers, yet existing in harmony. The area not only retains the traditional Sichuan Western residential style but also integrates modern commercial elements. Teahouses, bookstores, handicraft shops, and fashionable restaurants are interspersed among them, where the artistic atmosphere coexists with the hustle and bustle of the city. It is especially recommended to visit at dusk when the lights and water reflections weave together, creating a unique flavor.
🚌【Transportation Tips】:
The subway is the most convenient way to reach Tie Xiang Si Shui Street. Take the Metro Line 1 to the Hi-Tech Zone Station, exit from Exit B, and walk for about 10 minutes to arrive. For those driving, use navigation software to search for "Tie Xiang Si Shui Street"; there are several parking lots nearby to choose from.
🏨【Accommodation Recommendations】:
- **Waldorf Astoria Chengdu**: For travelers seeking a luxurious experience, this five-star hotel located in the Financial City is just a few steps away from the water street.
- **Niccolo Chengdu**: Situated in the IFS International Financial Center, it combines modern design with high-end services. While overlooking the city skyline, it's also easy to reach Tie Xiang Si Shui Street and experience its ancient charm.
🍴【Food Recommendations】:
- **Ma Wang Zi Sichuan Restaurant**: The go-to choice for authentic Sichuan cuisine, with signature dishes like Kung Pao Chicken and Dan Dan Noodles, spicy and flavorful, leaving a lasting impression.
- **Tea Hundred Ways**: While strolling through the water street, why not take a break at this popular tea drink shop, where a cup of specialty tea paired with a few exquisite snacks can be enjoyed at a leisurely pace.
⚠️【Notes】:
- Tie Xiang Si Shui Street is busier on holidays and weekends, so it is recommended to visit on weekdays for a better experience.
- Wear comfortable shoes, as the area is very suitable for walking and exploring.
- Respect local culture and religious sites, keep the environment clean, and when taking photos, please ask the shop owners or respect the privacy of others.
- Taste the food in moderation, as Sichuan cuisine is delicious but can be quite spicy, adjust according to personal taste.

Affordable Chengdu Hotel! Stayed three times and really like it
🌟 Hotel Location & Transportation: The hotel is located in the High-tech Zone, which is relatively newer and cleaner compared to the old city area. It shares an underground parking lot 🅿️ with INTIME in99. You need to go up from the underground to the first floor, then from the first floor to the 50th floor lobby to check in, and then from the 50th floor to the room floor. As for parking fees, hotel staff on the first floor will take care of it each time you leave.
🌟 Shopping: INTIME in99 is right downstairs, which has a supermarket, beverage shops, some big brands, making it super convenient to buy daily necessities. However, the selection of big brands is not very comprehensive, not as complete as Taikoo Li IFS.
🌟 Bed: The bed is so soft, which I, with a bad back, do not prefer.
🌟🛁: Asked the front desk for a disposable bath bag and enjoyed a hot 🛁. The mini TV embedded in the wall is more like a decoration.
🌟 Other: The breakfast is quite good, with tasty Eggs Benedict and boiled rice noodles. I feel that the variety is not very extensive, but it's still fine. The interior decoration of the hotel looks very nice. I like the pearl shell-style mosaic in the bathroom. Anyway, it feels more textured than the photos I saw when booking. The room has floor-to-ceiling windows, and the view looking down is quite good, especially since Chengdu's flora is much better than in the north.
The Epicurean Expedition
In this lifetime, one must experience staying at the Waldorf Astoria Chengdu at least once
Hotel Environment: The interior decoration shows that it was quite luxurious, and it would have been very beautiful ten years ago, but now it feels quite outdated. It is indeed very spacious, and occasionally you can see young ladies taking photos inside.
Stay Experience: Upon arrival, someone will help with the luggage. We arrived after 11 a.m., before the check-in time, so we left our luggage with the concierge and went out. We checked in after 7 p.m. The entrance leads to a cloakroom, followed by a large bathroom, and then there's a big bed, a sofa, and further inside, a room with a desk and a lounge chair. The bath products are from Aesop. We didn't see any tissues in the room and had to order our own takeout, which we picked up downstairs. Occasionally, you can hear the sound of the neighboring doorbell, but overall, it's quite quiet.
Breakfast Experience: The breakfast buffet has very few options and isn't very tasty. However, I think the soy milk is quite authentic, not made from powder. The corn is dry and seems to have been sitting out for a while, lacking moisture. The fruits are fairly fresh. There aren't many choices for a la carte dishes, and some may be disappointing. However, the pancakes, French toast, and roasted beef are delicious (the quality of the roasted beef is inconsistent, some are very tough, some are still bloody). But what deserves praise is the great attitude of the waitress sisters!
Conclusion: Overall, the experience is quite average. The value for money is not very high. A nearly 4000 RMB per night hotel doesn't feel different from a 2000 RMB one. I will try other hotels in the future, but the reputation of the Waldorf Astoria is there. If you haven't stayed before, it's still worth experiencing.

A Chengdu chapter of staying in a hotel with my boyfriend! A budget hotel that you don't want to check out from
Away from the bustling city center, it's the first choice for those who prefer fewer people and a quiet environment. There's a Super Xingxing gym just 50 meters away where you can attend classes.
The decor is classic and solid, but nothing particularly outstanding. The view of the CBD outside the room is quite nice, and as a Diamond member, I was upgraded to a supreme corner room. The room is a bit larger but the layout is somewhat odd.
The accompanying bathroom is very nice, with a steam room, sauna, salt room, ice room, and massage pool. The view is also great, and there are very few people, which I consider the most satisfying part.
The breakfast indeed has a limited variety and is of average quality, not a big deal if skipped.
Overall, this hotel seems more suited to carry the Conrad brand, whether in terms of price or the overall vibe and experience. I also somewhat understand why many people have quite a few complaints about this place.
ETTA MYERS
Chengdu! Recommended budget-friendly hotel to stay at
The hardware is definitely up to par, with a grand lobby and centerpiece decorations. The rooms are quite spacious, and the higher floor location offers an excellent view. At night, you can see the light show from the Twin Towers of Tianfu Financial City across the street. On clear days, you can see the distant snow-capped mountains and planes taking off and landing at Shuangliu Airport during the day).
The downside is the location. Although the hotel is right above the INTIME retail complex and close to SKP, it is still far from the bustling shopping districts. I really miss the breakfast dumplings and Dan Dan noodles.
🛏️ Room: Guest rooms starting from 50 square meters. Waldorf custom beds, panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows, smart room and bathroom equipment. Equipped with a separate desk, walk-in closet, double basin marble vanity, and a shower with a wet and dry area. The amenities are from Ferragamo, with a rich scent that fits the brand perfectly.
🎃 Public Area: A retro welcome lobby with a high ceiling on the first floor; SkyLobby on the fiftieth floor. Its air double-height grand lobby is majestic, with a 12-meter-tall WA logo that is eye-catching.
💡 Design Inspiration: Inspired by the old Siheyuan courtyards of Chengdu. Innovative four-sided check-in desk at the front. Gorgeous chandeliers, grand columns, and details full of decorative art style, as if you are in the glamorous New York Metropolis of the last century.
🥣 Breakfast: Brasserie99 all-day dining restaurant, European style. Overall, the food offering is quite rich, and the view of the financial city from the high-floor windows is great.
🤠 Service: Hilton's warm hospitality💯. During both stays, there were young ladies and gentlemen who carried the luggage to the room. Welcome fruit, welcome cake, and WA commemorative pendants. The concierge's car arrangement is as professional as ever.
🧸 Must-visit: Hilton's ultra-luxury brand, everything has the WA style. The lobby also perfectly incorporates the Waldorf Astoria clock, experiencing the romance of 'Meet me at the clock'. Super high-floor room views (elegant park view/dazzling city view), with INTIME in99 Mall right downstairs. I hope to have the chance to visit their 220-meter high Waldorf rooftop bar next time

The Waldorf Astoria in the Clouds
The Waldorf Astoria Chengdu captivates me with every design detail, exuding a strong sense of atmosphere and boasting the most beautiful night view, overlooking the bustling streets of Chengdu. Officially opened in July 2017, the Chengdu Waldorf Astoria is the third location in the Greater China region, situated in the affluent South Gate area of the city. Right below is the INTIME in99, and it's close to both the Renhe New Town Financial City SKP and other destinations. However, it's quite far from the tourist-favored areas within the third ring road, such as Chunxi Road, Jinli, and the Wide and Narrow Alleys, primarily catering to high-end business travelers...
The entrance to the Waldorf Astoria Chengdu is located at a corner of INTIME in99. Driving into the small road leads to the drop-off lobby, where the canopy is specifically designed with reference to the entrance of the Waldorf Astoria in New York. The extensive use of metal elements, along with the dark yellow and deep brown color tones and the application of Art Deco geometric patterns, is a tribute to America's Gilded Age;

Check into the 'Cloud' at the Waldorf Astoria
Waldorf Astoria Chengdu is the third WA in China. Unlike the first two, which are located in properties with deep historical significance, the Chengdu WA is entirely situated in a brand-new building. This allows for greater creativity in its interior design. The property is a major investment by the owner Yintai, designed by Jon Kastl, the renovator of the New York Waldorf Astoria, who personally oversaw the project to extensively replicate the Art Deco style of the New York WA, allowing guests in Chengdu to experience the high society of the 1920s from across the ocean.
Location: Situated on Tianfu Avenue, next to the Financial City Metro Station. Perfectly located at the intersection of the new and old parts of the city, with excellent connectivity. Rooms: Starting from 50 square meters, the rooms feature Waldorf Astoria's custom-designed beds, panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows, intelligent room and bathroom facilities. Equipped with a separate desk, walk-in closet, double-sided marble washbasins, and a shower with a wet and dry area. The amenities are from Ferragamo, with a rich scent that fits well with the brand.
Public Areas: A high-ceilinged, retro-style welcome lobby on the first floor; the SkyLobby on the fiftieth floor. The double-height lobby in the sky is grand and atmospheric, with a 12-meter-tall WA logo that is eye-catching. The design inspiration comes from Chengdu's traditional Siheyuan (courtyard houses). The front desk features an innovative four-sided check-in. The grand chandeliers, majestic columns, and the abundance of Art Deco details give the impression of being in the glamorous New York metropolis of the last century.

The Waldorf Astoria Chengdu hotel
The Waldorf Astoria Chengdu hotel combines classic elegance with modern luxury||Chengdu has many hotels, and although the Waldorf's location is not as convenient as those near Taikoo Li, the view of the financial district's nightscape offers a different experience. The overall feeling of the hotel is very good, with a grand and understated luxury decor. A special mention goes to the air conditioning, which is whisper-quiet (really, many good hotels have quite loud AC units).
The hotel is quite suitable for couples traveling, as you hardly see any children, although we did bring our kid 😂😂😂. If you want to avoid kids, I really recommend staying here.

Waldorf Astoria Chengdu | Luxurious Five-Star Hotel Trial Stay Experience
Luxurious Five-Star Hotel Trial Stay Experience. 🌟Highlights:
Let's talk about the commendable aspects first
The 'Flower and His Friends Joint Afternoon Tea' here is so delicious, not only does it have super realistic panda bear shapes, but it's also sweet without being cloying, even someone like me who doesn't like chocolate finished off several pieces.

🏨Hotel Environment:
Waldorf Astoria Chengdu has been open for 6 years now, it's a hotel under the Hilton Group, and it's in a great location
The park below is Jiaozi Park, next to it is the in99 shopping mall, where you can complete shopping, dining, leisure, and movies without leaving the building, and from the room, you can see Chengdu's internet-famous landmark — the Financial City🏨. The hotel's entire facilities: decor, gym, swimming pool, are all nice, and the service is also quite attentive.
However, I was a little disappointed that the Mini bar requires a separate charge.
JASPER JOHNS
girlfriend and I have stayed at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in Chengdu for the third time!
🏨
Upon check-in, we were welcomed with fruits and also received a box of small cookies, but the mini bar is chargeable. It takes more than half an hour by taxi to Taikoo Li and Chunxi Road (if there's traffic), but there's an INTIME in99 shopping mall downstairs, which houses the only Croissant in Chengdu, as well as Valentino, Alexander Wang...
If you're just looking to enjoy the hotel without visiting attractions, it's worth a stay. When we were there, the hotel had a large jellycat, and you could have jellycat afternoon tea with a small plush toy included.
The hotel's facilities are quite good, whether it's the lobby or the rooms, which are luxuriously decorated and great for girls to take photos. It's probably one of the top hotels in Chengdu for photo shoots. The gym is also nice.
I don't understand the design of the changing room; it's in a separate small compartment, and once you open your suitcase, there's no space left. I had to step over the suitcase again and again to hang up my clothes, which is quite an inhumane desig

The geographical location is excellent, overlooking the night view of a five-star hotel in Chengdu

All spa suites are equipped with private dressing rooms and rain showers, using the high-end spa brand Zunji Pa and the Falmann series products from Switzerland, integrating the classic tea therapy with local characteristics, providing you with the relaxation of soul and body, allowing you to enjoy the supreme comfort experience.
The indoor heated swimming pool on the 48th floor is about 25 meters long, equipped with a comfortable massage bathtub, allowing you to enjoy the city's beautiful scenery while swimming. There are also saunas, steam rooms, ice rooms, independent showers and salt rooms, allowing you to achieve all-round relaxation of body and mind.

Check in and stay at the must-stay list hotel & Chengdu Waldorf Astoria.
Check in and stay at the must-stay list hotel & Chengdu Waldorf Astoria.
It feels really comfortable! I have a few points that I am quite satisfied with.
1. Forgot to bring contact lens solution and asked the front desk for it in the middle of the night. They brought it to me within 15 minutes because the one they brought the day before wasn't new. They even brought a new bottle for me the next day.
2 pillow selection card, pillow core selection, can choose lavender, buckwheat and other pillow options. I chose lavender because I have to be particularly particular about the environment when sleeping alone in order to sleep well!
3 All bath products are Ferragamo, and every day they will provide you with new ones. Plus, two sinks are very convenient.
4 beds are really comfortable. Hahaha, I feel like sinking in. I want to ask them where they bought the mattress. I also really like the pillows. I like pillows that are big, soft, and high, and I feel safe hugging them while sleeping.
5 Their check-in process requires going to the 50th floor first and then taking another elevator to reach the room, which provides great privacy!
6 Restaurant
The self-service dinner restaurant is located on the 49th floor. The dishes are very rich, and the seafood is basically complete, including king crabs, lobsters, and shrimp. It completely meets the standards of a luxury five-star hotel. Various seafood, snacks, and specialty foods are all available, and I want to taste every kind of them.
In the evening, go to the SIP bar on the 51st floor and order a cocktail with some snacks. With the night view outside the large floor-to-ceiling glass, you can relax until 1am. Put down your phone, enjoy the night view, and contemplate tomorrow. That moment is really relaxing. Isn't this what young people are lacking nowadays?
Stayed for three days in total, will choose Waldorf Astoria again for the next trip to Chengdu.
Mainly, I didn't spend much time in the hotel these three days, so I didn't go to the gym or the swimming pool. But don't miss their afternoon tea in the sky.
If everyone goes, you can stay at an awesome place!

Waldorf's ultimate experience of luxury is beginning from the moment you enter the room. Stepping into the guest room, I felt like I was in the home of the upper class. In the suites of Waldorf Astoria in Chengdu, some exquisite works of art were placed everywhere, giving the whole room an elegant atmosphere.
White flowers are visited in many places in the room, giving people a sense of awakening; high-end fashion newspapers and magazines, intimately equipped for celebrities and aristocrats; selection of San Pei Lu and Puna drinking water, from everyday The details can be felt here; 6 different pillows for different types of guests to choose from... Each detail is especially good for me.
The wall of the guest room, as long as you look carefully, you can find that the mountains, birds, and fish jumps in Chengdu are all here. There is also an elegant hibiscus flower in the bath room, which highlights the taste and charm of Chengdu. The Waldorf Astoria Chengdu has combined the Ba Shu culture of Chengdu with the modern temperament of New York without eclipsing, giving guests an unexpected surprise.
Immersed in such an environment, I will unconsciously feel the improvement of my status and taste. When I returned to the room the next day, I found more subtle details. The observant room attendant added me a few more bath salts. From the action of the guest's room yesterday, I will try to figure out the more detailed preferences of the guests. Waldorffs intentions dont need to be modified by too many languages.

[Chengdu Waldorf Astoria Hotel] "Kirin Boudoir" new dish tasting, full of ceremonial sense, authentic Italian flavor, makes me seem to return to last summer of Italy.
Italian gourmet chefs' superb live cooking brings you a cool Apennine peninsula.

In the winter season of December in winter, the most not to be missed in Chengdu is Waldorf's Christmas-themed afternoon tea. The hotel itself has superb Christmas decorations and a strong Christmas atmosphere. Afternoon tea is located on the 50th floor, where enjoying afternoon tea is like sitting in the clouds, accompanied by the city's beautiful skyline. The Waldorf Astoria Limited Edition is very cute in the afternoon tea. The tray is a Christmas tree. The desserts are cute snowmen, Santa Claus, and elk desserts. They are delicious and delicious.
Christmas season is hard to find here, the location of the window must be booked in advance.
Whether it's a boyfriend or a girlfriend, it's a good place to date, put on your beautiful clothes and have a sweet Christmas over the city.
Wish you guys have Unforgettably Red

After New York and Dubai, punch the third Waldorf. In the Christmas season, the hotel has already been replaced with Christmas decorations, and the flowers in the rooms have also been replaced. From the private concierge service to the hardware of the guest room, it can be said that this price/performance ratio is nothing to choose from in Chengdu. @dorf Hotel Join the top three of this year's love hotel.
The connotation of a hotel only depends on the elevator room and the bathroom. I have to say that the design of this elevator room in Chengdu is really more and more like it. The overall color is black, and then it is partially embellished with hot gold patterns. The buttons are simple and generous. On the jazz-style music, the body involuntarily followed the beat and shake, really want to stay in the elevator and never come out haha.
Into the room did not let me down, the flowers on the background wall behind the bed are fresh and refined, people are happy to see, the overall color of the house is also very refreshing, the cup inside the minibar looks It is very pleasing, the pattern on the TV wall in front of the bathtub makes people forget the intense journey of the day. The overall design of the house is a combination of Chinese and Western, which makes people can't help but admire the imagination of the designer.
