Hilton Worldwide has launched its third Canopy by Hilton property in China, continuing the lifestyle brand’s expansion across the country.

The West Lake, Hangzhou’s famous UNESCO World Heritage Site, is now home to the 27th. Hilton canopy Hotel worldwide. We’ll find out more.

Unmatched access to Hangzhou

The 160-key Canopy by Hilton Hangzhou West is owned by the Zhejiang Xingcai Investment Company and is just 16 miles from the city’s international airport. It is also just a short walk from West Lake and the popular HuBin pedestrian zone, the city’s thoroughfare for business, retail and entertainment.

The hotel’s design reflects the city’s kaleidoscopic history as a center of cultural diversity. Aspects of Hangzhou’s local culture and architecture are incorporated into the design, meaning the property feels like a seamless and natural extension of the wider neighborhood. In addition, handicrafts and works of art by local artisans are displayed throughout the hotel.

“Hangzhou West Lake is famous for its rich cultural heritage and natural landscapes, and it is an increasingly popular vacation destination for travelers,” he said Qian Jin, Area President for Greater China and Mongolia, Hilton. “After the great success of the brand’s Asia-Pacific debut in Chengdu and Hangzhou Jinsha Lake, we are pleased to introduce Canopy by Hilton Hangzhou West Lake – our third Canopy by Hilton hotel in China.

“The property underscores our commitment to strong growth momentum in Greater China and will continue to provide our guests with positive hospitality experiences.”

The ultimate Hangzhou experience

Those who stay at the Canopy by Hilton Hangzhou West Lake will have no problem exploring the city on their own. The hotel’s free bike hire ensures guests get around with minimal effort.

The ultra-modern sleep technology in the room guarantees a good night’s sleep. And there is a varied F&B offering to discover based on local ingredients that put Hangzhou’s culinary traditions in the spotlight while giving them a modern twist.

“We are on a positive growth path for our Canopy by Hilton brand with the exciting opening of our third hotel in China and another five hotels due to open in other parts of Asia in the coming years,” he concluded Nils-Arne Schroeder, Vice President, Luxury and Lifestyle, Asia Pacific, Hilton.
