Conrad Hangzhou
Shangcheng, Qianjiang New Town, China

Conrad occupies the Raffles City complex, where curved architecture and high-level views give the hotel a distinctly modern identity. Rooms use warm wood and large windows, while the indoor pool, spa and fitness facilities make it easy to spend part of a day at the hotel. Li’An serves Chinese cooking on the 50th floor. Choose this address for the newer business district and skyline, with the understanding that the historic lakefront lies elsewhere in the city.
