The Hotel enjoys a panorama of lake view, with white walls and black tiles, pavilions, rockeries and cloisters presenting the characteristics of a water town in South China. The interior design draws inspiration from traditional garden culture and the Red Culture, showing the charm of the resonance between the quaint and exquisite South-China culture and the contemporary exquisite life.

Magnificence prevails when entering the hotel lobby. In the 10-meter high space, the top surface refines and reorganizes the beam frame of waterside pavilion in southern region, forming the focus of the whole space from column to top. The combination of the traditional Chinese-style patterns with the five-pointed star pattern evolves into a new design language. The towering lake-green screen highlights the sense of spatial sequence and enriches the sense of depth. The main installation "Dawn", which sets the background of the lobby, adopts the process of stacking and grinding lacquer painting, showing the scene of glowing rays and rippling blue waves on the lake surface of South Lake at sunrise. Luxurious and calm design and embedded cultural symbols add more interest to the lobby space.

The well-planned space layout is divided into three parts: the magnificent lobby in the front, the reclusive atrium in the middle, where the tranquility and serenity are experienced, and the restaurant, where a wide variety of delicious food can be enjoyed.

Antiquity and novelty are carefully mixed in the lobby lounge, where lake-green screens, orange furniture, fashionable lamps, art books, ceramic pieces of ornaments, etc., show the contemporary lifestyle and Chinese elegance, giving full and cultural freshness to the space.

The full-time restaurant is adjacent to the hall bar, with interlaced and orderly overall space layout. The design draws inspiration from South China architecture, using elements such as door sash and grille and wood, metal mesh, bronze and leather to create an active dining environment.
