**🌁 Chongqing Jiefangbei High-Rise Hotel 3-Night Experience | Above the Clouds, Panoramic City Views!** 
**📍 Location: Prime Jiefangbei position, 10-minute walk to Hongyadong/Yangtze River Cableway** 
Coming to Chongqing without staying in a high-rise hotel is a wasted trip! This time I chose 3 high-rise hotels in the **core Jiefangbei area** for 3 consecutive nights. Waking up each day to the stunning views of the two rivers converging and the Yuzhong Peninsula was absolutely incredible! 
### **🏨 Day 1: The Westin Chongqing Jiefangbei—51st floor sky lobby + infinity pool** 
The Westin's **51st floor sky lobby** took my breath away the moment I entered! 360° panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows showcase the Yangtze River, Jialing River, and Nanshan Mountain—perfect for photos while checking in 📸. 
**✨ Must-visit spots:** 
- **54th floor transparent infinity pool**: Suspended 200 meters high with Jiefangbei CBD right below your feet—even more spectacular when the lights come on at night! 
- **Jin Yao Xuan Hotpot Restaurant**: Enjoy healthy hotpot on the 53rd floor next to the transparent pool where you can watch "mermaid performances"—the atmosphere is amazing! 
- **Heavenly Bed**: The Westin's signature bed truly leaves you refreshed, with incredibly comfortable bedding! 
**🍽️ Dining:** The Seasonal Tastes restaurant offers a sumptuous breakfast buffet with a special section for energizing foods that fitness enthusiasts will love! 
### **🏨 Day 2: InterContinental Chongqing Raffles City—250-meter crystal corridor + sky forest** 
On the second day, I moved to the InterContinental Raffles City, where the **42nd floor sky lobby** brought me to tears! The entire lobby resembles a tropical rainforest with a 250-meter crystal corridor spanning 4 buildings, like stepping into the future 🌿. 
**✨ Must-visit spots:** 
- **"Chong Lin" Restaurant**: Enjoy breakfast buffet surrounded by greenery with sunlight streaming through the glass ceiling—such a healing atmosphere! 
- **Executive King Room**: 270° river views with a bathtub directly facing the confluence of the two rivers—soaking while enjoying Yuzhong Peninsula's night view is incredible! 
- **Sky Bar "Jing"**: The afternoon tea set for two at 398 yuan is worth it for the view alone. At night it transforms into a bar—super chill for drinks with a night view~ 
**🚶♀️ Surroundings:** Chaotianmen Square is just downstairs, and it's only a 10-minute walk to Hongyadong—super convenient for seeing the "Spirited Away"-like night scenery! 
### **🏨 Day 3: ISEYA Floating Cloud High-Rise Hotel—glass-bottom pool + window-side bathtub** 
For the last day, I chose the **trending ISEYA Floating Cloud**, which offers amazing value! Every room has floor-to-ceiling windows with bathtubs suspended by the window—the Raffles City crystal corridor right below your feet makes every photo look like a magazine spread! 
**✨ Must-visit spots:** 
- **Glass-bottom pool**: A heart-racing challenge where looking down while swimming reveals a 200-meter drop—thrilling and photogenic! 
- **Smart home features + JBL speakers**: Automatic curtains, lighting, and toilet, plus Bluetooth speakers—soaking in the bath while listening to music is pure bliss~ 
- **Butler service**: They create a group chat before check-in and recommend authentic local hotpot places that are much better than tourist traps! 
**🚇 Transportation:** Direct access from Chaotianmen Station on Metro Line 1, super close to Jiefangbei, Hongyadong, and the Yangtze River Cableway. 
### **📌 3-Night Experience Summary:** 
1. **The Westin**—Perfect for luxury experiences, infinity pool is a must-visit! 
2. **InterContinental Raffles City**—Sky forest + crystal corridor, futuristic vibes! 
3. **ISEYA Floating Cloud**—Great value, young people's favorite, absolutely amazing for photos! 
**💡 Tips:** 
- Staying at different hotels for 3 nights offers a richer experience! 
- River-view rooms should be booked in advance as they sell out quickly during peak season~ 
- Hongyadong gets extremely crowded after 8 PM—enjoying the night view from a hotel sky bar is much more comfortable!
