Huizhou, this peaceful riverside town, is perfectly captured by the Renaissance Huizhou Hotel, a classic Marriott property, framing the shimmering Dong River and the old town’s lively atmosphere through its floor-to-ceiling windows🌆
📍 Prime Location!
• Located in the core area north of the river, to the east lies the winding Dongjiang Park cycling path, to the west you can stroll to the Ten Views of West Lake, and the Huamao Tiandi business district is right downstairs.
• The best part is the high-altitude view: the 29th-floor double-height lobby bar faces Hejiang Tower, and the 46th-floor executive lounge offers simultaneous views of the traffic on Goose City Bridge and the boats on West Lake.
🏨 Cloud-Level Stay Experience
• Taking the high-speed elevator to the 29th floor to check in, the panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows reveal the dusk-lit Dong River spreading out like a golden ribbon, inviting you to admire Huizhou’s cityscape of half mountains and half lake.
• The rooms are spacious; if you can choose the 270-degree river view room or the executive suite, your stay experience will be greatly enhanced.
• It’s impressive that this well-established hotel, over a decade old, maintains such a high standard: electric curtains glide silently, bathtubs gleam like new, and the high-altitude pool facilities and environment remain heartwarming💓
🚴 Nearby Activity Tips
• Cycling route: Hotel → Dongjiang Park riverside greenway → Hejiang Tower → Shuidong Street (about 40 minutes total)
• Night cruise: A 20-minute taxi ride to Honghua Lake Scenic Area, where at 8 PM there is a light show projected on the lake surface
• Local secret: Every Saturday morning at Fengzhu Garden in West Lake there is a guzheng performance; grab a takeaway coffee from the hotel and enjoy it for a super relaxing time
⚠️ Notes
√ It’s recommended to choose a "river view room" rather than a "city view room" (the price difference is less than 100 RMB but the view is two levels better)
√ The buffet dinner is rich and varied; try to arrive early for a window seat
√ Families with children can get a free baby crib and the hotel also provides children’s bathrobes and slippers
This hotel, which takes "cloud living aesthetics" to the extreme, perfectly embodies the essence of Huizhou’s slow life—capturing a city of mountains and waters, two rivers and moonlight, from the height of the 46th floor.
