Lobby🏛️
As the rebranded successor of The Puyu (a LHW member), this property carries an inherent DNA of independent luxury. Ancient Chu cultural elements hide in plain sight – hitching posts amidst bamboo groves and bronze artifacts🗿. The ten-meter-high book wall stretching from floor to ceiling, interspersed with thread-bound classics and bronzeware, creates the illusion of stepping into a contemporary art museum. Its "Urban Oasis" design language and Zen aesthetic fusion justify its reputation as "the least Hyatt-like Hyatt", making it a unique presence in Wuhan's hospitality scene. The overwhelming design sensibility🪙 cements its place as one of my most memorable hotel experiences.
Room Design🏠
The 68-sqm suite feels more spacious than its dimensions suggest, featuring a sensible square layout (with a walk-in closet connecting living room and bathroom). Ancient book📓 replicas and cultural artifacts throughout enhance the immersive atmosphere. Complimentary minibar includes a thoughtful small sink.
The mid-century modern aesthetic, devoid of flashy colors, offers timeless appeal. Photogenic wabi-sabi style permeates the space, complete with a freestanding bathtub🛁 and sunset🌇 views through expansive windows. Post-dinner relaxation here radiates perfect ambiance~ Followed by workouts at the gym or pool🏊🏻♀️, it's the epitome of a comfortable getaway~
Service✨
Front desk staff👩🏻💼 exude gentle professionalism, with manners that make guests feel genuinely welcomed. When requesting cocktails (Baileys included) with evening snacks, though a new staff member lacked mixology skills, they earnestly sought solutions rather than refusing – a refreshing approach!
Breakfast Buffet: 🍱
As lavish as dinner service, featuring authentic Wuhan specialties: hot dry noodles🍜, sanxian doupi, mianwo, egg wine, etc., alongside Western options. Remarkably, coffee gets served tableside! This breakfast alone feels worth half the room rate!
