Hilton’s lifestyle brand Canopy by Hilton has announced the recent opening of its first hotel in the Asia Pacific, Canopy by Hilton Chengdu City Centre.
Located next to Tianfu Square, the commercial and historical heart of Chengdu, Canopy Chengdu City Centre welcomes guests with a positive stay and provides a truly immersive, locally-inspired experience. The property is owned by Leading Group and managed by Hilton.
The hotel is located in the heart of Chengdu’s most popular dining and nightlife corridor, allowing guests to explore Sichuan opera houses, night markets and other exciting sights with ease. The hotel is also within walking distance to some of the city’s finest cultural sites, including Chengdu Museum, Peoples Park, the Qingyang Taoist Temple, Kuanzhai Lane and Wenshu Monastery, the largest monastery in Chengdu.
Canopy Chengdu City Centre has been thoughtfully designed to incorporate Chengdu’s local cultural and architectural elements, making it a seamless and natural extension of the neighborhood. Featuring warm gray tones to create a relaxing atmosphere with touches of refreshing orange hues, every element of the hotel was refined according to the city’s landmarks including markets, tea culture, Sichuan opera, spicy food and atmospheric alleyways. A retail wall is also curated with the best Chengdu has to offer, including authentic artifacts and crafts from local shops and artisans.
Just-Right rooms
From digital check-in to heated bathroom floors, the 150 Just-Right rooms ranging from 50 to 100 square meters have been designed for ease and comfort. The canopy over the bed creates an ideal sleeping environment along with each room’s Serta mattress, which is complemented with a ZoneActive™ 5-Zone Foam Topper for the right amount of support and Serta Cool Balance® Technology for optimal temperature control. Guests can also pamper themselves with a rain shower, Acca Kappa and Tara Smithbath amenities and cozy bathrobes. Other room amenities include Canopy’s signature “uncloseted” closet, a 55-inch TV, a Nespresso® machine, generous workspace and complimentary Wi-Fi.
Guests can enjoy a workout with a view at the fitness center on the 32ndfloor, which overlooks the city skyline. The 24-hour fitness center is well equipped with a boxing ring, the latest Technogym® equipment and free weights. For those who have other fitness preferences, Enthusiasts can connect guests with neighborhood partners for a diverse range of experiences.
The new property also boasts a Transfer Lounge, the first-of-its-kind in China, where guests with early arrivals or late departures can use comfortable facilities including luggage lockers, a private changing cabin and showers.
Eat, drink, smile
The east-meets-west concept is also brought to life through the hotel’s modern dining options. Guests can start the day with a self-serve artisanal breakfast made with fresh, local ingredients in Canopy Central Cafe or have a breakfast bag delivered to their door. TC Cafe offers dishes including western breakfasts, homemade local noodles, a selection of light bites and Chengdu’s renowned Long Chaoshou wonton soup. In the evening, the cafe offers a signature tapas dinner, where guests can enjoy both local and international small plates for sharing. Open all day, the Canopy Lounge serves light bites, and offer complimentary tasting of signature cocktails, wines, local craft beers and teas every evening from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m.
