"Our birthday trip was truly unforgettable! We celebrated my birthday with family at the InterContinental Foshan Poly, and we were absolutely pampered from the moment we checked in until we left. This hotel definitely deserves a glowing review!
🌟 **Superb Location, Breathtaking Views**
The hotel is situated right by Qiandeng Lake. From our window, we enjoyed stunning lake views – lush greenery during the day and twinkling lights at night, making it feel like we were living inside a painting. The name 'Qiandeng Lake' (Thousand Lanterns Lake) is quite fitting, as thousands of lights illuminate the lakeside in the evenings, creating a truly magical atmosphere. Since its completion in 2001, this landmark area has become a popular spot in Foshan for family outings, photography, and simply unwinding.
🎂 **Full of Birthday Surprises**
I had mentioned it was for a birthday in my booking notes, and I was absolutely delighted the moment we stepped into our room! It was decorated so warmly, with a birthday card and balloons on the bed, and an exquisite birthday cake on the table – truly a thoughtful touch! The kids were also thrilled to receive their own special gifts from the hotel, including small toys and picture books. A big thank you to Irene Lin and the front desk team for their meticulous arrangements.
🏨 **Utmost Room Comfort**
We stayed in a spacious lake view room, beautifully designed with a modern aesthetic subtly blended with traditional Lingnan elements. The attention to detail was impeccable. We particularly loved the electric curtains and the adjustable mood lighting. Enjoying a drink by the window while taking in the lake view at night was incredibly atmospheric and relaxing.
🍽️ **Seamless Dining & Entertainment**
The hotel's Chinese restaurant specializes in authentic Cantonese cuisine, offering both delicious food and attentive service. Breakfast, served on the 1st floor, boasted a dazzling array of choices; even the pickiest eaters among the children found something they loved. While the Executive Lounge's afternoon tea was excellent, we were too busy enjoying ourselves out and about to make it back for happy hour.
👨👩👧👦 **Exceptionally Family-Friendly**
This hotel is genuinely perfect for families with children. They provided everything for the little ones: kids' slippers, bathrobes, amenity kits, and even welcome drinks. The staff were incredibly patient and wonderfully friendly towards the children, making us all feel as relaxed and comfortable as if we were at home.
💎 **Member Benefits Fully Honored**
As an IHG Diamond member and Trip.com Black Diamond member, all my benefits were seamlessly arranged: a room upgrade, late check-out, welcome drinks, and Executive Lounge access. The front desk even made a special note of our member status, which made the entire check-in and stay experience exceptionally smooth and pleasant.
Overall, our birthday trip to InterContinental Foshan Poly was absolutely perfect. We enjoyed a comfortable stay, delicious food, and left with a wealth of wonderful surprises and cherished memories. Without a doubt, this will be our first choice for accommodation the next time we visit Foshan! 🌈"
