A Luxurious Stay Above the Clouds: My Experience at Radisson Hangzhou Bowang Center

As a landmark in Qianjiang Century City, Radisson Hangzhou Bowang Center draws inspiration from "refined living above the clouds," seamlessly blending Nordic design aesthetics with urban travel needs. From the moment I stepped into the lobby to my farewell, every detail left me wanting to relive the experience. ### 1. A View from the Clouds: Capturing Qianjiang New City’s Lights The guest rooms span floors 2 to 14, and my 48 sqm Executive River View Room was like an "aerial observatory." Floor-to-ceiling windows framed the shimmering Qiantang River and the sleek lines of the Olympic Sports Expo Center, while at night, the glittering skyline of Qianjiang New City across the river unfolded before my eyes. The room’s muted Morandi color palette—light gray carpets paired with haze-blue sofas—was complemented by abstract floral murals above the bed, echoing the brand’s philosophy of "harmony between nature and art." Practical touches like a smart toilet and Dyson hairdryer met every need, while a Nespresso machine and custom aromatherapy added a touch of ritual to the stay. ### 2. A Culinary Journey: From Michelin Stars to Coffee Labs - **Cloud Café’s** breakfast was a "benchmark for Hangzhou brunch": steamed soup dumplings with sweet, savory broth, traditional *Pian Er Chuan* noodles with pickled greens and bamboo shoots, and freshly baked croissants with flaky layers paired perfectly with handcrafted coffee. - For lunch, I visited the 5th-floor **Wen Xing Restaurant**, a Michelin-starred gem. Their signature roast duck lived up to its reputation—crisp, amber-like skin that melted with plum sauce, alongside honey-glazed char siu that was sweet but not cloying. - In the afternoon, I lounged at **Cloud Lounge** on the 2nd floor, sipping a "Zodiac Specialty Coffee" (Leo’s citrus-infused latte) as sunlight filtered through floral-patterned windows, casting dappled shadows—a moment of perfect slowness. ### 3. Rejuvenation: A 4,300 sqm Sky Oasis The fitness center was a "recharge station for urbanites": the sunlit indoor pool made morning laps feel like floating on clouds, while Technogym-equipped workout areas and a yoga studio with skyline views turned stretches into moments of clarity. The highlight? An outdoor tennis court where evening matches came with a backdrop of sunset hues spilling over Qianjiang New City—exercise with a romantic filter. ### 4. A Detail Lover’s Paradise: Thoughtful Touches - The Executive Lounge’s "Happy Hour" (6:30–10:00 PM) featured handcrafted cocktails and delicate bites. The staff remembered preferences—on my second visit, a lychee-infused gin and tonic awaited me. - Turndown service included a nightly sweet soup, not the usual silver fungus dessert but freshly stewed peach gum and snow fungus, accompanied by a handwritten note: "Rainy paths may be slippery—take an umbrella." Heartwarming. - At checkout, a farewell gift of custom scented sachets released citrus and cedarwood aromas—a fragrant memento to prolong the journey’s magic. ### Verdict: The Perfect Blend of Business and Leisure Whether for work or a weekend escape, this hotel strikes the ideal balance. A 5-minute walk to Metro Line 2 and 20 minutes to the airport ensures seamless business travel, while river views, Michelin dining, and wellness facilities effortlessly switch gears to vacation mode. If travel is about "finding a sense of belonging in unfamiliar places," Radisson achieves just that—with just the right warmth to turn every stay into a memory worth keeping.
