Cordis, Foshan, Lingnan Tiandi

Every one of the 390 rooms has a private balcony, and on a clear day the view runs from centuries-old temples to glass towers still finding their reflections. This full-service hotel sits inside the Lingnan Tiandi district, where the Michelin Guide has taken note, and the interiors lean into that heritage with warm woods and soft lighting without turning the whole thing into a museum. Cantonese cooking at Lingnan Garden and a terrace bar round out the stay.
