voco Xitang by IHG

A boutique IHG hotel on the edge of one of the Yangtze Delta's most intact ancient water towns, where stone bridges and covered canal corridors have been quietly ignoring modernity for centuries. The 113 rooms lean into the setting with blush walls and bold geometric headboards, and some look directly over the old town's rooftops. Five private dining rooms, named for Xitang's historic bridges, serve Cantonese, Hangzhou, and Jiangnan cooking.
