The ultimate autumn and winter family outing! The family-friendly secret of InterContinental Qiandao Lake

In autumn and winter, Qiandao Lake boasts clear waters and tranquil forests, making it the perfect season for a family vacation. The InterContinental Qiandao Lake, with its unique one-island-one-hotel advantage, comfortable hot springs, and rich family experiences, has become the top choice for autumn and winter family holidays. Here, parents and children can escape the city's hustle and fully enjoy the beauty of nature. Driving along a private road, passing the magnificent Arc de Triomphe and the iconic lighthouse, the InterContinental Qiandao Lake is nestled deep within Xianshan Peninsula. The entire island hosts only this one hotel, offering excellent privacy, like a private family playground. The hotel's design makes full use of the lake views; the moon gate in the lobby is exquisite and elegant, the starry corridor is romantic and beautiful, and every corner offers breathtaking views of Qiandao Lake. The autumn and winter sunsets are especially enchanting—watching the sunset turn the lake golden from the lighthouse, the peninsula bar, or the floor-to-ceiling windows in the room, you can feel the gentle and magnificent embrace of nature. 🛏️Rooms The hotel rooms may not be stunning but are exceptionally comfortable and practical. The classic combination of wood and stone fills the room with warmth, without any sense of aging. We stayed in an executive lake-view room on the seventh floor, whose biggest highlight is a full wall of floor-to-ceiling windows, revealing the autumn and winter lake and mountain scenery in full. In the cold season, sitting by the window with children, basking in the warm sunlight and admiring the beautiful view outside, is incredibly cozy. The family rooms are thoughtfully designed, with spacious tatami areas by the window, easily accommodating families with two children. Kids can play and roll around freely, happy and carefree. 👶Family The hotel’s family facilities are exceptional, so you never have to worry about boredom when traveling with kids. The 1,800-square-meter indoor children's playground is fully equipped with various play facilities, including slides, a ball pit, and a building block area. Kids have a blast as soon as they enter, while parents can relax nearby with peace of mind. The outdoor mini train is a favorite among children; accompanied by the familiar tune of "The Lonely Brave," the train slowly winds through the park, offering stunning autumn and winter countryside views, with children’s laughter echoing across the peninsula. 🎡Activities The entire Xianshan Peninsula is the hotel’s public area, offering a wide variety of family activities. You can take your children cycling along the lakeside to enjoy the fresh autumn and winter air; hike to the lighthouse, learning about various plants and admiring the scenery along the way while building children’s endurance; visit the Xianshan Botanical Garden to discover rare plants, allowing kids to gain knowledge while getting close to nature. The Lover’s Gorge at the back mountain is a hidden gem with narrow paths full of adventure, perfect for exploring with children and experiencing the wonders of nature. Island hopping is a must—take a wellness speedboat to Huangshanjian, and after climbing to the top, you can overlook the stunning panoramic view of Qiandao Lake, letting children feel the grandeur of nature. 🍽Dining The hotel offers an outstanding dining experience. The Xian Chinese Restaurant’s Qiandao Lake fish head dish is exceptional, with a ribbon-cutting ceremony that sparks children’s curiosity. The fish is tender and flavorful, and the broth is rich and delicious. Home-style dishes like native chicken eggs and braised pork are also authentically prepared, leaving a lasting impression. The Xianshan Restaurant offers more distinctive flavors and is loved by diners. Breakfast is served at the all-day dining restaurant with a wide variety of options, including made-to-order stations catering to different tastes, as well as snacks and drinks suitable for children, ensuring they eat happily and healthily.
