Taiyuan's iconic InterContinental Hotel is a must-stay for visitors, offering a one-stop experience

Since its opening, the Taiyuan InterContinental Hotel has set a new benchmark for the hotel industry in Taiyuan. To this day, it remains the best hotel in Taiyuan. It is the first InterContinental brand hotel in Taiyuan and even in Shanxi Province. Guests staying at the hotel can enjoy the 'InterContinental Life' while experiencing the comfort of 'Knowing and Traveling in Taiyuan'. The hotel is located in the heart of the Changfeng Business District in Taiyuan, which is the core intersection of the city's economy, politics, and culture. It offers a view over the entire CBD and the Fen River landscape. The surrounding area is very well-developed, with walking access to MixC Shopping Mall, Taiyuan Art Gallery, Taiyuan Museum, Shanxi Grand Theater, and other cultural landmarks of the city. All major attractions in Taiyuan are also within a reasonable driving distance. For business travelers, the hotel is the best place to stay in the whole of Taiyuan. The interior design of the hotel was passionately created by PLD Liu Bo, with a design concept that reflects the natural endowment of Shanxi's mountains and rivers, and the beauty of Shanxi's culture and heritage. In spaces such as the lobby, restaurant, and guest rooms, elements such as mountain shapes, Shanxi merchant houses, and Shanxi merchant culture are presented, conveying the delicate beauty of the space without losing its dignified and elegant posture. The lobby space is very open and atmospheric, seamlessly connected to the lobby bar and the all-day dining restaurant, with clear movement lines and well-organized spaces. The hotel has a total of 330 deluxe rooms & suites, with room sizes starting from 45 square meters. The overall design unfolds with the theme of 'Shanxi Charm, Grandeur from Antiquity', creating a living space that integrates humanity and the environment for travelers. The design is modern and elegant, with art pieces featuring one of China's four famous lacquers, the heritage craft of Shanxi polished lacquer, which is both elegant and ancient, coexisting with delicate brilliance. Importantly, the rooms offer very nice views, either of the cityscape or the Fen River, allowing guests to enjoy both the city's prosperity and the natural tranquility and harmony. The dining options are distinctive, including three restaurants & bars: Caifenglou Chinese Restaurant, Yuan•Ka All-Day Dining Restaurant, and the Lobby Bar, with the InterContinental Executive Lounge located on the second floor. Caifenglou Chinese Restaurant specializes in Cantonese cuisine, and the executive chef is Mr. Liang Jianwen from Hong Kong. The restaurant focuses on private dining rooms, with not many seats for walk-in customers, making it a high-end Chinese restaurant for business banquets and family gatherings in Taiyuan. Yuan•Ka All-Day Dining Restaurant currently offers buffet dinner every weeknight, and a la carte lunch. Overall, the quality is among the top in Taiyuan. A particularly memorable feature is the way the lobster is served on a special cart, as well as the specially made tiramisu delivered by the chef on a cart, which is an interesting way of serving.
