This hotel *is* the destination.
Ahead of the bustling Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day, I traveled to a city for one particular hotel. I wanted to experience the unique charm of Chongqing's premier hotel without getting lost in the crowds of Hongyadong. From two top-tier luxury options, I ultimately chose SUNYATA Chongqing, a secluded resort hotel tucked away in a deep alley.
Before check-in, the butler called me and provided the front desk number, 191320... When I arrived at the drop-off point at the agreed time, Manager Zhang, the butler, and others were already waiting for me. We completed the check-in directly in the room, which was very convenient. After a long and tiring journey, I immediately noticed the film sound system in the room. I turned on some music and enjoyed a moment of relaxation.
The room offered an excellent view, directly overlooking the river. Even while soaking in the bathtub, I could see the monorail bridge across the way. For sleep, the bedside panel allowed me to close the curtains and sheer blinds. The stay included a double breakfast, served at JUST CHILL Restaurant (LG floor via elevator) from 8:00 AM to 10:30 AM. Since this restaurant is street-facing and shared with general tourists, a room card was required for breakfast. However, this did not diminish the superb quality of the morning meal. The fresh shrimp sandwich was delicious, and the cold beef salad was exceptionally tasty. Afternoon tea, with a 'Far Travels in the City' theme, was served from 2:00 PM to 6:00 PM, also at JUST CHILL Restaurant (LG floor via elevator). It's worth noting that hotel guests could also enjoy afternoon desserts at any time in the exclusive guest area outside the Baiya Restaurant, adjacent to the hotel lobby. That evening, we received turndown service, which included a sweet glutinous rice ball soup. My favorite spot during this stay was the exclusive guest lounge, The Moss Ground (1st floor), which offered complimentary coffee, soft drinks, snacks, and book borrowing. The minibar drinks in the room were also complimentary. Check-out time was at 12:00 PM, and because my baby took a nap, they kindly extended our check-out time, which was very thoughtful and customer-friendly. When it was time to leave, I contacted Butler Xu Ying to help with our luggage. One more thing that I was particularly pleased with: the photographers from Zixuan Photography – Yancheng – were incredibly patient and took high-quality photos for us.
In summary, this was a luxury resort hotel with a sophisticated aesthetic, crafted by a dedicated team. It even made me postpone my stay at another top luxury hotel in Chongqing (Li Jing) again.
