Guangzhou Aranya Jiulong Lake y Hotel

Guangzhou's new artsy check-in spot is here! This time I stayed at the CTS Aranya Jiulong Lake yHOTEL, a minimalist aesthetic space that design hotel enthusiasts must visit - every shot looks like a masterpiece 🎨 🌳 Secret garden location Nestled by Jiulong Lake in Huadu District, just 30 minutes from Baiyun Airport with accurate GPS navigation. Though secluded, you'll never get bored - the entire Jiulong Lake resort area serves as its backyard, where morning jogs reveal stunning lakeside scenery. ✨ Designer's hidden gems Created by a renowned design team, yHOTEL is full of thoughtful details: the lobby's book wall is an Instagram hotspot with 270° floor-to-ceiling windows framing the lake like a painting; custom furniture fills the rooms, even light switches exude sophistication; the rooftop infinity pool is absolutely breathtaking at sunset when pink skies reflect on the water. 🏡 Room type tips • Lakeview rooms: Top choice! Sunlight creates beautiful patterns through the blinds • LOFT rooms: Feature fun slides perfect for families with kids • Courtyard rooms: Private gardens ideal for stargazing 🍽️ Culinary delights • Semi-buffet breakfast with authentic Cantonese rice rolls and wonton noodles • Lobby bar's tea-based cocktails - try "Lychee Summer" or "Lakeside" • 10-minute drive to local restaurants serving amazing roasted chicken and tofu 📸 Photo guide 1.
