The hotel has a dumbbell layout of guest rooms and public areas, with the hotel lobby in the middle and multiple courtyards in the internal space of the building. It not only creates a good internal landscape environment, but also maximizes the river view and good sunlight and ventilation for the guest rooms and public areas.

In order to strengthen the connection between the hotel and the commercial street across the river, we added a new stone bridge, using old stones collected from the surrounding area, which blends in with the environment and allows a better communication between the visitors and the guests on both sides of the river.

   This open neighborhood and space may have some influence on the residents, but we think this openness will be more human spirit, because we are living in Jiangnan, which has a soul, people and voice. In the hotel, say hello to the tourists on the other side of the river, in fact, it is not a scenery.
