Crowne Plaza Chengdu Panda Garden

Tucked into northern Chengdu beside the Giant Panda Breeding Research Base, this five-star hotel sits on Shu Long Boulevard in Xindu District. It’s about 37 km from Chengdu Shuangliu International Airport and roughly 17 km (about 30 minutes by car) from Chengdu East Railway Station, with easy access to Poly Lafite Golf Club, the Two Thousand Acres Music Theme Park, Wide and Narrow Alley, Beihu Park and Zhaojue Temple.

The property offers 345 guestrooms and suites that marry classical Chinese touches—osmanthus accents and large flower-and-bird embroidery—with modern essentials like refrigerators, minibars, LCD TVs, work desks and complimentary wired and wireless internet. Bathrooms commonly feature shower/tub combinations, complimentary toiletries and bathrobes, and select rooms connect to a private club floor and lounge for extra perks.

Pamper yourself at a full-service spa, keep fit in the fully equipped gym, or choose between an indoor heated pool and a dramatic outdoor infinity sun pool with a beach-style deck; a nightclub, VIP lounge and a private 77,000-square-meter landscape garden with pavilions and a garden chapel round out the leisure options. Complimentary area shuttle and free self-parking make exploring nearby attractions easy.

The hotel features extensive event facilities—up to 2,000 square meters of indoor event space, including eight meeting rooms and a grand ballroom—backed by a dedicated meetings team and an on-site business center. Complimentary wired and wireless internet and meeting support keep conferences and corporate events running smoothly.

Three on-site restaurants and a café serve regional and global flavors, from authentic Sichuan specialties and classic Cantonese cuisine to French and European pastries, homemade breads and custom celebration cakes. There’s also 24-hour room service and a lively bar/lounge for after-dinner drinks.
