Swan Lake hotel (Taierzhuang Ancient City Scenic Area Branch)  

On the banks of the ancient city's Beijing–Hangzhou Grand Canal, Swan Lake opened in 2024 as a high-star designer homestay. Expect direct canal and island views from the hotel and a front-row spot to neon-lit ancient-city nights.

This renovated designer hotel—styled by Professor Zhang Tao—keeps original architecture while adding full smart-home tech. There are 39 rooms, from king and twin rooms to parent-child rooms and suites, all with Dream Lily mattresses, Carnation bedding, dry–wet bathroom separation, TV and slippers. The place feels modern-meets-traditional with a Swan Lake at the heart of the property.

Dive into a pool, sip at the bar, or unwind in the restaurant and library. Leisure zones include outdoor camping, long-corridor strolls, fish-and-flower viewing, a gym, tea room and reading room. Practical perks include 24-hour free laundry, ironing/press service, parking zone, concierge and elevator access for guests with disabilities—so you can wake up to canal-side mornings and still pack light.

The hotel hosts a conference room and positions itself for company team building and group events. Smart voice controls and one-stop event support make it easy to run meetings and gatherings on-site.

On-site restaurant and bar serve local cuisine and dozens of breakfast delicacies to fuel canal-side exploration. A tea room adds a calm spot for regional flavors and slow mornings.
