Enveloped in lush greeneries and calm waters, the hotel sits within China's first wetland reserve, the Xixi National Wetland Park, which is home to an amazing wealth of thriving plant and animal life. From its tiled roofs and ivory walls, to the elaborate décor of each suite and villa, it is an exemplary depiction of traditional Chinese architecture and modern comforts, set within tranquil natural surroundings. In addition to a lobby area with 24-hour reception and check-out services, facilities available to guests at this air-conditioned club resort include a breakfast room, dining room and conference facilities. Guests arriving by car may leave their vehicles in the hotel car park for a fee.

All of the 72 suites and villas combine the hallmarks of oriental and contemporary design. Reflecting the four glorious seasons of the year, all suites and villas are available in four colour themes of autumn, winter, spring and summer. The high ceilings are accented by hand-painted silk brocades hanging over the beds. Standard features of accommodation units include a bathtub, direct dial telephone, satellite/cable TV and a minibar, as well as tea and coffee making facilities, individually regulated air conditioning and a safety deposit box.

The restaurants are well equipped in an intimate atmosphere, providing extensive Chinese and western food.
