#InterContinental One Thousand Island Lake Resort Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
Qiandao Lake is one of the most successful reservoir-type lake scenic spots in China. This time I went to the Intercontinental Hotel and took a group of photos in the room. The five-star hotel set was super good and the location was good. Qiandao Lake has good water quality and good scenery. Each small island has its own characteristics and its appeal is quite large. The islands on different ships are different and may not be determined in advance. This is a bit inconvenient. The ticket is more than 200 yuan, and there may be additional charges on the island. At the same time, it also provides a boat meal, the taste is OK, it can be considered a special feature.

Everything cannot be possessed, only experienced
Lake of a Thousand Islands, I have visited many times. Each visit lingers in my memory.
Now, at this moment, I stand here again, in the natural bay created by the Intercontinental, I possess boundless tranquility, comfort, and peace.
At dawn, I stand on the terrace, with mountains shrouded in mist before me, greenery blending into the water, the lake serene and azure, everything is like smoke and clouds, without a single ripple.
And I, too, am without waves or misty rain, wanting to stay, yet continually moving forward, or perhaps, in some corner of my heart, I have already kept this haven, preserved the fresh green of this moment, a touch of maple red, a bloom anew.
Now, there is misty rain.
I walk into the rain, with the grass under my feet as soft as velvet, the rain also dyed with the season. Isn't it beautiful?
But I will not indulge, for all of this cannot be possessed, only experienced.

Water nourishes all things and thrives, while people swim in Qiandao Lake
The waters of the Xin'an River become gentle in Qiandao Lake, vast and boundless, calm and tranquil, melting a thousand peaks into one. The water merges with the sky, a house, a boat, a person, everywhere embodying the concept of taking from nature and giving back to nature, simple yet sophisticated.

Qiandao Lake is worth visiting every year
🚉Transportation Guide:
It takes 4~5 hours to drive from Shanghai. Although it's a bit tiring, the scenery along the way is worth it!
🗓Itinerary:
A 3-day and 2-night stay is quite suitable. Have a meal of Qiandao Lake fish head on the day of arrival. There's no need to be picky about which restaurant to choose, as there are many local restaurants near the scenic area, and any one of them will do. The price won't differ much, averaging about 100 to 120 RMB per person. On the second day, you can sign up for a day tour (I didn't join a group because I had been there once before), and I chose to drive around the peninsula. If you're not staying at the Qiandao Lake Intercontinental, I suggest driving to the hotel peninsula, where it's less crowded and quiet, and the lake view is absolutely stunning.
👍Most Recommended:
Consider visiting Meifeng Island in the central lake area at least once, where you can overlook the entire central lake area of Qiandao Lake.
The best time to visit the island is from April to June each year.
Qiandao Lake Intercontinental (if budget allows)
Qiandao Lake Sheraton (best value for money)
Qiandao Lake Greentown Resort Apartment (right next to Sheraton, perfect for those who are not particular about hotel star ratings, the rooms are quite spacious)

InterContinental Qiandao Lake Resort | Enjoy the beautiful sunset of Xianshan alone
| Enjoy the beautiful sunset of Xianshan alone. This is my second time to Qiandao Lake, and I chose to stay at the InterContinental Qiandao Lake Resort. The hotel occupies the Xianshan Peninsula of Qiandao Lake exclusively, and you can also tour Xianshan while staying at the hotel, which is very enjoyable~
.
I stayed in a lake-view luxury suite, and through the floor-to-ceiling windows, I could take in the beautiful scenery of Qiandao Lake. The room is very spacious, the sun shines warmly on my body, and it's relaxing and enjoyable~ The hotel also prepared a check-in courtesy for me, and the delicious desserts are very heartwarming~
.
When you walk out of the hotel, you can first pass by the Wishing Tree. I heard that wishes made here are very effective, and I also made my wish for 2023. Going forward is the Qiandao God Cow and Story Harbor. There is a beautiful love story here. After listening to the story, you might as well go to Lover's Gorge and Hidden Dragon and Crouching Tiger Cave. It's a different world~ The lakeside and the lighthouse are great for taking pictures and checking in~
.
Around six o'clock in the sunset, walk to the viewing platform, and you can see the beautiful sunset glow. The setting sun sets, reflecting on the sparkling lake, shining like gold, so beautiful, it really makes me sigh that Qiandao Lake is a fairyland on earth that I have to come back to. This beauty cannot be described in words, and the camera cannot capture it. You can only experience it in person.
.
In the hotel's Xian Chinese Restaurant, you must try the big fish head of Qiandao Lake. There is also a fish opening ceremony when eating, which is very interesting and full of ceremony. The fish head is fresh and delicious, the fish soup is thick and white, and with various Hangzhou dishes, I really enjoyed eating it. And the fish head of Xian Xiaoguan is made in front of you. This is the first time I have eaten such a delicious stove-top fat head fish~!
.
The hotel also arranges luxury yachts to play at Huangshan Tip. The cable car reaches the top, and you can see the islands of Qiandao Lake forming the word 'public' in 'The world is for the public', which is really a masterpiece of nature~ The two-day and one-night itinerary is full and happy~

The only king of Qiandao Lake Resort Hotel: Intercontinental Hotel! Super cost-effective!
I've always heard that: Qiandao Lake's resort hotels, only Intercontinental and others. I stayed for three days and two nights in the off-season, and it really lived up to its reputation.
Driving through the private road through the Arc de Triomphe, passing the iconic lighthouse, the Intercontinental that occupies the entire Xianshan Peninsula emerges. There is only this hotel on the entire island, which is definitely the most private existence in Qiandao Lake. The hotel uses the lake view to the extreme, the wooden doors of the lobby slowly open, and the moon door makes people stop. Shuttle in the starry corridor, Qiandao Lake is the backdrop. The sunset is also very beautiful, the lighthouse, the peninsula bar, and even the room are good places to watch the sunset, and the scenery is not inferior to West Lake.
Room
Although the Intercontinental Qiandao Lake opened in 2011, the hotel does not have too much sense of age, and the combination of wood and stone is still classic. We stayed in the executive lake view room on the seventh floor. The room design is not amazing. The most luxurious is the whole wall of lake and mountain scenery, half outdoors and half indoors. Even in the cold winter, you can sit by the window and bask in the sun.
As the only hotel on the Xianshan Peninsula, it means that the entire peninsula is the public area of the Intercontinental. You can ride along the lake, walk to the lighthouse, or go to the Xianshan Botanical Garden to find rare plants. The back mountain even hides a lover's gorge that only allows one person to pass through, like a real version of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, which may be a secret place that most guests have never reached.
The more hidden gameplay is island hopping, sitting on a health speedboat to the neighboring Huangshan Tip, climbing to the top of the mountain can see the textbook-like Qiandao Lake scenery.
The restaurant for dinner in the hotel is Xian Chinese Restaurant, which serves local dishes from Qiandao Lake, and the most famous is Qiandao Lake fish head.

Thousand Island Lake Resort Hotel, Intercontinental Resort Hotel
Autumn and winter may be the off-season for Thousand Island Lake, but definitely not for Intercontinental, because Intercontinental has hot springs. I've always heard that: the resort hotels in Thousand Island Lake, only Intercontinental and others. I stayed for three days and two nights in the off-season, and it really lived up to its reputation.

Driving a private road through the Arc de Triomphe, passing the iconic lighthouse, the Intercontinental that occupies the entire Xianshan Peninsula emerges. There is only this hotel on the entire island, which is definitely the most private existence in Thousand Island Lake. The hotel uses the lake view to the extreme, the wooden door of the lobby slowly opens, and the moon gate makes people stop. Shuttle in the starry corridor, Thousand Island Lake is the backdrop. The sunset is also very beautiful, the lighthouse, the peninsula bar, and even the room are good places to watch the sunset, and the scenery is no less than West Lake.
Room
Although the Thousand Island Lake Intercontinental opened in 2011, the hotel does not have too much sense of age, and the combination of wood and stone is still classic and enduring. We stayed in the executive lake view room on the seventh floor. The room design is not amazing. The most luxurious is a whole wall of lake and mountain views, half outdoors and half indoors. Even in the cold winter, you can sit by the window and bask in the sun.
Parent-child
It's also a great choice to bring a baby for a vacation. The details of the parent-child room are very in place. The indoor space by the window is made into tatami, which is friendly to two-child families. The hotel has an indoor children's playground of 1800 square meters, and there is a small train that will release the brave outdoors.
Activity
As the only hotel on the Xianshan Peninsula, Intercontinental means that the entire peninsula is the public area of Intercontinental. You can ride along the lake, walk to the lighthouse, or go to Xianshan Botanical Garden to find rare plants. The back mountain even hides a lover's gorge that only allows one person to pass through, like a real version of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, it may be a secret place that most guests have never reached.
The more hidden gameplay is island hopping. Take a health speedboat to the neighboring Huangshan Tip. You can see the textbook-like Thousand Island Lake scenery from the top of the mountain. It's just not cheap, the speedboat is 300/person, and the cable car to the top is 50/person.
The restaurant for dinner in the hotel is Xian Chinese Restaurant, which serves local dishes from Thousand Island Lake. The most famous is the Thousand Island Lake fish head. Eating fish head is very ceremonial, you need to use a pair of gold scissors to cut the ribbon for the fish head soup. Others, eggs, braised pork are also memorable dishes. There is also a Xianshan Restaurant in the resort, which attracts many non-hotel guests, and the taste is wilder than Xian Chinese Restaurant.
Breakfast is eaten in the all-day dining restaurant, with some live cooking stalls. The overall rule is that it is the standard of a five-star hotel breakfast.
Finally, good hardware can be newly created, but the king's position of one island and one hotel must be the first to arrive. Thousand Island Lake Intercontinental, worth it! Island Lake Island Lake Tourism Island Lake Hotel Island Lake Guide Vacation

The knot is in the human world, and there is no car and horse.
Thousand Island Lake is a holiday resort where many people enjoy watching the lake. The InterContinental Resort Thousand Island Lake lives alone on the Lushan Peninsula. The hotel's private 10km winding road makes the hotel far away from the dust, one island and one hotel. The hotel blends in with the natural scenery of the island. It is said that all the landscaping and greening of the hotel are made of ready-made grass and trees on the island, which is also to maintain the original ecological environment.
When you walk into the lobby, you can see the 360-degree round transparent glass window that gives you a panoramic view of the lake. Most of the lobby furnishings are made of solid wood, bamboo and rattan and fabric, and the design concept of closeness to nature is everywhere. The round glass window on the side of the lobby is the hallmark of the hotel. Almost every person who comes to Intercontinental Thousand Island Lake will take a photo of this window. At different times, different skylight colors are reflected.
The rooms that are bright and bright have a lot of solid wood elements, which are both environmentally friendly and luxurious. But if you live by the lake or the beach, as long as the price is not too far off the mark, I will choose the lake view room or the sea view room, so that you can enjoy the skylight clouds, sunrise and sunset, with a cup of tea or a cup without leaving the house. Coffee, with your family, slowly savour the scenery in front of you, so that is the ultimate pursuit of vacation.
As one of the best parent-child hotels in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai, there is also the killer of the largest indoor indoor beaver theme park in China. It is also the most detailed hotel park in terms of age for children.

The swimming pool at InterContinental Thousand Island Resort
Hotel is a highlight of the hotel and is divided into indoor and
outdoor swimming pools. The outdoor swimming pool has an infinity pool and the photos are very nice. The hotel has a special shop where you can buy swimming equipment. However, during the National Day, it was not working properly due to cleaning, but the waiter saw us taking pictures and allowed us to enter the pool for a short time. The weather on National Day has been a bit cold. There are not many people swimming outside. Most of them are concentrated in the indoor swimming pool for swimming. The water temperature in the indoor swimming pool is controlled, so it won't feel cold.
The indoor swimming pool is next to the gym. The gym is not big, but it is complete, the iron lifting project is a little less, and the treadmill is not a lot, but it looks good. When we went there, there was no coach in the gym. Some customers were trying out various equipments while wearing slippers. This method is very dangerous, and this supervision is not in place. Clean towels and drinking water are also placed at the entrance to the gym for guests to rest and quench their thirst.

beautiful sunset, is the time for dinner.
The hotel's normal buffet is not charged for service, but since this is an outdoor dinner specially prepared for National Day, the price has become 698 yuan. The main meal is seafood, including red lobster is also available in unlimited quantities. For those who like to eat seafood, not only can you enjoy the beautiful scenery of Qiandao Lake, but you can also enjoy delicious seafood dinner.

Our first meal here was eaten at the hotel's Chinese restaurant Restaurant. It was already more than nine o'clock in the evening, but the restaurant was still crowded with people.
Since it is already a meal, we dont count much. "Thousand Island Lake Organic Fish Head" is bound to come one, 488 yuan and a half, 728 yuan. We have half a fish head, and we can choose less salt and less oil. It took about 40 minutes from the order to the table. There was a simple ribbon-cutting ceremony. I cut the red paper on the casserole with scissors with beautiful patterns and said a few good wishes. The color head can also be cooked. There are red dates, glutinous rice, green vegetables, tofu and other ingredients. The fish soup full of white pot of flowers is very stomach-raising, and you can drink several bowls in one breath.
We also ordered another "up soup asparagus". There are ingredients such as shrimp and ham. The asparagus is very crispy, very elastic and very refreshing.

cafeteria has dinner, and today's cafeteria has changed to the outdoors. Not only is the ingredients rich, but I can also enjoy the beautiful sunset while eating here. There are resident singers to help everyone at the night. The scene is also playing a fluorescent party. Everyone dances with the songs and celebrates rare together. National Day holiday. Even the cold is happy, blending in with this beautiful night.

Family Room has a living room compared to the superior room. The comfortable fabric sofa can be lazy to lie up, and the stereo sound allows people to enjoy the stereo sound in every corner of the room. The soft carpet also adds a touch of warmth to the layout of the entire room. There are fresh fruits and mineral water on the coffee table. Sometimes the waiter will send two bottles of water because of the hot weather, and attach a warm note to make the guest feel at home.
Bathroom can be said to be a highlight of the whole room. The shape of the bathtub is like a half-sized egg with a marble water valve. The bath salt next to it is sprinkled inside, soaking a comfortable bathtub, you can also open the sliding door. Watching TV for a while, this kind of comfortable life has a feeling of vacation. All the toiletries in the bathroom come from the British professional spa brand Elemis. The shower room is decorated with pebbles for the wall. The hot water is very abundant. The hydroponic plants are also placed warmly on the small table. The towels are also fragrant. It looks very clean.

Qiandaohu Intercontinental Hotel
This was originally booked as a deluxe king room, but it was upgraded to a family room at the front desk for free. The unexpected joy made the tiredness of sitting in the car a little bit. ease.
Once you enter the room, you will feel that the trip to Thousand Island Lake is worth the money. One of the most popular is the large floor-to-ceiling windows. The beautiful Lushan Mountain is just outside. Its very pleasant to sit here every day. More magical is that the bedroom TV is hidden in the closet, this unique design is also the first time I saw it.
The layout of the entire room is both open and clear. All but one of the separate walk-in closets can be joined together. Of course, it is also possible to separate the functions by various sliding doors, and form an independent and private space.
Lemon Zhao.
Exquisite and luxurious details, natural and interesting decorative style, the perfect blend of gardens and lakes, and the exclusive experience of being at home, it makes people lazy.
The front desk staff is very welcoming and welcomes every visitor with a smile. Carefully check in for everyone and carefully explain the precautions for the passengers. Here you can also apply for the membership card of the InterContinental Hotel for free. There will be a discount on the consumption of the InterContinental Hotel. The whole mountain is such a resort hotel, which will definitely be used.

The first thing that comes into the lobby is the intercontinental net red punching card, 360-degree round transparent glass, which can take in the panoramic view of the whole Thousand Island Lake and is one of the symbols of InterContinental Hotel.
The lobby of the hotel is mostly made of solid wood. With the careful decoration of bamboo and rattan and fabric, the whole lobby looks simple and generous yet noble, showing the harmonious relationship between man and nature.
The concierge in the lobby can help you carry your luggage and receive the courier. There are several couriers sent to the hotel, and the staff have arranged for us to be there. If you need to travel and call, you can also make an appointment with the Concierge, where you can check out all the hotel's entertainment facilities and make an appointment.

There are no special arrangements for travel, just want to enjoy a slow time quietly, so I went to experience a few resorts with cold and cold, and I was a couple of leisurely couples. Our first stop is the InterContinental Thousand Island Resort in Qianshan Lake. Every weekend, every season in a pleasant climate, the rooms are in short supply. It can be said to be a tourist and resort hotel with good quality and reputation. The hotel is located on the Lushan Peninsula and the entire peninsula is contracted by the hotel. The hotel has built a private winding road, 10 kilometers away from the dusty island, the hotel has its own private vegetable garden, as well as a separate dock for colorful water projects, more known as gentleman sports golf The stadium is very colorful and entertaining. Half of the lake, half of the paradise, but the most intriguing of us is the infinity pool that has been shaken by fire, and the grand view of Qiandao Lake can be seen on the terrace of the hotel. It is really worthwhile.

Thousand Island Lake is only 2 hours drive from Hangzhou. It is a good place to relax on weekends. Qiandaohu Intercontinental is the only international luxury brand resort hotel in Qiandao Lake. It is the first choice for Qiandao Lake holiday. The administrative terrace on the 5th floor of InterContinental Hotel has 270° no dead end. Thousand Island Lake scenery, as well as private luxury yachts take you deep into the unpredictable Thousand Island Lake
