Hyatt Centric Lakeside Ningbo, nestled beside Tongxin Lake, is an explorer's haven. Embracing Ningbo's heritage and port city essence, the hotel's contemporary architecture and interior design mirror the region's charm. Wooden shutters foster a cozy ambiance, enhancing the overall atmosphere.
The lobby's colors shift with the main concept of 'mahjong,' a game rooted in Ningbo’s fishermen’s living wisdom. As people gathering and seasons changing are the main spirit of all, they seamlessly integrated into the architecture design through space planning and material selection. Cultural enrichment is amplified by showcasing local crafts like traditional nail bowl art, enriching travelers' experiences. Spatial innovation defines the reception area—sculptural counters bridge guest-staff relations. The layout intertwines diverse zones—Chinese restaurant, club lounge, lobby lounge, and game room—fluidly demarcated by design elements rather than physical barriers. It’s thoughtful space planning ensures operational efficiency. This also synergy with urban and natural surroundings cultivates a harmonious indoor-outdoor blend, elevating the spatial allure.
