A historic villa turned lakeside retreat on the shores of Hangzhou’s West Lake
Everything about Qiushui Villa is designed to press pause on the bustle of modern life. A beautifully restored century-old villa, it fuses the very best of China’s rich history with contemporary comforts. Add to the mix a never-too-much-to-ask European dining, butler service and a stunning infinity pool, and you have a truly luxurious escape.
The central courtyard – inspired by ancient Jiangnan architecture – sets the scene, flanked by stone statues and vibrant flowers, with steps leading over a shimmering pool to the front door. The rooms and suites continue this theme, with modern design touches and handpicked antique furniture. A spacious garden deck is perfect for holiday reading, while a state-of-the-art fitness suite is available for personal workouts.

The star of the show here is undoubtedly Hangzhou’s magical West Lake. Visit in the early morning to watch mist rise from the serene waters, or explore its many winding causeways and bridges by bike. For something a little different, learn about Hangzhou’s links to the Great Silk Road at the China National Silk Museum, then see breath-taking Buddhist architecture at the Lingyin Temple.
