Within walking distance of West Lake, this surprising hotel offers the whole package: comfort, value and location. For those more disposed to taking public transport, cabs and buses in this area abound, and driving to points of interest is quick and inexpensive. Rooms here are generous in size, with contemporary wooden decor and the holiest of grails – free internet. Service from multi-lingual staff is dispatched with a smile and views over the city or the Lake are as therapeutic as a round of Tai Chi. Holidays ought to be leisurely and New Century Hotel makes relaxation that much easier with its position close to the Lake and within a short walk of restaurants and shopping.
