Banyan Tree Hangzhou (Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province) Verified Reviews | Tablet Hotels

"In a sense, Hangzhou is the furthest thing from an undiscovered destination. Marco Polo, not really one to keep a lid on his travel discoveries, declared the city “beyond dispute the finest and noblest in the world” back in the 13th century, and even then, the natural beauty of Hangzhou’s craggy hills and placid waterways, its cultural richness and its vibrancy as a trading port, had already been immortalized in Chinese art and literature many times over. So admittedly we’re all a little late to the party here, but in case you haven’t heard, Hangzhou is having something of a moment — and the Banyan Tree, a luxurious all-villa resort set in a vast and misty wetlands preserve fifteen minutes outside of town, has arrived just in time." - Tablet Hotels
