Upscale IHG-brand hotel on the north bank of the Yellow River near the Gansu International Convention and Exhibition Center; separate from the Crowne Plaza New Area property, which is at 1020 Huanghe Avenue.
Crowne Plaza Lanzhou is an upscale IHG-brand hotel at 1 North Binhe East Road in Chengguan District, on the north bank of the Yellow River in Lanzhou, the capital of Gansu province in northwest China. It stands near the Gansu International Convention and Exhibition Center, which makes it a natural choice for visitors attending trade fairs and conferences, and it should not be confused with the separate Crowne Plaza New Area property at 1020 Huanghe Avenue. The riverside district is within a short taxi ride of the Zhongshan Bridge area and the city's main sights, and the river path gives guests a pleasant place to walk in the evening. The hotel follows the polished business-hotel style of the Crowne Plaza brand, with a large lobby and meeting spaces designed for events. Room categories include Standard Room, Club Room and Suite, and Club-level stays add a quieter floor and lounge privileges. Rates run from about CNY 450 to 850 a night, approximately $67 to $126, which places it below the city's five-star Hyatt and Hilton properties. Amenities include a restaurant, a bar, an indoor pool, a fitness center, a business center, meeting rooms, a concierge desk and wifi. Dining is organized around an all-day restaurant serving international and Chinese dishes, with a breakfast buffet that suits early departures to the railway station. For Lanzhou beef noodles and night-market food, guests usually travel into the center by taxi. The service character is business-oriented, with a concierge team used to coordinating conference guests, but the pool and spacious rooms also suit families. Visitors wanting a solid international-brand stay near the convention center at a moderate price will find it a practical option in Lanzhou.
