An Inspiring Arrival
Starting at the hotel’s lobby, Hyatt Regency Fuzhou Cangshan impresses
with an energizing combination of natural light from the atrium and
intricate, linear jasmine-themed designs throughout the interior of the
hotel. This timeless jasmine flower motif echoes through the grounds,
from the ever-present fragrance in the air to the wood-carved petal
designs on the door of each room. Iconic local elements are cleverly
incorporated throughout the hotel, such as the circular Tulou, an
enclosed and fortified earth building.
Guestrooms
Hyatt Regency Fuzhou Cangshan features 226 intuitively designed rooms
and suites, ranging in size from 473 square feet (44 square meters) to
2,626 square feet (244 square meters). The guestrooms have been built to
integrate experiences that cater to the personal needs of the travelers
with private foyers, large walk-in closets, bluetooth-controlled
speakers, 48-inch LED televisions, and bathrooms with separate toilet
and shower/bathrooms. Most guestrooms offer unobstructed views of the
adjacent Wulong River and the Qi Mountains in the distance through
floor-to-ceiling glass windows.

Hyatt Regency Fuzhou Cangshan features four restaurants offering
authentic local and global flavor. From authentic Fujian cuisine to fine
European fare, the hotel provides multiple options for quick drinks,
business lunches, intimate dinners or casual dining experiences.

nearby Wuyi Mountain. It also offers traditional Chinese “kung fu” tea
ceremonies for guests, live musical performances and a range of a la

counter, while à la carte options are instantly prepared to guests’

oven and an open kitchen bring an authentic, visual feast straight to

authentic local Fuzhou and Cantonese fare in one of the city’s most
exclusive settings. Set around a green, open-air courtyard, the

meatballs.
