Crowne Plaza Chengdu West & Holiday Inn Chengdu High-Tech Center are two InterContinental dual-brand properties located at the same address in Chengdu’s High-Tech West Zone. The two hotels share full access to meeting & banquet venues, the indoor heated swimming pool, fitness center and parking, and guest rooms can be flexibly arranged to match different budgets — convenient for conference participants choosing between two accommodation options within one complex.

Nestled in the heart of the Hi-Tech West Zone and surrounded by tech and manufacturing enterprises, the hotel is about a 30-minute drive from Shuangliu International Airport. Metro Line 2 (Baicaolu Station, 5 minutes on foot) offers direct access to Tianfu Square and Chunxi Road in the city centre, and runs directly to the hotel from Chengdu East Railway Station. Over 600 free parking spaces are available on site. The hotel is also close to the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China and the West Zone Industrial Park.

Crowne Plaza Chengdu West features 347 guest rooms starting from 40 sqm, with elegant neo-Chinese decor. Most rooms come with panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows, and bathrooms provide a separated wet-dry layout with both bathtub and standalone shower. Bathrobes and ergonomic office chairs are provided for a comfortable stay and working experience.

Holiday Inn Chengdu High-Tech Center has 316 guest rooms in modern minimalist style. At 45 sqm, rooms offer generous space with lounge sofas and workstations, featuring premium bedding, private bathrooms and full-coverage high-speed internet.

An indoor heated swimming pool and fitness center are available to guests of both hotels, and the hotel’s 6,500 sqm of meeting space includes two column-free ballrooms and nine function rooms.

Transportation options

There are two main bus stops in the center. The first bus stop is right next to Astoria Capsis Hotel. There are also other suggested hotels that are quite close to the bus stops. The route takes about 40 minutes by bus (heading ITE or PAGNI) and the ticket costs 1,50 € (blue ticket). Ticket vending machines are located next to most bus stations in the centre but you can also buy from most kiosks around the city.
