Located in the heart of Lanzhou’s Anning District, the new hotel draws on the brand’s roots as a gathering place for both locals and guests in communities around the world, which continues to evolve through Sheraton’s new design vision of creating intuitive and holistic experiences through spaces to connect, be productive, and enjoy a sense of belonging.

A Modern-Day Community Hub

At the heart of the new Sheraton Lanzhou Anning is the lobby, which was designed as a holistic and open space that invites people to connect or be alone amongst others, creating a sense of energy and belonging. A destination steeped in heritage and history, the property called upon The Yellow River culture, Silk Road culture, and ecological culture as sources of inspiration for its interior design. For example, the lobby’s background wall draws inspiration from the undulating hills of the Silk Road, using modern abstract techniques and metallic materials to depict the charm of the Lanzhou Silk Road Desert.

As iconic public spaces of the Sheraton brand’s transformed design, the Community Table, The Booths, and The Studios are focal points in the lobby. The brand’s signature Community Table is an inviting, purpose-built workspace that anchors the hotel’s lobby and allow corporate travellers to work, eat and drink while soaking up the energy of the space. Guests can also retreat in Sheraton’s signature The Booths, a quiet space that offers privacy without breaking the flow. The Studios, located in the lobby of the hotel, provide flexible event spaces to meet guests’ needs and a relaxed atmosphere that can foster communication and collaboration with team members.

Guest Rooms & Club Lounges that Champion Productivity

The Sheraton Lanzhou Anning features 354 modern and stylish guest rooms and suites, ranging from 42-sqm to 190-sqm. Floor-to-ceiling windows welcome natural light into each room, while soft finishes and light wood tones complement each other to create a warm and elegant feeling of home. Additionally, all guest rooms are equipped with convenient office desks and chairs, integrated chargers, and multi-level intelligent lighting systems. The bathrooms are designed with modern walk-in showers and bath amenities by Gilchrist & Soames.

Sheraton Club, an exclusive space for Marriott Bonvoy Elite members and guests staying at Executive Floor, offers an elevated experience in which guests are uplifted through meaningful productivity and a connection to the environment. Guests will find curated food and beverage offerings, premium amenities, enhanced connectivity, and a private atmosphere for working and relaxing.
