Business trip to Shenzhen Nantou Youxiong Hotel
Shenzhen Nantou Youxiong Hotel
A very design feel boutique hotel, the room style is very personalized, simple but not simple. It is very different from the "standardized" hotels I usually stay in. The room has capsule coffee, TWG tea bags, and the matching of toiletries is also very good. I like the electric kettle the most!
The rooftop can overlook the entire ancient city, and there is a boutique coffee shop in the lobby on the first floor. The cold drip coffee is very good. There are various characteristic small shops and museums in the ancient city. You can stroll around in your spare time to feel the humanistic atmosphere in the fireworks.
The hotel service is very good, communicate the itinerary and guide parking by phone one day in advance. Accompany to the room and explain the room facilities and equipment and hotel design concept carefully.

Art is born for it, and the most representative industrial-style building in the Nantou Ancient City of Shenzhen
Nantou Ancient City hides a secluded art hotel
Passing through the ancient city archway and cultural and creative shops
You can see its distinctive black roof from a distance
The minimalist and cool art style
Forms a stark contrast with the surrounding residential old buildings
It is the Shenzhen Nantou Youxiong Hotel
Design
The hotel is personally crafted by the internationally acclaimed Ruoen design team
Within a year of its opening, it won the 'Best Annual Architectural Design Hotel' award
The simple industrial style, unlike the delicate elegance commonly seen in luxury hotels
Retains the bare concrete structure and traces of past use
Paired with a touch of modernity in raw wood and terrazzo
Blends a subtle balance of aesthetic
And harmonized with the attributes of Shenzhen's urban villages
Creating a suitable local residential and social model
Rooms
The hotel has a small number of rooms, only 11 in total
The exquisite and unique rooms are distributed from the 3rd to the 7th floor
Each room is carefully designed
Even rooms on the same orientation
Have different interior arrangements
Bringing unique surprises to guests
The rooms use the Cantonese 'folding iron curtain' as a partition
Allowing you to constantly feel the Lingnan wind that time brings
Like a global home museum
Dining
The Voisin Organique on the 8th floor of the hotel
Is one of Shenzhen's earliest fine-dining restaurants
For two consecutive years, it has been awarded a one-diamond restaurant by the Black Pearl
Here you can experience exquisite cuisine that pleases the palate
The rooftop bar is an excellent place for relaxation and rest
Where you can enjoy the bustling scenes of Shenzhen
And the worldly fireworks of the urban village
Here you are only responsible for capturing comfort, the rest is taken care of by Youxiong

Shenzhen has also opened a URSIDE Hotel
URSIDE brand has come to Nantou Ancient City. Unlike the Jiangnan style of URSIDE in Suzhou, it is a masterpiece of war-damaged industrial style. In addition to the discerning location selection and excellent steward service, the key point (high cost-effective design): the facade uses wave-shaped perforated aluminum panels, the appearance is rich in layers, and the interior does not block the line of sight and lighting; the concealed system and soft outfit materials are superior, enhancing the comfort of the residents; at the same time, the hotel designed by Ruoen once again successfully sold furniture products;
The hotel is located in the center of Nantou Ancient City, at the intersection of the two main pedestrian streets in the ancient city. It is very convenient to go anywhere when you come out, and it is very close to the subway station;
The hotel has both the temperament of internet celebrity and enough comfort, and the price is also low in the URSIDE series of hotels; it is worth recommending

'You Xiong' is a low-key boutique hotel brand under Vanke, and every 'You Xiong' hotel is carefully located. The Suzhou You Xiong is transformed from the ancestral home of I.M. Pei, while the Shenzhen store is located at the original point of Shenzhen city, 'Nantou Ancient City', opening up a unique Lingnan style living experience full of Shenzhen life culture for guests.
Design
At first sight of the You Xiong Hotel in Nantou Ancient City, it is like a mysterious box, with a new and light architectural facade on the outside, but inside it continues the simple charm of the village houses in the city. The traces of history are incorporated into every corner of the hotel, and stepping into it is like inviting neighbors and friends to visit your home.

There is a Bear Hotel in Nantou, Shenzhen, and here is my review
The Light of Nantou Ancient City | Ru'en's Bear Hotel || ▪️Ru'en's first architectural project in Shenzhen, the Bear Hotel, finally got to experience it during this Dragon Boat Festival holiday.
▪️Among the dazzling array of buildings in the entire Nantou Ancient City, the Bear is a very restrained and humble existence. You can see that the facade of the original building is still preserved, just covered with breathable perforated aluminum panels. This is where you start to feel Ru'en's reflective nostalgia from the outside, not stripping away the old, but also introducing the new, the new and the old coexist.
▪️Passing through the lobby into the elevator hall, what you see is the entire transparent traffic layer: the old structure, the clothes drying next door, the smell of food coming, these are not deliberately covered up, but are nakedly displayed in front of you, once again feeling the meaning of reflective nostalgia. Isn't coming to the urban village just to step into their lives? Feel the narrowness between the buildings at close range, the oppressive space but still has the scene of life, these are the real existence of urban village life. And those colorful new shops in the urban village outside are more of a portrayal of gentrification brought by capital, always lacking a bit of local flavor. It is rare that the Bear and Ru'en can stick to such a more humble design and bring a more real experience to everyone.
▪️Entering the room is more about simple comfort, without too much unnecessary decoration. What makes me happiest is that there are many books, which is really worth praising. The original design books that I can't buy usually, I can read enough here.
▪️To be honest, many designs in Nantou Ancient City are too forceful, a bit like P-ing oneself into a web celebrity face in order to cater to aesthetics. The restrained aesthetics of the Bear is a more respectful design for the transformation of the urban village. I am very happy that Shenzhen can finally have a non-impetuous design, which is a good choice for friends who want to choose a designer hotel in Shenzhen.
