Renaissance Shenzhen Bay is conveniently situated at the core of the action at Shenzhen High Tech Park, a short 35-minute drive to Shenzhen Bao’an International Airport and 15 minutes from the Shenzhen Bay Border Crossing connecting nearby Hong Kong.
The hotel features 293 stylish rooms and suites offering breathtaking views of Shenzhen Bay and the surrounding neighborhood. Designed by the renowned Hong Kong-based architecture firm, CL3, the hotel’s unique design concept is centered on the word “Shenzhen” in Chinese characters, interpreting the city’s name into four deconstructed elements representing: Water, Wood, Earth and Spring.
Distinctive zones with décor representing each element throughout the hotel help evoke this locally-inspired design direction. Upon entering the first-floor arrival area and heading up to the hotel lobby on the 57/F, the Wood and Earth elements come through in the decorative artworks.
