Chongqing Raffles City
Futuristic architectural statement. Interiors are sleek and cool — white, ivory, beige palettes, floor-to-ceiling glass everywhere. Yacht-cabin chic meets Chinese megacity spectacle.
Book a river-view room — even numbered floors on the tower face the Yangtze/Jialing confluence. The view at night is the payoff.
Why It Matters
Designed by Moshe Safdie. Occupies floors 44–65 of an iconic eight-skyscraper complex at the confluence of the Yangtze and Jialing rivers. The Crystal skybridge — at 300 metres long and 250 metres high — is the world's highest sky lobby. Earned a Michelin Key in 2025 and named to Travel+Leisure China's Top 100 Hotels 2024.
This place earns its hype. Designed by Moshe Safdie — the same architect behind Marina Bay Sands — the Raffles City Chongqing complex stacks eight skyscrapers at the exact spot where the Yangtze and Jialing rivers converge. The InterContinental occupies floors 44 to 65 of one of those towers, plus a slice of The Crystal: a 300-metre glass-walled skybridge connecting four of the towers at the 42nd floor, 250 metres above street level. You check in on the world's highest sky lobby. Your room is on the 50-something-th floor. The views are, frankly, disorienting in the best way.
