About Four Seasons Hotel Guangzhou
- The Guangzhou IFC's diagrid exoskeleton is the world's tallest of its structural type, and the 33-storey hotel atrium spanning floors 69 to 103 inside the spindle-shaped tower is large enough to enclose London's St Paul's Cathedral within its glass-clad void.
- Yu Yue Heen has held one Michelin star for eight consecutive years through 2025, making it one of the longest continuously starred hotel restaurants in South China.
- The infinity pool on the 69th floor delivers horizon-edge views over the Pearl River Delta from roughly 320 metres above street level, placing it among the highest pools of its type in the world.
- The Guangzhou IFC is as of 2023 the world's tallest building with a rooftop helipad, at 438 metres, reflecting both WilkinsonEyre's engineering ambition and the practical demands of Guangdong's business elite.
- Opened in July 2012 as the 88th Four Seasons property worldwide, the hotel occupies floors 69 through 98 of the 103-storey tower in Zhujiang New Town.
History
Opened in July 2012 as the 88th Four Seasons property, occupying the top third of the 103-story Guangzhou IFC skyscraper in the heart of the emerging Pearl River New City business district. The hotel features a 34-floor central atrium and extensive contemporary Chinese art collection, blending modern luxury with local cultural elements. Currently undergoing phased renovations, with 119 reimagined guest rooms completed in 2025 incorporating Lingnan heritage motifs, and further updates to suites, restaurants, and public areas planned for 2026.
The setting
Four Seasons Hotel Guangzhou soars above Zhujiang New Town from the 74th to 98th floors of the 103-story Guangzhou IFC on Zhujiang West Road, where 360-degree views sweep across the Pearl River, the Canton Tower, and the Baiyun mountains. The CTF Finance Centre is six minutes on foot, Zaha Hadid's Guangzhou Opera House and the Guangdong Museum both eight, and the riverfront plazas of Huacheng Square sixteen. This vertical perch on the district's main north-south axis—where government-planned civic grandeur meets the highest concentration of luxury hospitality in South China—makes the IFC tower's address one of the most architecturally and commercially deliberate luxury locations in the country.
