Anantara Guiyang Resort & Spa
A resort spa and hot tub outside the city centre
About this hotel
Anantara Guiyang Resort & Spa sets itself apart from Guiyang's other jacuzzi hotels by building the entire stay around wellness rather than pairing a hot tub with a business-district location. Multiple pools and a full spa sit alongside the hot tub, and the roughly 27-minute taxi ride from Longdongbao International Airport signals a property meant for a longer, more deliberate stay rather than a stopover between flights. The airport shuttle covers that transfer for guests without their own transport, and free parking suits anyone arriving by car from elsewhere in Guizhou. Breakfast and Wi-Fi come included, and the fitness centre, bar and restaurant round out a property built to keep guests on-site rather than pulling them into the Zhucheng Square commercial core for entertainment. Guest ratings here run highest among Guiyang's jacuzzi hotels.

Our take
Anantara Guiyang Resort & Spa suits travellers planning a genuine wellness break rather than a business trip or a one-night stopover, given the distance from the airport and the resort's focus on the spa and pools over a central location. Couples and anyone prioritising the hot tub as the main draw will get the most from a stay here. Business travellers needing quick access to Zhucheng Square or a business centre should book elsewhere in Guiyang.
- ✓Budget extra time for the airport transfer, at roughly 27 minutes it's the longest of Guiyang's jacuzzi hotels.
- ✓Use the airport shuttle rather than arranging your own taxi, it's built into the resort's transfer routine.
- ✓Book the spa early in your stay rather than the last night, treatments fill up faster than the pools do.
Why we love it

Why guests love itGuests at Anantara Guiyang Resort & Spa tend to settle into a routine fast: mornings by one of the pools, afternoons booked into the spa, and the hot tub reserved for the evening once the fitness centre and pools quiet down. The 27-minute distance from the airport keeps day-trippers away, which leaves the resort feeling calmer than Guiyang's business-district hotels. Families using the airport shuttle skip the taxi altogether, and the on-site restaurant covers most dinners without anyone needing to leave the property.
