Kempinski Hotel Huizhou
The only Huizhou hotel with indoor and outdoor pools
About this hotel
Running both an indoor and an outdoor pool sets this high-rise property apart from every other hotel on this list, giving guests weather-independent swimming alongside genuine outdoor pool time rather than having to choose one. The spa and two restaurants round out a stay built for a genuine resort experience despite the downtown high-rise setting, and event space adds a business dimension the purely leisure-focused resorts further out do not offer. Free breakfast and an airport shuttle simplify logistics, though the roughly hour-and-forty-five-minute ride to the airport is among the longer transfers on this list. The dual-pool setup means a rainy or overly humid afternoon never has to cut a stay's water time short, since the indoor option is always available as a fallback.

Our take
This suits travelers who want the flexibility of both an indoor and an outdoor pool in a single stay, plus a genuine high-rise resort atmosphere with event space for business needs. The dual-pool setup is the clear differentiator. Anyone prioritizing a short airport transfer above all else should compare against InterContinental Huizhou Resort instead, given the notably shorter ride there.
- ✓Use the indoor pool during the humid part of the day and the outdoor pool once it cools in the evening.
- ✓Take advantage of the airport shuttle rather than arranging a separate taxi for the longer transfer.
- ✓Book event space well ahead if the stay includes any business function, given the high-rise format.
Why we love it
- Both indoor and outdoor pools on-site
- Two restaurants and event space
- Airport shuttle included
- High-rise resort atmosphere
Why guests love itHaving both pools available is what made this stay genuinely flexible: the indoor pool for the humid middle of the day, the outdoor one once the evening cooled things down, and I never felt boxed into one option. The two restaurants covered variety without needing to leave the building, and the airport shuttle took the stress out of what turned out to be a fairly long transfer. It reads as a proper high-rise resort rather than a business hotel that happens to have a pool.
