Inside China's Hotel That Looks Like 9 Trees: What's It Like Now?
CN Walking2025-12-2718 min

The traveler visits Beauty Crown Grand Tree Hotel in Sanya, a vast complex built around nine tree-shaped skyscrapers standing about 100 meters tall. The architecture resembles giant Lego blocks arranged as an Urban Forest, with balconies jutting out like branches. It’s noted as one of the world’s quirkiest hotel designs and holds a Guinness World Record for the most rooms, including a seven‑star and a platinum five‑star component plus serviced apartments. The surreal exterior makes it perfect for photography and film-like scenes. However, the location and sparse tourism keep rents unusually cheap, and maintenance has declined, resulting in many areas being abandoned or deserted. The video guides viewers through the grand entrance, an abandoned commercial street, an artistic corridor in a tunnel, interior shots inside the Tree Hotel, balcony views, a playground, an empty commercial street, and the grounds beneath the nine towering trees. The exploration offers a rare glimpse into what this massive structure feels like when it’s not bustling with guests.

Inside China's Hotel That Looks Like 9 Trees: What's It Like Now?

Traveling to Sanya reveals a landmark that feels carved from a sci-fi fantasy: the Beauty Crown Grand Tree Hotel, a massive complex built around nine tree-shaped skyscrapers. Each tower soars about 100 meters, forming an urban forest where balconies branch out like limbs and fruit. The project is famous for its bold, Lego-like architecture and has earned a Guinness World Record for housing an enormous number of rooms, over 6,668 keys, with a mix of a seven-star hotel, a platinum five-star hotel, and serviced apartments. The design invites dramatic photography and a sense of otherworldliness, as if stepping onto a movie set. Yet the scene isn’t pristine. The site’s awkward location and dwindling visitors have driven rents down to incredibly low levels, and maintenance has faltered in many areas, leaving portions deserted or abandoned. The video takes viewers through the grand entrance, the abandoned commercial street, an artistic tunnel, the interior of the tree hotel, balcony vistas, a
