About Read Land Меҳмонхона

Read Land меҳмонхонаест, ки дар боғи варзишӣ ҷойгир шуда, бо кӯҳҳо, об ва сабзазор иҳота шудааст. Меҳмонхона ҷои истиқомат ва инчунин фазоҳои махсус барои мулоҳизаи Зен пешниҳод мекунад. Ду бино тавассути долон ба ҳам пайваст шудаанд ва дорои 46 ҳуҷраи меҳмонӣ, тарабхона, лобби ва ду толори конфронс мебошанд. Минтақаҳои мулоҳиза, ки аз ҷиҳати эргономикӣ тарҳрезӣ шудаанд, дар ҳуҷраҳои меҳмонӣ ва фазоҳои умумӣ ҷойгир карда шудаанд. Бамбук, чӯб, алаф, катон ва санг ба фазои дохилӣ хусусияти содда ва ором мебахшанд. Иншооти калони обӣ ва пардаҳои бамбукӣ дар фазои маҳдуд ҳисси кушодагиро ба вуҷуд меоранд.

Unique Properties: Nestled in a sports park, this hotel is surrounded by picturesque landscapes of mountains, waters, and verdant greenery. It not only serves the accommodation function but also creates differentiated Zen practice scenarios, providing customers with Zen meditation activities and check-in experiences.
It emphasizes both "accommodation comfort" and "Zen practice ritual sense". Ergonomically designed meditation spaces are featured in both guest rooms and public areas.
Dimensions & Packaging: The hotel has two buildings connected by a corridor with a total area of 2870 square meters. It has 46 guest rooms, 22 double rooms of about 28 to 33 square meters each and 24 single rooms of around 25 to 28 square meters each. There is an 83 square meter restaurant with 42 seats, a 76 square meter lobby and two conference rooms covering 190 square meters in total. The bigger one can hold 88 people.

Production Technology: To express the Zen mood and realize the function of Zen practice in the hotel space, we convey the artistic conception of the space through emptiness, seclusion, simplicity, tranquility and elegance; in terms of materials, we use simple and natural materials such as bamboo, wood, grass, linen and stone to decorate the space and shape its temperament.
Design Challenge: Our greatest challenge was how to create the artistic effects of spaciousness and serenity within the space. With limited usable area, achieving a sense of spaciousness requires leaving blank areas to inspire imagination. We introduced a large water feature to evoke a feeling of openness. Furthermore, we applied elements such as bamboo curtains and grilles to create a view that is visible yet not fully exposed, leaving room for imagination and reflecting the artistic connotation of the space.
Research: The rapid economic development and fast paced life have brought people mounting pressure and anxiety. Some insightful people therefore long for a return to authenticity. This is the essence of Zen culture and the original intention behind our hotel. The Zen philosophy is evolving from a niche cultural phenomenon into a core force driving business innovation, social harmony and the evolution of design aesthetics.
Inspiration: Urban residents urgently need "slow living" and "spiritual healing", driving demand for Zen-based spiritual liberation. This project draws inspiration from Eastern Zen culture (Buddhist Zen practices like sitting meditation, mindfulness) and spatial aesthetics (Japanese dry landscape gardens, Chinese Zen gardens).

Differentiating from traditional hotels that only focus on accommodation, this Zen retreat hotel will create professional scenarios for spiritual practice and meditation healing.
Project Duration: The design of this project was launched in Xuzhou, China in February 2024, completed in July 2024 with the construction started immediately, the construction was finished in May 2025, and the hotel opened for business in Xuzhou in May 2025.
Operation Flow: Unlike traditional hotels, this one features dedicated meditation facilities that immerse guests in a tranquil, Zenlike atmosphere. Serving as both a meditation experience space and a popular photo spot, this unique offering sets the hotel apart and gives it a distinct competitive edge over others.
