The Sheraton Huzhou Hot Spring Resort (Chinese: 浙江湖州喜来登温泉度假酒店), also known as the "Horseshoe Hotel" or "Doughnut Hotel" due to its unique torus shape, is a luxurious hotel and resort situated in Huzhou, China. This 27-story structure is positioned on Lake Tai, between Nanjing and Shanghai. The resort, rated 4½ stars, boasts 321 rooms, 37 villas, 40 suites, a presidential suite, parking facilities, a fitness and wellness center, four restaurants, a café, a children's pool, and rooms with terraces. The visionary architect Yansong Ma conceived the design, which was brought to life by the Shanghai Feizhou Group.
