Default Re: The elegant and pastoral surroundings for holiday speding?

" The surroundings of Shanghai Autoin Center offers an ideal residence"

The 'surroundings' which I understand are made up of gardens and greenery. How could they offer residence??
They do provide the ideal setting for a residence, a hotel or a retreat.

Enveloped in elegant, peaceful and pastoral surroundings flavored with an European and American country impression, the ShanghaiAutoinCenter offers an ideal residence for holiday-spending or business trips.
1. 'enveloped in' connotes a sense of being very enclosed. I prefer to use 'surrounded by'
2. 'flavoured in ......impression' - reminiscent of an European or American countryside? or 'exudes the charm of .......?
3. holiday-spending' - leisure?
