Vangen

Ohne Yezis freundliche Unterstützung wäre mein Aufenthalt nicht möglich. Ich liebe das Zimmer, den Innenhof, Katzen und Kätzchen, ein mit Getreide gebrautes Getränk und die Chinesische Mauer von meinem Zimmer aus. Der Fuß der Chinesischen Mauer liegt nur wenige hundert Meter vom Hotel entfernt und die Wanderung ist kurz und interessant.

Very quiet, modern courtyard home stay. Staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. The food they are preparing is great and has very good food quality. Just one little downside, but just from my personal view, the air condition could be cooler. In the lowest settings the AC didn’t manage to cool down the room so much. Otherwise great home stay. We loved it here.

The hotel’s service is very good because even when the kitchen was already closed, they tried to prepare a light meal for us. They also had a very nice lounging area in the center which is be great for photos. The hotel staff is very nice too and they can help recommend which places to go and they would help all they can with any issues about our transportation,trip planning, and booking tickets. This hotel can not speak english though. And it would be recommended to drive there because it would be more convenient to go to WaterTown or other places. The hotel can call a taxi for you though but it would be twice as expensive as a normal taxi would cost. Also, the location is about 5-8 minutes away from WaterTown. Not recommended if you don’t have a car.

The location is very rural and the facilities of the lodge are in need of remodeling. But the service team is friendly, attentive and helpful.

Amazing food and drinks and service. I’ve never experienced such luxury and calmness at a hotel. Lovely interior & views from the balcony above as well ❤️

Our stay was wonderful. We went during the week and the overall experience was perfect. The location is quiet and tucked under a small hill with direct view to the great wall which is amazing. The room is super spacious and minimally decorated while totally functional, plus it features a scented steamer to give it a spa feel. The hot spring in the room is golden (best after a day of hiking and walking). The hotel décor isn’t brand new, so there may be some small marks on the wall, for example, behind the mirror or by one door (speaking more about hosts who don’t take care of the facilitates than the hotel management itself). That said, everything is quite clean, and tidy, comfortable and warm. There may be one or two chilled bugs (tree bug or a small bee) visiting your room…it is the mountains after all. But they are harmless and if you cannot or prefer not to deal with them, the reception is happy to help you. The service is excellent, plus they were so kind to gift us a warm white mushroom soup (sweet warm delicious drink/dessert-y local delicacy) to warm us up the first night. And the next day when I asked what it was, they were kind enough to offer another cup 😊 Their coffees are excellent! They have a small bar offering simple cocktails and a fridge selling other soft or alcoholic drinks like soda, juice, beer and wine (simple). The hotel set meals are honest and simple, not home-style or farm to table but rather “continental”. However, they are super flexible and accommodating with options and somewhat late orders which is very appreciated on trips when you are not 100% sure you will make it in time for dinner, etc. They did have a local driver and offered a one-free trip from or back to the train station or another place around the area. He’s quite nice. However, if you are on a tight budget, better check with other drivers for your paid trips and compare with the hotel one to make sure you get the best value for $. Recommend 100% yes! Foreign and Chinese customers we all seemed quite happy. Do they speak English? I am not sure sorry. But Trip.com staff are very helpful in cross-communication and the ladies are young so they might!
