Boutique Hotels in Zhejiang, China

Our stay was fantastic! Special thanks to Ms. Zhan at the front desk for her thoughtful service and help during check-in. She upgraded our room when possible and gave us recommendations for evening activities. What really stood out was when she offered us two warm, yes, warm walnut cookies – they were so comforting and delicious, like coming home, especially since we were a bit hungry! We extended our stay for another night, and Ms. Jia at the front desk was equally warm and attentive. The entire hotel, from its facilities to its soft services, feels grand and well-designed. The bedding is incredibly comfortable, and the breakfast and dinner buffets offer a wide variety of choices. I also appreciate their strong commitment to environmental protection, with trash cans that have ditched plastic bags – excellent!

I was very satisfied with my stay. **Facilities:** Very complete and excellent. **Hygiene:** Very clean, comfortable, and fresh. **Environment:** Great, perfect for taking photos and checking in. **Service:** The front desk staff were very enthusiastic, and the room attendants were also very welcoming. **Double Supper:** Very delicious. **Baked Sweet Potato:** Also very tasty.

The hotel facilities were better than I expected, not as old as I thought, and very clean. I requested a high floor but was given the 22nd. Combs are eco-friendly and need to be requested. The room smelled heavily of smoke. They said they'd bring an air purifier, but when the staff delivered it, they were quite annoyed, scolding me for not telling her everything I needed at once, claiming she was very busy today. I was quite shocked by that. Did you tell me in advance that there would be no comb? I checked in with children, did you proactively offer kids' toiletries? How was I supposed to know you'd give me a smoky room? The smell was still very strong when I returned at night, making me dizzy. After reporting it to Trip.com customer service, I was moved to another room. After I complained about the service, they offered a complimentary children's breakfast. However, the one time we went to the first-floor restaurant for breakfast, we were stopped and asked to pay for the children's meal. The first-floor breakfast was mediocre anyway; no tea bags, and the tea itself was so diluted it had no color. I must praise the staff at the 24th-floor lounge, though. They were very proactive in asking what we'd like to drink, and a special thanks to a gentleman with glasses who, even during a busy morning, went down to the first floor to get us beef noodles. The sunset views from there are truly stunning.

Location: Situated north of Nanhu Lake in Jiaxing, the hotel boasts its own 'Eight Scenic Views' and beautiful garden design. From the back exit, you can directly access Haogu Pagoda. A pleasant stroll along the lake will take you past attractions like Lanxiu Garden, Chenggong Embankment, and Shaoyuan, eventually leading to Huijingyuan. From there, you can take a boat (the only place offering a 20-yuan ferry) to Huxin Island, and finally, head to Nanhu Tiandi for a meal. Service: The hotel maintains strict quality control. They thoroughly checked the cleanliness, which meant our room was ready a bit late, but they compensated us with an upgrade. Honestly, there isn't much difference between the garden view and lake view rooms. In fact, the garden view room was closer to the elevator, which was even more convenient for our family with a baby. Facilities: The swimming pool is a bit on the small side, so we didn't end up using it. While there's a workshop-like activity for kids, the lack of a dedicated children's play area is a shame. However, the hotel grounds are quite spacious, and our baby was very happy running around. Cleanliness: This was truly excellent, 10086 out of 10! The breakfast selection was also extensive. We didn't try the other restaurants, so I can't comment on those.

I came to Shaoxing during the full bloom of the Chinaberry trees this time, and when it came to where to stay, there was no doubt – Shaoxing Hotel. I'd walked past it from Xixiaolu to Xiaohe Zhijie at the end of last year, and this Jiangnan-style garden hotel immediately went onto my 'must-stay' list. Shaoxing Hotel is beautiful both inside and out, with stunning scenery everywhere. All the staff are incredibly friendly and greet you warmly. On the day I checked in, the front desk even upgraded me to the second floor of Building 2, facing Fushan Park. The sanitary facilities are, needless to say, exceptionally clean, featuring a smart toilet and a multi-function shower with several massage jets. The sink area also has separate strong and weak voltage outlets for hair dryers and men's razors. The breakfast restaurant is downstairs. I passed it multiple times during the day and evening. It offers Shaoxing specialties, and the food is quite good. After breakfast, you can head to Fushan Park across the street for a panoramic view of the city. Shaoxing Hotel isn't just about its beautiful environment and excellent service; it also boasts a fantastic, central location in Shaoxing. You can walk to Xiaohe Zhijie, Cangqiao, and Lu Xun's former residence. I've compared this over my two visits to Shaoxing in the past six months and have already recommended it to several good friends.

I booked this hotel specifically for the West Lake view. I had communicated my request to the front desk beforehand, and they accommodated it, so I could indeed see West Lake from the bathroom's floor-to-ceiling window. **Value for Money**: At this price, it's absolutely worth it for a weekend stay. **Breakfast**: The 48 RMB/person buffet breakfast, although featuring ordinary dishes, offered a good variety of both Chinese and Western options, ensuring a satisfying start to the day. **Wi-Fi**: You can connect using your room number; no password needed, and the speed is good. **Bed**: The king-size bed was just right in terms of firmness, if you know what I mean. **Cleanliness**: The truth is in the details; every nook and cranny was very clean. (I checked thoroughly). **Room View**: Because the hotel's upper floors have a circular cross-section, only some rooms offer a West Lake view. **Location & Transport**: From Hangzhou Station, take Metro Line 1 for one stop to Ding'an Road Station, then walk a bit, and you'll arrive in about 16 minutes. Walking to West Lake takes less than ten minutes. **Overall**: The decor, dating back about ten years, feels a bit old-fashioned, but it's well-maintained rather than worn out. The cleanliness details reflect the hotel's excellent management. **Highlights**: Details like the direct drinking water, smart toilet, plastic slippers, and two umbrellas in the room show the hotel's continuous efforts to keep up with the times and improve service. **Suggestion**: Adding a shoehorn would be a good idea.

Came with my kids, and it's great for ordering takeout; the robot delivery is super convenient, and sometimes a staff member brings it, and their attitude is good. The environment is also pretty nice. The only downside is the breakfast buffet, which is really bad and has very few options. Luckily, it wasn't crowded, even on a Sunday, with plenty of empty seats when I went at 9 AM. I suggest adding some chicken nuggets, which kids love, or prawn crackers. Everything else was fine, but the floor is really slippery, so be careful. Shery provided excellent service, and I'd come back again. Yesterday, I saw penguins at Nanhu Tiandi and absolutely loved the 'Sui Yin Ji Liang' there. Anyway, it's better than the Four Points by Sheraton, where you have to go downstairs yourself to pick up takeout, and the air isn't as good, though it is a bit more value for money.

Among several riverside hotels, we ultimately chose the brand new Junlan Tonglu Hotel. We booked two deluxe king rooms and, after an early request, were kindly upgraded to the Xiaowu River View rooms. The night view was lovely, and the small park downstairs was perfect for a stroll. Fresh fruit and snacks were provided daily. The smart home system was simple yet sophisticated, making the room tidy, quiet, and incredibly comfortable. The service quality was particularly outstanding. From the moment we checked in, we felt a perfectly balanced level of hospitality. Cici, a staff member, was attentive without being intrusive, showing great care for both the elderly and children. Learning that we were there for fishing, she enthusiastically recommended local fishing spots, demonstrating a deep knowledge of the area. The dining experience was equally impressive: the buffet breakfast offered a rich variety of well-prepared dishes. Since our child didn't come down for breakfast, they thoughtfully packed fresh shrimp porridge and pancakes for us. The Chinese restaurant, though only opened during the May Day holiday, already boasted both stylish service and high-quality cuisine. Dishes like the river white fish, red soup noodles, Malantou with dried tofu, drunken shrimp, and steak were all cooked to perfection with rich, refined flavors, showcasing the authentic taste of Tonglu combined with exquisite culinary artistry. In just two short days, this has become a hotel I genuinely want to recommend and one I'm eager to revisit. See you next time!

Once you enter Wuzhen, no other Jiangnan town will compare. It's not just a classical ink painting with its small bridges, flowing water, white walls, and black tiles; it also boasts profound historical and cultural heritage, vibrant modern artistic energy, and a new lease on life thanks to smart technology. What ancient town can truly rival Wuzhen? Choosing a guesthouse within the scenic area brought many pleasant surprises: ① Free Wi-Fi covers the entire scenic area, with stable signal everywhere. ② Luggage can be directly handed to the host for transport, making the whole trip light and hassle-free. ③ Enjoy exclusive breakfast benefits for early risers, offering an authentic local experience. ④ The accommodation fee includes a 150 RMB ticket to the West Scenic Zone and shuttle bus service. During your stay, you can re-enter and exit the scenic area multiple times using facial recognition, making travel convenient and worry-free. The graceful waterscape combined with attentive service makes for a truly happy and comfortable experience. Wuzhen is absolutely amazing! Wuzhen guesthouses are absolutely amazing! Perspective determines outlook, outlook guides choices, choices dictate actions, and actions ultimately shape one's future. May Wuzhen's gentle water town charm remain, may time be peaceful, and its ancient allure endure!

The hotel's location is excellent, with a Line 1 metro station just a 2-minute walk downstairs, perfect for early morning flights. The breakfast offers a wide variety, including a noodle bar and coffee, which is far beyond the standard for mid-to-high-end chain hotels at this price point. I'll definitely stay here again next time I need to catch a flight from Xiaoshan Airport.
