2213327****I stayed at the Tonglu Kaiyuan Senbo Resort Hotel for two nights a few days before the National Day holiday. According to the hotel, it officially opened in July this year, and some activities within the park will officially begin in October. The indoor swimming pool will open in November. The second phase of various large-scale amusement parks will be operational next summer. The hotel currently has one Chinese restaurant open, which only opened at the end of September. A typical meal costs around 100+ RMB per person for reference. The dishes are all made to order, so the service is relatively slow, but acceptable. There is a convenience store and a cave-style café in the hotel, both newly opened.
We took a taxi to the hotel, which was convenient; you could generally get a taxi even at night (I didn't try it at night). There's a shuttle bus waiting at the hotel parking lot to take you inside. The entire hotel is located halfway up a mountain, and there are shuttle buses available for getting around, although you might need to book in advance during peak periods. There aren't many restaurants around the hotel; most are farmhouses.
Most of the hotel staff are college students or young people. They are warm and friendly, proactively greeting guests and asking if they need help. Special praise to our housekeepers Jiali and Shuxin, waitress Li Xiang, and concierge Zhou Tongyang for their attentive service during our stay.
We booked a family room for three adults, which was a bit cramped. Jiali noticed that we had an elderly person and a pregnant woman in our group and kindly upgraded us to a courtyard room free of charge, if room availability allowed. The only downside was that the hotel currently doesn't offer extra beds; apart from the 36-square-meter triple room, no other room type can accommodate three adults. Apparently, this is because the hotel recently opened, and hopefully, this will be added later.
The courtyard room photos show a portion of it; it's a duplex. The first floor has a large bed, a round bathtub, a shower, and a toilet. The second floor has a living room and a toilet. It should be able to comfortably accommodate a family of five…
The bedding was comfortable, and the mattress was a firm spring mattress, more suitable for Chinese babies than those in chains like IHG and Marriott. Pillows were available in latex and foam options. My family member said they slept more comfortably than at home 😓.
Breakfast was a buffet, similar to the chains mentioned above. The advantage is that it provides baby food and utensils, as well as 45-degree warm water.
