🟠Name: Jin Tang Hotel 📍Address: Inside the West Scenic Zone of Wuzhen, located in the middle of the main street of Wuzhen. It is very convenient to go out for a stroll, and you can go back to rest for a while when you are tired, and then come out to continue strolling. The day before check-in, the hotel called to confirm the check-in information, and butler Xiao Yu provided meticulous one-on-one service, making parking route plans and entering the parking lot access card number in advance. On the day of check-in, in the 40°C high temperature, we successfully parked the car in the indoor parking lot of the scenic area. Xiao Yu was already waiting for us in the garage, and helped us carry our luggage and walked about 5 minutes to the visitor center in the high temperature, and handled the scenic area ticket procedures. We didn't have to worry about anything during the whole process, just waited to enter the park. After entering the scenic area, Xiao Yu arranged a sculling boat for us, without queuing and free of charge, and took the lead in starting the water town experience. When the boat docked at the hotel entrance, Xiao Yu was already waiting at the dock. After entering the hotel, other staff poured tea and handed over iced towels. The hotel's service was meticulous and thoughtful, providing a cool experience in the sweltering heat. The entire hotel was converted from the private residence of a former ship merchant. Because it is located in the core area of the scenic spot, it is very convenient for sightseeing. The interior decoration of the hotel is elegant and unique, with winding paths and a sense of fun. Xiao Yu also upgraded our room. The room is next to the river bank, and the balcony is suspended above the river. When you open the window, you can see the small bridge, flowing water, and lotus leaves. From time to time, you can see scullers boating on the water and fish playing in the water below, fully experiencing the unique fun of a water town family. The interior decoration, facilities, and hygiene of the room are all first-class and impeccable. In addition to the fresh fruit that had already been placed, Xiao Yu also specially brought a refreshing iced white fungus and lotus seed soup to relieve the sweltering heat. Xiao Yu also showed us the menu for the hotel breakfast the night before, and we selected it in advance. The kitchen made it in real time according to the agreed time on the day to ensure that the dishes were in the freshest state when they were served. The dishes are divided into Chinese and Western set meals, with excellent appearance and taste, which are amazing. The hotel fee package also includes two tickets to Wucun, but we were unable to experience it due to the sweltering heat. The hotel's free "Jin Tang Old Hall" allows you to feel the original owner's philosophy of managing the family, and the ancients' philosophy and aesthetics of architecture. After checking out, the luggage can also be consigned and will be sent directly by the hotel to the visitor center of the scenic spot for storage. We only need to carry necessary small items with us to continue touring the scenic spot. At the same time, when we are ready to leave the scenic spot after the tour, we only need to find the nearest scenic tour bus service station, and we can take the tour bus to the visitor center for free with the hotel luggage consignment note. We felt a very intimate service experience throughout the whole process, not only material enjoyment, but also humanistic care. In four words: it's worth it! Thank you Xiao Yu for guiding us into the scenic area in the sweltering heat and providing a high standard of exquisite service!

Wuzhen Xizha Jintang Inn, a big surprise, the most recommended way to travel to Wuzhen Xizha is to choose a good hotel for an immersive experience of this oriental 'Disney'. We bought a hotel and ten tickets package, two people, 600 per person. It seems that the official hotels or homestays all include tickets. Jintang is classified as 'luxury' in many public articles, it seems to be not as good as the top ones, but I am very satisfied after staying. The service is very good, contact by phone at the entrance of the scenic area, they will come to the visitor center to help buy tickets, and then take the electric car in together, no need to worry about carrying large luggage! After all, the feeling of dragging a suitcase on the stone road. The location is quite close to the visitor center, and the nearest one should be the very photogenic dyeing workshop. If you get up early, you can experience the morning market, which is also very close. The breakfast is okay, divided into Chinese and Western styles, but I personally prefer the buffet style.
