Boutique Hotels in Zhejiang, China

The room has a charming, antique feel with a distinctive incense aroma, creating a rich cultural atmosphere. There's even a calligraphy experience available in the room. The mattress is very comfortable, and everything is clean and hygienic, especially the bathroom. Breakfast was incredibly varied, and the pastries were particularly delicious. I also want to thank the hotel staff for providing me with an extra complimentary breakfast.

Our stay at Landison Longjing Resort Hangzhou was so memorable and absolutely magnificent that highlights remain sharp, vivid, and immensely uplifting. As tea lovers, it would have been lovely enough to be back in deciduous forests with bursting red maples and bright yellow Ginko trees accentuating autumn colors surrounding the beautifully manicured Longjing (Dragon Well) tea plantations that rest quietly within the hills of the peaceful landscape so very close to the resort—next to and just across the street, in fact! However, our trip’s joys skyrocketed with our stay at the Landison. The staff was totally fantastic! Exceptional service in every way. Working with a phone translator Tracy, Brandy, Wen Yi (I hope his name is spelled correctly!), and Chris provided patient, attentive, and thorough care, concern, and heartwarming attention as they fully considered and answered our many daily questions on where to go, what to do, how to get there and back. (We were thrilled to use the excellent public transportation in and around Hangzhou. The hotel is just meters from the bus stop of two main lines. These buses provided easy connections to other main lines linking us to much of the rest of the city) Staff also guided us where to buy excellent tea, which turned out to be right there at the hotel, as well as from other lovely teashops nearby! Landison’s breakfast menu, included in our booking, remained the same throughout our stay and never disappointed. Every day we enjoyed a large selection of beautiful, delicious food that included fresh fruit, vegetables, egg dishes of differing styles, rice, dim sum, pastries, and our go-to each day: a piping hot bowl of noodles, prepared to order by the chef standing behind the varied selection of noodles and fixings! There was so much fresh, delicious, interesting, vegetarian cuisine we can’t account for the entire extensive buffet. The dining staff was totally incredible with their refined, careful, complete attention. Dining Room Manager Xu became our dear, memorable friend, offering us sweet, caring personal attention and comfort throughout our visit. We couldn’t help feeling disappointed when we didn’t see her the day before we were to leave. When we returned to the hotel for the evening and saw her through a dining room window, we popped into the area to say hello and a magical connection manifested that only world travel can provide, when the distance between two vastly different cultures disappears under the glow of human kindness, warmth, and connection. She provided such outstanding delight for us that our hearts hurt when we had to say goodbye to her. When she translated on her mobile phone, “looking forward to seeing you again,” we smiled broadly and added a very hopeful nod in agreement. Extra lovely perks included nightly delivery of a delicate, nourishing white mushroom soup to keep us warm and help us sleep, a specialty of the establishment. It was tasty and nurturing every day! The housekeeping staff was amiable and friendly, mutually acknowledging and appreciating the human relationship!  In addition, the parking area staff offered cheerful, welcoming, and happy engagement with us throughout our stay. Our extraordinary stay at the Landison is the kind of experience that highlights the vast benefits of world travel where the barriers of worldly concerns and tensions can fade away or even disappear into the significant and transformative mix and engagement with a time and place different from where we come from or know habitually. Where one realizes that, although time and place may differ considerably and provide many positive catalysts for meaningful change, the human heart and mind are inextricably linked together by way of mutual desires for happiness, well-being, safety, expression, and connection, however that may unfold in its immeasurable arrangements. Thank you very much, Landison Longjing Resort Hangzhou, for helping to create an amazing lifetime memory.

We stayed for two nights with our child and absolutely loved it! You definitely have to book a lake view room; the view from the balcony is simply stunning. We spent ages just standing there, soaking in the view every morning and evening! All the staff at the front desk were incredibly kind and enthusiastic. The doorman was also very diligent and responsible, opening car doors, helping with luggage, and being particularly sweet with our child. The ladies at the restaurant were also wonderful; even though breakfast was a buffet, they'd ask what we wanted to eat and drink and even help us get it. Our child couldn't get enough of the infinity pool; renting floats there was very cheap, and they provided towels, which made things so easy. We also tried the fish head soup at the lake view restaurant – it was a bit pricey, but the taste was genuinely different from what you'd find elsewhere. Oh, and the plum juice in the lobby was just delicious! We each had at least two cups every time we passed by. I even saw a delivery driver grab a cup after dropping off an order – very good indeed! 👍

Although the hotel is a bit old, the hardware is generally well-maintained. However, the cleanliness needs improvement, especially on the balcony where the railings were dusty – even though it's an outdoor area, it still needs better upkeep! Inside, the diamond-patterned room divider, which was trendy back in the day, is indeed hard to clean, but I'm sure the housekeeping department will be able to handle it once they notice it ✊. The breakfast selection is limited; it's filling, but doesn't quite match the hotel's star rating. What truly stood out, however, was the exceptional service. From the concierge to the front desk, the restaurant staff, and even the occasional encounter with housekeeping, everyone was warm, polite, and attentive. Olive, who I contacted via WeChat, was incredibly responsive and efficient in handling any requests, even those I just casually mentioned. For someone who values service above all else, this more than made up for the shortcomings I noted earlier. 😂

Wuzhen was the highlight of our summer trip, as I wanted my children to experience the charm of a Jiangnan water town. Wuzhen did not disappoint. The scenic area is well-managed, the water is clear and green with schools of fish, and black swans glide gracefully. Despite the scorching summer heat, there was no unpleasant odor and, surprisingly, no mosquitoes. That truly amazed me. Our stay at Jintang was flawless, apart from the price. The room was spacious, the bedding was completely dry, and all facilities were well-maintained. The infinity pool had excellent water quality, and the lifeguards were very responsible and polite. The sound bath experience was fantastic; an hour felt better than a full night's sleep 👍. I especially want to thank Butler Xiao Fan. Despite the heat, he met us at the entrance and, when we left, he pushed our luggage cart all the way to our taxi. He was always responsive to all our questions. A big thank you to him! I hope the handsome young man is happy every day 😊. One more thing left a lasting impression: my child needed to attend an online class, and the butler helped us arrange a meeting room. During the class, another staff member arrived with a laptop for a meeting. Upon entering and seeing the children studying, he quietly exited. We told him he could use another room, but this unnamed gentleman said that the children's studies were more important and that he would find another room for his meeting. Furthermore, the rich collection of books and free reading spaces at Wuzhen Zhaoming Academy deeply reflect the town's emphasis on culture and education, and everyone's humble demeanor 👏👏👏.

My stay exceeded expectations! The Mercure Hangzhou Westlake Hubin boasts a prime location, close to West Lake and with convenient subway access to a bustling commercial area. The room was meticulously clean, and the facilities were well-maintained, ensuring a comfortable stay. The front desk staff provided attentive service, were pleasant, and handled requests efficiently. Breakfast offered a wide variety, allowing for a leisurely meal. The 24-hour front desk, luggage storage, and borrowing services were all very convenient. It's suitable for both leisure and short business trips, highly recommended. I stayed at the Mercure Hangzhou Westlake Hubin for a business trip. It's located in the central Hubin commercial district with excellent transport links; the subway reaches major stations. The room was clean and quiet, perfect for both work and rest. The front desk handled requests efficiently and provided appropriate service. The hotel facilities are comprehensive, and the breakfast quality is excellent. The overall environment is quiet, making it suitable for business travel. I'll prioritize staying here on my next business trip. I stayed at the Mercure Hangzhou Westlake Hubin for a business trip.

Our family's first summer trip – Naked Stables. Our little one rushed to Moganshan right after school, still in her uniform! Even though it was the rainy season, it had its own unique charm. **Environment:** Secluded and tranquil, with various standalone round houses or villas nestled in the valley. The landscape design ensures excellent privacy. There are also plenty of activities, making it a great place for a holiday! **Facilities:** The in-room amenities are all excellent, and the minibar is well-stocked. Even the chargeable snacks are delicious! On rainy days, it's perfect for enjoying tea and snacks in the room. However, the bathroom in the round house felt a bit small, and the shower facilities were located on the balcony, which was inconvenient to use on rainy evenings. My elderly parents had no choice but to use the bathtub, which was quite inconvenient. Later, we discovered the water heater wasn't working. The butler responded quickly, but it took an hour to fix the hardware, and still no hot water. The duty manager then proactively and very thoughtfully came to check on us and kindly moved us to another room where we could finally enjoy a comfortable hot shower. **Service:** The butler service contacted us by phone before check-in to pre-register our license plate, allowing for seamless entry without stopping. The hotel also offers a wide range of entertainment programs for both adults and children. Our child loved it, quietly enjoying handicraft activities and horseback riding. Our little girl especially adored it and rode for half an hour each day during our two-day stay. **Exquisite Naked Stables Souvenirs:** The cups are commemorative, and each room area is named after an animal. The various merchandise sold in the lobby is also very appealing and meaningful; we bought some to take home! **Restaurants:** There's an Italian Western restaurant and a Chinese restaurant, both with good food. The set menus at the Western restaurant were decent, and à la carte options weren't expensive.

My business trip stay at Hufu Inn exceeded my expectations. The room was incredibly spacious, with a solid wood desk perfect for working. The bedding had visible cotton seeds, felt healthy, soft, and comfortable, washing away all the fatigue from work. What impressed me most was the hotel's public areas and service. While relaxing in the cafe with lush greenery outside the window, the staff thoughtfully brought me hot tea. There were complimentary fruits and snacks available, and they even helped me print and bind my documents. The Hangzhou cuisine in the restaurant was also delicious. The concierge recommended Longjing shrimp, which was perfect for one person, and even gave me a complimentary Dongpo pork. I'll definitely consider staying here again.

We stayed for one night with our parents and kids, and it was a fantastic experience! The butler, Crystal, created a group chat beforehand to confirm our arrival time and asked about the guests, recommending suitable floors and rooms – very thoughtful. The cliff-side room offers absolutely stunning views. At night, after Deqing city lights dim, you can stargaze. I initially thought the castle restaurant would be expensive, but after eating there, I found it to be excellent value for money. Although we had to wait a little, all the dishes were freshly prepared and of a very high standard, far surpassing any restaurant in the village at the foot of the mountain. For entertainment, there's an infinity pool, billiards, ping-pong, pottery, archery, and more. It's not crowded, so you can enjoy everything. For pottery, you need to queue early; we missed out at 10 AM. Friends told me the spa is also top-notch, so I'll try it next time. Finally, I have to mention the photoshoot. Each room gets three complimentary photos. The photographer was incredibly patient, and the photo editor was kind and beautiful. There was absolutely no hard-selling. I initially thought of buying a few extra photos, but then I was told that since we had three rooms, we could get nine photos! The photography, composition, and editing were simply superb. I also want to thank Crystal and Lily again for their patience and understanding. It was hot, which can be stressful, and we encountered a few minor issues. After effective communication, the cause was quickly identified and resolved efficiently. **Facilities:** The cliff-side room is fully equipped, and the pastoral cabin offers good value for money. **Hygiene:** Clean and tidy. There were some small insects in the castle during the evening. **Environment:** Absolutely stunning. **Service:** Probably the best service I've ever experienced in a hotel. **On-site travel photoshoot:** I've already reviewed it above. All I can say is it's worth the money. If it wasn't so hot, I would have done a whole session!

The room was clean, tidy, quiet, and spacious, just like the photos on the hotel's website – you can book with confidence. The hotel lobby has a unique design, and the staff are warm and attentive. There's complimentary coffee and afternoon tea in the lobby that you can take back to your room. The breakfast buffet is 68 RMB, with a rich variety of dishes, and is well worth trying. For lunch, you can order à la carte; the portions are generous, and the food tastes great. There's also a self-service laundry room with very clean machines.
