Lancang Hotels with Balcony

I came from Taiwan on a solo trip after seeing a recommendation on Xiaohongshu. I took a bus from Shaxi to Dali at 9 am, then took the high-speed rail from Dali to Kunming and then to Pu'er. After a long bus ride over mountains, I arrived at the hotel at 8 pm. The warm and comfortable atmosphere of the hotel completely dispelled the hardships of the journey. It was a magical atmosphere. The hotel was very comfortable, and most of the guests were solo female travelers. It was easy to find travel buddies to share meals and make plans to travel to other places next time. Every night, the owner would brew Pu'er tea. I especially liked the unique glutinous rice black tea. While strolling around the hotel, the owner even took me on her little motorcycle to some hidden spots in the mountains to eat, drink, and take photos. In short, it was a wonderful place. When I left, I also took some of my favorite Pu'er tea home to share.

Having seen many reviews about the poor hygiene, inadequate service, and lack of facilities at guesthouses in Jingmai Mountain, I had already lowered my expectations. However, the actual experience exceeded my expectations. They had all the disposable toiletries that hotels usually provide. The owners were incredibly kind, cooking free rice noodles for everyone every morning and inviting guests for tea. In the evenings, they would knock on the door and bring freshly grilled pork belly – it smelled amazing and was incredibly delicious! The guesthouse's location was also fantastic; you could see the sea of ​​clouds right from the window, and it was very quiet at night. It was truly excellent value for money. The owners also sell tea, and I bought some to bring back as gifts for my family before leaving – the prices were very reasonable. Superb!

This hotel is a comprehensive wellness resort with excellent facilities, including hot spring pools, an infinity pool, and a health clinic. The entire hotel has over 260 rooms, spread across several buildings, offering both standard rooms and villas. The front desk upgraded me to a mountain view room upon check-in, and when I provided feedback at check-out, they also gave me a tea gift. I found interesting folk handicrafts at the gift shop. Service could be improved. The promised welcome fruit was never delivered, and there was no proactive introduction to the hotel's facilities or the various experience packages. When I inquired, most of them were unavailable for booking. The afternoon tea pastries were not impressive. The restaurant had very few non-spicy options, and the selection was too limited. The second-floor platform needs better management. Also, guests in the lobby on the first floor were still being noisy late at night. Overall, it's much better than the established quiet luxury hotels nearby, but there's still room for improvement.

The owners, a husband and wife, are very kind and helpful. They offered to help with parking and provided travel tips for nearby attractions. The soup for the breakfast noodles was slow-cooked by the owner's wife 🤫 The nearby attractions are all incredibly beautiful.

Facilities: Very new, completely comparable to five-star hotel-level facilities! Hygienic: Open the door and a fragrance comes out. I am very surprised that there are natural aromas such as flowers and Pu'er tea bergamots in the room! Whether it is in the room or in the public area, it is very clean! Very pleasantly surprised that there is a small disinfection cabinet in the room! The dishes and chopsticks used during breakfast time are also very clean! ! Environment: impeccable! ! I can feel that the boss is creating it with heart! The details are particularly good! Every place in the inn is a scenery. Every place is a romantic design by the boss. 💕 Service: The boss also helped to take pictures to help with luggage and parking. He took the initiative to invite tea and chat. He was very enthusiastic.

I really loved this hotel! It was so much cleaner than I expected, and you absolutely must book a balcony room. The view from the window was breathtaking – a sea of ​​clouds! It was so comfortable! I'll definitely stay in Wengji for a few nights next time. I forgot to take pictures of the hotel, but the bathroom was very clean too. The owners were also incredibly kind and simple; I love Wengji Ancient Village!

Last year, I decided to spend three days in Jingmai Mountain for Chinese New Year. Coincidentally, the Holiday Inn at the foot of Jingmai Mountain was about to open and offering a promotion, so I booked it without hesitation. The hotel is located in Huimin Town, at the base of Jingmai Mountain. In town, there's Bolian, Liushi, and reportedly, an Aman that's under construction. The hotel's immediate surroundings are nothing special; the commercial area meant to complement it feels unfinished, but it doesn't affect your stay. Parking is right by the hotel entrance on the roadside. The room seemed to have been treated for formaldehyde, as there was no strange odor. Breakfast was decent, but felt a bit basic. I think it could be more elaborate, considering it's a resort hotel. The staff were all very enthusiastic and proactive in resolving any issues; their attitude was excellent, they were never unhelpful. After all, it's an international chain with consistent training, standards, and service.

It's good that the homestay is right in the village. In the morning, all the roosters crow at sunrise. It's more pleasant than the noises made by cars driving past the road right under the window. The male receptionist doesn't have many words. The female receptionist made tea and chatted with us. The room was not cleaned and the necessities were not stocked daily. The window is tinted with green and made the view out of the window appears nicer in one section.

The girlfriends are together to eat, drink and stroll, travel on the staggered peak, Jingmai Mountain itinerary full score 💯 It’s right to have a rain, and it’s also right to have a sea of tea mountains and clouds! Staying at the famous hotel opened by Pu'er Tea Non-genetic inheritor Yuan Wen, the two families take care of it personally. The room is oversized and the twin bed can easily accommodate 4 people. The boss will soak in the homemade Pu'er every day to entertain guests from all over the world. The proprietress cooks good dishes. In the evening, the little brother and sister will roast corn sweet potatoes and make milk tea to talk to everyone around the stove. Although September is not the tea picking season, the tea picking experience can still participate. After the rain, the fresh air and various cicadas called to sweep the hustle and bustle of the city for two nights and three days. It was fleeting. The night before leaving, I was fortunate to taste the Iceland treasured by Master Yuwen. I returned to Gan, which was extraordinary! When I went down the mountain the next day, I rarely encountered the sea of clouds. Life is worth it! Looking forward to gathering again next time, I wish the homestay better and better!

I rarely write accommodation reviews, but this time I really want to give a shout-out 😊 Our stay at Guesthouse No. 56 in Wengji Ancient Village was exceptionally comfortable! The room was clean and tidy, the bedding was soft, and the view from the window was breathtaking – endless tea plantations and a sea of ​​clouds. The owners, a husband and wife, are the same age as us and we had a lot to talk about. They sell tea and run a guesthouse, and even during the busy Chinese New Year period, they drove us around the sights for free, saving us the trouble of not knowing the roads and finding parking! They invited us to drink tea and chat, sharing our lives and experiencing authentic Bulang ethnic life. Although there was no breakfast, there were small shops nearby, which was very convenient. Wengji Ancient Village was our favorite of all the villages we visited in Jingmai Mountain, and I sincerely hope that no matter how long it goes on, it can maintain its simple and honest folk customs and touching scenery, and not be eroded by commercialization!
