Anshun Hotels with Bars

This internet-famous guesthouse truly lives up to its reputation, with a total of 24 rooms. The biggest drawback is the number of stairs and the lack of an elevator, but everything else is excellent! Location: It's situated next to the Balinghe Bridge in Guanling, about a 15-20 minute drive from the main Huangguoshu scenic area. Ambiance: It's a popular guesthouse located in a small, charming village. The air is filled with the scent of mugwort. The 4th-floor observation deck is perfect for watching both sunsets and sunrises. You'll hear roosters crowing in the morning. Facilities: Be prepared to climb stairs, as the highest floor is the 4th. There is a dedicated luggage elevator for your bags. The rooms are spacious, the bedding is comfortable, and the air conditioning is powerful but a bit noisy (earplugs are provided by the hotel). There's a self-service laundry room with two washing machines and two dryers, along with laundry pods. Service: The butler-style service is prompt and friendly. I really appreciated the small farewell gift upon check-out. Cleanliness: Very good. Restaurant: They offer a buffet breakfast, à la carte lunch, and dinner requires advance ordering and reservation, with a notification when it's ready. The cocktails at the bar are excellent.

Let's start with the positives: The location is incredibly convenient, just across the road from a VIP center. The hotel has a nice design aesthetic; the entrance features photos documenting its development. They offer free Miao ethnic costumes for guests to borrow and take photos (about ten women's costumes are available in the lobby). The batik painting activity, however, is not recommended. Breakfast is decent, meeting four-star hotel standards. There's a welcome fruit plate and complimentary drinks. Now for the issues: 1. They don't offer guest pick-up/drop-off, and the location pin leads to the park entrance. 2. For two adults, they provided one large and one small pillow. When I inquired, the hotel said this was standard and I had to request an additional pillow (photo attached). 3. The room is small, comparable to the smallest room type at Hanting, with everything in plain view (photo attached). 4. The bathroom handle easily came off (photo attached). 5. The air conditioning panel was unresponsive and the room was freezing; the TV remote didn't work, so I couldn't turn off the screen. 6. After boiling water, the kettle lid accidentally fell into the kettle (photo attached). 7. Although there's a pool, it's an unsupervised large trough with only two sun loungers that smelled heavily of smoke. Children were entering the water in slippers, and some without swimwear. Needless to say, the water quality was questionable (photo taken without entering the water).

A True Hidden Gem – The Best Hot Spring Hotel in Guizhou!Having stayed at three different hot spring hotels across Guizhou, I can confidently say that Kaiyuan Mingdu is a true hidden gem and the absolute best of them all!The Indoor Hot Spring: The highlight of the stay was the indoor hot spring tub. It was incredibly relaxing, private, clean, and the perfect way to unwind in comfort. 5-Star Breakfast: The breakfast buffet was spectacular! It is easily one of the best spreads we have ever experienced, offering an amazing selection of high-quality, delicious options. I have never experienced that I am able to scoop my own tofu pudding at a breakfast buffet! Such a treat as it’s my favorite!!! They think of all possible options , and most importantly , quality taste! Love it!!! Convenient Facilities: They provide a fantastic self-service laundry room complete with an iron, which was incredibly convenient and made managing our clothes effortless. Area for Improvement:The overall hospitality is professional, but the experience would be even better if the staff were encouraged to smile more and bring a bit more warmth to their service.Despite that minor note, this resort stands out far above the others for its luxury and convenience. We will definitely book this hotel again the next time we retur Guizhou.

The hotel's location is excellent; turn left outside, and you can catch a tourist bus to various scenic routes. The hotel itself is quite good, with a well-equipped gym and laundry room, and the breakfast is also decent. Five-star praise goes to the hotel's operations manager! We met him when our child was playing in the pool, and he gave us many great tips on how to explore the Big Waterfall and other fun and tasty spots nearby. We followed his advice: in the morning, we went to Tianxingqiao, then did the 'Little Yellow Duck' rafting. Around 4 PM, we visited the Big Waterfall and walked through the Water Curtain Cave. At the exit, we tried Gongding tea. Because rafting took up some time, we had to skip Doupotang, saving it for a night tour next time. Finally, at Visitor Center No. 2, we used our package ticket for the 'Fly Over Huangguoshu' experience. It was a perfect day, and we're very grateful for the suggestions!

There's a reason this hotel has a 4.6 rating. The Four Points by Sheraton in Shanghai is genuinely good, with excellent service and facilities. I chose it specifically because it advertised tie-dyeing, as other high-end B&Bs also offer it, and I wanted a unique experience. However, to my surprise, the front desk informed me that the instructor was off for two days, yet the activity was still listed. They even said it was free, implying it wasn't a big deal... Ctrip was very responsible, calling me several times, and eventually arranged for two complimentary breakfasts. It's a bit of a shame I didn't get to experience the tie-dyeing. As for the facilities, they are as pictured, and the air conditioning might even be older than me! The lady at breakfast was incredibly fierce; although she didn't directly confront me, her interactions with other guests were quite rude. Many staff members seemed uninformed about things, like whether tickets could be used consecutively. The concierge at the entrance completely ignored parking, and I only got to use the shuttle once, having to take taxis for all other trips. However, the scenery at Huangguoshu is beautiful, and the staff there are exceptionally well-trained, much better than the hotel staff.

Qianshouju Hotel at Huangguoshu exceeded my expectations. Before booking, I'd read many online reviews, which mainly focused on two points: 1. **Excellent Location:** It's right inside the scenic area, with a dedicated, very convenient access channel to Huangguoshu Waterfall. 2. **Outdated Facilities:** The hotel is old, and its facilities are reportedly not good. My actual experience after checking in: 1. **Location:** The first point above gets full marks – absolutely fantastic! The location was the main reason I chose Qianshouju. 2. **Hotel Condition:** The public areas and amenities are perfectly fine. It seems it was once a state-owned hotel, giving it a grand and upscale feel. The room facilities are maintained at a decent level, though the shower area is a bit dated. 3. **Value for Money:** Compared to other hotels around the scenic area, the room rates are indeed on the higher side. However, given its special location and the convenience it offers, I personally find it acceptable. It saved us a lot of time and was incredibly convenient – totally worth it! 4. **Dining:** We dined at the hotel's Chinese restaurant both nights of our stay. The prices and taste were decent and acceptable. Breakfast was also good. 5. **Service:** I must specifically mention the excellent service, including the parking service and baggage handling. If I have the chance to visit Huangguoshu again, I would still choose to stay at this hotel.

The room was upgraded and it is very spacious with a high cost performance ratio! The key point is that the B&B is located in the scenic area. There is also a free shuttle bus to the Tianxing Bridge Scenic Area, so you can avoid the surging crowds during the May Day holiday by traveling in the morning and evening. In addition to its good location, the B&B is also beautiful, clean and comfortable, with considerate and in-place service. There is also a small ball pool and a slide in the room for children to play. It is a first-class experience to travel with children~ Five-star praise!

The inn I found temporarily during the Qingming Festival is located in Yunshan Village, which is very convenient. The owner and his family are very hospitable and they organize concerts in the evening, which is very pleasant. Most of the shops in the village are still under renovation. The place is not big and relatively quiet. You can go directly to Yunjiu Mountain to visit Yunjiu Temple next to it. At this time, you can overlook the rapeseed fields of Yunfeng Tunbu, which is very beautiful. The only thing is that you can't drive to the top of the mountain. You need to walk a mountain road to get in, but it's not far. Overall, it's good. I will come again next time if I have the chance.

Room: The room was spacious and we had a very comfortable stay. Cleanliness: Very clean, exceeding expectations. Environment: There are many restaurants nearby, offering a wide range of choices. Service: The front desk staff were very welcoming, and the shuttle driver was very attentive. It's very close to the scenic area. The driver told us about safety precautions, and we also asked him about discounts for overnight tickets. Huangguoshu Scenic Area Shuttle Service: The car was very clean, and the staff were very friendly; just let us know in advance.

I called the hotel to arrange a pick-up for two elderly relatives. Even though their regular driver was off, the owner managed to find a car to bring them to the hotel. My relatives were very pleased with the room I booked for them; they even sent me a video showing the nice view from the window. They also mentioned the room was spacious and clean.
