Romantic Hotels in Shangrao

The Huazhu Wuyuan Yueyuan Wufei B&B is amazing! 👍 The renovation of the old house was meticulously done. A professional designer designed the courtyard, preserving its ancient charm while maintaining elegance and comfort. The rooms are cozy and inviting, ensuring a good night's sleep. The meals are authentic Wuyuan cuisine, and the proprietress's cooking is exceptional, making the specialties incredibly delicious. Breakfast and lunch offer a complete selection of Wuyuan specialties (pocket carp, steamed pork with rice flour, steamed fish with rice flour, Qingming fruit, etc.). The dishes are made with all-natural ingredients, including cucumber, cowpea, green pepper, and river chicken. The whole family devours every meal! You can also cycle along the rippling river, amidst the gently swaying blossoms. In the courtyard, you can play pot-to-pot together, creating a truly immersive experience. The attentive service makes it feel like home! 🥰 The proprietress and her family run the B&B as if it were their own home. Every corner of the old house holds history, every visitor has a story, and every dish the proprietress prepares is filled with warmth. It is better to come here by yourself after seeing and hearing it. Feel the inheritance of this history and the love for life.

Wanting to experience life in an ancient Huizhou village in Wuyuan, I chose Mingxun Courtyard · Yunshuiyao in Shangtan Village, nestled behind a thousand-year-old camphor tree. Pushing open the weathered wooden door, I discovered that this old Huizhou-style house held 300 years of history – it was once the residence of a third-rank official during the Yongzheng period of the Qing Dynasty, later serving as a stage and a school, and now, a 'living artifact' that you can stay in. **Time Travel in a Three-Courtyard Home** Walking further inside on the bluestone slabs, the front hall still exuded the grandeur of its official past. The carvings on the wooden beams, though showing signs of age, were carefully preserved. I stayed in the 'Poetry & Ritual Cultural Panorama King Room.' The four-poster wooden bed was draped with a light gauze canopy, but the best part was the window-side tatami. Leaning there in the afternoon, brewing tea and listening to the rain, I almost felt transported back to a Ming and Qing dynasty noble family. **Poetic Living Amidst Old Relics** The housekeeper mentioned that the restoration here was 'as old as new,' even the roof beams retained their original wooden structure. The house has three floors in total. The second floor of the front hall displays many antique vanity items, along with Hanfu and Qipao available for guests to choose from. Wearing Hanfu here and taking photos, you can get amazing shots anywhere. There are also chessboards, a tea room, and a desk with brushes for passing the time. **Village Charm and Distant Horizons** Outside the guesthouse, there's a thousand-year-old camphor tree that many people come to photograph. Shangtan Village itself was a filming location for 'I Am Not Madame Bovary,' and you can reach the small bridge and flowing water from the movie within a two-minute walk from the guesthouse. This feeling of 'living in the scenery' is so much more comfortable than just visiting attractions. Check-in also included afternoon tea and breakfast. Additionally, there are coffee shops and local farm-to-table restaurants around the guesthouse. Inside, there's also a dining area where the auntie cooks authentic Wuyuan dishes, and the breakfast is also very rich, featuring local specialties that are both comforting and heartwarming.

Wuyuan Yueweitang Guofeng Hotel boasts stunning Huizhou-style architecture and an elegant, picturesque environment. Nestled by mountains and water, the air is wonderfully fresh. The complimentary dinner provided by the hotel was absolutely delicious, featuring dishes like stir-fried pork with chili, spicy chicken, and green vegetables. Our family of three thoroughly enjoyed the meal and left feeling very satisfied. The hotel's infinity pool is incredibly photogenic; in the evenings and early mornings, many children could be seen playing there. We also took a dip ourselves – the water was crystal clear, and swimming under the sun was a truly delightful experience. The complimentary traditional Chinese Hanfu-style attire was also beautiful. Taking photos by the hotel's traditional lotus pond while wearing them yielded some absolutely stunning pictures. Our room was clean, tidy, and remarkably spacious. Breakfast was abundant, with the buffet offering a wide variety of options to choose from.

The location of the homestay is on the central street, but it is not noisy. The boss service is particularly good, will pick up and drop off at the entrance of the village, and very enthusiastic and thoughtful. I also sent us chrysanthemum tea intimately. It happened that there was a tea set in the room. I was tired in summer and just dropped the fire. The room was clean and tidy, and the overall was good. If you like to live here, it is just right. If you want to seek the quietness of the countryside, you can consider the flower building at the entrance of the village. I looked very good when I passed by. The fields are on the left and right, and the wind is very fresh. The village is not big, so you don't have to worry about the problem of far away. We went in the summer, there were few people, many shops did not open, there was nothing to go shopping, a little disappointed. The wine shop opposite is very good, a large store, selling this kind of wine, the decoration is also very distinctive, friends who like to drink can go shopping.

This guesthouse, located within the Huangling Scenic Area, is operated by the scenic area itself, part of the same group as Zhushan Hotel. It includes tickets and cable car access. There's a special lane for the cable car, so you don't have to queue. After exiting the cable car station, an electric shuttle takes you to the reception center, where a butler then escorts you to your building. Overall, the experience was quite good. We were a group of three and chose a family room, which was assigned to the second floor of Shendetang, a location closer to the old town center. The environment was lovely. Although the building is very old (and the furnishings inside are also quite dated), it was relatively clean. It's suitable for those who don't mind older facilities (if you prefer something newer, Zhushan would be a better choice). Also, since it's a guesthouse in a tourist area, there are always visitors passing by. Old houses don't offer any soundproofing, so if you plan to rest in your room during the day, you'll need to bring earplugs. Breakfast required a walk to the Food Street. I initially expected it to be a mass-produced buffet, but the variety and taste were surprisingly good. I'd recommend it if the price isn't too inflated during off-peak seasons; otherwise, it might not be worth it.

Absolutely recommend Mingxun Tang -- the hotel is nestled in the heart of Yan Cun, one of the smaller, delightful, history-rich and less touristy of the Wuyuan villages. The location is a very convenient point from which to do day trips around the scenic spots in Wuyuan. The hotel is in a beautifully reformed old house -- it has a lovely garden and keeps parts of the original structure, as well as some memorabilia from its previous iteration such as receipts from the late Qing Dynasty! The rooms are lovely and well-equipped with all amenities. Finally, the service is wonderful -- it was the owners of the hotel that recommended our driver and guide for the trip! The hotel offers delicious home-cooked meals and although they don't have coffee they kindly helped us buy some from a nearby cafe and brought it to us. Overall a wonderful stay!

The location under the maple tree is excellent, just a few minutes' walk from Xiangao Ancient Town. This place is a quiet oasis in the heart of the city, nestled in an urban village with beautiful scenery. The cutest thing is that they have several lively and spirited cats. The room was quite stylish and comfortable, the shower water was nice and warm, and the service was excellent; the staff even helped me with my luggage.

We stayed for 3 days in this lovely hotel, the lady running the place was really nice and helped us organising trips in the Wuyuan area. From the terrace you have a great view of the village and can take great photos. The rooms are spacious and offer everything you need. The lobby/ breakfast area has a lot of charme, since all the furniture is from another era and so the place just feels very original and homey. Even though on 2 of 3 days we were the only guests, we got a full buffet of delicious Chinese food for breakfast, including a good coffee. The organised trips with Mister Yu were such a pleasure, he showed us the best spots in the area and was a really good driver.

Staying at Grand View Resort for our Sanqingshan trip really made it feel like a true getaway! The hotel is nestled among the mountains and forests, with elegant and peaceful Chinese-style courtyards. Taking an evening stroll on the terrace was incredibly therapeutic. It's also very close to the Jinsha cable car, making transportation convenient, and they offer shuttle service. The rooms are clean and stylish, with floor-to-ceiling windows offering direct mountain views; waking up to misty green peaks every morning was a dream. The bedding was comfortable, ensuring a great night's sleep. The hotel amenities are excellent, with a pool and sauna available. Breakfast was rich and delicious, and the service was attentive and thoughtful. It's a perfect escape from the city hustle, offering a relaxing holiday experience after hiking, ideal for family trips, and definitely the top choice for accommodation in Sanqingshan.

I booked this hotel at the foot of Mount Sanqing late in the evening, solely for the duplex layout. I didn't even check its location before booking, only to realize the next day when buying tickets that it's right next to the scenic area entrance – what a fantastic location! The next few photos are taken from the hotel's rooftop terrace – so beautiful! Oh, and summer in Sanqing Mountain is quite cool, though it can be a bit rainy. Sometimes you go up the mountain and it's so foggy you can't see anything, like being in the clouds. Now, about the stay itself. Even though it's a duplex, the bed on the first floor is a small one, tucked by the window near the staircase bend. It really only feels suitable for one person. If you're traveling with more people, this room configuration isn't ideal. My family of four (including two grown children) felt quite cramped sleeping there for one night. Actually, the first-floor space is quite large, but the hotel has used the bigger part for the living room. The sofa and coffee table just look out of place with the rest of the furniture, very mismatched and frankly, a bit low-rent. I can't help but wonder why they didn't just put a large bed on the first floor. That way, both levels of the duplex would have a big bed, and it would still feel spacious – wouldn't that be better? Oh, and here's a crucial point: the hotel's room hygiene definitely needs major improvement. On the toilet seat in the second-floor bathroom, we found some unidentified excrement *before* we even used it. When I communicated this to the staff, all I got was a simple ”sorry.” I ended up sanitizing the seat myself. Honestly, such disgusting hygiene issues are quite off-putting. I really hope they can strengthen their improvements in the future! Aside from that, everything else was quite satisfactory.
