3-Star Hotels in Yuanyang

Yiqiutian Inn was newly opened in August last year. The facilities are very modern and the decoration is also good. It is especially clean and hygienic. The proprietress and the boss are very enthusiastic and responsible. They helped us upgrade the view room so that we can see the terraced fields outside from the room. They came and went to help us carry our suitcases upstairs. When we left, they also enthusiastically gave us red rice. They responded to our needs in a timely manner and provided relevant information about going out to see the terraced fields, which saved us from unnecessary detours. It was a very good stay experience. The Yuanyang Terraces are really beautiful and this trip is very worthwhile. Thanks to the boss and the proprietress for their enthusiastic service. The dishes cooked by the proprietress are also very tasty.

Nestled in the breathtaking terraced fields scenic area, Flower Nest offers a stunning panorama from its private viewing platform. It's like a living landscape painting unfolding before your eyes, with misty terraced fields seemingly within reach. The guesthouse's design beautifully blends with nature, and the service is incredibly attentive and warm, from the owner to the aunties. Even though the Hani aunties don't speak Mandarin, their friendliness and enthusiasm are infectious. Whether for sightseeing, relaxation, or photography, this place is a perfect choice. Some might say the only minor drawback is the 160 steps you need to climb [chuckles], but for me, it was an amazing experience. Walking along the picturesque path with the auntie carrying our luggage was an absolute delight.

The location is fantastic, right in the heart of Aicun village, with the Blue Terraces just downstairs. There's also a rapeseed flower field directly below the guesthouse, offering direct access to the terraces through the flower fields. It's not far from the Hadaipu observation deck and Azheke village, both within walking distance. If you don't feel like walking, there's a village shuttle bus for 10 yuan per person round trip. The guesthouse also offers ethnic costumes for photo ops, which is a nice touch.

So happy with this stay! High-end, modern facilities in the most incredible location. Felt more like a four star hotel. Some of the best pictures I got in Yuanyang were taken right on my balcony. The room was spacious, the staff were so helpful, and the hotel food was delicious. It's a bit more on the expensive side relative to nearby hotels, but I think it's well worth the money. Would definitely stay here again!

You can’t get a better view. Of all the terraces, 多依樹 Duoyishu is the best one and all the rooms here have a large window over looking the terraces. There’s also roof top access to a big viewing platform. Breakfast is good and the hotel can serve dinner at a cost, it was reasonable and the fish was delicious!! The beds have warming function and heating unit worked great. Warm milk before bedtime was a great plus. The shower and toilets are in the same space, even though the space is big, I still thought it was a bit awkward, but over all I had a wonderful time! Don’t come with a lot of luggage, there’s a short trail you have to walk, they will carry your luggage for you but better pack light. Will remember always.

First of all, I like the decoration style of the room, it is very clean. Pictures 5, 6, and 7 are not the room types I booked. I passed by other rooms that were not occupied and they were so beautiful that I couldn't help but take pictures outside the door. The living room is also beautiful, but I forgot to take a panoramic photo. There is a cute cat, super clingy. You can watch the sunrise directly from the rooftop. It is also close to the Duoyishu Observation Deck. It is not convenient to have breakfast here, but the inn provides it. Rooms without breakfast need to pay an additional 10 yuan, which is a reasonable price. There is also a restaurant next to it, which is convenient for eating and tastes good. Parking is convenient. In short, I am satisfied!

Service: My tire pressure kept going off, so I called the owner to ask where I could get a tire repaired. He gave me two directions. We were turned away at the first one in Shengcun (it was closed). We were about to head down the mountain to the old county town when we saw another one at the exit of a one-way street and got the air in. After driving to the private parking lot, we called the B&B to come and help us with our luggage. A Hani woman swiftly carried our 17kg suitcase. The owner was gentle and versatile. Since it was raining, we decided to eat at the B&B. She prepared stir-fried chicken, a mushroom omelet, beetroot egg drop soup, and garlic chayote flowers, and even gave us fried peanuts to go with our drinks. Facilities: The room amenities were excellent, with Kohler bathroom fixtures. The only downside was the lack of a curtain around the toilet. Environment: The view of the terraced rice fields couldn't be better! I could sit on the balcony and watch the sea of ​​clouds. There's even a phone holder on the railing for time-lapse photography—a really thoughtful touch. It's about a ten-minute walk from the Duoyishu Observation Deck. Unfortunately, it rained both days we stayed there, so we didn't get to see either sunrise or sunset. There's a local dog named Guolai in the shop. He's so well-behaved, but he's trying to lose weight.

This guesthouse boasts an excellent location for viewing the Duoyishu Rice Terraces. After staying for two days and comparing numerous guesthouses along the Duoyishu Terraces, I can confidently say this one has a large and well-positioned viewing deck. I highly recommend it for anyone planning to catch the sunrise at the Duoyishu viewing platform. You won't need to rush there early and battle crowds; instead, you can leisurely photograph the sunrise right from the guesthouse's deck. Duoyishu Terraces are often foggy, and sunrises can be elusive, so it's a good idea to check the weather forecast beforehand. If it's foggy, you can simply wait comfortably in your room for the sun to break through before heading down. The guesthouse is built into the hillside, so cars can't drive directly to the entrance. While there's a parking lot, it's a short walk from there to the guesthouse. The hostess will meet you with an electric scooter to help with your luggage, so I'd advise packing light. The owners are a local couple; the husband cooks and the wife handles guests, and they are both very friendly. The room insulation could be better, but overall, its minor flaws are easily overlooked. Recommended!

The room facilities were very new, and the double room had smart curtains, which is considered very good for the Yuanyang Rice Terraces. Breakfast was served at the hotel restaurant: rice noodles and eggs. The view was fantastic, overlooking two-thirds of the beautiful Duoyishu area – absolutely wonderful!

The room was very spacious and well-equipped, with excellent furnishings. Parking was very convenient. It's located on a hillside on the other side of the scenic area, quite far from Duoyishu, so the sunrise view is significantly less impressive. The furniture was solid wood, but the bathtub and shower water temperature was only 40°C; I soaked for 20 minutes and it got freezing cold. The front desk staff weren't very attentive to guests. When I asked about the weather, they simply replied ”I don't know” and that was it. While this is understandable, one day while she was smoking, she greeted me, and I was throwing away trash in front of her because I had too many things in my hands. She didn't even get up to help. Basically, you're only treated as a guest room; there's no other information or service.
