Putuo Mountain Wuyue Mountain Lodge (Pujisi Temple)

This is a homestay (民宿), so do not expect the same level of service or amenities you would normally find in a hotel. The property is located within a residential estate, giving visitors a glimpse into the self-sustained local lifestyle in Putuo Shan. Based on the condition of the buildings, I believe this is an older estate, and many units have been renovated into hotel-style rooms for travelers. The homestay is about a 5-minute walk from the bus station. Each bus ride costs either RMB 5 or RMB 10 depending on the distance, payable by QR code. Private cars are not allowed inside the Putuo Scenic Area. If you have small luggage, you can bring it on the bus; for larger suitcases, you can arrange courier transport for rmb10 per piece per way—your guide or the owner can provide more details. The beds and bathroom are clean and well-maintained. We were satisfied with our 2-night stay. Tips: The owner provides disposable one-time-use towels. They are thin and small, so bring your own towel if you prefer something more comfortable. There are breakfast options right at the entrance. For lunch and dinner, it’s about a 5–8 minute walk from the building. We personally preferred the small local restaurant over the larger seafood restaurant. It is 1.7km to Puji Temple and 2.2km walk to Harbour. We chose to take bus as too much walking for us for the day already.
