Hidden in the magic city, a quintessential Japanese hotel offers an instant Kyoto experience

It's rare to find such a richly designed Japanese garden in the bustling city, reminiscent of the hotel's design philosophy: 'Only when accommodation and garden seasons blend with one's mood can one truly appreciate the beauty of Japan', which is quite touching. Lobby The hotel lobby's solid wood long table is adorned with objects collected by the founder, Zhang Jing. According to the staff, there will also be many traditional craftsmen's cultural and artistic performances at specific times. The front desk displays a variety of items, and you don't need to go to Japan to take authentic photos of kimonos. Rooms The hotel covers an area of 3,000 square meters, but to ensure the best effect, only 34 rooms were made. In addition to the garden rooms on the first floor themed after the four seasons, the other 30 rooms are named after Japanese plants. The three rooms we stayed in are named Qianliang, Yamabuki, and Manzuo, and just the names are appealing. The room types are roughly divided into garden rooms, duplex rooms, and double rooms. The three rooms we stayed in were all double rooms, with Qianliang being the most noteworthy as it is a 270-degree panoramic room with floor-to-ceiling windows, offering a superb view of the meticulously crafted Japanese garden from the window. Private Bath, Tea Ceremony All rooms come with a private bath, which is the hotel's biggest feature, fully replicating the essence of a Japanese hot spring hotel. They also come with volcanic rocks, and the water is softened, with a variety of imported bath salts provided, making for a truly pleasant bath. Additionally, the hotel's owner has integrated the Japanese tea ceremony, and each room is equipped with custom tea sets. Amenities Tea ceremony performances, kimono experiences, divine Japanese cuisine, after passing through an entrance with distinctive Japanese characteristics and entering the hotel's black sliding doors, it feels like arriving in Japan. The hotel also has its own Japanese restaurant, Yakushima, with both private rooms and hall seating, and the taste is quite good. Experience According to the hotel staff, many people who come to stay here are willing to give up their subsequent travel plans just to spend a few more days here. If you're looking for a rare staycation amidst a busy schedule, Yushu and Ting is a great choice.
