[2024 Anji Stay] Travel Guide for Shannan Shenxi (Updated Sep)
Shanan Deep Creek
Weekend in Anji
Shanan Deep Creek
The scenery, decoration style, service, and breakfast were all very surprising.
The view from the room is a very beautiful mountain view. The large floor-to-ceiling windows in the room also make the view wider.
The decoration of the hotel is very artistic, with a sense of wabi-sabi.
The decoration of the homestay restaurant is also very high-end, and the breakfast is not exactly the same every day. The breakfast is very delicious, but the portion is not large, but it is just right for me~
The service of the hotel also surprised me a bit.

Hidden Paradise in Anji! Enjoy the mountain and forest views at the mid-mountain hotel!
😎Dear friends! I stayed at an amazing mid-mountain hotel in Anji, and the vacation experience has been elevated to a whole new level!🤩
🌄Vacationing in the mountains is truly a blessing. I enjoyed the dreamy mist on rainy days and the warm breeze on sunny days. The Shanan Hotel is located halfway up the mountain, offering an unparalleled view of the undisturbed forest and bamboo sea, making it stand out among the many hotels in Anji.
🌟Here are some highlights of this hotel:
📌【Architecture】
👉The triangular roof combined with the U-shaped exterior wall creates elegant and dynamic geometric lines that seem to respond to nature. The rammed earth-colored walls blend harmoniously with the natural surroundings, creating a beautiful and harmonious ecological effect in the green valley.
📌【Rooms】
👉The hotel has 17 rooms distributed among three independent buildings named 'Xu', 'Yi', and 'Chi'. Through the floor-to-ceiling windows or outdoor terraces, the mountain and forest scenery unfolds like a painting before your eyes.
😻The duplex private hot spring courtyard suite in 'Xu' building is absolutely stunning! It's hard not to be attracted by the huge U-shaped hot spring pool. The steam rising from the pool merges with the mountain mist, creating a fairyland-like atmosphere. The living room on the first floor is my favorite; turning on the sound system and lying on the sofa at night is so comfortable that you don't want to move. It's truly amazing.
📌【Public Area】
👉The cliffside terrace offers a super wide and pure mountain view, with a blue pool reflecting the mountain scenery, which is breathtakingly beautiful. Next to the pool is a multifunctional reception room and a mountain tea room. Brewing a pot of tea and enjoying some tea snacks while feeling the wind rustling the bamboo is the epitome of a relaxing vacation.

I do not allow you to choose this guesthouse when you come to Anji
Upon first sight, I found it to be stunningly beautiful beyond words, but it was only upon experiencing it firsthand that I realized how delicate and gentle it truly is...
Despite many negative reviews, as a designer, I still chose it from the many guesthouses in Anji. Compared to other conventional guesthouses, the ingenuity of Shan An is reflected in every corner you turn or lift your eyes to. Every corner bears the mark and arrangement of the designer, creating a harmony that seems as natural as if it were made by nature itself.
The basic room type also has plenty of space for activities, and at night, two people lying by the window chatting and daydreaming suddenly realize that during the Spring Festival, the noisy self beside them seems to be split apart. Such a stark contrast makes me immensely grateful and reluctant to leave after just a short day in the mountains of Anji...
Initially, I was afraid that the southern winter would be as bare as the north, but I was shocked by the greenery before even entering the mountains, and it happened to be good weather. Escaping from the dry and gloomy north to the spring in the southern mountains, I can finally stretch lazily and immerse myself in the good sunshine of these mountains.
It's a pity that this trip was too rushed, and I didn't have time to explore many of the public spaces in the hotel. I'll leave that for next time~
The hotel's welcome fruit was prepared with care, and the butler service was very attentive, but there were still a few unsatisfactory aspects:
1. The bathroom is too small, and the basin counter is so small that there is no place to put toiletries, let alone the guests' own toiletries.
2. The soundproofing of the room entrance door is too poor; the noise in the corridor can be heard very clearly.
3. Because it is in the mountains, the problem of mosquitoes and insects is inevitable. On the night of my stay, I found a large bug in the room. I am not afraid of such things, so I did not bother the butler and dealt with it myself, but other guests might mind and fear bugs, so I suggest that the service staff should do a thorough job in pest control.
4. The prices in the hotel restaurant are really not low, I don't know if it's because of the Spring Festival period. I suggest everyone solve dinner on the way here, and I recommend Wan Hong Restaurant!!! It's very, very delicious, the two of us finished all four dishes~

In the evening, surrounded by endless mountains and bamboo seas, drinking fragrant coffee, eating a full walnut tart, this is also a romantic experience that cannot be missed in Shanan.

After hiking up Longwang Mountain, soaking in a hot spring is just the perfect way to enjoy myself
A 3-hour journey, I've unlocked a trip that's both challenging and enjoyable, I really know how to have fun haha! About hiking Longwang Mountain:
Experienced hikers can choose the traditional Longwang Mountain route to camp overnight on the mountain, while those who prefer a lighter challenge can opt for the 5.61 km loop starting from the Tianmu Mountain Nature Reserve stele. Although it's not a long distance, there is a significant ascent to a maximum of 1420m, offering a wild charm and broad, beautiful scenery.
About Shan An Boutique Homestay SHANAN:
I actually discovered this hot spring homestay earlier this winter, shortly after it opened. The design was very thoughtful, and I've been wanting to find an opportunity to soak in the hot spring here after climbing the snowy Longwang Mountain. Although the snow season has passed, spending two days in this secluded spot in the mountains was still incredibly comfortable and pleasant. Soaking in a hot spring after hiking in the rain is just too enjoyable!
The homestay is not large, but every angle is photogenic, and the food and coffee are surprisingly good. I especially recommend the hot spring duplex suite; the sense of space is amazing. Looking out, you see mountains and bamboo forests, and the curved rammed-earth design creates a sense of infinite extension into nature. Play some music, accompanied by the swaying bamboo, and the moment you soak in the hot spring, your happiness is maxed out hehe. Although placing the hiking gear next to the hot spring is just for show, the joy of rushing into the hot spring pool each time I return to the room doesn't need to be staged haha!
