It's just a few minutes' walk from Sanyuanli subway station, so the location is quite convenient. The room has floor-to-ceiling windows, and the morning sunlight coming in was very pleasant—I woke up in a good mood. Next to the hotel lobby there's an old-style dessert shop; the mango pomelo sago I ordered was very…
Located in a bustling commercial district, next to three major clothing and leather goods markets, with a subway station right outside the door and very convenient transportation to the provincial bus station.
The hotel has a good location, and the rooms are large and spacious, making it suitable for business trips. The price is fairly reasonable. Although the lobby decor is a bit old, overall it is still quite good.

Good to know
Does this hotel accept foreign guests?
Star-rated hotels — especially chains and anything four-star and above — almost always register foreign passports as routine. Smaller local hotels sometimes lack the foreign-guest license. Since 2024 hotels officially may not refuse foreign guests: if refused, call or SMS 12345. Book refundable when unsure.
How do I get there?
Show the big Chinese name above to any taxi or DiDi driver, or tap Find in Amap for turn-by-turn navigation. The Chinese name is what drivers read — English names are rarely recognized.
What does the star rating mean?
China's official hotel star rating is assessed by tourism authorities (GB/T 14308 standard): ★★★ = comfortable and reliable, ★★★★ = high-end with full services, ★★★★★ = luxury. It certifies quality, not foreign-guest policy — that's why we flag it separately.
How do I pay there?
Set up Alipay or WeChat Pay with your foreign Visa/Mastercard before you fly — QR payments work at virtually every hotel. Foreign credit cards are accepted at the front desk of most star-rated hotels. Full payments guide →
