💬 What guests say ★ 4.0 · 15 reviews
The room was clean and tidy overall, the bed was comfortable, and I slept well. The space was quite spacious with natural lighting, and the atmosphere was quiet—good for resting. However, the bathroom was a bit basic, and there wasn't enough storage space, which made daily use slightly inconvenient.
Dayu Hotel, this price is such a steal. I'd better stock up on a few vouchers—they're refundable anytime anyway.
There's also a lounge area where you can enjoy coffee, and parking is super convenient and completely free. The service is quite attentive, making for a comfortable and worry-free stay.

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 →
