💬 What guests say ★ 4.7 · 35 reviews
The environment is very nice, and the breakfast has a wide variety and is delicious. The room in the Lily Building is a bit small, but for a star-rated hotel standard, it's acceptable. The subway is right outside the door, very convenient. It takes about 45 minutes by subway: take Line 1, transfer to Line 2, get off…
Beautiful environment, the villa is fairly well equipped, suitable for gatherings of multiple families.
Nearby, you can visit Mudu Ancient Town, Tianping Mountain, and Lingyan Mountain. There's a huge lawn garden, great for walks and photos with my mom. The European-style architecture has a lovely feel, like staying in a European manor.

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 →
