North of the train station square, there's a Chinese buffet breakfast from 7 to 9 AM. The place is quite large, divided into several areas. Shuizhu Yuan is a waterfront restaurant, and Yushan Yuan is 120 square meters, decorated like a palace, seating over a thousand people.
The room was clean and tidy, and the staff were warm and attentive. Check-in at the front desk was very quick. Because the air conditioner was loud, they proactively switched my room. I especially want to thank the lady on the floor service team—she was incredibly patient, taking me room by room to find the one I…
The round table and chairs are neatly arranged, and the overall space feels fairly open with natural lighting. It's clean and tidy, and quite comfortable to sit in. However, the spacing between the tables and chairs is a bit tight, so it might feel cramped when dining with a larger group.

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 →
