💬 What guests say ★ 4.6 · 29 reviews
The room had a wide open view and great natural light, making for a very comfortable stay. The bed was soft and I slept soundly. The bathtub area had a nice ambiance and looked great in photos. The room was fully equipped with a mini fridge, convenient for storing drinks. The staff were friendly. They gave us snacks…
The hotel's exterior has a modern design, with beige walls and glass curtain walls reflecting bright light. The golden hotel name stands out prominently and is very eye-catching.
I especially want to mention the hotel shower. As soon as you turn on the showerhead, music starts playing—very soothing and quite pleasant. The faucet switch is the music switch, which is great. In the fourth photo, there's a music switch; if you don't want to listen, you can also turn it off manually.

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 →
