Independent - accommodation in Xiangxi

Excellent hotel, I highly recommend it without hesitation The location is unbeatable: it’s in a very quiet area, right next to a beautiful bridge that gives it a special charm, and on the riverbank. This makes it super convenient for grabbing a taxi or getting around quickly, whether on foot or by transport. The staff’s service is warm and welcoming from the very first moment; they really make you feel at home. The room is simply gorgeous: spacious, bright, very well-equipped (fridge, kettle, safe, good Wi-Fi, quiet air conditioning) and decorated with great taste and elegant details. The value for money is excellent; it’s honestly hard to beat in that area. The only small downside (and this is purely personal) is that I missed a more Western-style breakfast. I would return without a second thought. Totally recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐✨
(I give it 4.5/5 — the half point I deduct is just because of the breakfast I personally miss).

Very nice hotel! Very well located, and the people that run it are very nice. Always attentive of if I need anything. Even gave me a map with a circuit to do to see everything, and suggestions

Large modern room with comfortable bed and separate bathtub & shower. Quiet location. Staff do not speak English, which is typical even for Western branded hotels in China. My room smelled a bit like sulfur, strongest near the toilet, but common areas did not. Air conditioner did not work. When reported to front desk, the complaint was met with a shrug. A bit of a walk from the historic area, but a gated walkway serves as a shortcut.
