Homestays in Anhui, China

I have stayed in this inn three or four times. I chose it without hesitation this time. The environment is very good and the location is also very good. It is very convenient to walk around the old street. It is also very quiet. I brought my children here this time and they were able to rest well at night. Because there are only me and my child, I booked the smallest room. The waterproofing of the bathroom is not good. The toilet and shower are together. It is not convenient to take a shower. The toilet bowl gets wet when taking a shower. Also, the latest check-out time for booking on Ctrip is 2 o'clock. Because I brought my child with me, I asked the owner and he said that the latest check-out time is 1 o'clock...

The room far exceeded my expectations. At this price, especially during a holiday, it offers incredibly good value for money. Before checking in, I asked the owner for Huangshan travel routes, and they were incredibly patient and enthusiastic in explaining them, even offering pick-up and drop-off services. Upon arrival, I noticed the lively and neatly kept flowers and plants by the entrance, which immediately showed me how much care the owner puts into the guesthouse. The room was spacious and very clean. The individual small bottles of shampoo and shower gel felt more like a hotel's offering than a guesthouse's, a truly thoughtful touch. The mountain views were also stunning. You could easily spend a whole day just relaxing in the room and enjoying the scenery. The natural environment is excellent; we even had the good fortune to spot a protected animal ✌️ (the large white bird in photo 5). Breakfast was homemade by the owner. I woke up quite early and, finding the owner not yet in the dining area, simply went to the kitchen and helped myself. The kitchen was spotless 👍. The homemade breakfast was delicious. Suggestion: The bathtub felt a little wobbly. Reinforcing it would make the stay absolutely perfect!

Super location and very nice staff. We ordered an airport pickup to the hotel with the trip app and our driver contacted the hotel to let them know when we arrived so that a staff member could pick us up by the road. Super cozy streets around the hotel. My room was very spacious and clean. The breakfast was very good, noodles and dumplings. On our second day we asked the staff to recommend a driver to take us to different hot spots and we got a very nice driver at an affordable price. Will definitely stay here again.

Thinking of finding a quiet place to rest for two days after climbing Huangshan Mountain, I looked at the location and chose this B&B. I like the scenery of the hotel very much. It is located in the valley. The room has a large balcony and a view. Every day, I listen to the bamboo forest and the gurgling stream. It is really relaxing. The hotel's dried bamboo shoots noodles are delicious, and the fruits are also very sweet. My wife loves to eat that Babagan. Because the hotel is temporarily out of stock, the boss went home to find it and sent it over. The hot spring has a very good viewing angle. You can overlook the main peaks of Huangshan Mountain and watch the clouds roll and unfold. The Jiulong Waterfall Emerald Valley around the hotel is also a good place to go. The boss is very enthusiastic and arranges pick-up at any time, which makes travel much more convenient. The hotel housekeeper is also very good. You can ask for anything at any time. My wife is very satisfied with this accommodation arrangement. We are already thinking about the arrangement for the next visit. It is highly recommended.

The biggest surprise of this trip to Huangshan was not the scenery, but staying in this B&B! The proprietress was as warm as the sun in winter. She came to help with the luggage as soon as we arrived. She checked us in quickly and considerately. She chatted with us like old friends we had known for years. She also gave us a super practical guide to traveling in Huangshan, which helped us avoid pitfalls and save time. What’s even more amazing is her cooking skills! Every dish is a work of art on the tip of your tongue. Huangshan’s specialty, the stinky mandarin fish, has a peculiar smell but tastes fresh and mellow, and the fish meat is incredibly tender and smooth; the local chicken soup is so delicious that it makes your eyebrows fall off, and it is full of the taste of home. The room is clean and tidy, with complete facilities, and the beautiful view of Huangshan Mountain is outside the window. Here, you can enjoy the warmth of home and experience an extraordinary travel experience. Next time I come to Huangshan, I will stay here again!

This charming guesthouse is nestled at the foot of Huangshan Mountain, conveniently located just a 10-minute walk from the shuttle bus pick-up point. We booked two rooms, and the owner was incredibly hospitable. Noticing we had children, they kindly upgraded one of our rooms to a family room free of charge. The guesthouse provides complimentary trekking poles (a real lifesaver for my legs!), and there's an on-site restaurant on the ground floor. After dinner, we enjoyed strolling by the stream just downstairs, where we saw people fishing.

This is a beautiful hotel located in a quiet area beside the Jade Valley. There is a small convenience store in front, not many eateries around but as we had all our meals in the hotel it wasn’t a problem. There is only the sound of birds chirping and running river, none of the incessant honking and noisy traffic in Tangkou. The meals prepared by the owners are very delicious, make sure you book ahead if you want to have lunch or dinner there. The breakfast included in the room was also a generous spread, so much so we could takeaway leftovers to eat on our Huangshan climb. The room is spotlessly clean and very comfortable, and the proprietress kindly gave us a larger room that was available on the second floor, saving my mum from climbing to the third floor. Do note that laundry is not self service here. We were surprised that the lady boss had to wash and help us to hang it out to dry before collecting it again in the evening for us, and also felt bad for troubling her as she is already handling everything else in the hotel. She also kindly arranged for a driver to pick us up and send us to the train station. And helped to send us to the bus terminal to Huangshan. Just remember to hop off at the 逍遥溪 stop on the way back as it’s nearer for them to pick up from there. Thank you for the lovely stay and wishing you much success in future.

The room was clean, the facilities were new, and it was quite warm and comfortable overall. I like that the lady boss was very positive and friendly, and took the initiative to provide umbrellas, coffee, and ask about the well-being of the guests, giving them a warm feeling. The only thing I can find fault with is that it will be affected by the entry and exit of other rooms. Other people's entry and exit will be transmitted to the room. For example, the neighboring room checked out early in the morning, and I was also woken up. I hope to have psychological trauma🤭

It's rare for B&Bs to have underground parking, but this one does, complete with an elevator directly to the ground floor lobby for check-in – a real hotel-like convenience. This also means your car stays cool, even on scorching summer days. The B&B itself is spotless, and all common areas are comfortably air-conditioned. The staff, from the front desk and the proprietress to the restaurant servers, were incredibly warm and helpful. They even thoughtfully brought out mosquito repellent when they saw us sitting outside – a very nice touch. The laundry room is accessible until 9 PM, and they even offer a fantastic service where staff will wash, dry, fold, and deliver your clothes back to your room. Truly exceptional service! They provide an electric shuttle service to Xixinan; you just need to call 5 minutes before you want to be picked up. The scenic area isn't large but wonderfully uncommercialized, filled with charming local shops. The fish lantern display at night was vibrant and festive, just like celebrating Chinese New Year! The locals were so warm and down-to-earth, even spontaneously lighting off fireworks. Right outside the B&B, there's a small stream where you can fish. In the evenings, they even have a live singer – apparently, it's the only B&B in the area with live music! The ambiance was absolutely fantastic. Breakfast is served in a 'Jiugongge' (nine-grid platter) style, which was more than enough. The baozi (steamed buns) and wontons were freshly made, and you could always ask for more staple foods if you needed. To top it all off, they even gave us a thoughtful souvenir when we checked out. So considerate!

I wholeheartedly recommend this hotel! The staff and especially the hotel manager 蒋丹书 went above my expectations! A lot of unexpected stuff happened just before coming to Huangshan and Jiang DanShu was not only comprehensive but also very helpful. I also had to replan my trip in Huangshan and he patiently answered to all of my questions (and there were a lot) even though I arrived late at night. Finally, I was a solo traveller without a car but he helped me to arrange inexpensive lifts to go to the places I wanted to go to and I am so grateful for that. As for the hotel, it was perfect: great location, my room was cozy, comfortable and clean. It was high tech and I found funny to see what temperature I was taking my shower at. I felt as if I was at home with friends. The staff will help to plan the hike to Huangshan according to physical health, preferences, etc. I was also given free maps, a free walking stick, a free raincoat and free lifts to the bus stations. Breakfast is available if needed for a small fee.
