Homestays in Guangdong, China

As it's located within the ancient town and on a lower floor, we did encounter some mosquitoes. Otherwise, everything was excellent. The location is fantastic; Kaiyuan Temple, Paifang Street, Guangji Tower, Guangji Bridge, and other attractions are all within easy walking distance. The service was also commendable; the front desk staff were very responsive and helpful with any requests. The price was very affordable, offering excellent value for money.

The hotel rooms were fantastic – impeccably clean and tidy. Our lake-view king bed was exceptionally comfortable, and we really appreciated the dedicated tea-making area, which beautifully integrated local culture into our stay. The hotel's location, right outside the ancient city, was ideal. We also loved the complimentary Luo Han Guo and chrysanthemum tea offered daily at the front desk; it was a thoughtful, health-conscious touch that truly enhanced the slow-paced, relaxing atmosphere. The service was excellent. We'll definitely be back!

Great location near Zhumumen Gate (drop off / pickup if you're taking Didi from the train station), and less than 10min walk to Guangji Bridge and the food streets. Room was quaint and comfy, good ventilation and air conditioning. Bathroom a bit tiny, but clean and really appreciate that there's a door separating the shower and toilet. Bonus points for the cute chonky cat in the lobby~

It eschews straight architectural lines, instead adopting wave-like undulating curves to create a unique aesthetic. The overall space is dominated by a simple white palette, giving it an elegant and rustic natural feel. The guesthouse's overall decor is Wabi-sabi style, using layers of natural materials such as fabrics, rattan, wood, and micro-cement to create a tranquil atmosphere where wabi-sabi meets rustic charm. **Room Experience: Every Room is a Seascape** The guesthouse has 18 guest rooms, each facing a magnificent sea view, and each featuring expansive floor-to-ceiling windows.

Xiao yu was very helpful, he helped carry our luggages to the room and explain everything in the room. Not only that for our checkout he makes everything very smoothly by letting him know we want to check out and help to carry all our luggages to the reception by himself👍🏻 and he even bring us to the hotel restaurant as we couldn’t find it. Very good service and we would be back to stay again. Thank you to Xiao yu and team for making our stay pleasant ✨

The hotel is generally very good. We booked three suites. This one is on the first floor and is a bit dingy... The rooms upstairs are not. The hardware decoration is great and you can enjoy the hot springs. The location is very good, and it is convenient to enter Paifang Street and eat, drink and shop.

The location is excellent. It's right at the entrance to the ancient town. I like the environment very much. It's quiet in the bustling city and very convenient to go anywhere. It's recommended for two families to travel. There is a living room for tea and chat.

Multiple choices of rooms and budgets. LOFT style was fairly room size, 2 air-conditioned units, so there won't be any issues during hot summer. The water dispenser is available on site. Friendly and warm operators would chat and recommend visitors. OOTD 👍 . Location in between the ancient city streets and the main streets public transportation and non touristy restaurants requires foot power, do recommends rent a e-bike from retail shop as ******* ebike zonal restrictions in effect. The toilet area needs some work as water pooling due to the gradient floor, not towards the gutter. Safe area to travel even walking in middle of night.

A family of four (two adults, two children) had a truly delightful and memorable trip here. We'll definitely be back! Before making our booking, I made a point of looking through the negative reviews. One mentioned service not being up to par, another complained about distant parking – and honestly, that just put my mind at ease! 😂 We stayed for a total of five days. I absolutely despise the rushed, checklist-style 'hit-and-run' tours, so a leisurely pace was our top priority. We woke up naturally each day, and the host was incredibly thoughtful. Aside from some helpful WeChat messages and gentle reminders, we experienced absolutely no disturbances. We didn't bother with detailed planning ourselves. Although we drove to the location, once we'd parked, we were quite content not to move the car again. We opted for the host's recommendation of a local driver-guide to take us around. This meant we avoided any unnecessary detours, didn't have to worry about the hassle of parking at attractions, and could even happily enjoy a couple of drinks! In short: If you have an interest in history and appreciate the authentic charm and atmosphere of a traditional old residence, choosing this place will absolutely not disappoint.

This hotel is hands down my favorite in the city. From the moment we stepped in, the service was outstanding. The front desk staff were incredibly friendly and efficient, making our check-in process smooth and quick. The room itself was warm, comfortable, and beautifully arranged, truly feeling like a home away from home.
