Tonglu Hotels with Bars

Escape the hustle and bustle of the city and find a secluded haven amidst the green mountains of Tonglu: Nanshan Yijing. The gentle, minimalist space, with its log cabins and wabi-sabi aesthetic, is bathed in sunlight streaming through the glass swimming pool overhead. Looking down, you can see the water rippling, and the play of light and shadow gently dances within the room—a uniquely romantic touch. Opening the floor-to-ceiling windows reveals a tranquil mountain landscape: rolling green hills, rice paddies, and ancient trees. Sipping a drink by the window, watching the artificial rain curtain fall softly, the sound of rain mingling with the verdant scenery, instantly soothes all anxieties. This place offers more than just beautiful scenery; it boasts a wealth of recreational facilities: an indoor pool table, retro arcade games, and a children's building block area—a dedicated play area for kids and a relaxing space for adults; a private hot spring courtyard and an outdoor lawn with a canopy—perfect for picnics and enjoying the breeze during the day, or soaking in the private hot spring in the evening while listening to the gentle breeze. The rooms feature floor-to-ceiling windows with a projector, allowing you to enjoy the mountain scenery from your bed or snuggle up to watch a movie before sleep. The bathrooms are fully equipped with smart home features, ensuring maximum comfort. A hearty Chinese breakfast is also provided each morning. No need to rush; at Nanshan Yijing, slowing down is the true meaning of a vacation. During the day, enjoy free stream trekking and water activities nearby, and at night, drift off to sleep to the gentle breeze of the mountain forest. A top choice for weekend getaways for families or friends in the Yangtze River Delta region.

A bright window embedded in the yellow mud wall brings the green mountains caressed by the flowing clouds into view. Oh, isn't this lying in the Fuchun Mountain Residence? The architectural body and interior design of Liuyun Country Villa are impeccable, bright and simple but with everything you need, everything you need but just right. The yellow of the yellow mud is the basic color, the color of the earth, the color of the countryside, blending between the green plants and the shelter of the mountains, like the skin color of a beautiful woman showing her clothes. There is a row of narrow windows between the preserved warehouse wall and the wooden beam roof. Through it, you can see the stars at night and the shadows of the clouds reflected by the moon when you lie on the bed. And it is also the morning call to wake you up in the morning. The housekeeper is a self-deprecating boy who is a little fat. He is polite and enthusiastic, and is simply a warm man. He arranged everything very considerately for us who just arrived, and reminded us of things that we may not have noticed, which made us feel like spring breeze. Looking forward to coming again next time.

## Nestled in Tonglu's Painterly Landscape | A Short Account of Yisongshuling, Lucun Village As the outside world receded, the invigorating spirit of the landscape washed over me. Stepping inside, it was immediately clear that the hosts possess a true appreciation for life. It wasn't about ostentatious 'design,' but rather a subtle integration of modern elements into aged wood, pristine white walls, and warm lighting. The room was spacious, and smart home features silently anticipated every need, making it feel like living in a futuristic poem – a poem, nonetheless, that rhymed with the mountains and the moon. My absolute favorite was the window. Mornings brought mist hovering over the river like a delicate veil, while at night, stars seemed to tumble into the deep, inky mountains. Sitting quietly by the window, listening to the wind whisper through the bamboo and watching water birds glide over the emerald ripples, I suddenly understood why ancient scholars always sought to 'steal moments of leisure' – the sublime beauty of nature is, after all, the most priceless of gifts. The home-cooked meals prepared by Auntie carried the warmth of the earth itself. Bamboo shoots, freshly dug from the back mountain that very morning, and fish, caught straight from the river, were simply prepared. Yet, their exquisite freshness transported me back to my grandmother's kitchen in childhood. Each bite felt like a gentle blessing from the mountains and waters. The staff always greeted us with a smile, striking the perfect balance, like old friends. There was no need to ask; they had already quietly anticipated and prepared everything. And if solitude was desired, they would simply leave you with a tranquil, gentle quietude. Departing felt like waking from a beautiful dream. This wasn't merely accommodation; it was unequivocally a few days spent dwelling in a fairyland. I left imbued with its spiritual essence, and I swear I even 'stole' half a window's worth of its magnificent scenery. —Perhaps true luxury never needs to flaunt itself; it simply, gently restores you to being one with nature. ### Tips * **Room types:** Diverse options available; a mountain view room is highly recommended. * **Must-try dishes:** Auntie's local chicken hotpot and stir-fried wild bamboo shoots. My personal favorite was the freshly made dried vegetable and pork patty – incredibly fragrant! * **Activities:** Take a stroll along the ancient path beside the guesthouse, where you can walk alongside the Fuchun River, with distant mountains as your backdrop. * **Nearby attractions:** It's very close to the Mailing Ancient Path, definitely worth a hike. The establishment was incredibly thoughtful. They helped upgrade our room, and when they heard our friend had to rush for a train and would miss breakfast, they kindly packed some fruit for them to eat on the go. Auntie also kept everything impeccably clean. **”When paradise is here, why search elsewhere?”**

This is a treasure inn that I have been thinking about for a long time. After I settled in, it really lived up to my expectations (I immediately decided to stay longer 😂). The renovation of the 200-year-old house, whether it is the design style, decoration materials or the business philosophy of the owner, Sister Liang, is my favorite. Sister Liang's love for the old house is reflected everywhere in the inn. The layout, decoration, furnishings, books, bedding, furniture, and colors are all very thoughtful. Breakfast and dinner (dinner must be booked in advance), most of the ingredients are locally sourced, fresh and authentic, Sister Liang and Auntie's cooking skills are down-to-earth, which makes my sister and I have endless aftertaste! The table is exquisitely laid out, and it is comfortable to look at even if you don't eat. The owner, Sister Liang, is humorous and has the demeanor of a hero. Chatting with her is full of positive energy!

The decoration of the homestay is simple and elegant, the facilities are complete, and the surrounding scenery is also excellent. It is very comfortable to walk around in this season. The boss and his wife are very friendly and will tell us about the entertainment options in the surrounding area. All dishes are made to order. Just tell them what you want to eat in advance and they will buy it in town in advance. By the way, if you just want to play around the B&B, it is also very convenient. The owner has prepared a small boat for us, and it is very comfortable to sail in the small lake in front of the door. To sum up, it is highly recommended. It is a homestay that you are willing to come again after visiting.

The view from the room is superb, especially the balcony, facing the Fuchun River, with mountains, trees and roads in the distance. The boss is very considerate and will prepare fruits, snacks and tea when you go back (ps: the tea is better than outside), which makes you feel like you are home. There are few shops around, so it is not easy to order takeout at night, but it is convenient to have drinks downstairs. There are many people in the scenic area during the holidays, so it is also nice to stay downstairs in the homestay and chat with the boss.

The room was great, and the bathtub was a nice touch. The flowers outside the entrance were the prettiest on the whole street, making for a lovely spot to relax. The reception area had a big projector that played cartoons, which instantly quieted the kids down. Breakfast was delicious, and they even offered sweet or savory zongzi depending on whether guests were from the north or south, which was incredibly thoughtful! The owners were so welcoming and enthusiastic. They gave us excellent directions, offered great tips on where to go and what to see, and recommended fantastic places to eat. All their suggestions felt genuine and helpful, with no ulterior motives. Highly recommend!

Sincerity is the best killer move. This homestay is in the mountains of Tonglu. You can see a lot of bright stars at night. The guy has four dogs and four cats. You can feel that he is a very kind person. The guy will give us vegetables grown at home. The hot spring is also very good. The double hot pot is amazing. There are so many dishes that you can't finish them at all.

During the summer vacation, I took my children to the heartbeat paradise, because I had to take the dogs out together, and compared many homestays around, and finally chose this one for three days and two nights. The boss service is really good, and any problems are solved in a timely manner. The environment is very good in all aspects, and the most important thing is that I really love dogs. We are two big golden retrievers. We can walk freely at the hotel. We leave the dog to sleep in the room on the day of going out to play. The proprietress also said that we can help us put the dog down for a stroll. It is really a blessing for pets. By the way, the boss's cooking skills are good, the cooking is very delicious 😋 especially the chicken, it is self-raised, it tastes very fragrant 😋

This place is nice, but i would not consider it a hotel. It’s somewhere in between a B&B and a hotel. The rooms are pretty ok in size and come with balconies, the aircon is strong enough for the hot summer days. However, be prepared to be far from any food or drink delivery! It is really remote. It has a great view, although they tell you they have a hotspring it is man-made u could just order the room with a bathtub it will be similar, and not need to pay 500rmb for it.  The in-house food is not bad, I would recommend to order one day in advance. They also offer for 500rmb, barbecue services which i think is outrageous as it does not include food cost. The beds in the room are very very uncomfortable. If u have a bad back, just go for the international starred hotels. They have huge big insects coming in at night, do be careful not to let any of them in at night.
