The hotel has its own underground parking lot and a wedding banquet hall on the first floor. The hotel is soundproofed and had a good night's sleep in Yixing. The hotel has its own design and decoration style.
There are four-star quality but some small shortcomings, the bed is very comfortable, the bathroom is separated, and there is a separate bathtub. But there is no wardrobe, there are hanging hangers instead, and the room layout is still a bit compact.
The breakfast is a combination of Chinese and Western, the category is completely enough to eat, and the taste is good.
I don't know why the hotel corridor and room have a milk smell 😂 haha

The rooms were clean and comfortable, with many details catering to children's needs, making it a great place to bring kids. The hot springs were fantastic, with a first-class environment, comfortable temperature, and good privacy. During the weekdays, it was less crowded, giving it a private feel.

You can find plenty of food and eatery shops in the old city.

Arriving in Yixing, straight to the point: the first teapot! Yixing purple clay pottery uses local purple clay as its raw material, which is high in iron, highly malleable, and has a double-pore structure after firing, allowing for good breathability and retaining the color and aroma of tea. Its production process includes shaping the clay slabs and decorating with ceramic carving. Staying at the Vienna Hotel made it convenient to view the teapots and appreciate the tea.
A great experience, and the room rate was reasonable! [Thumbs up]

Guest UserWent to Yixing Poly Theater to watch a performance and booked a full season hotel. The room was clean and tidy, the front desk service was friendly, the transportation was convenient, and the theater was a few minutes away. The view of Dongyu Lake next to it was an unexpected surprise. The exhibition hall of Yixing Museum that displays the life of academicians made me feel the rich cultural heritage of the hometown of academicians that values culture and education.

A 5-star hotel in Dingdu Town, the hometown of purple clay pottery.
It takes about 400 yen and takes 15 minutes by DIDI from the high-speed rail station.
The spacious lobby has purple clay teapots displayed like a museum, and it takes an hour to see them all.
On the first floor of the hotel, there are four purple clay teapot specialty shops, so if you don't have time to go out to town, you can purchase quality products within the hotel.
The room is very spacious, with a large bathtub and plenty of hot water.
The shower booth can be switched between a hand shower and a rainfall shower.
The room is equipped with a purple clay stone teapot and tea tray tea set, as well as black and green tea leaves.
There is also a thick guidebook of purple clay teapot owners on the writing desk, which will soothe your boredom at night.
I entered the room just as the room was being cleaned, and the cleaning ladies were very kind to me, as I don't speak Chinese. I was really impressed.
The breakfast is not as good as a foreign 5-star hotel, but it has a sufficient variety and quantity.
It is a Chinese hotel, so the only flaw is that they do not provide chilled drinks or omelets.
It is not the hotel's fault, but there are few restaurants around the hotel where you can eat alone (for some reason there are many hotpot restaurants).
The nearest convenience store is less than 1 km away.
That is the only negative point.
I stayed in May during the China-United Nations holiday, so it was a little expensive, but normally this luxury hotel is around 7,000 yen, which is a bargain.
Of course, I would like to stay again next time.
From the window, you can see Huanglong Mountain, which reminds you of the mining of the past. This hotel is a dream hotel for purple clay teapot collectors.
If you are a purple clay teapot fan from Japan, you should definitely try staying at this hotel, you will definitely not regret it!
PS
This hotel has smoking rooms ヽ(^o^)丿

The room is clean and tidy, and the price is not high. There is a charging station downstairs, which makes charging very convenient. The front desk staff is also very enthusiastic and introduced many tourist attractions in the surrounding area. The parking lot is also free. In addition, the breakfast is also buffet style, with rich dishes and fresh ingredients. The flowers in the lobby are also very beautiful. Overall, it is a hotel with good value for money, highly recommended to everyone who comes for tourism or business trips!

Guest UserDecided to visit Yixing spontaneously while the weather was still pleasant. Stayed for two nights, and the front desk upgraded our room to a beautiful one with a wide-open lake view. The breakfast wasn't lavish, but it was enough to fill up. Wanda Plaza is right next door, and they even have a Cha Yan Yue Se (tea shop) with no lines! Yixing Museum is just a short walk across the street and was open even on a Monday. It's a bit far from the Bamboo Sea, but hey, Cha Yan Yue Se is right next door, and it's close to the high-speed rail station. Yixing is a great place to visit, with lots of tourist attractions like Pottery Factory No. 2, Gu Nan Street, and the grottoes. Plus, there's no traffic congestion, and the hotel was quite affordable. All in all, a good experience.
