The Bamboo Holiday Reviews

The location is great, very convenient for getting around. Breakfast was exceptionally rich, and I didn't even get a picture of the big bowl of dumplings. Before we left, the owner even prepared a cup of coffee for everyone.

Service: The service was excellent. The owner even provided free rides to the scenic spot entrance, and laundry service was available – very thoughtful and considerate. Environment: The design is incredibly thoughtful. Every detail, from the light fixtures, sofas, and cushions to the tables and chairs, has been meticulously selected. It boasts a very trendy, 'Instagrammable' style with a chic black, white, and gray color palette, creating a truly tasteful ambiance. Restaurant: The food at the restaurant was incredibly delicious. The chicken is prepared fresh upon order, and the fish was exceptionally tender. I highly recommend trying their 'Digouji' (Local Pot Chicken Stew) and 'Chou Guiyu' (Stinky Mandarin Fish).

The large swimming pool located on the hill behind the guesthouse was quite stunning, even though we didn't get a chance to use it. A huge thanks to the owner for helping us plan our Huangshan hiking route – it was absolutely fantastic and surprisingly manageable! The owner even personally drove us right to the entrance of the Huangshan Scenic Area. Later, when my husband encountered a software issue with his Huawei phone, the owner again personally took him to a Huawei store to get it sorted. They truly deserve a massive thumbs-up for their incredible service! 👍 The owner is also a big animal lover; he's adopted a three-legged cat that had a broken leg. 🐱

Huangshan Zhuyu Guesthouse was truly the 'hidden gem' of my Huangshan trip! Choosing to stay in Tangkou Town was a stroke of genius – it's so close to the shuttle bus station for the scenic area, meaning we didn't have to rush to start our hike early, and even with all our gear, getting around was easy. What truly blew me away was the service. The staff's expertise was astounding, surpassing even seasoned travelers who've spent a decade planning trips. The front desk staff not only helped with booking tickets but even gave us crucial tips like 'secure tickets three days in advance' and 'which time slots have fewer crowds.' They even hand-drew a map of the shuttle transfer routes! I had meticulously prepared a thick stack of travel plans, but after they reviewed them, they helped me refine my itinerary. They specifically advised me that 'to visit Tiandu Peak that day, I absolutely had to catch the first morning shuttle.' This single tip ensured I didn't miss out on my much-anticipated Tiandu Peak – many people who arrived a little later that day couldn't make it up, and I was incredibly grateful. The guesthouse also features a swimming pool and its own restaurant. Staying here isn't just about finding a place to rest; it felt like having a team of personal local guides. I'll definitely stay here again on my next trip to Huangshan!

The guesthouse is very tastefully designed, with a refined and unique style that clearly shows a lot of thought went into it. The host was incredibly attentive; they dropped us off at the mountain shuttle bus pick-up point, lent us hiking poles, and gave us a map, explaining the routes and timings in detail. Their hospitality truly made our Huangshan trip memorable. I'd happily recommend it to friends and family.

The pool is quite large, but the path leading to it has quite a few steps. However, the view from the top is really nice. The guesthouse itself is very clean, and breakfast portions are given according to the number of guests, offering basic selections.

I particularly wanted to commend the owner's family and all the staff – everyone was incredibly warm and helpful. The owners even rescue stray cats, which was lovely to see! The accommodation itself was excellent. They boast a mountain spring-fed swimming pool at the mountaintop, and along the paths, you'll find charming fish ponds and pet ducks. They also provide complimentary hiking poles. The food was absolutely delicious; we enjoyed meals there both on our way up and down the mountain. I highly recommend the Stone Ear Mushroom Stew with Local Chicken (so fragrant!), the Huangshan Ganoderma Lucidum dish (wonderfully crispy), the Braised Pork with Bamboo Shoots (a bit rich but utterly delicious), and the original-flavored Huangshan Shortbread. To top it all off, the hostess makes her own wine, and they offer wild kiwis, mulberries, and other local treats – truly a delightful surprise! Oh, and we also had the chance to sample some tea; the Maofeng tea was of excellent quality, which was an added bonus!

I can't praise this guesthouse enough! It truly exceeded our expectations, especially for our first visit to Huangshan, making us feel such genuine warmth and hospitality. First and foremost, the environment is exceptionally well-maintained and spotlessly clean; you can literally see it from the moment you step through the entrance. Secondly, the service deserves five stars. The location is very easy to find, and the owner and their entire family are incredibly friendly and approachable. I had accidentally booked the wrong room type, but the owner was super accommodating, upgrading our room immediately without a second thought, saving us the hassle of finding a new place at the last minute. What's more, it's very close to the scenic area. The owner provided detailed guidance on how to ascend and descend the mountain, even offering walking sticks and raincoats. They also provided shuttle service to the scenic area entrance, which was incredibly thoughtful! Thirdly, the guesthouse's unique design truly showcases the owners' excellent taste. It features dedicated areas for relaxation, tea, dining, and even a small fitness zone. You can kickstart your morning with an invigorating coffee, and after a day of exploring Huangshan, you can order a delicious meal upon your return. The Huizhou cuisine is exceptional – it tastes like comforting home cooking, isn't greasy, and perfectly suited our family. Our child absolutely loved the guesthouse's own swimming pool, which offered great views and was perfect for unwinding after a long day of hiking. Fourthly, the guest rooms are elegantly furnished, peaceful, and relaxing. They are tastefully minimalist and spotless, providing a calming retreat and slowing down the pace of our travels. Finally, I must reiterate: fantastic hosts, beautiful rooms, and outstanding service – we truly felt at home. This stay was absolutely worth every penny! Highly recommended!

Choosing this place for our family trip with the kids was absolutely the right decision! The owner was incredibly welcoming the moment we arrived, helping us with our luggage and proactively asking about our needs. The room we originally booked was a bit small, but seeing that we had a child and it might be inconvenient, the owner directly upgraded us to a larger room for free. The space instantly became much more spacious – such an incredibly thoughtful gesture! I have to give a special shout-out to the shower: not only was the water temperature stable, but the water pressure was also wonderfully comfortable. After a tiring day of exploring, a shower instantly relieved all the stress and left us feeling completely relaxed. Breakfast the next day was an even bigger surprise; the variety was incredibly extensive. There was congee, steamed buns, various side dishes, fresh fruit, and hot drinks. Both adults and kids could find something they loved, and starting our day full and satisfied made our journey even more energetic. Overall, the experience was fantastic. The owner's attentive service made us feel incredibly cared for. We'll definitely choose this place again next time!

The rooms are incredibly stylish, and the service is top-notch! Most importantly, the cleanliness was impeccable! It's conveniently located right near the South Gate transfer station. We transferred here after climbing Huangshan, and the hotel's pool was perfect for relaxing. The hotel was so peaceful, making it easy to fall asleep and get a much-needed restful night's sleep! What's more, it has a sunroom where I could wash and sun-dry all the clothes I hadn't laundered for days – all at once! The overall stay experience was absolutely amazing! This will definitely be my top choice again if I get the chance!

The pool is located up in the mountains and it's beautiful and very clean. It's fed by mountain spring water, and my kids absolutely loved it and didn't want to leave! The water was a bit cool, but the owner was very helpful and adjusted it for us.

The room was clean and tidy, definitely one of the best homestays I've stayed in, and the service was very attentive!

I really loved the design style of this B&B; you can tell the owner put a lot of thought into decorating it. The room was clean and tidy, and the bedding was comfortable. The pool is halfway up the mountain, with clean water and pleasant, relaxing views, plus there are tent rooms. The kids had a fantastic time. The breakfast was very rich and varied, and the staff were warm and welcoming.

The room was clean, tidy, and well-designed, and the location was very convenient. The owner was enthusiastic and gave us great tips for visiting Huangshan. In the morning, they even provided free shuttle service to the Huangshan bus stop. The food at the guesthouse was delicious, especially the local Anhui cuisine.
