Changsha April 3 Mountain View Terrace Homestay (Yuelushan Hunan University)
The room was immaculately clean—every corner felt fresh and well-maintained. The owner has great taste: the wooden details in the courtyard, vibrant bougainvillea blooming everywhere, and thoughtfully arranged potted plants created such a cozy, serene vibe. Loved the welcome fruit too—small touches that made the stay feel special. Location is fantastic—just a 10-minute walk to Hunan University, and right in the heart of a foodie’s paradise with endless street eats nearby. The metro station is super close, making it easy to get anywhere around the city. What really stood out was the owner’s warm hospitality—offered a free room upgrade during weekdays!

I can’t recommend this place enough—definitely my go-to choice for next time in Changsha.
Conch Kechi River View Pool Hotel (Changsha Wuyi Square Poly International Branch)
This hotel deserves a top rating! Located right across from the 'Chaxue Nianshao' plaza, it's incredibly convenient for transportation and offers stunning views of the river. That said, keep in mind it's tucked inside a residential complex by Poly, so the vibe leans more toward a high-end boutique stay than a traditional hotel—quieter and more private, but slightly less flashy. We brought elderly family members along, and while they found the setting a bit different from what they're used to, the two-day soak in the pool was definitely worth it. The room came with a projector for watching cartoons—my kids were thrilled, and even the adults relaxed into the moment. Overall, this place feels ideal for couples seeking a romantic escape or families looking for a peaceful, kid-friendly getaway. If you value tranquility, great views, and a unique local feel, this is a hidden gem worth revisiting.

Changsha Mandu · CITYPARKHOTEL
Staying at Changsha Mandu · CITYPARKHOTEL was an absolute delight! We booked a room on the fifth floor, but the manager kindly upgraded us to a second-floor room since there’s no elevator—much easier for carrying luggage. It was around midnight when we arrived, and the manager even stayed behind to help with our bags. My friend had ordered pizza, and they warmed it up in the microwave for us—such a thoughtful touch. They also recommended several great local restaurants nearby. The twin room was surprisingly spacious, with a large table perfect for eating takeout. When I called to request extra toiletries, they delivered them within minutes. Plus, they provided disposable bed sheets for female guests during sensitive times—truly considerate. From start to finish, the service was exceptional, and the value is unbeatable. If you're visiting Changsha, don’t miss this gem. I’ll definitely be back!

The space is compact but well-maintained, with clean linens, functional furnishings, and everything you’d need for a comfortable stay. What stood out most was the peaceful vibe despite being in such a unique location. It’s surprisingly quiet and private, yet still convenient for exploring nearby areas.

Suiju Guanying Apartment (Changsha Huangtuling Metro Station)
To be honest, the place didn't live up to expectations. The overall environment felt a bit run-down, and cleanliness was only average—definitely not what I'd expect for the price. What surprised me most was that towels were charged at 10 RMB each—really unexpected and frustrating. I thought it was a two-bedroom layout, but in reality, it's just one large open area with a bed, plus a small loft with another bed. The loft itself has no extra space—it’s literally just a bed. The total room size is extremely cramped; there’s barely enough room to move around. Honestly, I’d rather stay in a regular hotel where I can at least sleep comfortably without worrying about hygiene or space. This place feels more like a temporary stop than a real home. Not worth it for the price, especially if you value comfort and basic quality.

The hotel sits right next to Hunan University's Tianma Student Apartments, and across the street there’s a lively neighborhood full of authentic local Xiang cuisine restaurants and the biggest night market in the university area—perfect for dinner and evening strolls. I visited during Chinese New Year, and the front desk staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. They noticed we were planning our itinerary and immediately offered to assist with recommendations—such a nice touch! The room was spotless, quiet, and well-maintained, with good soundproofing, making it ideal for a restful night’s sleep.
