Ru Ye Inn
We brought the kids to explore West Lake and were looking for a comfortable, stress-free place to stay—and we absolutely hit the jackpot! This hidden gem of a mountain retreat nestled right in the heart of the scenic area is everything we hoped for. Located on Hupao Road near Siyanjing, it’s surrounded by lush forest and overlooks a serene tea field. The location is perfect—quiet and peaceful yet just steps away from attractions like Hupao Park and Hangzhou Zoo. A short drive gets you to Leifeng Pagoda and Su Causeway, making it easy to enjoy both nature and city life. The rooms are spacious and thoughtfully designed with no sharp corners—plus, underfloor heating and central AC keep things cozy year-round. Our little one was fascinated by the smart toilet (and totally safe too!). There’s a private courtyard where the kids could run around freely, and nearby children’s playgrounds kept them entertained for hours. For those driving, the huge free parking lot is a real game-changer—especially in such a popular area. Just outside the door, there’s a bus stop that connects you to all major sights. If you’re visiting during peak season, follow the owner’s simple transfer tips—they really help avoid traffic jams. Waking up surrounded by greenery and enjoying a beautifully presented breakfast sets the tone for a perfect day. The on-site restaurant serves authentic Hangzhou-style cuisine that truly hits the spot. In the evening, sipping tea at the open-air dining area while watching the stars and listening to the gentle rustle of trees—it’s pure relaxation. After a long day, this place truly restores your spirit.

This stay at the tea mountain B&B was an absolute reset from city life.

The interior design blends natural wood and bamboo craftsmanship with soft warm lighting, creating a cozy yet earthy vibe. Every window frames a stunning view of the tea-covered slopes, making it easy to feel connected to nature. The service truly stood out—upon check-in, the host handed me a steaming cup of freshly brewed tea and gave a thoughtful overview of nearby hiking trails and local highlights. When they learned I was interested in tea-making, they arranged a personalized session with a local tea master, walking me through every step from harvesting to pan-firing—so immersive and memorable. Breakfast each morning was made with locally sourced ingredients, wholesome and delicious, while evening tea snacks were perfectly crafted to complement the serene setting. The owner is not only incredibly kind but also has a graceful presence that adds to the charm. It’s rare to find such warmth and attention to detail in a stay.

Yushu Inn Hangzhou
I booked the Jiujia room, but the host noticed I’m quite tall and worried the low ceiling might feel cramped, so they upgraded me to the Liuyu room for free—such a thoughtful gesture! Truly appreciated. The inn’s location is unbeatable: right next to a serene tea garden. At night, the only sounds are frogs croaking and birds chirping—perfect for reconnecting with nature. Walk to the right along the Lijilong Mountain trail and you’ll reach Longjing Village in no time.

Sunday Sunny Resort
This was hands down the best booking of our trip—booked early before prices went up, and the value for money was outstanding. Nestled on San Tai Mountain, the hotel offers a peaceful retreat with fresh air and stunning natural surroundings. The nearest bus stop is at Yu Qian Temple, but we actually preferred walking to Wugui Tan to try the rowboat ride—unfortunately, it was canceled due to weather, but we made up for it by taking a scenic water bus from Guo Zhuang Pier to Hua Gang Guan Yu. The views along the way were absolutely beautiful. After exploring Hua Gang Guan Yu, we returned via the Xiao Lian Qing Feng line from Su Di Pier, which dropped us right at Yu Qian Temple Station—perfect for heading back to the hotel. One small downside: limited food delivery options nearby, but overall, the experience was flawless. This place truly delivers comfort, convenience, and charm.
