Hangzhou Hua Jia Shan Resort

We were incredibly lucky during the New Year holiday when the hotel upgraded our room at no extra cost—what a wonderful surprise! The accommodation was cozy and comfortable, even though the balcony felt a bit chilly. However, the view and overall atmosphere made it well worth it. The resort’s architecture is truly unique—each balcony feels like it’s nestled in a loft with a striking sloped design. Surrounded by serene mountain scenery, the property beautifully blends traditional elements: pavilions, bridges, and flowing waterways create a peaceful, almost dreamlike setting. We enjoyed both breakfast and dinner on-site, and every meal was satisfying and delicious. It’s rare to find such charm, tranquility, and excellent service all in one place. A perfect getaway that exceeded all expectations.

Sisan Resort-Hupao 1934 Hotel

The autumn in Jiangnan truly shines at Sisan Resort. From the moment I stepped in, I was wrapped in a serene and refined atmosphere—every corner of the hotel exudes character, with minimal crowds and an effortlessly calm vibe that’s perfect for a true staycation. The bathroom scent was subtle yet delightful, instantly setting a relaxing tone. The mini-bar was stocked with an impressive variety of snacks and drinks—perfect for late-night cravings or morning refreshments. But honestly, the highlight was the breakfast at Yueya Restaurant. It’s hands down the best hotel breakfast I’ve ever had—endless options, beautifully presented, and each dish tasted thoughtfully crafted. I could’ve stayed there just for the food alone. The entire experience was flawless, and I couldn’t stop taking photos. Pure bliss. Definitely coming back.

YAGU Resort Hangzhou

I’ve always dreamed of experiencing the quiet elegance and poetic charm of West Lake, and staying at YAGU Resort Hangzhou truly exceeded my expectations. Nestled right by the lake, every view from the windows feels like a painting—morning mist drifting across the water, golden sunsets glowing over Leifeng Pagoda. The resort is surrounded by lush greenery and gentle trickling streams, creating a serene escape from city life. From check-in to checkout, the staff were warm, attentive, and genuinely helpful. Special shoutout to Mr. He at reception—he went above and beyond, personally escorting me to my room while sharing fascinating insights about the property and nearby attractions. When a small issue came up during my stay, he handled it quickly and thoughtfully. Breakfast was a highlight: a well-curated mix of Chinese and Western options, with standout dishes like freshly made lotus root paste and Dingsheng cake—delicate, sweet, and perfect with a cup of Longjing tea to start the day. The on-site restaurant serves exquisite Jiangnan fusion cuisine. The signature fish head dish is a masterpiece—blending classic Hangzhou flavors with modern techniques, where the aroma of fresh fragrant bamboo shoots dances with the savory depth of ham. I also enjoyed afternoon tea at the lounge, set in a beautifully designed space with panoramic views. The rooms are a thoughtful blend of traditional Chinese garden aesthetics and smart technology. The wooden furnishings, soft lighting, and top-quality bedding (rumored to be from the renowned Kingsdown brand) made for an incredibly restful night’s sleep. Complimentary mini-bar, cozy reading nooks, and a tranquil tea lounge add to the peaceful vibe. I indulged in a spa treatment—the therapist was gentle and skilled, leaving me completely relaxed. Just steps away, the fitness center and indoor pool are spotless and well-equipped, ideal for staying active during a trip. What really sets this place apart is its incredible value. For a luxury experience this refined, the price point feels refreshingly accessible. Whether you're traveling as a couple, with family, or on business, there's something here for everyone. And bonus? The included 3 free professional photoshoots—stunning shots against the resort’s picturesque backdrop, expertly captured by a talented photographer. I can’t recommend this place enough to anyone seeking beauty, comfort, and soulful hospitality. I’ll definitely be back the next time I visit Hangzhou.

Zhejiang Hotel

I always stay here when visiting Hangzhou, and it never disappoints. The location is excellent—just a short walk from Longjing Village and Maokou, with serene views of nature right outside the door. Unlike the crowded areas around West Lake, this place feels peaceful and quiet, perfect for unwinding. The staff are incredibly friendly and responsive—any issue I had was addressed immediately. Though it’s a classic hotel with a slightly vintage feel, the rooms remain elegant, clean, and well-equipped. I loved having both a large bathtub and a separate shower, plus a private balcony to enjoy the tranquil surroundings. Staying here for several days allowed me to fully soak in the beauty of autumn in Hangzhou. Absolutely ideal.

I stayed here years ago and was really impressed when I returned recently—everything feels fresh and improved! The location is fantastic: super convenient for getting around Hangzhou, especially if you're driving, since the hotel has its own private parking. If you love hiking, you'll appreciate how close the trailhead is—just steps from the front door. The room itself looks like it’s been renovated recently—clean, modern, and thoughtfully designed. They even welcomed us with fresh fruit and snacks, which was a nice touch. The staff were incredibly attentive and responsive—every request was handled quickly and with genuine care.

The host was incredibly welcoming, even helping carry our luggage up to the room—such a thoughtful touch! The ambiance is serene and charming, with cozy spaces in the lobby and outdoors perfect for relaxing with friends over tea and quiet conversation while enjoying the passing views. What truly made it special was the little gift we received upon checkout: a pair of handmade ceramic mugs from the host’s own production—beautiful design, great texture, and such a sweet keepsake. This place offers comfort, charm, and genuine hospitality. Highly recommend for anyone looking for an authentic, memorable stay in Hangzhou.

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.

We Garden Hotel

We stayed here the night before a hiking trip to Taiziwan Park with our kids, and it was an absolutely perfect choice. The moment we walked in, we were greeted with a warm, welcoming atmosphere—clean, quiet, and thoughtfully designed. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel at home, offering helpful tips about nearby trails and even checking in on the children’s comfort throughout the stay. What truly made it special? Our son, who rarely comments on hotels, came up to me after breakfast and said, 'Mom, this place is awesome—can we come back?' That alone says it all. It's so close to the park, just a short walk or quick metro ride away, making our morning hike super convenient. The room was spacious, well-lit, and had everything we needed. For families looking for a peaceful, authentic stay near nature, this is definitely a top pick. We’ll be returning!

Tatata Guesthouse

The male owner is super friendly—chubby, charming, and looks surprisingly like a local version of Chinese pop icon Chen Guanxi. Staying here felt like being in a little oasis by the West Lake. The guesthouse is literally right next to Taiziwan Park, so every morning you wake up to lush greenery and fresh air that feels like breathing in nature itself. A quick 5-minute walk gets you to Su Causeway, where early-morning strolls along the lake are almost entirely peaceful—felt like I had the whole West Lake to myself. Nearby is Jingci Temple, and hearing the evening bell ring was oddly calming and grounding. The room was spotless, cozy, and thoughtfully decorated with comfy bedding that made me want to stay in all day. The owner even shared some hidden gem local eateries off the beaten path—authentic flavors, great value, absolutely delicious. This place truly elevated my trip to Hangzhou. If I come back, this will be my first choice. A real gem for anyone wanting to experience the soul of West Lake.

Shanse Yiqi Guesthouse

Staying at Shanse Yiqi Guesthouse was an absolute delight. The room was spacious and well-designed, with a tatami section right in the middle of the double bed—perfect for families with kids, as it eliminated any worries about them rolling off during the night. The space was spotless, fresh-smelling, and the air conditioning kicked in quickly, making the room comfortably cool. Location-wise, it's incredibly convenient—just a short walk to a charming local restaurant where a playful American Shorthair cat named Cuihua greets guests with charm. A mere 500 meters further leads straight to Jiuxi Yancun, where we arrived at 8:30 AM to find the trail completely quiet and serene—feeling like we had the entire place to ourselves. Parking was also a big plus: ample spots available, and even EV charging stations, which made our trip stress-free. This hidden gem offers comfort, convenience, and a peaceful escape—all at an unbeatable value. I’ll definitely be back.
