chambre d’hôtes de Guizhou, Chine

Le propriétaire du magasin est un chaud et chaud, l'ensemble du salon est chaud et calme et il est très confortable. Les enfants disent que la prochaine fois que je vais à Wanfengling et à Xingyi, je vais rester ici. Le jardin est également magnifique et je suis venu à la nuit pour prendre des photos.

Le meilleur hôtel de notre séjour au Guizhou. La patronne et son mari sont très gentils et à l’écoute. L’hôtel se trouve dans le village mais un peu à l’écart au calme, tout est accessible à pied. La vue sur les champs et les rizières au loin est très agréable. Nous avons été accueilli au RDC par les chats et l’oiseau de la propriétaire. La chambre est confortable et bien équipée. Le petit déjeuner proposé est soit chinois soit occidental et préparé avec soin. Je ne peux que vous recommander cet hôtel pour votre séjour. Il faut cependant noter qu’une nouvelle route contournant le centre de Zhaoxing vient d’être construite en mars 2026, tous les véhicules doivent y passer désormais, la rue centrale étant devenue piétonne exclusivement. Cet hôtel se trouve de l’autre côté du village (près de la magnifique route de randonnée vers Tang’an), mais à proximité de l’issue de cette nouvelle route. D’une certaine façon cet hôtel est donc devenu l’un des plus accessibles du village en voiture pour acheminer vos valises. L’hôtel propose de véhiculer jusqu’à la gare ou l’entrée du village, ce qui est très pratique (il faut compter 10-15 minutes jusqu’à l’entrée).

Really nice hotel, great views, super friendly staff also for international travelers wthi limited chinese speaking skills due to easy communication via WeChat. Helped us carry our luggage which was super convenient. Would recommend!

We arrived in Xijiang and were immediately met with such a kind surprise—they upgraded our room for my birthday, which truly set the tone for our entire stay. We were on the third floor with the most wonderful view, looking out over their little water feature and the village beyond. Our balcony, complete with a tea set and two chairs, quickly became one of our favorite spots. Sitting there, especially in the evening, felt magical—like we were nestled among the stars overlooking the town. The location is fantastic—just a short walk from the viewing platform and easily accessible down into the main village. Arriving was also incredibly smooth. As first-time visitors to China, we were quite nervous navigating trains and logistics as English speakers, but the hotel staff stepped in early with clear, thoughtful guidance. From the very beginning, they were attentive, responsive, and genuinely kind. When we arrived at the North Gate after taking the shuttle into the scenic area, a staff member met us and carried both of our bags up the hill and stairs to the accommodation. This was such a thoughtful gesture—especially because the terrain can be challenging. (For future travelers: if possible, avoid bringing heavy suitcases—but if you do, you’ll be very well taken care of here.) Check-in was seamless, and our room was extremely comfortable with all the amenities we needed. They provided water, soft robes, and made communication very easy via WeChat. Breakfast was also a highlight—we opted for the Chinese breakfast, which was light, healthy, and a perfect way to start the day before exploring all the incredible street food in town. We especially loved the communal living space—a cozy café-style area with a balcony overlooking the village. It was such a peaceful place to sit, have tea, and take in the views both during the day and under the night sky. They also had everything you could need: a coffee maker, dishes, mugs, and even fresh spring water, which was a lovely touch. The warmth of the people here truly made the experience unforgettable. The housekeeping staff were so kind, and the younger staff members were incredibly helpful and attentive. It really felt like being welcomed into a home rather than just staying at a hotel. And the little cats around the property made it even more special. On our departure day, we were running late for the last bus, and one of the younger staff members carried my very heavy bag down the hill and practically ran with it to make sure we made it on time. He stayed with us until we were safely on board. That level of care and service is something we will never forget. We would return in a heartbeat. Thank you, thank you, thank you again to the family and the entire staff for your kindness and for taking such wonderful care of us. You made our short stay in Xijiang an absolute pleasure and a weekend we will remember forever.

I booked very early to stay 9 nights to rest from the 5/1 busy holiday crowd for my one month travel in this region of China. The first week of my stay turned out to be a wonderful encounter of sorts. Two different ladies I met during my Feb trip to Shaxi, Yunnan decided to join me in Xingyi during their 5/1 holiday. I explained my new stay situation to the lady owner and very readily she arranged for us to stay in the 3 bedroom during their visit and move me back to my original booking after they left. Her flexibility and adaptability is impressive. We hit it off immediately and my 2 friends from different parts of China also experienced her kindness and super hospitality. All of us also received a thoughtful parting gift from her. Because the homestay was firstly built as a home, all amenities you can think of for a comfortable home is in each room. There is a good brand water purifier that emits drinking water at useful set temperatures for boiling, coffee, baby or room. There is a fridge within the room and any extra cookwares can be provided as needed. The room is also a Smarthome, I was delighted that xiaoai tongxue could understand my weird Chinese pronunciation. The bed and furnishings are top notched. I slept very well and deeply every night. I also used the Haier washing machine, make sure not to pour too much washing detergent as it is a high efficent machine. I am very grateful to be invited for meals whenever I'm at my room. It was very heart warming to witness the big heartedness of the lady owner. She gave me the feeling of coming home to a family that I never knew I have. I felt rested and so much at ease staying at this beautiful home that I was dragging my feet when it is time to leave. I think for my future travels, I will consider visiting for at least a week's rest, since its location is so accessible via either airport or highspeed train station. There is also a medical wellness shop next door. Best way to fully experience the life at this homestay is to show up for a free foot soak to understand the traditional chinese medicine concept of wellness and talk to their customers to learn of their recovery experiences. In summary, I highly recommend this homestay when you want to rest in a well designed city like Xingyi and to experience the friendliness of Guizhou people. The weather in Xingyi is also very conducive for good living. A good life should be lived and experienced like this; everyday making a point to eat well together, having good conversations and laughs, with love. Here, the connections are real.

A European's Ode to Anshun: Where Cherry Blossoms Met Home at Casa Lilium Posted by: Wandering European | March 2026 | ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ If you're seeking a journey that feels less like tourism and more like a soulful embrace—let me share a secret: Anshun, China, in early spring, is magic. And at its heart? A sanctuary called Casa Lilium. The Cherry Blossoms I arrived March 12th chasing online glimpses of pink blooms. What I found surpassed dreams: delicate petals dancing against karst mountains, quiet paths where time softened. Poetry in motion. But the true bloom wasn't only in the trees—it was in the people. Casa Lilium: More Than a Stay Casa Lilium redefines hospitality. Serene elegance rivals any 5-star boutique—yet with warmth no chain could replicate. Every corner whispers thoughtful curation: crisp linens, ambient lighting, spotless spaces that feel both luxurious and lived-in. The Heart of It All: Our Landlady Words fail, but I'll try: she is heartfelt, organized, effortlessly kind. When I arrived shivering in Anshun's 8°C March air, she appeared minutes later with a soft cardigan and knowing smile: ”For you, so you can enjoy our beauty comfortably.” That small gesture made me feel profoundly seen. When I mentioned wanting to capture Anshun through video, she acted. Within hours, she connected me with a talented local photographer—a true artist. The footage? Breathtaking. She gifted me memories I'll hold forever. A European's Truth: ”I Felt Home” The subtle loneliness of being far from familiar faces simply dissolved here. Language barriers softened through smiles and genuine care. Cultural distance? Bridged by shared tea, laughter, and her pride in showing me her Anshun. I didn't feel like a foreigner. I felt like a guest who'd been warmly awaited. Why This Review? Because travel at its best isn't about places—it's about connections. Casa Lilium isn't just accommodation; it's a portal to experiencing Guizhou with grace. The blossoms will bloom again. But feeling genuinely cared for? That's rare. That's precious. To future travelers: If your heart seeks beauty and kindness—choose Casa Lilium. Pack light. Bring an open heart. Leave with memories woven from cherry blossoms and warmth. To my landlady and the photographer: 谢谢 (xièxiè) isn't enough. Your generosity turned my trip into treasure. I will return. And I'll tell everyone: Anshun and Casa Lilium are not to be missed.

Excellent location. Centrally located in town vs. the advertised resort hotel. Upgraded our room with a spacious enclosed balcony with direct view of their shows area. Very helpful staffs that helped with lugging the luggages from arrival to departure. Highly recommend!!!

Installations : Décoration moderne et raffinée ; le grand lit rond a rendu le séjour très confortable. Propreté : Impeccable. Ambiance : L'atmosphère intime de la chambre, avec son grand lit rond, donnait l'impression de pénétrer dans un monde féerique. Service : Le personnel de l'hôtel était très attentionné et toujours disponible pour aider avec les bagages, apporter du café et intervenir en cas d'urgence. Les costumes, notamment les vêtements ethniques Miao, les couronnes et les colliers en argent, étaient magnifiques. Les photos prises sur le balcon étaient particulièrement réussies. La chambre était climatisée, ce qui a permis de prendre des photos estivales au frais. Enfin, et surtout, le balcon offrait une vue imprenable, idéale pour prendre des photos et admirer le paysage.

It was such a surprise find at Fanjingshan. The rooms are big with modern facilities including toilet seat sensor. The inn also has a lift for those with big luggages and don’t want to climb the stairs with them, a feature that is not in all the inns around. We have such a comfortable stay, even if it was just for a night. We took a didi to the inn in the evening and in the morning, the owner drove us to the gate of Fanjingshan to purchase the tickets. He also offered to pick us up when we are done for the day at fjs. He also helped us to engage a driver who drove us to fenghuang ancient town for a fair price based on our cab fare from Tongren to fjs. I will definitely recommend this inn which is also new, opened in March 2023. 房间干净偏大，负有摩登设施。 民宿里也有电梯，无需扛大行李上楼。 我们住得舒适也吃得好。 推荐！

L'établissement se situe un peu plus loin à l'intérieur du village Dong, légèrement en retrait de l'entrée principale. En contactant les propriétaires à l'avance, vous pourrez les voir venir vous chercher à la porte du village. Si vous n'avez pas de bagages, la marche est courte ; le village est plus petit que le village Miao de Xijiang et les chemins sont faciles d'accès. La maison d'hôtes donne sur une route à l'avant et sur des rizières à l'arrière, créant un environnement calme et paisible, idéal pour les amoureux de la nature. Bien qu'elle soit située au fond du village, elle est tout près de l'arrêt de bus pour Tang'an. Inutile de rejoindre la rue principale pour prendre le bus : il suffit de tourner à droite en sortant de la maison d'hôtes et de marcher jusqu'au parking – moins de dix minutes. Le service est excellent, ni trop enthousiaste ni trop superficiel. Les propriétaires, un couple, sont comme des voisins : très sympathiques et naturels. Ils viennent vous chercher à la porte du village et, en chemin, vous font découvrir les spécialités Dong et la cuisine locale. Heureusement, il y avait des chambres disponibles hors saison, et la propriétaire nous a même surclassés dans une chambre avec vue sur les rizières – un vrai bonheur ! Le petit-déjeuner était composé de nouilles au bœuf préparées par la propriétaire, accompagnées de fruits de saison, de légumes marinés et de petites crêpes – un repas très copieux. Du café et du thé en capsules sont disponibles en libre-service dans le salon. Comparé à l'animation du village Miao de Xijiang, je préfère le charme naturel et rustique des villages Dong. La prochaine fois que j'aurai envie d'une escapade relaxante, je choisirai sans hésiter cet endroit, et dans cette même maison d'hôtes.
