Nanping Hotels with balcony

Traveling to Wuyishan during the off-season was wonderful; the autumn scenery was absolutely stunning with everything golden-hued. I specifically chose a guesthouse to better appreciate Wuyishan's natural beauty. Shuizhuang No. 8 Guesthouse is truly nestled within a park, offering distant mountain views and a close-up look at the river while you sip tea and admire the ginkgo trees right outside your door. Not only is the scenery beautiful, but the surroundings are also quiet and comfortable. It's conveniently located with great transport links, and both the dining and accommodation are excellent. The service is warm and courteous, and the staff are very prompt in providing assistance. I'd highly recommend staying here over a hotel!

This B&B offers fantastic service. During our stay, we had unlimited complimentary drinking water and a wide selection of snacks, including delicious Dahongpao quail eggs. The complimentary fan and drink lanyard were also very practical. We even got a discounted vegetable dish for only 1 yuan when dining at their restaurant, and the prices were generally reasonable. We ate out a few times, but ultimately, we found the food at the B&B to be the best.

The room itself was very comfortable. I was initially worried about two beds being pushed together, but it was actually fine. I've already provided feedback that the pizza in the restaurant was really not good; the crust was unpleasantly dry. However, breakfast was truly abundant and delicious. On the other hand, both check-in and check-out were incredibly slow, to the point of being frustrating. I really hope they train their staff better before they start. The queueing system was also very chaotic; they really need someone circulating to observe the situation and assist the next guest promptly. The housekeeping service was excellent, and the overall hotel environment was very pleasant. The shuttle bus was very convenient, making it easy to get to the Old Street from the back entrance. The bicycles were also handy, but please fix the handlebars.

The hotel is located very close to the south entrance of Wuyishan, making it convenient to stroll and eat at the pedestrian street. The hotel service is warm and the place is clean and hygienic. The owner is very kind and upgraded our room for free. He also gave us two small packets of authentic Da Hong Pao tea. The hotel has complete facilities and amenities. The hotel's own back garden is beautiful, and there is a bookstore with a large floor-to-ceiling window facing Da Wang Peak. The sunset view in the evening is absolutely stunning. It was a truly wonderful experience.

Sure, here's a positive hotel review for such a place: --- My stay at the hotel overlooking the majestic mountains was nothing short of breathtaking. The room was beautifully appointed with a sunken soak bathtub, perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring. It was spotlessly clean and incredibly spacious, offering ample room to relax and enjoy the stunning views from the windows. The highlight of my experience was the delightful local cuisine served at the hotel's restaurant. Each meal was a culinary journey through the region's flavors, prepared with fresh, locally sourced ingredients. What truly set this hotel apart, however, was its exceptional staff. From the warm welcome at check-in to the attentive service throughout my stay, every member of the team went above and beyond to ensure I had a memorable experience. Their knowledge of the area and genuine hospitality made me feel right at home. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone seeking a peaceful retreat surrounded by natural beauty, delicious food, and outstanding service. It's a hidden gem that exceeded all my expectations.

We received a warm welcome from the staff. Check in was straightforward and prompt. The lobby area was spacious and pleasantly furnished. The staff gave us a room upgrade and we had a spacious and well appointed room that made us feel very at home. When we arrived, it was close to lunch time and the staff checked in on us on meal requests, we took the lunch and it was a good spread of local specialties. Breakfast was freshly made and gave us a good impression of how a well prepared local breakfast would be like, also the meal was well balanced with dairy, vegetables etc. The room package also included a afternoon tea in the garden with a water feature, a tea bath and a evening Chinese tea appreciation session where we chatted with the staff. We really enjoyed our stay there.

Tucked away in the mountains, this hotel offers a serene escape from the hustle and bustle, with its overall design exuding an elegant oriental charm. The floor-to-ceiling windows in the guest rooms provide breathtaking mountain views, and the bathtub by the window is perfect for a relaxing soak. The entire room is spotless, and the King Koil mattress is incredibly comfortable, ensuring a dreamless night's sleep. The butler service is attentive and polite, responding quickly to any requests. Guests can enjoy complimentary local rock tea. The hotel's amenities are excellent, and it's conveniently located, making it an ideal retreat from city life. Definitely worth recommending!

This place makes me wish there was an option for six stars. I study Asian art for a living, and I travelled to Jianyang to visit the home of Jian ware, classic tea bowls of the Song dynasty (960 to 1279 CE), distinguished by their black and brown glazes. Over the last few decades, firing Jian ware in the Song tradition has been revived in the area. I chose Nanping Colourful Village Homestay because it was in Jianyang, affordable, and accepted international guests. What I found was a luxury resort with all the warmth and personal attention of a homestay. I asked the front desk about an excavated Song kiln site in a nearby village, and the receptionist brought me the manager, who arranged for someone to take me the next day. My driver was Ms. Huang, an employee of the resort whose job involves buying and selling contemporary pieces. She knew everything about Jian ware! The kiln site isn’t run as a tourist site, so I was only able to view it because Ms. Huang arranged for it to be opened for me. I had told them I was vegetarian, so for lunch they took me to lunch at a vegetarian buffet. Then we visited the town’s Jian ware museum, where they have exhibits on the history of tea and Jian ware, historical pieces, and the work of contemporary Jianyang potters. To my delight, Mr. Gao, the potter-in-residence at the resort, uses a Song-style wood-fired dragon kiln, built right on the grounds! His pieces that range from beautiful but quite affordable to exquisite and appropriately expensive. They include both iridescent silvery oil spot and orange-to-black hare’s fur pieces. I am still thrilled that I was able to purchase wood-fired pieces on my limited budget. For dinner, the resort’s restaurant prepared vegetarian versions of Fujian cuisine for me. The food was all delicious, featuring classic Fujianese mountain ingredients like local bamboo and mushrooms. Then we visited Mr. Gao’s dragon kiln, and later his studio, where he experiments with different local clays and glaze recipes. The rich colours and iridescence of Jian ware are the result of the iron-rich local material fired at high temperature, and the results are as unpredictable as they are beautiful. The next day, they drove me to Mr. Chen’s family tea plantation in the mountains, where they grow famous northern Fujian teas. These fine teas were all wonderful, smooth and rich with a touch of smoke, and sometimes fruity in flavour. We strolled through mountainsides of tea bushes and visited groves of centuries-old tea trees. This is a perfect place for an immersive experience in China that is also very comfortable and convenient. I often find tourist experiences in China claustrophobic due to the press of people, but the resort was spacious and airy, and they took me to places where there was no one else but us and the occasional local going about their business. Everyone was very patient with my limited Chinese language skills. They were also happy to work with translator apps on our phones, so if you don’t speak any Chinese, you will be fine. This would be a great place to come as a family. There are gardens and rides for kids right next to the resort. You can learn how to whip Song-style tea and carve your name into the base of your own Jian ware cup. Not far away is a historical theme park with a collection of real architecture from the Ming (1368 to 1644 CE) and Qing (1636 to 1912 CE) dynasties. The employees wear period dress and there are performances and activities. Nearby there are hiking trails, historical sites, and lovely villages to visit. It’s also very close to Wuyi Mountain National Park, so it would be a perfect place to stay if the mountains are your destination. If you ask, they could arrange for you to visit famous sites or take you to breathtaking places that only locals know, whatever you want. They can also arrange transport to and from the train station or airport.

Whether you're on vacation or just traveling, this is a great choice. The hotel is conveniently located near the Wuyigong scenic shuttle bus stop, making transportation easy and quick. The hotel environment is elegant and comfortable, almost like a park, and the dining prices are reasonable. It will definitely be my first choice again next time!

The location of the hotel is very good, in a prime location in the city center. The front desk service staff is very good. I compared several hotels and chose this hotel. I especially want to praise their breakfast, which has many varieties and tastes very good. It’s very nice. It’s very good. The room environment is very nice! Awesome. Worth recommending.
