Shiyan Hotels with Breakfast

I loved saying here. The homestay is located within the scenic area. It can be hard to navigate the area if you’re coming here for the first time. I got dropped off at a station after I showed the driver the address and walked uphill for 20-30 minutes before I was able to find the homestay. I recommend getting in touch with the homestay beforehand to arrange a pickup from the bus point since buses don’t drop you all the way to the homestay. There is free service for pick up and drop off to/from the bus station. The food here was spectacular - simple and delicious. The people who work here are super considerate and welcoming. The homestay also partners with Wudang Taoist Academy which I later found out so I might be back to participate in one of the programs later on however if you are traveling to Wudang and also looking for classes in Tai Chi from well established instructors, this is definitely the place to be. The person who runs it is well-connected and can help you out with whatever you need. I was mostly communicating via WeChat which translated English-Chinese and vice versa easily. If you want to explore other areas within Wudang, you most definitely will be needing the shuttle bus. I am very satisfied with my stay and will return if I get an opportunity.

Finally got to Wudang Mountain for some much-needed relaxation! This hotel truly exceeded my expectations. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive. The hotel's ambiance is fantastic, especially the large terrace – the view is breathtaking. On a clear day, seeing the distant mountains and sea of clouds instantly brings a sense of peace. The room itself is designed in a new Chinese style, with thoughtful details, and the bathroom looks very high-quality; it was a really comfortable stay. Beyond the beautiful scenery, the overall experience was top-notch! In the afternoon, there's complimentary Shenshi tea, perfect for sitting down, sipping tea, and chatting – so pleasant. Breakfast was also delicious, with a rich variety of fresh options that left me feeling energized. You can also catch the sunset over at Nanyan Palace. The biggest surprise was the free Tai Chi class! Practicing Tai Chi with the instructor on the terrace in the evening, with the sky above and mountain breeze, was incredibly therapeutic. The instructor was very professional and responsible, correcting postures hand-in-hand and patiently guiding us, so even beginners could quickly pick it up. The service throughout was superb, making us feel completely at home. I'll definitely be staying here again on my next visit to Wudang Mountain!

This hotel/retreat is an incredibly special place, and I feel so grateful to have come across it in my travels, as it will hold a special place in my memory! I have a strong feeling that I will be back (possibly many times!) in the future. I cannot say enough good things about it, whether it be the beautiful architectural design of the buildings and landscaping of the property, the gorgeous cafe, the zen-like room aesthetic, the calm and nourishing atmosphere of the whole place, the incredibly kind staff, and the nourishing and delicious food (which is made with great attention and care paid to the ingredients (most of which are grown on the farm), and their healing principles according to the elements and Chinese medicine nutrition)). There are free evening healing offerings too, including sound healing, card reading, and other thing, which bring guests together to experience collectively as well, in a beautiful retreat center room. The cafe/lobby building is such a pretty and welcoming space, one could easily spend hours enjoying a conversation or reading a book, or petting one of the many adorable cats that roam the property. Even walking along the meandering path to the hotel from the main road is a beautiful experience, winding through tea fields in this magical valley at the base of steep mountains surrounding it. I have stayed at a number of hotels in China during my travels, but this place is by far my favorite of all of them, for its authentic feel and heartfelt warmth. It truly is a uniquely powerful place for healing and restoration, nestled in such a picturesque, quiet hillside of Wudang mountain!!

If you're planning to take the cable car up and walk down, this is the place to stay. The location is excellent, right next to the Taizipo Station. We arrived and checked in on the first afternoon, and the next morning we had noodles here before taking the cable car to the Golden Summit. The guesthouse was very clean, and the bedding and bathroom amenities were of high quality. On the day we arrived, the owners were making handmade tofu for Chinese New Year – it smelled so good, I couldn't resist ordering a bowl of tofu pudding. We ordered several dishes for dinner, and the uncle cooked them very well. The owners and their family seemed very kind and simple. When we left, the uncle was carrying a basket of oranges down from Taizipo and kindly offered us some to take on the road… Most importantly, the owners never asked us for a review. So, being the rebellious person I am, I had to give them a long and enthusiastic review!

Just got off the bus, I saw the housekeeper waiting on the side of the road. They smiled and picked up their luggage, and the fatigue of the road was instantly dissipated. Walking along the road for only five minutes, you will arrive at the B&B hidden in the depths of the streets. It is close to Nanyan Palace and Zixuan Palace. There are many restaurants and shops around. You can enter the door and the hustle and bustle will be isolated. The room was clean and bright, and the design of separation of dry and wet was very intimate. I slept extraordinarily that night, and the mattress was moderately firm and soft, like lying in a cloud. Love the terrace facing the mountains. All kinds of green plants stretched out in the morning light, sitting at the tea table, holding the tea. The fog slowly rose from the valley, sometimes winding the peaks, sometimes over the forest. Sitting so quietly, watching the mountains and watching the fog, I forgot the time. Here, the service is silent warmth always appearing in due time when needed, and leaving us with enough quietness. This journey has become different due to this homestay, enjoying the joy of the mountains and rivers, and the warmth of the world.

The location is fantastic, just a one-minute walk to the right from the cable car's upper exit. It's incredibly convenient for watching the sunrise. You can easily catch it from the hotel, next to the tea house, or from the viewing platform which is just a 10-minute walk away. The hotel even provides the sunrise times and recommended departure times. Breakfast and lunch are both available, so you'll have something to eat when you get back. The front desk staff are meticulous, providing timely tips and quickly resolving any issues. The owner is incredibly warm and thoughtful, both practical and meticulous, yet so welcoming 🌹. They even gave us a souvenir when we checked out. Thank you! Wishing them a prosperous business and all the best.

The room is simple and cozy, clean and comfortable, with soft bedding that makes you feel relaxed. It's very quiet at night. There are plenty of dining options nearby, and the local food is delicious. The hotel front desk helped us plan a very practical travel itinerary, saving us from taking too many unnecessary detours. They even thoughtfully reminded us to bring motion sickness patches and medicine, as the winding roads up Shiwangwan Mountain are particularly challenging for those prone to motion sickness.

The environment is fantastic, perfect for a family trip. The butler service is excellent, and the food is incredibly delicious, they even deliver it to your room, which is a big plus. The cleanliness is top-notch, making for a very comfortable stay. Plus, it's pet-friendly, which is awesome!

The overall stay experience is very satisfactory! The quality of the Vienna chain is very stable. The check-in efficiency at the front desk is high and the staff is gentle and courteous. The European-style decoration of the hotel lobby is clean and atmospheric. The room is spacious, the sanitation is meticulous, and there is no dust in the corner. The mattress is moderately soft and hard, mainly for deep sleep, good sound insulation, and very quiet at night. The bathroom is separated from wet and dry, and the hot water supply is stable. The WiFi network speed is smooth and the office is completely enough. It is convenient to travel around and eat, cost-effective online, preferred for business trips, and will continue to book next time!

The location is very convenient, close to Yuxu Palace and the museum, and the surrounding area is not noisy. Facilities: The facilities are relatively old, the windows cannot be closed, and the window screens are useless when they are barely closed. The air conditioner rumbles like a tractor all night, and the air outlet is broken. It blows towards the bed, which makes your mouth dry. Several rooms are like this. Hygiene: The bathroom may have just been cleaned, it is full of water. As soon as you enter, the whole room smells of betel nut. Service: Checked in at night, came on the second day of the Chinese New Year, maybe there were too many people, and there was no room to change. The front desk said to find someone to repair the window, but it didn't come. Even more bottles of water were not given.
