This hotel is located on Chaozong Street, just a short walk through an underpass to Guojin Street. I didn't want to stay on Guojin Street because it's too noisy. It's about 500 meters from Wuyi Square metro station. I searched for ages on Ctrip and Qunar to find this hotel, and to my surprise, everything exceeded my expectations.
Within 100 meters, you can find Heytea and various snacks. This is a local Hunan hotel, not a national chain, but the designer's skill is exceptional: every detail is thoughtful and well-designed, with beautiful views at every turn. Every part of the hotel, including the corners of the room, is perfect for photos.
The room was spotlessly clean, with no dust. The facilities are excellent too. After walking 35,000 steps on the first day, I was exhausted. When I showered, I found the showerhead provided really comfortable, relaxing water. The water temperature was stable, and the hot water came out super fast. And the mattress – you have to try it to believe it. I booked a projector room, and listening to music and watching MVs was so relaxing; I fell asleep very quickly. I also want to praise the electric kettle. I usually bring my own, but I didn't this time and was worried. However, I found their kettle lid could be opened, so I could clean it thoroughly before using it. This solved my need for hot water in winter. The breakfast was plentiful, with local options, so I didn't even need to bother buying anything from the walking street outside.
Every aspect of this hotel was thoughtful and satisfying, and Sisi provided excellent service. After redeeming my Ctrip points, the room cost 280 yuan. For this price, a national chain hotel would definitely be subpar, but as a local hotel, it was incredibly satisfying. I even want to visit Changsha again just for this hotel, haha!
My child even asked, "Is this hotel only in Changsha? We're so satisfied!"
Finally, the recommendations for restaurants in the guide the hotel gave me were very reliable. I skipped the网红 (influencer-hyped) restaurants and opted for places locals frequent, which was a good decision.
