Xianzai Houshe Hotel (Dujiangyan Scenic Area) Reviews

A hidden gem guesthouse nestled in the ancient city! The location is absolutely superb – step right out and you're on the night market street. You can even spot the 'blue tears' phenomenon from the guesthouse rooftop. Rooms are exceptionally well-equipped, featuring a mini-bar area and a tatami platform, among other amenities. It offers excellent value for money, and the bedding and mattresses are super comfortable. Highly recommended! Regarding parking: The closest parking lot is just over 200 meters away. During peak season, parking can be challenging due to heavy traffic, or the road leading to it might be congested. Alternatively, the Dujiangyan Scenic Area P2 parking lot is about a 500-meter walk, but it typically has more available spaces. Parking costs 10 RMB per 12 hours.

Staying in a guesthouse within a scenic ancient town certainly has its trade-offs. On the plus side, it's incredibly convenient for getting around and finding places to eat. In the mornings, the old town is beautifully quiet and cool. The breakfast was quite varied, and even the kids loved it. The room itself was acceptable, but nothing particularly special. However, being so close to the snack street means you can't really expect quiet. It gets loudest between 11 PM and midnight when the vendors are packing up their stalls. Another point for improvement: the bathroom light kept automatically turning off. For the Hanfu experience, there's a 500 RMB deposit, and you only get to wear it for two hours. Styling and photography are extra costs. The staff member wasn't pushy with trying to sell more, though. If you're just looking for a quick photo op, you won't even need the full two hours, and the deposit is refunded very quickly. All in all, it was an 'okay' experience; neither particularly good nor bad.

I booked two rooms for my friends. The only minor issue was some street noise, but otherwise, everything was great. The interior decor had a lovely classic charm, and the rooms were spacious and comfortable. The breakfast buffet offered a rich variety of options. Plus, they provide complimentary laundry service, which is a huge bonus for multi-day travelers needing to do their washing.

Our 270-degree room exceeded all expectations; it was fantastic. The owner was incredibly friendly and helpful, and complimentary breakfast was included. There's a wide array of delicious food options right downstairs. What's more, you can witness the 'Blue Tears' phenomenon directly from your room – absolutely breathtaking and a truly memorable experience!

The hotel is nestled in the ancient city. The owner sends location details a day in advance, as its spot in an ancient alley can be a bit tricky to locate. From the ancient city, you can easily walk directly to Nanqiao Bridge, where you might witness the 'blue tears'. What's more, crossing Nanqiao Bridge leads straight to the main entrance of Dujiangyan, making it conveniently accessible on foot, no taxi required.

The room was spotless, and the butler provided excellent service. The guesthouse is located right in the heart of the ancient town, with a snack street just downstairs. It's only a few minutes away from the 'Blue Tears' attraction, and Dujiangyan Scenic Area is also very easily accessible.

The hotel is conveniently located at the crossroads of the ancient town's pedestrian street, and it's also quite close to the car park and the Blue Tears Ancient Bridge. It's very drone-pilot friendly 🤝! They boast a spacious rooftop, perfect for a relaxing tea break. This means you won't have to jostle with crowds by the river when flying your drone to capture the Blue Tears – what an unexpected bonus! 🤩

Facilities: The automatic curtains can be opened and closed with a simple button press. Hanfu Experience: Guests can wear Hanfu for photos with the 'Blue Tears' phenomenon (costume only; makeup and hair styling are not included). Location: The hotel is situated on the third floor and features a spacious garden.

Great experience! The reception staff were wonderful, and the location is super convenient.

The hotel is just a 15-minute walk from the train station, nestled right in the heart of the old town. The spacious room overlooks the Main Street, and the river is only a minute away—making it easy to reach all the major attractions. Breakfast is very simple (Chinese-style) but sufficient. While cleanliness is ok, there’s room for improvement.

This was easily the best room I've stayed in during my current trip. It was impeccably clean, the service was fantastic, and the location is absolutely perfect. It was incredibly convenient for shopping right downstairs, exploring the local area, and finding great places to eat. I'll definitely choose this guesthouse again if I have the opportunity.

Very close to the South Bridge Blue Tears, it's a great photo op at night.

Love staying in this hotel. The location is perfect, next to the bridge, shops and street food. We even can see the river from our window. The giant "Selfie Panda" is just walking distance, crossing the street from underground. Room is so big and spacious for 3 of us. We will definitely staying in this hotel again, when we visit Dujiangyan.

It's very close to Dujiangyan, and the owner was very welcoming.
