Xiying bieyuan holiday home stay (Tangkou South Gate store of Huangshan Scenic Spot)

The decor is quite stylish, and the family room was super cozy. The atmosphere is serene and elegant, and we had a fantastic time. The food was also delicious, especially the wild greens, which were wonderfully crisp and tasty.

The bathroom lacked a window, which resulted in a slightly noticeable damp smell, but otherwise, everything was perfect. The room was smoke-free and very clean. The interior decor was very appealing, and the owner was incredibly kind. The breakfast, prepared by the owner's mother (who used to make noodles in the mountains), was truly excellent. Our room also featured a terrace with beautiful mountain views.

The guesthouse is perfectly situated right next to the Emerald Valley Scenic Area. The rooms are well-appointed, and the attention to detail is even more thoughtful and personalized than what you'd typically find in a hotel. The surroundings are peaceful and charming, with a fresh, modern guesthouse style. The owner is a lovely, young host, and they offer a very convenient pick-up and drop-off service.

While the guesthouse's location was a bit distant from the transit hub, we were relieved that the owner provided warm and friendly shuttle service, which really put our minds at ease. The room was clean and quite quiet, perfect for a peaceful rest. The breakfast noodles were delicious!

I stayed here in 2022 during my trip to Huangshan. This was my second visit, and I specifically brought my parents along, but I ended up feeling a bit disappointed. It seems there's a new owner. The food wasn't as flavorful as I remembered; my first dining experience here was so outstanding it left a lasting impression. Perhaps my high expectations contributed to the disappointment. On the positive side, the ingredients were fresh, and they even prepared an extra portion for us at breakfast. We had booked for two nights, but due to rain on the second day, we canceled our plan to climb Huangshan and went to Hongcun instead, checking out after just one night. They refused to refund the second night's room fee, and even a request for a partial (50%) refund was denied. So, I just let it go. This means there won't be a third stay for me. I had originally planned to return here for hiking when the weather was good, and had even recommended it to friends, but this experience has definitely dampened my enthusiasm. Of course, changing my plans was my personal choice, so the non-refund is understandable. Still, I can't help but feel a bit put out, haha! Also, the room didn't have floor heating, which I found odd. I figured since there was air conditioning, I didn't bother to inquire. The owner's mother was very easygoing and made us feel right at home, which was a lovely touch. All in all, there was more disappointment than satisfaction, and the unforgettable flavors I remembered were simply gone.

This place is super close to Jade Valley, just a short walk away. The rooms are very clean, and there's a pool that the kids absolutely loved. You can pre-order your meals, and they deliver them punctually – plus, the food was really delicious! The owner is incredibly welcoming and hospitable. Parking is also available right outside.
