Must-stay Japanese-style courtyard hotel in Changsha

What surprised me the most on this trip to Changsha was staying at Pujing Hotel—I was completely won over by their Japanese-style courtyard rooms! The courtyard design fills the entire room with a Zen vibe. Sitting in the yard, watching the golden-yellow tree against Changsha’s blue sky and white clouds, every snap feels like a masterpiece 🍁 📍Super convenient hotel location Right at the subway entrance, within walking distance to the Provincial Museum and Martyrs Park, and just a few subway stops to Yuelu Mountain. For someone like me who doesn’t like to fuss, it’s the perfect location. Plus, there are tons of trendy restaurants around the hotel, so no worries about finding great food~ 🏡Room highlights deserve special praise 1️⃣ Absolutely love this Japanese courtyard design—lying on the lounge chair soaking up the sun, watching the maple and ginkgo leaves in the yard, the vacation vibe is instantly maxed out 2️⃣ The bathroom with separate wet and dry areas is super user-friendly, no delays in the morning routine 3️⃣ The shower oil is amazing! The scent of black tea and fruit lingers throughout the bathroom—I immediately wanted to get the same one when I got home 4️⃣ The makeup mirror is a girl’s dream, the attention to detail is 💯 📸Photo tips ✔️The lounge chair and ginkgo tree in the courtyard are a natural photo frame ✔️The wooden elements in the room paired with the Japanese robe make for a great look ✔️Be sure to catch the evening sunlight streaming through the floor-to-ceiling windows 🔍Nearby guide In the morning, you can walk directly to the Provincial Museum (remember to book in advance), take a stroll in Martyrs Park at noon to help digestion, take the subway to Yuelu Mountain in the afternoon to watch the sunset, and relax with a bath back at the hotel in the evening—a perfectly planned day~ 💡Booking tips 1. Courtyard rooms are very popular, so it’s recommended to book 1-2 weeks in advance 2. The hotel offers afternoon tea, remember to ask about it when you check in 3. The temperature difference in Changsha is big recently, so bringing a light jacket is necessary
