An unexpectedly good Villa at the foot of Nineteen Peaks

Because I love glutinous rice so much and heard that Xinchang has nice scenery, I decided to take a short vacation there. I was a bit worried after reading some negative reviews before going, but the actual experience exceeded my expectations, so I decided to write about it. Transportation: Self-driving is probably the most convenient as there isn't much public transportation around the hotel. Scenery: The hotel is located in the Nineteen Peaks scenic area, and the scenery is quite good. The guest rooms are distributed along the river in the canyon, and the architectural style is similar to that of Ninghai Anlan. The outdoor lighting design of their home is quite good, and it looks beautiful with stars dotted around in the evening. The river was green the two days before we went, but it turned yellow after it rained and didn't look so good. Facilities: The cloud ladder is a highlight, a blessing for those who don't like climbing mountains, and there is air conditioning in the elevator~ The view from the top of the mountain is very good, with a tea room and a lawn hall and so on. The entire hotel area covers a large area and needs to be shuttled by sightseeing cars. There is a horse farm at the entrance, and at the end of the main road are indoor and outdoor swimming pools, a gym, a children's activity center, etc. It was hot these two days, and going to the outdoor swimming pool during the day was like soaking in a hot spring~ Catering: The breakfast choices are not very many, there is a gap compared to Park Hyatt Intercontinental, but there is freshly squeezed juice (the dinner watermelon juice was too expensive so I drank two cups for breakfast), and the small wontons are okay. The hotel only has one Chinese restaurant, which is expensive, but there isn't much to eat nearby. If you want to eat outside, you have to drive for quite a while, so we just solved it in the hotel. I think the taste is average, the steamed river dumplings are good, my mom said the taste is quite good. Three people, three dishes and a bowl of noodles cost 900 yuan, the portion is okay, quite a lot. Room: We stayed in Qingya Residence, the room has a very high ceiling, I was originally worried about bugs, but maybe because we didn't open the floor-to-ceiling windows, it was okay. But once when we returned to the room, we saw a centipede lying on its mouth. The mini bar is just Sprite, Coke, orange juice, nothing special~ Service: I want to emphasize this point, because I felt average in Ninghai Anlan before, and I saw some negative reviews before departure, so my expectations were not high. When checking in, there was only one front desk girl helping with luggage, which is true, but in other aspects, they were very enthusiastic and proactive. Our butler is called Mia, who will add friends to register the license plate before check-in, send the electronic menu of the restaurant, recommend nearby restaurants, and after check-in, she will also actively ask whether to reserve meals, whether there is a need for items in the room, etc. During the period, the sofa bed was moved because it was under the air conditioning vent and the wind was causing a headache. The bed will be opened at night and snacks and drinks will be left. The matcha crisp is quite delicious. Usually, the car is relatively fast, generally 5-10 minutes. There is a driver called Xiao Ming, who is very enthusiastic and humorous. When he is not busy, he took us around and introduced the facilities. When the brother sees a guest walking on the road while driving, he will slow down and ask if he needs a car, which is quite good. Even the cleaning aunt on the top of the mountain will share the sunset she took with us, telling us where to watch the sunset, the experience is quite good. Finally, they gave us coffee and small bread when we checked out~
