Anji Hotels with Bars

🏨 **About the Hotel:** This low-density resort, converted from an old schoolhouse, boasts 23 rooms with a charming blend of Suzhou and Japanese architectural styles. The facilities and service are top-notch, making it the perfect place to unwind. 🛏 **Room & Service:** We booked a courtyard room, which was spacious and quiet at 80 sqm. ✅ **180° Floor-to-Ceiling Windows:** Perfect for lounging in bed and gazing at the misty bamboo forest. The mini-bar offers complimentary Evian and Perrier. ✅ **Service:** Expect a free fruit platter daily and a complimentary 'goodnight soup' in the evenings. Staff are incredibly responsive – ginger tea is brought to you immediately after a swim, and a shuttle is ready whenever you need to head out. ✅ **Amenities:** The hotel offers a home theater, bar, heated pool, gym, billiards, a book bar, and a fantastic restaurant (it’s delicious and totally changed my perception of Jiangnan cuisine!). You can also borrow bicycles. It’s an all-inclusive experience, so you barely need to leave the property, though the spa is still under construction. There are also rice paddies and cherry blossoms; it must be stunning in autumn and spring. I’d love to come back! 🍽 **Dining:** You absolutely must try the 'Mountain and Wilderness' cuisine at Liyuan Restaurant. Many dishes require a day’s advance booking. The braised goose was incredibly tender, and the 'Yan Du Xian' soup was incredibly flavorful. Breakfast can even be delivered to your room – enjoying breakfast in bed while looking at the bamboo forest is incredibly relaxing.

The room design was great, and both the elderly and children loved it. They even thoughtfully provided eye masks. The room had a smart smart control system and underfloor heating. Both the indoor and outdoor views were fantastic, especially the hot spring in the bamboo forest. The service was excellent; they responded immediately to every request, even late at night – thank you so much to the young man! Initially, the guesthouse had stopped providing underfloor heating for the first few days of our stay because it was getting warmer, but on the day we arrived, it got a bit cold, and my child liked to walk on the floor without slippers. The owner kindly turned the heating back on – thank you! We had dinner at the guesthouse: chicken soup, braised bamboo shoots, and braised catfish. The auntie cooked it very well; my elders still rave about it afterward, haha. Breakfast was rather home-style, but the auntie's soft-boiled eggs were delicious, and the young man's hand-drip coffee was also very good. One small suggestion: could the guesthouse consider allowing guests to choose between regular towels and disposable towels in the future? My child only made this suggestion about the towels, haha. Also, it would be even better if there was an absorbent mat in the bathroom. Overall, it's good, pet-friendly, and I recommend it.

The hotel is located in a small village at the heart of the bamboo forest, which offers stunning views on the surrounding mountains and tea fields. The rooms are nicely decorated and pretty well equipped. The personal is very kind and try to be helpful. That being said, our stay was not as good as we had expected because the bedroom and the restaurant were freezing cold. When we first arrived in our room the heating was off so we had to turn it on, which was fine, however 5h later it was still only 17°c in the room and it was already getting dark… We complained and the staff kindly offered to upgrade us to a room which was supposed to be warmer and it was, but only by one or two degrees depending on the hour of the day. The restaurant was only 10°c so we had to eat with jackets and hats on. The floor heating had not been turned on yet unfortunately. So if you consider staying at this hostel during Autumn/Winter make sure to ask if the floor heating is on before booking.

The room is very clean, comfortable and hygienic. Children like it very much, but I feel it is more suitable for couples because the design of the bathroom is a bit inconvenient for parent-child families. There is also a bathroom on the first floor, but there is no shower. Parents of the opposite sex have to take a shower in advance. Other than that, it is almost full marks. The service is very, very, very good. The brothers are very handsome and the sisters are also very beautiful. They have a strong sense of service. The housekeeper is responsive to every request. A care package is provided every day, which is a canvas cosmetic bag that can be taken away. The toiletries are lelabo, and there are enough drinks. The restaurant is not big, so make reservations in advance. The food is very delicate and the taste is good. Afternoon tea and hot spring bath are also provided. It is very, very, very comfortable!

Honestly, check-in started a bit unpleasantly. Perhaps it was the summer peak, and the hotel seemed understaffed, leading to slower service. Compared to the Banyan Tree Lijiang and Hangzhou, the service here was a bit disappointing. We waited a long time to check in, and dinner at the restaurant had multiple errors – like repeatedly asking for no ginger and still getting it in our food. However, the room was a huge plus! We booked a lake view suite with a 270-degree balcony, offering unobstructed views of the lake and mountains. Waking up to blue skies, white clouds, green mountains, and clear waters after opening the curtains was truly therapeutic. The hotel breakfast was also excellent, much better than what some online reviews suggested. There was a wide variety and the taste was great, definitely superior to other hotels in the same category. If you're traveling with kids, staying at the hotel itself is enough; there are plenty of dining and activity options nearby like paddleboarding, horseback riding, off-roading, and river tracing. Overall, the experience was quite good. Especially, you must try the hotel's travel photography service – they take amazing photos!

For work reasons, I chose Manwanhua. The environment was exceptional, and I felt like I was on vacation. The tea plantations and buildings coexist harmoniously, and the infinity pool, reflecting the Metasequoia trees, creates a modern, stylish atmosphere. The housekeeping was proactive, responsive, and welcoming. The coffee was excellent, and the metal fence around the pool was a creative way to sit and enjoy a cup of coffee. In the evening, the breeze blew, and gazing at the stars was a relaxing experience.

This Club Med is truly a hassle-free option for family trips. 🥐 Regarding dining and space The breakfast was incredibly rich, with both Chinese and Western options, and the quality was consistently high. The kids loved it, and the adults were satisfied too. The room was very spacious, with an extra-wide bed, plenty of room for a family of four. The children had ample space to play in the room, and it never felt crowded. 🎉 Regarding parent-child activities It truly lives up to its reputation as the ultimate family resort! There were so many activities. Our children weren't old enough for the kids' club (it's for ages 4 and up), but I'm sure it would have been even more fun for them to play with other kids, and it would have given the adults a break. The evening activities were especially fantastic. Every night there were different themed shows and parties, with the G.O.s singing and dancing. My two kids were mesmerized, dancing along with them, and the atmosphere was wonderful! The children didn't want to leave until very late. 💖 Special thanks to GRO Eric Special thanks to our GRO Eric! He took care of us meticulously from check-in to check-out. When he learned we had booked two rooms, he specifically arranged generous fruit platters for both. Knowing we had two children, he also provided extra milk. These thoughtful details truly touched us! In summary, this was a trip where everyone in the family, young and old, was satisfied. Highly recommended for all families with children!

This Anji Little Forest B&B is perfect for travelers with furry friends! They don't charge a deposit or a pet cleaning fee. The owner has a Labrador named Koala 🐨, who's a really gentle big brother and played happily with our dog. The courtyard is surrounded by bamboo, and the air is incredibly fresh. If the sun were to shine through the leaves, the whole atmosphere would be so relaxing. Unfortunately, it rained when we were there, so we got to listen to the rain falling on the bamboo. Our room had a terrace and an outdoor bathtub 🛁, which I would have definitely used if the weather hadn't been so cold. The owner is very easygoing and pet-friendly; our dog had an absolute blast. When traveling with a dog, I always prioritize B&Bs run by fellow dog owners – if you know, you know. The surrounding attractions are all pretty close and easily accessible by car. The best part is the bamboo chicken stew here in Anji – it's incredibly fragrant and delicious in every bite! You can search Gaode Maps for local restaurants that locals frequent. I'll definitely come back next time! We also went to a paragliding base cafe on the hillside, but things were a bit pricey, and the view wasn't great due to the rain. Hopefully, I'll have a chance to come back in the summer to enjoy some water activities.

Anji Mountain Non-Mountain Resort Hotel really exceeded expectations! This trip to Anji was full of happiness because of this hotel ✨ The overall environment of the hotel is quiet and elegant, surrounded by mountains and forests, and it feels relaxed when you step in. What is more pleasant is that you can enjoy a free room upgrade when you stay. The room is spacious and comfortable, and the price/performance ratio is directly doubled. ～ The supporting facilities are super complete, the water temperature of the heated swimming pool is just right, it is particularly comfortable to swim, and you can play in the water in autumn and winter; the gym equipment is enough, the laundry room is also very convenient, and the travel is worry-free and comfortable. Breakfast must be emphasized! The category is rich to pick the eyes, take into account Chinese and Western tastes, the fresh taste of the ingredients is online, and the whole day is full of vitality. The most plus point is the butler service, the whole process is intimate and thoughtful, the details are full of care. The whole experience is excellent, it is an impressive perfect accommodation, next time you come to Anji, you will definitely choose here, I really recommend it to everyone!

This summer weekend, we took our kids on a family trip, and I have to say, the service at Starlight Hotel was exceptional throughout! Our butler, Yolo, was incredibly thoughtful and attentive. She contacted me in advance with all the key check-in information and patiently answered every single one of my questions. Upon arrival at the reception center on check-in day, after completing the check-in process, a hotel shuttle took us to the cable car entrance. (Friendly tip: You can buy adult cable car tickets in advance. Children over 1.2 meters also need a ticket.) The hotel is located on the mountain, and after reaching the top via cable car, another hotel shuttle will take you directly to the hotel. We didn't have to worry about a thing! For activities, the 'Cloud Top Grassland' with its blue skies and white clouds was simply stunning in the summer. We were even lucky enough to see a rainbow 🌈 and some sheep passing by! We went grass-sledding, which the kids absolutely loved. There's also a 'Children's Paradise' suitable for younger kids, and various other recreational facilities to choose from. Even if you don't want to do anything active, just lying down and watching the clouds and scenery is a pure delight, looking at the rolling green hills in the distance – it was truly a 'Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains' painting come to life! We watched the sunset and sunrise, and in the evening, there was a drone show that was absolutely spectacular. It was a joyful and fulfilling day! As for dining, there's a buffet, a Chinese restaurant, and other food outlets like Papa John's and Honeymoon Desserts. There's also a Luckin Coffee in Xianxia Town.
