Mountain View Hotels in Yixing

This was my favorite hotel on our ten-day trip around Taihu Lake. It boasts an exquisite, secluded style, emphasizing a return to simplicity without the need for smart technology. There are no TVs in the rooms, and the curtains are all manual, with keyless entry. But every step was filled with breathtaking beauty. The service was exceptional. The housekeeper asked for our arrival time in advance. We parked in the parking lot and took the electric cart up the mountain. However, since my mother had mobility issues, the cart took us directly to the elevator and even assigned us the room closest to the elevator. The housekeepers were incredibly kind and friendly, smiling every time they greeted us. Since we were staying for several days, we decided to skip housekeeping, so we hung a sign saying ”no housekeeping required.” The housekeepers waited at the door until the housekeeper confirmed we needed towels changed and items replenished. They were incredibly attentive and responsible. The afternoon tea was exquisite, and every dessert was delicious. We didn't want to waste any, so we devoured all three desserts each day. The next day, we were too lazy to go downstairs to the restaurant, so the housekeeper even brought them to our room. The room also included tickets to the Yixing Ceramics Museum, which you could spend a whole day exploring. Besides the history of ceramics and collections from different dynasties, the room also boasts a beautiful museum. There are also numerous works and manuscripts by Gu Jingzhou, which are well worth a visit. However, the museum is quite old, and only one side has an elevator. Some sections require walking up and down stairs, making it difficult for those with mobility issues. During osmanthus season, the fragrance of osmanthus fills the air. Nearby, at the entrance to Longbei Mountain, there are dark-colored osmanthus trees, which are incredibly fragrant. Conversely, at the windy Tao Erchang, apart from the UCCA building and a handmade jewelry shop by an independent designer, everything else exudes an internet celebrity vibe and a cheap feel. It took me five minutes to explore. The only downside to the hotel is the small rooms. I think there are 17 rooms, averaging around 40 to 50 square meters, but it certainly didn't feel cramped. Even when the hotel is full, it's still quiet, perhaps influenced by the surroundings, preventing noise. I'll definitely be back.

Springtime arrived in beautiful Yixing, and the fresh air, stunning scenery, and relaxing time made everything so wonderful and pleasant. Sanpin Yunlai Inn is located in the Ming and Qing Dynasty ancient town of Yulongtan, a somewhat abandoned scenic area with little commercialism, primarily offering guesthouses. It's said that the buildings here were rebuilt from folk houses in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Anhui provinces, and upon closer inspection, they are quite historically significant. The living room of Sanpin Yunlai Inn, where we stayed, is a traditional Qing Dynasty building, originally designed for a third-rank official, with carved beams and painted rafters. Combined with the owner's artistic interests, the blend of ancient and modern styles is very natural. The guesthouse felt very homey and casual, offering tea, conversation, watching TV series, karaoke, games, and card games – everything was available. We even tried fishing with the owner and actually caught something, which was quite satisfying. There are many restaurants nearby, so you can try them one by one; the food is all quite good.

Fantastic hotel! It made my visit to Yixing extra enjoyable. The room looks exactly like description and very clean. The staff from front desk to housekeeping are very friendly and helpful, makes your feel like home. The resort is huge but the drivers are always there to bring you around to other parts of the property. The bathroom is so clean and smells nice all the time. Beds and pillows are comfortable too. It is really one of the best hotel I have stayed in. Breakfast was delicious and the Chinese restaurant in the main hotel sets very high standard. What a lovely room to go back to after a long and tiring day from 竹海 and 瑶湖小镇. By the way, it’s easy to grab Didi from the resort.

The hotel's overall landscape design is excellent, and it's very quiet, making it ideal for a vacation. Although the terrace rooms don't have an elevator, the staff are always on hand to help with luggage. However, I do have a few suggestions for improvement: 1. The cocktails at the bar were terrible, but the live band was fantastic and exceeded expectations! 2. The soap gets stuck to the soap dish after getting wet, making it impossible to pick up. I suggest a soap dish with a textured bottom. 3. The shower water flow knob becomes very slippery and impossible to turn once it gets soap or suds on it. Overall, the good outweighs the bad though!

I took advantage of the National Day holiday to visit Yixing and chose the second most popular hotel in Yixing at the time. I was pleasantly surprised at every turn. Even before checking in, the butler, Gao Yuan, thoughtfully contacted me about my check-in time and other details, recommending various member activities within the hotel. He was always responsive and provided excellent service. I even tried the hotel's boat tour and travel photography services – everything was perfectly arranged. The area around the hotel is like a mini-Nianhua Bay, with restaurants and attractions all within easy reach. The hotel itself is beautifully designed, with stunning views at every turn. The room was fully equipped with thoughtful details: the bed was height-adjustable and offered massage; the bathtub had disposable liners and bath sponges; there was an instant hot water dispenser; and the complimentary eco-friendly tote bag was perfect for photos. …Everything here was convenient and cozy. I really loved this hotel and will definitely stay here again.

The front desk service is warm and thoughtful, the breakfast is delicious and very good, the room facilities are quite complete, clean and tidy, the bedding is very comfortable, and I slept well. The experience is very good and I recommend staying here

Decided to squeeze in a trip before New Year's Day and chose the Yixing Bamboo Sea Suiyuan Valley Hot Spring Hotel. The private hot spring on the balcony is a nice touch, though it was quite cold in the dead of winter, and the tub size is really only suitable for one person! The Bamboo Sea Hot Spring next door was also quite comfortable for a soak. The room itself was very spacious and clean. We even got complimentary snacks and fruit upon check-in, and the staff always greeted us with a smile whenever we entered or left the hotel.

A 5-star hotel in Dingdu Town, the hometown of purple clay pottery. It takes about 400 yen and takes 15 minutes by DIDI from the high-speed rail station. The spacious lobby has purple clay teapots displayed like a museum, and it takes an hour to see them all. On the first floor of the hotel, there are four purple clay teapot specialty shops, so if you don't have time to go out to town, you can purchase quality products within the hotel. The room is very spacious, with a large bathtub and plenty of hot water. The shower booth can be switched between a hand shower and a rainfall shower. The room is equipped with a purple clay stone teapot and tea tray tea set, as well as black and green tea leaves. There is also a thick guidebook of purple clay teapot owners on the writing desk, which will soothe your boredom at night. I entered the room just as the room was being cleaned, and the cleaning ladies were very kind to me, as I don't speak Chinese. I was really impressed. The breakfast is not as good as a foreign 5-star hotel, but it has a sufficient variety and quantity. It is a Chinese hotel, so the only flaw is that they do not provide chilled drinks or omelets. It is not the hotel's fault, but there are few restaurants around the hotel where you can eat alone (for some reason there are many hotpot restaurants). The nearest convenience store is less than 1 km away. That is the only negative point. I stayed in May during the China-United Nations holiday, so it was a little expensive, but normally this luxury hotel is around 7,000 yen, which is a bargain. Of course, I would like to stay again next time. From the window, you can see Huanglong Mountain, which reminds you of the mining of the past. This hotel is a dream hotel for purple clay teapot collectors. If you are a purple clay teapot fan from Japan, you should definitely try staying at this hotel, you will definitely not regret it! PS This hotel has smoking rooms ヽ(^o^)丿

This stay in the train-themed room at Yixing Lanyun Valley was such a delightful surprise! I initially thought it was just a themed design, but it turned out to be a converted real train carriage, complete with tracks and a carriage on the exterior, while the interior was cozy and comfortable. The kids were screaming with excitement! The room was fully equipped, even featuring a balcony and a soaking tub – a truly exceptional experience. The hotel boasts stunning mountain and lake views, nestled against Baima Mountain and facing Yangxian Lake. The scenery is breathtaking; every shot is a masterpiece, far surpassing many scenic spots. We had a wonderful time here with friends. The air was fresh, the environment tranquil, and every corner was picturesque. Perfect for families and vacations, highly recommended! You absolutely must try the train room – it's unforgettable!

The room is clean and tidy, and the price is not high. There is a charging station downstairs, which makes charging very convenient. The front desk staff is also very enthusiastic and introduced many tourist attractions in the surrounding area. The parking lot is also free. In addition, the breakfast is also buffet style, with rich dishes and fresh ingredients. The flowers in the lobby are also very beautiful. Overall, it is a hotel with good value for money, highly recommended to everyone who comes for tourism or business trips!
