On a summer afternoon, with the sun shining on us, several of us old friends all yearned for a trip away from the hustle and bustle of the city. We planned to take the children and go to a place where we could find peace of mind. There should be a peaceful greenery there, which would allow us to temporarily forget the troubles of the world, and there should also be enough space for adults and children to freely enjoy each other's company. Traditional hotels often fail to meet our needs, and those homestays, although they have the taste of home, often hide various inconveniences. Fortunately, we found Ninghai Anlan Hotel, which almost perfectly met our expectations.
This place is completely different from traditional hotels. It is located on a land embraced by mountains, and the buildings are arranged in a scattered way-the lobby, the waterside, the mountain-facing villas, they are like notes scattered in the valley, scattered and distributed in an orderly manner. When we checked in, we took a minibus and an electric car to shuttle through this green ocean. This was a small journey and a must-go for a secluded life. (By the way, if you are a group of friends, it is best to book the same or adjacent rooms.)
We had quite a group, and there were both Wangshan two-bedroom villas suitable for gatherings and more private one-bedroom villas. No matter which room type, the space, design and maintenance of the room were very satisfactory. Especially the two-bedroom villa, its simple style contains delicate and careful thoughts. Regarding this, please forgive my weak words, please look at the pictures.
One thing I particularly like is that although the two bedrooms on the second floor have different bed styles, they are almost the same size, and each is equipped with a separate high-quality bathroom and cloakroom, as well as a large bathtub with hot spring water. This design ensures that even if friends live in the same room, they will not disturb each other, and everyone can enjoy enough private space.
When it comes to service, Ninghai Anlan's performance really exceeded our expectations. During the double peak period of the summer weekend, when the basic rooms were fully booked, all service requests were responded to quickly - this is rare in any busy hotel. Friends, please imagine how many complicated needs a gathering of more than ten people for two consecutive days would have: from extra towels to late-night ice cubes, from emergency reservations to temporary room adjustments... However, here, all have been solved. The service team at every link is natural and friendly, and this naturalness is particularly important. The enthusiasm of some hotels is too artificial, which makes people feel uncomfortable; but the service here makes people feel as kind as spring breeze. Special thanks to Manager Ying, Hailey and WeChat housekeeper Amy who met in the lobby.
There are also many highlights in other projects. The weekend breakfast is good. Whether the Western breakfast is attentive or not, I usually judge whether the egg stall is willing to make Benedict eggs, and this hotel does this. In addition, there is the local specialty walnut egg soup, freshly baked and paired with waffles, and freshly squeezed fruit and vegetable juice, which can satisfy friends' Chinese stomachs and soothe Western stomachs. Japanese hot springs are another project worth experiencing. In the summer, I thought it would be stuffy to soak in hot springs, but it was just right. After dinner, go to the outdoor hot spring area. You won't feel hot when you soak in the water, and you won't feel cold when you stand up. Looking up at the maple tree in the atrium, the whole person seems to be immersed in a kind of tranquility, and the noisy day is washed away.
The summer daytime is too hot, but if you can get up early and come to the large outdoor terrace at around 5 o'clock, you will find that there is a whole new world waiting for you there. At that time, the sun in the distance is about to poke its head out, revealing the first ray of golden light, and the clouds and mist are slowly flowing in the valley, decorating the green mountains very pleasing to the eye. You can find a comfortable place to sit here, holding a cup of hot coffee in your hand, and quietly inhaling the natural warm air. At this moment, everything around becomes unusually quiet, and only the occasional bird song breaks the silence. This experience is like walking into a quiet dream, making people temporarily forget the hustle and bustle of the world and naturally improve their mood.
