Shiyan Spa Hotels

The price was absolutely worth it! The room was bright, spacious, and well-ventilated, with simple yet tasteful decor. The bathroom had a great dry/wet separation. The staff were polite and attentive, and the breakfast offered a wide, fresh selection. Overall, it was a very relaxing and comfortable stay – it's truly rare to find such an experience at this price point! A special shout-out to the kind, attentive, and very professional young lady with glasses at the front desk!

This hotel/retreat is an incredibly special place, and I feel so grateful to have come across it in my travels, as it will hold a special place in my memory! I have a strong feeling that I will be back (possibly many times!) in the future. I cannot say enough good things about it, whether it be the beautiful architectural design of the buildings and landscaping of the property, the gorgeous cafe, the zen-like room aesthetic, the calm and nourishing atmosphere of the whole place, the incredibly kind staff, and the nourishing and delicious food (which is made with great attention and care paid to the ingredients (most of which are grown on the farm), and their healing principles according to the elements and Chinese medicine nutrition)). There are free evening healing offerings too, including sound healing, card reading, and other thing, which bring guests together to experience collectively as well, in a beautiful retreat center room. The cafe/lobby building is such a pretty and welcoming space, one could easily spend hours enjoying a conversation or reading a book, or petting one of the many adorable cats that roam the property. Even walking along the meandering path to the hotel from the main road is a beautiful experience, winding through tea fields in this magical valley at the base of steep mountains surrounding it. I have stayed at a number of hotels in China during my travels, but this place is by far my favorite of all of them, for its authentic feel and heartfelt warmth. It truly is a uniquely powerful place for healing and restoration, nestled in such a picturesque, quiet hillside of Wudang mountain!!

Of course, you have to live comfortably in a hotel. Just entering this hotel gives people a very warm feeling. I came on a business trip with my colleagues and set the wrong big bed room. The front desk lady gave me a free upgrade to a deluxe standard room. The check-in was super quick. I also introduced the surrounding food and play guides. The room was really clean, the sheets and bedding were refreshing, the lighting was superb, and the curtains were opened to see a good view. Come to the gym at night, the hot water in the bathroom is stable, and the toiletries are comfortable. The breakfast is rich in variety and tastes great. In short, the experience is full. I will choose here next time!

Verdict: Amazing! Let me start with the story: The coffee downstairs is amazing. Facilities: New hotel, the water from the taps is very soft (not watery, just gentle). Cleanliness: Very clean! A Virgo with a fascination with cleanliness would love this! Environment: Located on the Wudang Mountainside, with a large terrace for watching the sunrise. Service: Let's put it this way: I didn't plan my itinerary and time well enough for three visits over two days. There was no shuttle service to the scenic area, but the hotel arranged a car to pick me up through their personal connections. I was so touched. I wanted to watch the sunrise early in the morning, and even after discussing it with them, they still had coffee ready for me at 3 a.m.! ”Tai Chi Experience”: A must-try when visiting Wudang! Oh, and they even upgraded my room.

The owner is extremely friendly and enthusiastic!
