Shuiyong Jinjiang Hotel

Exceptional Homestay Experience in Zhangjiajie National Forest Park Rating: 5.0 I recently stayed at this homestay in Zhangjiajie National Forest Park with my sister and brother-in-law for 4 nights. As visitors with minimal Mandarin skills, we were delighted by the warm hospitality and personalized services provided by our host. From the moment we arrived, the host made us feel at home, serving us homebrew tea and homegrown organic peanuts! They went above and beyond to ensure our trip was enjoyable and stress-free. As DIY visitors, we didn’t book any tours. The host offered great guidance after learning about our wishes. They helped us purchase admission tickets and organized transportation for us every day. This made our daily trips to the national park and other tourist spots incredibly easy and convenient. The place is quiet and absolutely beautiful. We were surrounded by the mountains. The building materials are of superb quality and the insulation is very good, despite the cold weather. The bedding was very comfortable and we all had a good night's sleep. The highlight of our stay was truly these tailor-made services, providing us with recommendations for daily trips, food, and transportation. We enjoyed plenty of delicious healthy food, including a variety of fruits such as grapes, oranges, pomelo, to name but a few! The vegetables and some fruits (like kumquats, figs) were organically grown on the farm. Every meal was homemade and tasty. We even got to try their own specialty tea Mei Cha (莓茶), which was a delightful experience. On a particularly rainy day, the host proactively brought umbrellas to us, ensuring we stayed dry and comfortable. At some of the tourist spots, guides had been arranged to ensure our smooth entry. These thoughtful gestures added a personal touch to our experience, making us feel genuinely cared for. Overall, the owner’s dedication to making our trip enjoyable and successful was evident in every aspect of our stay. I highly recommend this homestay to anyone visiting Zhangjiajie National Forest Park. The personal touch, yummy organic food, and convenient transportation made our trip unforgettable. Thank you to the host for an exceptional experience!

Really wonderful experience. Super homely.

Hunan Hospitality at its best! We had a splendid stay at Shuiyong Jinjiang Hotel. The sweeping mountain views from the terraces, stylish and spotless rooms, gardens full of flowers and hummingbirds, evening walks to pick corn, peanuts, and melons, and delicious homecooked meals (including plenty of fresh veggies and fruit, steaming hot wonton soup and noodles for breakfast) made our stay extremely memorable and relaxing. The staff was extremely kind, generous, and helpful, arranging our pickup from the airport and trips to the various attractions (the “Avatar Mountains” are basically just next door), suggesting different itineraries for each day, informing us of the constantly changing COVID regulations, driving us to do our COVID tests, etc. We REALLY felt like family right away. The whole place is very child-friendly too, and our two young kids loved exploring the area. We can’t wait to go back again!

名宿深藏翠岫邊，柴門犬吠鳥談天。 繞籬瓜豆疑迎客，滿院椿萱似昔年。 炊煙起處親呼飯，土菜香時月墜肩。 醉話桑麻燈影裏，一宵清夢伴雲眠。 嚮往的田園生活，家人的感覺，菜都是老闆家自己種的，衹有簡單的葱姜蒜，吃的食物的本味，沒有科技與狠活，吃完身體都舒暢了。早起的清晨，在大自然面前其他所有都不算事。 鄰居家的大黃狗竟然打不過主人家的貓，我也是服了。

每年旅遊都出去住的酒店，這次選擇住名宿，很好的體驗！老闆很熱情，這次住的是湘西吊腳樓風格，環境很好，四周環山，景色很好，安靜又安全，還有露天游泳池，小孩子玩得很開心，還可以帶着小朋友釣魚釣蝦喂貓，特別適合帶小孩的家庭！吃的都是老闆家自養自種的食物，土雞味道很好，臘豬腳也很好吃，三下鍋搞的口味的，可以根據我們口味調整，食材很好，乾淨放心，院子吃飯的地方可以賞風景，旅遊就是要選擇這樣環境好，安靜放鬆的地方，而且去張家界景區也不遠，二十來分鐘都可以到，給這家民宿滿分💯好評！

È stata un oasi di pace dove tornare la sera dopo la confusione delle 'scenic area' di Zhanjiajie. Personale gentilissimo, piscina all'aperto pulita, birre fresche e possibilità di pranzare e cenare con cibo locale tradizionale e ingredienti coltivati/allevati localmente.
