Yingde Hotels with balcony

The ultimate vacation spot near Guangzhou and Shenzhen! This standalone villa boasts its own pool and private hot spring, with three floors spacious enough for a whole family. The butler was incredibly attentive, calling us right after we booked to discuss our needs. Upon arrival, he gave us a tour and introduced all the activities. When we checked out, he even helped us load our luggage into the car. Waking up to the view of lush green rice paddies and falling asleep to the sound of rain was incredibly therapeutic. The infinity pool on the fourth floor offers direct views of the sunset over the peaks – it was so beautiful I didn't want to get out. You can pet the two adorable cats at the hotel as much as you like. The complimentary tickets to the tea garden and campsite were really useful; the campsite also has a few very 'banned' looking but playful dogs! Two days here was just perfect. I'll definitely be back!

This famous hotel is the best inn I have ever stayed in. Because the traffic jam came late, I didn’t expect the boss to wait for us at the front desk. I also upgraded our room for free. The most surprising thing is that there are moon cakes and sugar water for us. The lobby manager and the boss are very friendly. I gave my baby a lot of food and balloons, the whole feeling is very good, really worth recommending! (Thank you the innkeeper and staff for waiting for us so late ～)

I had a great experience! We booked both the 'Ant Nest' and a standard twin room, and each had its own unique charm. The 'Ant Nest' was really fun; if you're traveling with kids, they can sleep on the sofa. The twin room was very comfortable and spacious. The guesthouse itself is quite smart/automated, and the views are absolutely top-notch. It's perfect for taking lots of photos, and watching the sunset was beautiful. The breakfast was quite tasty too! I'd definitely come back for a second stay.

What an amazing place with amazing staff who made the experience that much better. The rooms were everything we could ask for, modern and very clean with great amenities. The private hot spring alone is absolutely worth visiting too. The surrounding area is beautiful too with lots to see and do but would definitely need to rent a car as some things are far away. The staff were incredible in every way. Before our stay I asked one of the staff members called Min if she could order flowers for a special occasion and she did so without hesitation and placed them in the room upon our arrival.She was so helpful and kind throughout the whole stay, telling us the best places to visit and restaurant to go out. She even went as far as helping us order dinner at the local restaurant when we were struggling too due to our lack of speaking Chinese. The breakfast was also delicious as well and the coffee shop where it is served has great coffee and lovely pastries. I couldn’t recommend this place more for a nice weekend away in nature.

Amazing overall! Style, taste, and service were all top-notch! Excellent value for money! 1. We brought our dog, and they provided a high-quality dog bed, toys, deodorant, wet wipes, and even poop bags – so thoughtful! 2. They decorated the room for our dog's birthday for free, which was incredibly heartwarming! 3. They gave us an extra breakfast, both generous and attentive! 4. They personally guided us to our room, explaining the hotel layout and functional areas along the way – truly dedicated service! 5. KTV room, billiards room, kids' play area, private hot spring, meditation room, in-room projector – all available for free on demand… Such great value… 6. The common areas looked exactly like the photos, perfect for pictures, and even had a free Nintendo Switch to play. 7. They have collaborations with local cultural and creative brands, and intangible heritage experiences, offering many discounts… Highly recommend, I'd definitely go back again!!!

Extremely satisfied! The service was exceptional from start to finish. Even before arriving, they answered all my questions thoughtfully. During my stay, they were incredibly responsive to every request, and I even received a parting gift when I checked out. The room facilities were fantastic, and because there weren't many guests, they proactively upgraded my room. The room was well-equipped, and the guesthouse's scenery was absolutely beautiful – it felt like I was living right inside a picturesque landscape. They also provided complimentary tickets to the tea plantation, which is very close by, though I'd say it's an optional visit. It's also not far from the Heshun Karst Cave, so you can easily stop by if you're in the area. Plus, there's passion fruit picking right outside, and the breakfast was delicious!

The rooms are small but clean and tidy, and there's a shuttle bus service/welcome gift! ^_^ There's only one restaurant, and takeout is practically nonexistent! The snacks served are quite oily. Driving is recommended! **Fenglin Xiaozhen Ticket for 2 Adults + 1 Child (under 1.2 meters):** Included in the room package; the entire scenic area is relatively flat and open! All activities are chargeable (mini-train/go-karting/hot air balloon/gliding/cable car/off-road vehicles, etc.). Some free activities are a bit desolate (pet park) or good for taking photos. In spring, there are rapeseed flowers/cherry blossom forests, and in summer, there are lotus ponds—it sounds like a beautiful scene! **South China Night Pearl for 2 Adults + 1 Child:** Free activity **Red History and Culture Experience for 2 Adults + 1 Child:** Free activity Nearby attractions include Xiaohuashan Via Ferrata climbing/Dongtian Wonderland. **Recommended itinerary:** 2-3 days for a single scenic area, 3-4 days for nearby attractions. Would love to come back! It caters to all ages, from thrilling activities and Instagrammable spots to a relaxed lifestyle and family-friendly options – highly recommended!

An incredible gem of a boutique hotel, run by a friendly host who anticipates and caters to your needs. This hotel is nestled between idyllic hills and farms, and a 20min stroll (or rent their bikes at 60rmb/day) to HuangHua where there’re great restaurants and supermarkets. It was exactly what we did not know we were looking for in a short getaway from HK to Yingde. The hotel itself is clean and modern, and the food was a pleasant surprise. Being foreigners used to western-style breakfast, we were initially apprehensive while booking, but the farm-to-table, home-cooked breakfast turned out to be absolutely delicious, such that we found ourselves looking forward to it on our second morning. We felt like we lucked out with this accommodation choice, as just within walking distance from the hotel, the host brought us to local hiking trails with quite the view (tip: go at sunrise, and if conditions are right you’ll get to see the “sea of clouds”), a climbing crag and an amazing cave you’ll have to yourself. The host, who turned out to be quite the explorer and adrenaline junkie in her younger years, happily took us to them, also showing us photo spots along the way. But perhaps the best kept secret of this hotel is hinted in its name itself. From its roof terrace, we saw shooting stars fly by above the glow of the region’s famous karst.

Our two days at T Manor Tent camp were very enjoyable, with lots of peaceful walks through the plantation and some spectacular sunsets seen from our glamping tent and from the viewing area at the top of the hill which looks out over the karst-studded landscape. Our tent was located down below which was less spectacular than the tents on the hill but also less exposed and a good option. We had great service from the T Manor staff, who set up a WeChat thread so my husband could communicate with us easily as most of them didn’t speak English. One exception was Allen, a tour guide from Taiwan who was very friendly and helpful, especially on the last day when he helped organise a car to take us to our next accommodation a few hours drive away. A special mention must also go to the restaurant staff, who served us a range of tea-infused dishes and patiently went along with our many queries (our daughter is coeliac which made eating in China a little complicated). Thank you T Manor for a serene and friendly experience, we particularly loved listening to the sound of the bees pollinating the tea bushes as we eat on the veranda of our tent and looked out over the plantation.

The room was spacious and decent, though the mattress was a bit too soft for my liking. The views, however, were absolutely stunning! We had dinner at the hotel; the price was reasonable, but the taste was rather plain, reminiscent of simple home-cooked food. On the bright side, the breakfast soy milk was delicious, and the fruit quality was excellent. This place is truly perfect for unwinding and contemplation; it's very therapeutic. The drive up the mountain was a bit nerve-wracking the first time, as we drove slowly, cautious of oncoming cars. By the time we drove back down, we'd adapted and felt much more comfortable. It rained throughout our two-day stay, but enjoying the rainy scenery was actually quite pleasant. We'd love to come back when the weather is clear to catch the sunset. Unfortunately, due to the heavy rain, we couldn't make use of the complimentary scenic area tickets.
