Boutique Hotels in Deqing

Ever since Naked Retreats opened in Moganshan, I've been following their properties there. Finally getting to stay at Naked Castle felt like fulfilling a long-held wish. And as expected, it was a pleasant surprise and simply stunning! It's mysterious yet accessible, feeling secluded without being too far from civilization. You can switch between the mountain tranquility and the outside world in just half an hour. I'll definitely be back.

The hotel's location is excellent, very close to Yinshan Street and Jianchi Lake. The multiple terraces offer different views, and you can watch the sunrise directly opposite Naked Castle. The breakfast is good; though not a huge variety, everything is quite tasty. The only thing is to make sure to ask about the room's orientation and view when booking, as it can be fully booked during holidays, making last-minute changes difficult.

This is definitely a guesthouse I'll be returning to. It's incredibly pet-friendly; I forgot dog food and pee pads, and the front desk provided them for me. Since it was off-season, they upgraded my room. The room was huge, beautifully designed, and felt very secure, plus it had a large, comfortable balcony. I'd seen reviews saying the pool water was dirty and the playground slide was broken, but I found that wasn't the case at all. The pool water was very clean, just had a few fallen leaves. The playground slide was quite fun, and the tire for the slide was new, not broken. You can even bring your dog to play there. There are bicycles and electric scooters available at the guesthouse entrance. Riding around was quite enjoyable. It's also very convenient for dining and exploring nearby areas, with Yu Village just a 10-15 minute drive away. The guesthouse also has its own restaurant. We arrived in the afternoon when the chef was sleeping, but they specially woke him up to make us noodles. The service is truly exceptional.

This was my first trip to Moganshan, and choosing Yinhuawu certainly didn't disappoint. The guesthouse is tucked away in a quiet mountain hollow, with a bamboo forest right outside the window, and the air is exceptionally fresh and clean. The pool isn't huge, but the water is spotless. Taking a dip in the afternoon was just perfect, neither too cold nor too hot. The rooms were tidy and well-maintained, the bed linens fresh, and the bathroom's wet/dry separation was very well executed. The owners are a lovely, down-to-earth couple. The morning porridge is freshly cooked and served with local eggs, making for a truly comforting meal. While it's a bit of a distance from the main attractions, a 10-15 minute drive gets you there. Nights are incredibly peaceful, making it perfect for anyone looking for some quiet relaxation.

Hidden experience! The homestay is hidden in the natural village, and there is a stream in front of the door. It is the largest stream in Mogan Mountain. It’s super quiet away from the noise here. I was awakened by the chicken in the morning. The window is an infinity pool, private terrace, and pool. The design of the homestay comes from the master of the Chinese Academy of Fine Arts. The name ”Xiyin” comes from a poem by Xu Yu, a poet from the Tang Dynasty. ”Xiyin”, the relaxation of the paradise holiday is full, and will come again~
