Siman River View Hotel (Wuyi Square Chaozong Street Branch)

The room was spacious with large, clear floor-to-ceiling windows offering a nice view. The cleanliness was impressive; even the shelves and the balcony's table and chairs were spotless. They've also put soundproofing strips under the room door, which worked well (though nothing can block out the sound of gongs and drums outside the window in the morning!). The hotel is located right by the Xiang River. To get to your room, it's easiest to take elevators 6 or 7 (the outside of the building doesn't have very clear signage, so I got a little lost finding it the first time). It's about a 10-minute walk to Peiyuan Bridge metro station and 13 minutes to Wenchanggge metro station. There are plenty of restaurants in the surrounding alleys, with many options for noodles in the morning, and lively barbecue and crayfish spots in the evening.

The room was great, very spacious and comfortable. It's close to Wuyi Square, making it easy to get around. The front desk staff, especially the ladies, were really nice and enthusiastic, even helping us with our luggage. I had a wonderful time in Changsha this trip! I didn't take any pictures of the hotel environment, so here's a photo of some food I bought from Jinli Gate. Hope everyone has a great time too!

The river view room was amazing, with an unobstructed view. The service was excellent. I added the owner's WeChat upon check-in, and they were incredibly responsive to any questions, addressing them immediately. They even thoughtfully informed us about the light show, though unfortunately, we missed it due to our early starts and late returns. There's a washer and dryer downstairs. On our first night, we came back after 10 PM, and I took our clothes down around 11 PM. The front desk staff helped me with the laundry and even told me I didn't need to wait; I could just pick them up after I woke up the next day. Fantastic service!

Traveling to Changsha, I was so glad I booked this hidden gem of a guesthouse on Trip.com. Its prime riverside location on a high floor offers absolutely stunning views; during the day, you see the sparkling river, and at night, the city lights across the bank. I'm a light sleeper, and before coming, I was worried about poor soundproofing in guesthouses, but my stay was completely free of noise disturbance. A special thank you to the lovely manager, Ms. Hu, for her warm and thoughtful service. She not only prepared alternative room options for me beforehand but also meticulously wrote down a list of restaurants popular with locals in the city and recommended souvenirs to take home. What really stood out was how Ms. Hu and Mr. Zeng from Siman (the guesthouse name) were at the front desk practically day and night, showing immense dedication and friendliness. They even proactively helped with laundry and drying, and folded it neatly before returning it. With beautiful scenery, excellent service, and a great price, our short three-day stay at Siman added wonderful memories to our Changsha trip. Thank you to both Ms. Hu and Mr. Zeng!

The views are fantastic and the location is super convenient with lots of street food downstairs. The front desk staff were very patient and provided excellent service! 👍🏻
