Cheap Hotels in Zixing

"Staying at Lan Ting Xu Cheng Yuan is truly experiencing Dongjiang Lake. Our room had a stunning, unobstructed lake view; opening the window revealed serene green hills and clear waters. On sunny days, the lake sparkled, and when it rained, it was beautifully misty. The guesthouse has its own lovely courtyard, perfect for an afternoon tea by the fire, or a leisurely stroll along the lake in the evening – absolutely idyllic. The public areas are designed with understated elegance, featuring a book bar and a home theater, ideal for gathering with friends or enjoying some quiet time alone. It lacks the formality of a hotel and instead offers the warmth of a home and the relaxation of a vacation. This is definitely a hidden gem and a must-stay guesthouse when visiting Dongjiang Lake."

"The itinerary was basic, but the hotel was anything but. We stayed at a truly elegant hotel on the other side of the Xiaodong River. I pondered for a long time what words to describe it. It had a wabi-sabi feel, yet the details were human and warm. It had a traditional style, yet the rooms reflected a technological and modern aesthetic. Finally, I realized this might be the ”quality” we were looking for. It's said that the owner had previously worked as a teacher, then achieved financial independence by starting a tech company. In his 50s, he built a hotel, freed from worldly scrutiny and able to design and operate it to his own taste. In the evening, I sat in the lounge, enjoying a rich cocktail, listening to the graceful guzheng music, and observing the beautiful young women. All my emotional wrinkles were smoothed out, leaving behind a stable core. Not only the food and accommodation, but also the hotel's cultural experience programs were thoughtfully curated. The hotel also has its own dock with direct access to the Xiaodong River Visitor Center on the other side. Riding on a bamboo raft, the river breeze caressed my face, making me feel that life is beautiful and life is precious."

"The guest room was spacious, with two twin beds pushed together and an extra mattress, making the bed exceptionally wide and large, very comfortable to sleep in. The hotel wasn't old; in my opinion, it was the best hotel in town. The lake view from the room was fantastic. I think the best time to view it is 40 minutes before sunrise and two to three hours before sunset. The morning sunlight reflecting off the lake is so bright it's blinding, while artificial light sources at night spoil the ambiance. The hotel breakfast had a wide variety of options, but the taste was just average."

"This time, a few friends agreed to go out for a walk. For this reason, compared with many homestays, they finally decided to park Harajuku. After the stay, the whole process was pleasantly surprised. The hotel was close to the lower reaches of Xiaodongjiang. The location advantage of the river was full when I went out. The luck of this trip was excellent. The fog was foggy in Xiaodongjiang, and the morning mist was covered with the whole river. Water mist flows with the wind, the fisherman casts the net picture like a dream, perfect dream mist over the beautiful scenery of the East River. The front desk service is warm and professional, the procedures are fast, the active science popularization of Xiaodongjiang fog rule, the room layout is reasonable, the dry and wet separation, the floor-to-ceiling glass windows face the river view, and you can enjoy the scenery of the landscape while lying on the bed. The hotel has a quiet and quiet environment, complete leisure areas, full of holiday atmosphere, and the overall price is super high. I really recommend tourists who come to Dongjiang Lake to stay. They have already collected shops and will definitely come again next time."

"I highly recommend this guesthouse by Dongjiang Lake! The overall design is fantastic, and the aesthetic appeal is off the charts. The simple yet elegant decor, combined with a spacious layout, perfectly blends the natural wood textures with the lake views. Every detail shows great care and thought. The large, floor-to-ceiling windows offer a direct view of Dongjiang Lake, allowing you to witness the magical misty scenery of Dongjiang in the morning and enjoy stunning sunsets with a gentle lake breeze in the evening – it’s both relaxing and healing. The room is clean, comfortable, and well-equipped. Staying here feels like living inside a beautiful landscape painting, and it's super convenient for sightseeing. I'll definitely choose this place again on my next visit!"

"For our first night driving through Chenzhou, we chose this guesthouse inside the scenic area. You can drive right to the guesthouse entrance, and the staff will help you with your luggage upstairs. The view upon entering was stunning, overlooking the Xiaodong River; the emerald green water instantly soothed the fatigue of the long drive. The room was very clean and fully equipped, with disposable cups, toilet seat covers, and face towels – a definite plus. However, because it's inside the scenic area, there aren't many places to eat or shop. But you can order in advance and have the restaurant cook for you; the food is just as good as what you'd find elsewhere. The No. 4 viewing area is only a few hundred meters away, and a short walk down the path you can see fishermen casting their nets. Overall, a very satisfying stay."

"Breakfast is simple, with two types of buns, corn, sweet potatoes, milk, or coffee. Bananas, grapes, and cherry tomatoes are also delivered to your room and can be enjoyed on the small terrace while enjoying the view. It's super chilled! 1️⃣ Facilities: 10 minutes' drive from the Bailang Scenic Area and 100 meters from the nearest farm where we had dinner. Private parking is available, and the B&B entrance is right there. 2️⃣ Stay Experience: You'll have your own butler, who will call you the morning of your arrival date to ask what time you'll arrive. They'll also add you on WeChat in advance to send you maps, directions, and travel guides. If it's cold, they'll prepare a charcoal fire in the living room for warmth, thoughtfully turn on the air conditioning in advance, and even help with luggage! The service was excellent! 3️⃣ Food: Very close to the Bailang service point, where there are plenty of options. 4️⃣ Attractions: Located within the Dongjiang Lake Scenic Area, you can drive or rent an electric scooter to explore the entire Bailang area. You'll see red metasequoia trees, yellow cosmos flowers, and the vast, picturesque lake, making it a perfect weekend getaway. The high-speed rail station is a 1.5-hour drive, Gaoyiling Scenic Area is a 1-hour drive, and Xiaodongjiang is a 0.5-hour drive. 5️⃣ Pros: The window view is unbeatable! You can enjoy the beauty of Dongjiang Lake without even leaving the house! And the value for money is excellent. Highly recommended!"

"The room is comfortable, fully equipped, clean and tidy, and the service is very good. The nearby environment is quite good for people who drive trams. There is a charging station behind the hotel, which is very convenient. The hotel only takes about 10 minutes to Xiaodongjiang Scenic Area and about 20 minutes to Gaoyiling. It is highly recommended."

"Right after parking at the guesthouse's back entrance, even before I stepped into the room, I caught a glimpse of the shimmering river nearby. A gentle breeze, carrying the fresh scent of the water, instantly swept away the fatigue from my journey. When I checked in, the owner smiled and told me the room had a direct river view. The moment I opened the door, I was completely stunned—the floor-to-ceiling window offered a full panoramic view of the river. The river was wide, and I could take in the lush greenery and walkways on both banks, even the distant bridge was clearly visible. I didn't even need to step outside; I could simply sit on the sofa by the window and enjoy the entire river view. The room also had a balcony. In the evening, I watched the sunset slowly dip into the river, painting the water in warm golden hues. At night, I saw the lights on the opposite bank gradually illuminate, creating a particularly soothing night scene with the sparkling water. It's truly a wonderful place for relaxation and unwinding!"

"I've had this B&B saved for ages, and finally got the chance to visit Chenzhou with friends. It was super clean, and they even provided toilet seat covers. Plenty of power outlets too. They turned on the heating for us in advance, which was a really thoughtful touch. The housekeepers were all great and answered every question we had. The 'Shazhufen' (Pork Killing Noodles) for breakfast were also very fresh. The overall design of the B&B is minimalist and comfortable; you can tell the designer has good taste, vision, and put a lot of thought into it. The view from the window of this suite is also excellent; seeing the morning light was very pleasant. It's less than a five-minute taxi ride to Dongjiang Lake Scenic Area, and there are many good restaurants nearby. The only thing is, it would be even better if the projector came with a screen."
