"Despite the many 'avoid this place' posts online, my overall experience from check-in to check-out was fantastic, even exceeding my expectations! For families with kids in the Jiangsu-Zhejiang-Shanghai region, Club Med Longwu is an absolute must-go. My recent stay with my child was wonderful; it truly takes the stress out of parenting, and both adults and children had a great time. The resort's architecture features Song-style white walls and dark tiles, nestled amidst tea mountains. The environment is serene, the air is incredibly fresh, and beautiful Jiangnan garden views are everywhere, making it perfect for photos. The rooms are spacious, even the basic room type. The front desk was very thoughtful and upgraded our room to one with a scenic balcony, offering incredibly soothing views. Room details are very family-friendly, with kids' slippers, children's toiletries, and clean, hygienic wooden floors, which is great for allergic babies. The bedding is soft and comfortable, ensuring a good night's sleep. The most significant aspect is the all-inclusive package, covering food, accommodation, and activities. Our schedule was a bit tight this time, but I look forward to fully experiencing it on our next visit. The breakfast buffet offers a rich variety of Chinese and Western dishes, along with Hangzhou-style tea snacks. There's a dedicated children's dining area with all sorts of snacks, fruits, and desserts that kids love. Afternoon tea, snacks, and drinks are available anytime, so you don't have to worry about where to eat for three meals a day. The park's recreational facilities are comprehensive, so there's no need to worry about rain.

In the evenings, there are G.O dance and song shows and interactive family parties, where both adults and children can participate, creating a fantastic atmosphere with different fun experiences every night. Check-in and check-out at the front desk were efficient, and responses to issues were prompt. The overall service was attentive and thoughtful. Special thanks to the concierge for the welcome gift, which included an adorable raccoon plush toy and a Baby Care infant care set. This resort is perfect for both short weekend getaways with kids and longer family trips during holidays. Adults can relax, and children can have a blast. It offers excellent value for money and has already been added to our family's repurchase list. I highly recommend it to all families! "

Haoyi Hotel(Hangzhou West Lake Lakeside Southern Song Imperial Street store) ★★★★
"Great location! Staff is very helpful! The bed was super comfortable and the sheets were clean. Nice modern clean bathroom, with great water pressure, hot water almost instant, and the shampoo/ conditioner / showergel provided was a very nice brand. Nice views over the old town. The one thing I didn’t like was the coffee. Make sure you give the taxi driver the address on GuangFu Road, to avoid dragging your suitcases across the uneven surface of the old town alley. Breakfast provided in the basement, buffet style, no other option, which mostly caters to Asian visitors, but you will find boiled eggs, croissants / donuts and fruit too! Do have an ice latte at Perfect Cafe if you visit, definitely recommended!"

"I previously stayed here mainly for the Ziwei Restaurant, so I didn't have high expectations for the room. This time, I stayed in Building 8 and found the room facilities to be quite good, newer than I remembered. The gym was also nice, perhaps it's been recently renovated. The location is excellent if you're not looking for major tourist attractions and prefer a relaxing stroll."
