Amanfayun Hotels in Hangzhou

Amanfayun

"Highest quality of service. The staff priority is simply “You” WheChat majordome was very efficient with real capacity to discuss with you. All activities provided were absolutely fine. from sculpting to bath tub… The highlight was probably the singing bowls which were a balm for the soul and the body. Tea degustation was also culturally relevant, while remaining decontracted. Top travel organisation too. You get the same feeling of elegance, decontraction and finesse in the restaurant “Hangzhou House”. The numerous temples (Lingyin, gigantic and profuse!!!) and the tea fields of Longjing give also a great value to the place. The old villa where we spend our night was also special, spacioud, authentic and very well equipped: solid brass bath fittings.!!!) All contributed to a kind of exclusivity."

Four Seasons Hotel Hangzhou at Hangzhou Centre Hotels in Hangzhou

Four Seasons Hotel Hangzhou at Hangzhou Centre

"This hotel boasts an excellent location, right next to Hangzhou Centre, and very close to Hangzhou Tower and the newly opened Hang Lung Plaza. I've always loved Four Seasons hotels, even when I was abroad, and this one at Hangzhou Centre did not disappoint; the experience was fantastic. Check-in is on the 10th floor, and then you take a separate guest elevator up to your room. It's super convenient that food deliveries can be brought right to your door. The service was great, and the bedding was incredibly comfortable. The body lotion smelled amazing too, which made me happy!"

Hangzhou West Lake Orchid Retreat Resort Hotel (Wulin Square, Xianingqiao Metro Station Branch)

The breakfast offered a wide variety of dishes that were light and perfect for older palates. The front desk staff patiently answered our questions about sightseeing routes. The surrounding area is quiet and pleasant, allowing us to rest well after exploring West Lake. Our whole family was very satisfied with this stay! 👏"

"My stay here was a pleasant surprise! Check-in at the front desk was super fast, and the hotel thoughtfully provided fruit, snacks, and drinks, which was a really nice touch. The room was spotless, and the bedding was very comfortable. Whenever I needed anything from housekeeping, they responded quickly. The front desk manager left a strong impression on me; their communication was particularly polite and patient, and they handled all my questions expertly. It's clear the entire team pays great attention to detail – it's not just a superficial courtesy, but genuine consideration for their guests. I had a very comfortable stay and will definitely choose this place again next time!"

"The room has really gone downhill since my last stay. The shower caddy in the bathroom was moldy and black, the air conditioning wasn't cooling properly, and there was a musty smell under the AC unit near the bathroom door. Even the ceiling lights were grimy. I used to give this place great reviews, but this time I'm really disappointed."

"The hotel's location is excellent, just a few minutes from T4, which is incredibly convenient. The sofa bed is a great addition for families with two children. For early morning flights, they pack breakfast to go, which is a thoughtful touch. Perhaps because the hotel is so busy, the front desk staff seemed impatient during check-in. After checking out, I received a call asking about my stay and encouraging me to leave a positive review, which I was initially happy to do. However, when they asked me to specifically mention the name of the staff member, I declined."
