The best decision I made on this trip was choosing this B&B! It completely exceeded my expectations; the actual place is even better than the photos. The location is very convenient, offering a quiet escape despite being in a bustling area. Every detail in the room showcases the owner's taste, from the quality of the furniture to the lighting of the bedside lamp, everything felt incredibly comfortable. The bedding was also very carefully chosen; even I, someone who usually has trouble sleeping in new places, slept wonderfully. Plus, the entire B&B is very photogenic; every snap turns out like a magazine shot. The owner (landlady) and the front desk staff were incredibly nice, everyone at the B&B was friendly and welcoming! The breakfast at the B&B was especially delicious, and you can also order lunch and dinner there. They offer noodles and home-cooked dishes, prepared by local aunties, and they're much tastier than what you'd find in outside restaurants – absolutely no regrets. I highly recommend this place to anyone who values quality accommodation!

Out of all the hotels we stayed at during this trip, this was my child's favorite. The staff were very friendly, there were books to read in the lobby, and even a cat to pet! We could also grab a chair and sit by the window to watch the sunset, truly a rare slow-paced experience. The fixtures and bedding were all high quality.

We're delighted that your enthusiastic service has been appreciated, and that our guesthouse has stood out among many options to become your child's favorite – it's our greatest honor.

I had a truly exceptional experience at this beautifully designed, classy hotel.

The vibe here is truly special! The owners put so much heart into running this place. The rooms are spotless, and the moment you step in, you just feel completely relaxed. In the evenings, they invite everyone to the lobby for tea and conversation, serving delicious tea snacks and fresh fruit. For two days straight, they gave complimentary special drinks to the kids and homemade millet wine to the adults. It felt just like visiting a friend's house, and the kids absolutely loved it. All the food was fantastic – purely handmade and organic. The water they served was mountain spring water, and the air was so fresh. On our last day, we joined the owner for a sunrise trip to the tea mountain. The sea of clouds was breathtaking, and it was wonderfully cool. I highly recommend this guesthouse for its warm hospitality. I'll definitely be back with my girlfriends next time. Wishing the owners all the best with their business, and a big thank you to all the staff for two days of thoughtful care! ^_^

Response from Property: Dear Guest, thank you so much for your five-star review and heartfelt sharing! Reading your words warmed our hearts! We've always run this mountain tea garden guesthouse with care, hoping that every guest who travels from afar can unwind and feel as comfortable and at ease as if visiting a friend's home. Preparing spring water, handmade snacks, and homemade millet wine daily is our simple way of showing our appreciation; we also specially prepare drinks for children, wanting to take care of every member of our group. We were especially happy to accompany you on your early morning trip to the tea mountains, witnessing the magnificent sunrise over the sea of ​​clouds and the unique healing beauty of the mountains. We are delighted that the clean and comfortable rooms, the fresh and pure mountain air, and the authentic handmade home-style dishes allowed you and your children to spend a relaxing and enjoyable two days. Seeing that you're looking forward to the fireplace in winter and planning to visit again with your friends, we are filled with anticipation! The mountain mists are even gentler in autumn and winter, creating a unique atmosphere for brewing tea around a fireplace. We will have a warm stove and hot tea ready for you. Thank you so much for recognizing our thoughtful and attentive service; your affirmation is our greatest motivation to continue our dedication. Looking forward to seeing you again at the tea mountain. Wishing you all the best and many wonderful things to come – Fangfei offers tea 🍵

I'd been longing to visit Huangshan for ages, and this time, my dream finally came true. I arrived a day early, planning to head straight up the mountain, but I hadn't checked the cable car operating hours. So, I had to find last-minute accommodation at the foot of the mountain. Tangkou Town was packed with guesthouses along the streets, which felt a bit overwhelming. I decided to search for B&Bs on the outskirts of town instead and immediately fell in love with this one. The pure white walls and bright, clean rooms gave the whole place a gentle, relaxing vibe. Many guests praised the auntie's cooking, so I booked it right away. My stay certainly didn't disappoint; both dinners were absolutely delicious – we polished off every dish. The taste was truly amazing. The room was spacious and grand, and the owner even kindly upgraded my room for free. Opening the window, I faced a vast bamboo forest. The evening breeze rustled through the bamboo shoots, and sleeping to the gentle sound of the bamboo was incredibly soothing. There's a path behind the B&B that leads directly to the mountain entrance, and they even have their own tea garden. Before dinner, the owner unhurriedly set up a tea ceremony, explaining the three famous Huangshan teas in detail: the fresh and tender Huangshan Maofeng, the straight and long-lasting Taiping Houkui, and the mellow and rich Qimen Black Tea. There was also the unique Kuibai – made from Houkui fresh leaves using Qimen black tea processing, offering a distinctive flavor. My favorite quote from the owner was: 'When guests arrive, I wholeheartedly take care of travelers from all directions; when I have free time, I make sure to enjoy myself.' No rushed itineraries, no crowds – just stealing a half-day of tranquility at this bamboo forest teahouse. This is the beauty of slowing down at the foot of the mountain.

Response from Property: Thank you so much for writing such a thoughtful and heartfelt review. Reading it word by word filled me with warmth. I'm so glad we were a pleasant surprise during your last-minute accommodation search, adding a relaxing and healing touch to your Huangshan trip. Knowing the bustling and noisy streets of Tangkou, we deliberately nestled our guesthouse deep in the bamboo forest, creating simple and clean white rooms to provide a quiet haven for travelers. Our greatest wish is to offer guests a tranquil experience where they can open their windows to a view of the endless bamboo forest and drift off to sleep to the gentle breeze rustling through the bamboo leaves. The complimentary room upgrade is just a small token of our appreciation; we simply hope you feel comfortable and at ease during your long journey. Our auntie prepares traditional Anhui-style home-cooked meals daily using fresh local ingredients, ensuring you enjoy both meals to your heart's content. The back of the mountain leads directly to the hiking trails, saving you the hassle of detours to and from town and making your mountain adventures much more convenient. Our own tea garden produces fine tea. Before meals, we offer a cup of fragrant tea, leisurely chatting with guests about the flavor differences of various famous Huangshan teas, and sharing the unique tea-making process of Kuihong. This is one of our most enjoyable moments. The words you remember are the very essence of our mission in running this teahouse. We treat travelers with utmost care, and in our spare time, we find joy in the mountains and countryside, not chasing crowds or rushing, but quietly appreciating the bamboo forest, the fragrant tea, and the warmth of nature. Huangshan's scenery varies with the seasons—spring for tea picking, autumn for admiring the layered forests. We will always cherish this bamboo forest and tea garden, preparing hot tea and home-cooked meals, waiting for your return to enjoy tranquility. We wish you encounter such gentle and carefree scenery on every journey you take. Fragrant Tea 🍵

The location is fantastic, right at the foot of Huangshan Mountain, and they even have a dedicated Tesla charging station that's free to use. It rained during the Dragon Boat Festival this time, so maybe there were fewer people, but they upgraded our room as soon as we arrived. The guesthouse is nestled at the foot of the mountain, and I absolutely loved the lilies in the courtyard. There's a very well-behaved stray cat by the entrance, but the owner told us it's not a staff pet and advised against petting it. Breakfast was bountiful; you could choose congee, noodles, or cereal according to your preference. The front desk lady was incredibly warm and friendly; she even came out with an umbrella when it was raining. When we left, she gave us some local Huangshan specialties as a souvenir.

Response from Property: Dear guest, thank you so much for leaving a five-star review after your stay! We are all delighted! We are so glad that the excellent location at the foot of the mountain and the free Tesla charging station made your trip to Huangshan convenient. Since there were fewer guests due to the rain, upgrading your room was a small gesture of our appreciation. The lilies in the courtyard and the gentle stray cats at the door are unique touches of the guesthouse's rustic charm. We kindly asked you not to touch the cats, as they may not be regularly dewormed, to better ensure your safety. The receptionist's thoughtful gesture of offering umbrellas on rainy days and providing Huangshan specialty souvenirs upon departure demonstrates our commitment to providing warmth and care to every guest. The generous breakfast, with its selection of porridge, noodles, and oatmeal, is designed to ensure everyone can start their day with a delicious and warm meal. We look forward to your next visit to Huangshan, where we can enjoy the tea plantations on a sunny day. We have prepared hot tea and eagerly await your return! Fragrant Tea 🍵

It rained during the Dragon Boat Festival, so my boyfriend and I came here to unwind. I had saved this place a long time ago, and it certainly didn't disappoint. The guesthouse is in a large courtyard at the foot of a tea mountain, and the scenery is beautiful. Soaking in the tub and listening to the rain, surrounded by lush greenery, was incredibly relaxing. It's also very close to the food street, which is super convenient. The housekeeper was very attentive, and the owner even taught us tea ceremony. The breakfast was plentiful, and the complimentary Huangshan shortbread was delicious! It's not far from the South Gate of Huangshan, but unfortunately, we couldn't go up the mountain due to the heavy rain this time. We'll definitely stay here again next time.

Response from Property: Dear friends, thank you so much for adding our home to your favorites so early. We are truly honored to be your haven of comfort and healing! The recent days of rain have shrouded the tea mountains in mist, and soaking in the bathtub while listening to the gentle rain and gazing at the lush greenery is exactly the relaxation we wanted to offer our guests. We are delighted that this secluded mountain courtyard with its scenic view and tea-themed space can soothe your daily weariness. We are especially happy that you enjoyed the attentive care of our housekeeper and fell in love with our locally baked Huangshan sesame cakes. Teaching you a simple tea ceremony is also to help friends visiting the mountains slow down, appreciate the aroma of Huizhou tea, and enjoy a peaceful and leisurely time without rushing. The guesthouse is located next to a food street and is also very close to the South Gate of Huangshan, making it convenient for finding food and activities. It's just a pity that the heavy rain delayed your hike. We eagerly anticipate your next trip to Huangshan when the weather is clear. Please let us know in advance, and we'll prepare hot tea and crispy sesame cakes for you. We'll enjoy tea and the mountain scenery together. Wishing you joy every year and hoping you'll often return to our little courtyard for a rest.

Fresh back from working abroad, my family and I made our first stop straight for Huangshan. I stumbled upon your guesthouse on Ctrip and was instantly smitten. The moment we stepped in, the walls were covered with blooming roses, so gentle and soothing, instantly washing away all my fatigue. The housekeeper was incredibly thoughtful, accompanying us throughout, helping us take so many beautiful photos, just like a natural friend. The food was an even bigger surprise; we tasted the most authentic flavors, and they even used their own cold-pressed rapeseed oil – truly heartfelt down to the core. The environment was quiet and comfortable, providing a sense of relaxation I hadn't experienced in a long time, truly healing for the soul. In the afternoon, sitting in the tea garden behind the guesthouse, zoning out, unwinding, and sipping tea, with not a single worry on my mind. This is what travel should be like: peaceful, warm, full of life, and poetic.

Response from Property: Dear friend, your review deeply touched our entire team. We read it several times, and we are especially grateful that you chose us with your family, making us the first stop on your Huangshan trip. The rose wall, the tea garden on the back hill, the rustic charm of our homemade rapeseed oil – these small details we carefully crafted, and the fact that you captured and cherished them, truly warmed our hearts. The butler acted like a friend, accompanying you for photos and helping you relax. Seeing you unwind and enjoy tea in the tea garden perfectly embodies the travel experience we want for every guest – a blend of everyday life and poetic beauty. Thank you for your perfect score, and thank you for sharing this relaxing beauty with others. We will continue to cherish this tranquility and warmth, and we look forward to seeing you again in the future, amidst the breeze and aroma of tea in Huangshan, to chat with you about relaxing moments in life. Wishing you continued freedom and happiness in the days to come! Sincerely, Fangfei 🍵
