Hongcun Yunshan mountain scenery house

This is a gorgeous hotel in a 300 year old house with a lovely courtyard garden. At the edge of the larger of Hongcun’s lake it was easy to wander through the town but slightly quieter than some of the other streets. Staff were friendly and helpful. Nice Chinese breakfast.

Hongcun Yushan mountain scenery house is convenienly located near the South Gate of Hongcun Scenic area. We booked courtyard B which is located outside and behind the main hotel complex with breakfast included. The room was spacious, tastefully decorated, clean and comfortable, and had a small courtyard, but unfortunately no garden chairs or table to sit outside. In hindsight we woud book another room in the main complex next time. It has a lovely open garden and plenty of outdoor seating. I contacted the hotel before our stay and managed by using a voice translator to connect with the staff on Wechat. A friendly staff member met us at the entrance to the scenic area and entry is free of charge when you stay at the hotel. The hotel staff don't speak any English, but they were very helpful and friendly and we got along fine using Wechat and other translators. I won't recommend eating dinner at the hotel as there are many local Chinese restaurants in the ancient village. The hotel offers a coffee shop in the lobby and has a number of options, like Americano, Latte etc. The coffee is very good, but I felt it was a bit pricey for the cup size. The hotel breakfast is Chinese with no Western options, and it is served in unique way in a tray. I enjoyed the breakfast, but my husband would have liked more western options. On our arrival the room was already pre-heated and the beds in the room were comfortable. It was snowing lightly when we arrived and there were umbrellas available in the room. They also provide vanity items. We visited just before the Chinese New Year tourist rush at the beginning of the holiday and this was a very good location and time to visit despite the cold weather. The ancient village was not too crowded and it was nice to walk around in the evenings and daytime with the hotel is situated conveniently right next to the South lake. Drone flying is allowed which can give drone flyers an aerial view of the village. Depending on your iterinary a one night stay is sufficient to visit Hongcun and the nearby Xidi ancient village then move on to another hotel at the foot or top of the mountain or Tunxi village. We enjoyed our stay and can recommend this hotel to travelers wanting a good hotel experience in Hongcun.

Truly great place. Very friendly and well trained staff, wonderful Huizhou house tastefully renovated and decorated. Everything is clean and tidy. Feels like a home. The garden is an oasis of peace when you need to get away from the crowds.

Great stay!

酒店位置特別好 就在南湖邊，但是很安靜 ，300年的老宅很有韻味，還有咖啡店，在酒店就能安安靜靜的呆一下午，管家很熱情，幫忙拿行李，離店還送了伴手禮，很貼心，特別推薦入住（ ˘ ³˘）❤

房間很滿意，乾淨、舒適，單獨一個小院，與酒店主區分開的，經過一條小巷，挺有感覺的，也安靜。民宿主區設計有花園，有室外餐區，有盆景，有桃樹。特別喜歡推門而進的公共區域，古樸安靜，兩側有房間，下次如果再來宏村，可以考慮住主樓。老闆娘和服務員都很熱心，管家到停車場來接，民宿地理位置很好，推門而出就是南湖。值得推薦。
