Hotels with Breakfast in Liping

Great views of the village and rice terraces. Was able to see local people working in the fields. They also picked me up and dropped me off at the train station which would have been quite difficult to navigate in a small city and requiring to buy tickets to the village entrance. Best of all there was an English speaking host who helped me plan my day and trip to TangAn village which can be accessed by a nearby bus

The facilities are clean and well-equipped, and the overall environment is excellent. Located at a high point in the Dong village, it's easily accessible from the entrance and offers beautiful views. The service is attentive. The freshly ground coffee during breakfast hours was a nice touch. The pickup service from Congjiang High-Speed Rail Station or the ticket office parking lot was very convenient. The only minor suggestion is that during breakfast peak hours, the wait for food was a bit long. Even though the butler had pre-booked the breakfast time the night before, the noodles still needed to be freshly cooked. However, the accompanying eggs and corn were already cold. The noodles themselves were delicious! I'd recommend either improving the food's insulation or communicating with guests in advance about when to come down for their meal.

We had an incredible stay at the hotel. The location is perfect with incredible views over the fields. It is also 2 minutes walk to the best restaurants and sites of Zhaoxing. The staff was so kind to us, giving us a better room to accommodate us traveling with a baby. They organised all transport in amazing cars and we're always there to help us and give us recommendations on Zhaoxing. They even organised a driver to deliver our forgotten items to the translation after we checked out. The food for breakfast is also fresh and delicious with a lovely view. The rooms are big, luxurious and very new. I recommend this hotel highly to anyone traveling to Zhaoxing, you will not find a better hotel especially with the kinder staff. Thank you so much!

I highly recommend this guesthouse. The room is outstanding. It has everything you need and the view is spectacular. I really love how open and airy it is. The rooms have such a lovely cottage vibe. It is a magical feeling waking up in the morning to the lush green landscape with the view of the traditional village. But most of all, the hosts are incredibly warm and helpful, that I felt so comfortable and at home here. From beginning to end, the hosts were very proactive in communicating and I appreciated how helpful they were with my every need. I am forever grateful for them. The breakfast noodles and buffet are amazing and so rich. For lunch and dinner you can walk right to the village (4 min walk) for amazing restaurants and snacks. I really appreciated the convenient pickup and drop-off service. The open lounges are great to relax in if you want to be around other guests. But the rooms are quiet if you need silence. I had amazing sleep here. This guesthouse is worth it in every aspect. I stayed for quite long and wanted to extend my stay. I am so glad I picked this guesthouse. Book this place and you won’t regret it!

Traveling to Zhaoxing Dong Village during the off-season, I stumbled upon Zhaoxing No. 1 Boutique Homestay, and it was truly a delightful surprise! The overall quality and attentive service are absolutely on par with five-star standards – an amazing experience. Especially their breakfast rice noodles, they were so authentic and flavorful, I was hooked after one bite, absolutely delicious. My stay was comfortable and peaceful, I genuinely and highly recommend it. Next time I visit the Dong Village, this will definitely be my first choice again!

The guesthouse service was incredibly thoughtful. The owner proactively asked for our train schedule, and Uncle even picked us up from the high-speed rail station, which was really considerate and heartwarming. The rooms were clean and tidy, and the breakfast had a rich variety, generous portions, and tasted amazing. The location is right at the entrance of the village, making it convenient for getting around, yet it's not far into the village, so it's very quiet at night. The slope in front of the guesthouse is also a fantastic spot for photos with stunning views. Overall, a perfect experience!

The B&B environment was absolutely fantastic, and the cleanliness was impeccable. The layout was cozy and comfortable. The owner was super nice, making our check-in experience perfect. The location is excellent, making it easy to get around. Overall, we were very satisfied and it's definitely worth another visit. Highly recommended!

The owner was very thoughtful; seeing we had a child, they proactively upgraded us to a family room. The room was nicely furnished, with disposable towel sets and cups instead of traditional hotel toiletries. It had a relatively private balcony with views of the top of the Drum Tower and parts of the scenic area – perfect for relaxing on a deck chair. The hotel's location also avoided the noise of the main tourist area, which was a great advantage for guests who value a comfortable sleeping environment.

Cons: - stained towels and bed linen (I wouldn't care, but this hotel is 4 times more expensive than cheap hostels I usually stay in China, so I expect more) - I found a big spider the size of a hand in my room (but to be honest: I don't blame the owners for that because the spider could just come from the window, so it's not their fault) - the staff doesn't speak English Pros: - It is the cheapest hotel with license to give an accommodation for foreigners in Zhaoxing. - The receptionist came to my room immediately after my call in his free time and killed that spider I was talking about above. He is my hero! :) - Apart of stained towels and bed linen the room was cleaner than other rooms in other hostels I stayed in China. - The hotel has a good location just next to the town's gate. - I have got a bottle of water for free and all toiletries.

I found myself living in a prose poem within the Dong village. Here I am at the airport, waiting to board, and a small part of my heart is still lingering on that balcony. The guesthouse is located right at the entrance of the village, perfectly situated – not engulfed by the hustle and bustle, nor isolated from the daily life. I pushed open the door, walked into the room, set down my luggage, and stepped onto the balcony. The entire Dong village unfolded before my eyes, layer upon layer, with its dark tiled roofs stretching out like a painting crumpled by time and then smoothed open. I didn't go anywhere that evening; I just sat there, watching the twilight creep in inch by inch. The silhouette of the drum tower gradually turned into a cut-out, and the village lights flickered on one by one, like stars scattered across the mountains. That night, we simply listened to music and chatted in the mountain breeze, with the starry sky above and homes in the distance. We only stayed one night, but it felt as if we had been there for a long time. The room itself was beautiful too, with thoughtful touches hidden in every corner. The interplay of light and shadow on the window lattices, the grain of the wood – every casual shot captured a perfect scene. But these qualities, ultimately, are about the house. What truly captivates you here are the people. The landlady, a native Dong, was born and raised there, exuding a vibrant energy gifted by the land itself. She led us through small alleys not found on any map, where the stone paths were smoothed by time, and wooden houses on either side revealed cooking smoke and clothes drying. She told us which corners had the best light, and in front of which old window lattice we could capture a unique view of the Wind-Rain Bridge – those places without road signs are the true veins of the village. When she had free time, she chatted with us, telling us about working in other provinces when she was young, and how she returned when the road reached her doorstep – preferring to work in her own village, be close to her elders and children, living a steady life. She also talked about swimming in the river in winter, and her eyes sparkled when she spoke of it. It wasn't boasting, but the kind of radiance you see in someone who truly lives life to the fullest. We only spent a day together, but I still remember her way of speaking very clearly. She also helped us arrange for a driver to take us to see the sunrise the next day, meticulously instructing us on the time and location, as if she were organizing something for her own relatives. The next morning, as the first light broke, standing on the mountain and watching the golden light gradually paint the village, my heart swelled with much more than just the beauty of the scenery. Coincidentally, we had just visited the Long March exhibition the day before. The stories of crossing mountains and rivers, enduring snow and wind, still weighed heavily on my mind. Hearing the landlady laughingly say, “Now every village has concrete roads,” in that moment, history suddenly transformed from text in a glass case into the roads beneath my feet, the people before my eyes, and the ordinary life within reach. I have never so genuinely felt that some roads, traveled for nearly a century, have finally reached the doorsteps of ordinary homes. There was also a little sister, running back and forth, helping us with our luggage and making reservations. Her smile was shy and sweet, like a ray of light peeking through the morning mist. We only stayed one night. But in that one night, this guesthouse gave me a memory with warmth. As I left, I wondered how long a trip could be remembered, and perhaps it doesn't depend on how many days you stayed, but on who you met. If you come to Zhaoxing, I hope you stay here. Sit on the balcony and feel the mountain breeze, walk those nameless paths with the landlady, and you'll discover that the drum tower is beautiful, the flower bridge is beautiful, but the most beautiful things are the people and the moments you finally slow down and get close to. Thank you, big sister. We will definitely be back.
