Hangzhou Insufficient Mountain Su (Xihu Scenic Area Branch) Reviews

Need to climb up some steps and we didn’t know we could add the hostel WeChat to arrange for them to pick up our luggage at the bottom of the stairs. Nice scenery from our room. Decent bed just that it’s tatami type with mattress so those with weak knees may have problem getting up from the bed directly.

The hotel is located at the top of the mountain. The staff is very helpful and gives a description of the area and recommended a great restaurant in a tea village nearby! Breakfast is fresh and the view from the hotel is great! Clean and renovated rooms! Great location to visit the west lake and central area of Hangzhou!

Good service from the butler with a cute resident cat called long san 龙三. Room is clean, nice and spacious Location is not too far from the tourists area (＜1hr). Overall would recommend this place.

Really cute place in one of the tea villages, great outdoor terrace with view onto the hills, very friendly staff and great interior design.

Very nice and clean hotel. Manager was a kind man. We enjoyed walking outside.

The location of the hotel is at the top of the mountain and has wonderful sweeping views of the surrounding hills with its terraced tea hillsides. Highly recommended.

It is a B&B hotel with similar pictures on the Internet and real photos. The sanitation is OK, the room bedding is clean, the air conditioning is warm, the breakfast is rich, and the location is the highest point between Manjuelong and Yangmeiling. The hotel's outdoor garden has a beautiful view. The West Lake mountains in the distance are layered, and the mountains are full of autumn colors. The maple leaves in the courtyard are red, and the succulents are lush, which makes the body and mind happy. This trip encountered foggy days, and the stars could only be vaguely seen. I look forward to staying here again in the next autumn to see the sky full of stars. It is very convenient to hike from the B&B to Longjing Village Shili Langyao, or to Manjuelong to punch in the soup house, and it is easy to hike.

The room is the same as the picture, what you see is what you get, clean and warm. The room not only has windows, but also a small balcony. The view of the homestay is excellent. The autumn is so beautiful! The tea garden plus the red, orange, yellow and green autumn leaves, the light mist is very fairy. In this season, you can see more concentrated colorful leaves than climbing Shili Langdang! It is quieter than the scenic area. The bedding is clean, smooth and very comfortable. The entrance is not easy to find. It is next to the stairs of the self-produced and self-sold Shifeng Longjing on the roadside, but it is worth it! I would like to stay again in autumn. It’s a pity that there is no food in the store. It takes 1 hour to order takeout during the peak period. Plan in advance.

This place is so beautiful, the sky is full of stars at night, and I accidentally saw a shooting star. The breakfast is also delicious, I will come again next time 🫶🏻 Very satisfying experience.

I chose this homestay for a solo trip. The location is actually quite easy to find. It is convenient to take a bus or taxi, although I walked up. In this season, it gets dark early, so it is best to go up the mountain early, but there are lights on the main road and it is okay to go out. The room is quite large, the layout is also very elegant, and there is a small dry landscape terrace. There seem to be three floors in total. The balcony outside the first floor is suitable for enjoying the wind and overlooking the mountain view. It was cloudy yesterday and rainy today, but it is actually very beautiful. If it is sunny, you should be able to see the sunrise. The housekeeper is very thoughtful. After checking in, he will send the tour route of nearby attractions. Before resting, he will ask again if there is any need. Before going out for a walk at night, he will remind you to bring an umbrella in the rain, which is very considerate. The breakfast is as shown in the picture. The variety is very rich and the taste is homely. There is also a glass of milk/orange juice, which is very full. It is a comfortable and pleasant stay experience. If I visit West Lake again next time, I will consider coming again~

The location of the B&B is the highest point in this area, with great scenery. There is a bus stop for Yanxia Cave nearby. It's my fault that I didn't do a good job of the guide. During the recent osmanthus blooming period, bus 87 does not pass through Manjuelong, and you have to walk up from Shiwu Cave. The B&B room gives people a very clean feeling. The tatami bed is very soft and comfortable, but the only drawback is that there is no physical partition between the toilet and the outside, which makes people feel a little isolated. I didn't realize this when looking at the photos of the B&B, and I don't understand the reason for this design. It is recommended to hang curtains on both sides of the bathroom and the sink. In addition, the hot water heats up very slowly. Now the weather is not so cold. If you wait until the cold winter, you may suffer. Therefore, it is recommended to write a tip at the door of the bathroom to explain that the waiting time for hot water is long, so that people can be mentally prepared. The breakfast was healthy and hygienic, but the breakfast was served late. It was said to start at 8 o'clock, but because the pipes were broken the night before, it actually started at 8 o'clock and we had to wait 20 minutes. We had to go out and play before coming back to eat. It is recommended to inform in advance when this happens, because guests who come from afar usually have their own schedules. If they cannot eat breakfast on time at 8 o'clock, it may affect the subsequent schedule. Overall, the hardware and software are relatively satisfactory, but some service details still need to be improved.

Thank you for the friendly welcome and impressive service. The accommodation is very beautiful. The room is as beautiful as the picture. The breakfast is delicious. The staff is very good. They asked for WeChat to send the accommodation details and contact us in case we got lost. The accommodation itself is on the hill, so we had to walk up. But don't worry about your luggage because they helped carry it both up and down. Lingsan the cat is also cute. He even told his friend who came with him that he wanted to go back and stay for 3 nights and he usually never writes reviews of accommodation. This is the first time he came to write a review because he wanted to praise it.

It was my first time staying in the mountains. Buzhushan Inn is backed by mountains and located halfway up the mountain. It is 500 meters away from the fragrant Manjuelong. It is quiet in the bustling city, with birds singing and flowers blooming in the morning. There is a large terrace in front of the B&B where you can watch the sunrise. The room is clean and tidy, the bedding and towels are of good quality, and the housekeeper service is warm, meticulous and thoughtful, especially sincere. After checking out, I was going to Yanxia Cave and Nangao Peak. The housekeeper was afraid that I couldn't find it, so he personally sent me to Yanxia Cave. I sincerely thank you and will come again next time!

The B&B environment is very good, with quiet mountain views, and it is very convenient to go hiking nearby; the guy at the front desk is attentive, considerate and kind, and can always provide appropriate help; the B&B cat Longsan is very affectionate and likes to be petted; on the terrace, with the breeze blowing, playing with the cat and reading a book facing the mountain view, it is very suitable to relax here, and I will come again if I have the chance in the future!
