Facilities: The showerhead has a very weak water pressure.
Cleanliness: The tables are generally dusty, and the blankets and pillows are not very clean.
Environment: Average. There's no elevator, so you have to climb stairs, which is tiring to carry luggage up.
Service: Average. Not very enthusiastic.

This place makes me wish there was an option for six stars.
I study Asian art for a living, and I travelled to Jianyang to visit the home of Jian ware, classic tea bowls of the Song dynasty (960 to 1279 CE), distinguished by their black and brown glazes. Over the last few decades, firing Jian ware in the Song tradition has been revived in the area. I chose Nanping Colourful Village Homestay because it was in Jianyang, affordable, and accepted international guests. What I found was a luxury resort with all the warmth and personal attention of a homestay.
I asked the front desk about an excavated Song kiln site in a nearby village, and the receptionist brought me the manager, who arranged for someone to take me the next day. My driver was Ms. Huang, an employee of the resort whose job involves buying and selling contemporary pieces. She knew everything about Jian ware! The kiln site isn’t run as a tourist site, so I was only able to view it because Ms. Huang arranged for it to be opened for me.
I had told them I was vegetarian, so for lunch they took me to lunch at a vegetarian buffet. Then we visited the town’s Jian ware museum, where they have exhibits on the history of tea and Jian ware, historical pieces, and the work of contemporary Jianyang potters.
To my delight, Mr. Gao, the potter-in-residence at the resort, uses a Song-style wood-fired dragon kiln, built right on the grounds! His pieces that range from beautiful but quite affordable to exquisite and appropriately expensive. They include both iridescent silvery oil spot and orange-to-black hare’s fur pieces. I am still thrilled that I was able to purchase wood-fired pieces on my limited budget.
For dinner, the resort’s restaurant prepared vegetarian versions of Fujian cuisine for me. The food was all delicious, featuring classic Fujianese mountain ingredients like local bamboo and mushrooms.
Then we visited Mr. Gao’s dragon kiln, and later his studio, where he experiments with different local clays and glaze recipes. The rich colours and iridescence of Jian ware are the result of the iron-rich local material fired at high temperature, and the results are as unpredictable as they are beautiful.
The next day, they drove me to Mr. Chen’s family tea plantation in the mountains, where they grow famous northern Fujian teas. These fine teas were all wonderful, smooth and rich with a touch of smoke, and sometimes fruity in flavour. We strolled through mountainsides of tea bushes and visited groves of centuries-old tea trees.
This is a perfect place for an immersive experience in China that is also very comfortable and convenient. I often find tourist experiences in China claustrophobic due to the press of people, but the resort was spacious and airy, and they took me to places where there was no one else but us and the occasional local going about their business. Everyone was very patient with my limited Chinese language skills. They were also happy to work with translator apps on our phones, so if you don’t speak any Chinese, you will be fine.
This would be a great place to come as a family. There are gardens and rides for kids right next to the resort. You can learn how to whip Song-style tea and carve your name into the base of your own Jian ware cup. Not far away is a historical theme park with a collection of real architecture from the Ming (1368 to 1644 CE) and Qing (1636 to 1912 CE) dynasties. The employees wear period dress and there are performances and activities. Nearby there are hiking trails, historical sites, and lovely villages to visit.
It’s also very close to Wuyi Mountain National Park, so it would be a perfect place to stay if the mountains are your destination. If you ask, they could arrange for you to visit famous sites or take you to breathtaking places that only locals know, whatever you want. They can also arrange transport to and from the train station or airport.

Guest UserVery close to the South Railway Station, just a 10-15 minute taxi ride, making travel super convenient. The room was clean and spacious, the bed was soft and comfy, and the front desk staff were really enthusiastic. There are plenty of dining options nearby, making it excellent value for money.

Guest UserLocated at the end of Nanmen Bay, on the upper left of Dongshan Fengdongshi Scenic Area, the room we stayed in has no noise mirrors and looks like it is in the scenic area. The super invincible sea view, we can take postcard-like photos on our own private balcony. In terms of geographical location, other B&Bs or hotels on Dongshan Island may really not be able to compare with his home. In terms of the luxury of the room, many B&Bs I have stayed in in China are really not on the same level as his home. The decoration in the room is simple but high-end, and many equipment and furniture are imported (so although the room fee has been collected, pre-authorization is still required). His shower room is one of the few hotels and B&Bs I have stayed in in China that will not leak. The projector also has a high-definition picture. There are many snacks in the room. Basically, you don’t want to go out when you stay in the room, because the beautiful sea view can make you lie on the rocking chair on the balcony for an afternoon. It’s really a bit like our vacation in Seychelles or Six Senses Yao Noi.
Because it is relatively hidden, it is a little far from the parking and commercial areas (many restaurants are in this area), and the owner of the B&B will drive a battery car to pick you up. The B&B is not far from the only remaining ancient street in Dongshan, and there are many snack shops and small restaurants on the ancient street. Go to the lower left after leaving the B&B, and you will see many piers where fishing boats are moored after passing the Fengdongshi ticket office. The more famous Fish Ball Grandma on the island is nearby. His Liufu fish balls, peanut sesame cakes and meat dumplings are delicious.
The B&B does not provide breakfast, but you can take it out, which is not inconvenient.
The main thing here is the high-end rooms and the unbeatable sea view. The most important thing is that dogs are also welcome. My two short legs also like it here very much.

🌟 The room decor is cozy, and the king-size bed is super comfortable. The bathroom is clean and tidy, and the service is thoughtful and attentive. I'll definitely choose this place again next time! It's also close to the scenic spots, right below Zengcuo'an, which is good. The beach is right outside the door.

Guest UserThe room had a large bed and a small bed, which was enough for our family of five (2 adults and 3 children). The environment was elegant and the soundproofing was good. There was also a mini-fridge in the room, perfect for storing fruits and drinks. The kids loved the pool downstairs. The only downside was the TV; it wasn't connected to the internet, so we couldn't choose what we wanted to watch. The hotel's location is excellent, with many attractions nearby, making it convenient for shopping and dining!

Guest UserClean homestay, the decoration is very small and fresh, we booked a big bed room on the first floor, affordable, good stay experience. The dinner was cooked by the boss himself, the quantity was large and fresh, and the taste was good. The boss's father has been busy around and around, making tea for us, providing us with many useful tour information. It was a good stay experience.

The rooms are very smart. The hotel is located on the 4th floor above Zhongshan Road Pedestrian Street, and it's also very close to Xiamen Zhenghai Road Metro Station. It's also very near to the Gulangyu ferry terminal, about a 10-minute drive. The hotel has a Nanyang style, and there's a large common area. They also offer a self-service breakfast. The hotel corridors use Tieguanyin tea as air freshener, creating a tea-scented aroma. All hotel rooms have been disinfected, and the hotel even provides a service for sending out express deliveries. Overall, it's excellent.

Guest UserIf Ctrip gives it 6 stars, I'd definitely give it 8!
1. Unbeatable location (very close to the beach! Very close! Very close! Very close! Very close! Very close! Very close! Very close! Very close! The bus terminal is very close! Very close!)
2. The room was exquisite, clean, bright, and comfortable. I was worried the sofa bed wouldn't fit my child (1.4 meters), but it's at least 1.8 meters long when unfolded, so my child slept comfortably!
3. Heat pump dryer!
4. The hotel offers pre-service: complimentary beach shoes, beach tools, and outdoor showers—super convenient!
5. The front desk staff are a group of energetic young people; communication was smooth and efficient.
6. My child forgot their summer homework, but the hotel found it, and the homework arrived home before we did! Thank you so much!

I had a wonderful stay at the Hilton in Fuzhou! The service was excellent from the moment I arrived. I really appreciated that they were able to accommodate an early check-in, and the staff even let me choose from the available rooms so I could pick the one I preferred.
The room was very comfortable and had a beautiful view, which made the stay even more enjoyable. I also really liked the gym facilities — the gym was well-equipped, clean, and a great addition to the hotel.
The 管家服务 (personal concierge/butler service) was especially thoughtful and attentive throughout my stay. They were always responsive and made everything very convenient. I also really appreciated the transportation/car service, which made getting around much easier.
Overall, the staff were welcoming, professional, and genuinely helpful. Between the great service, beautiful room view, gym facilities, and convenient transportation service, I had a very comfortable and enjoyable experience. I would definitely stay here again the next time I’m in Fuzhou!
