#Jiande Lanqing Shiguang B&B (Meicheng Ancient Town Branch) Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
For a vacation in the ancient town, I would like to recommend this homestay
Lanqing Shiguang Homestay is located within the ancient town's parking lot, and just outside its side alley is the street of the ancient town, which suits people like me who prefer not to waste time wandering around aimlessly. The homestay has 11 guest rooms. I originally wanted to book a first-floor room with two 1.5-meter beds for my family, but they were all booked, so I stayed in a Loft room instead. The attention to detail in the room is commendable, with a sterilization cabinet, disinfectant wipes, and smart controls. The staff at the homestay are also quite enthusiastic and able to meet some of our needs during our stay. It is a well-managed homestay, and I believe it would be beautiful for photos, although I'm not particularly interested, but the flowers and architectural details are still pretty. Having breakfast in the courtyard while basking in the sun and spacing out feels great. When checking out, a parting gift is also essential.

Boutique Summer Retreat | Residing in "Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains"
I had always believed that the quality of high-end hotels would undoubtedly surpass that of homestays, until my return from Jiande over the weekend, which somewhat overturned my understanding! It turns out that the quality of a homestay depends on the host's dedication and taste🍷.
🏯Meicheng, a remote ancient city in Jiande, Hangzhou, is located on the banks of the Fuchun River. The beautiful scenery of the Fuchun River, as depicted by Meng Haoran in his verse "Wild expanse under the low sky, clear river under the close moon", is now known to few. The advantages are naturally obvious:
🌟Direct high-speed rail access, avoiding crowds, and high cost-performance ratio of hotels🌟.
🏨Jiande·Lanqing Shiguang Homestay
Their property is located in the south gate parking lot of the scenic area, and the ancient town is just outside the back door. Initially, I thought it would be a quaint guest room, and based on past experience, I would have to make do with the sanitary conditions of the ancient architecture.
🚣Upon entering the hotel, the first thing I saw was a popular swimming pool and coffee shop!
✨To the right of the swimming pool is a whole loft building. We stayed in a large bed room above the swimming pool. The attention to detail as we ascended the stairs was very touching. There were sensor lights installed under the steps, and the combination of glass walls➕ancient crystal chandeliers was very design-oriented.
The room had a high ceiling and an antique-style roof could be seen. Outside the glass bathtub, there were light strips and stones embedded, so there was no fear of water splashing out during a bath at night.
Projectors are not uncommon, but it's rare to see one with such a delicate screen.
We ended up treating the homestay like a model room for decoration, touching here and taking pictures there. For the first time, we felt like taking the hotel amenities home. The owner said this was not the first time, as guests often asked to purchase their soft-bristle toothbrushes, pillows, bathrobes, and bath products, etc...
The breakfast area was very elegant, with a fireplace➕wicker chairs, and a small earthen house where no pots and pans could be seen. Meals were served on trays, accompanied by Jiande's unique tofu wraps. Children under 1.4m also had the privilege of choosing their own meals, without having to pay extra or share with their parents.
There are actually quite a few places to play around the Fuchun River. In addition to traditional attractions, there are also plenty of water activities, picking activities, etc., which are all suitable for family outings and team building.

Hangzhou | Lanqing Shiguang Homesta
'Lanqing Shiguang' Homestay is located on the south side of Wang's former residence on Sanxing Street in Jiande City, Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province. By the Fuchun River, in the heart of Meicheng Yanzhou ancient city, it offers tranquility amidst the hustle and bustle. Outside the wall lies the historic Dou Thousand-Year Ancient Town, while inside is a serene courtyard, a quiet haven. A door apart, one can alternate between the peaceful courtyard and the lively market atmosphere, where time seems to linger warmly.
The homestay is transformed from a century-old house in the ancient town, retaining the appearance of Hui-style architecture, with white walls and black tiles exuding poetic charm. Walking along the winding stone path into the courtyard, one is greeted by a mix of new Chinese style and postmodernist style in the landscape layout, with unique views at every step, making it an excellent spot for taking photos.

Ten Years Hotelier | Inventory of hotels I stayed with my child in 2023
Year-end summary, how can I miss my favorite hotel chapter
Both the red and black lists are attached❗
These are all my personal experiences, I hope it will help you who will travel in 2024
🔴Red List
1⃣Zhejiang Qiandao Lake·Kaiyuan Resort
The overall facilities of the hotel are very child-friendly, with a large indoor playground and outdoor playground, and a cute pet park, it's a paradise for walking with children❗
2⃣Zhejiang Jiande·Lanqing Shiguang Homestay
I always have reservations about homestays, but this homestay, you can see that the boss has carefully crafted it, the bedding is very clean, the bed is very comfortable, not the kind of soft hotel, the breakfast is also local specialties, super delicious❗
3⃣Guangdong Zhuhai·Orange Crystal Gongbei Port Store
The location of this hotel is very good, a few steps away is a very Cantonese-style dim sum shop, and it is also very close to the starting station of the sightseeing double-decker bus. I recommend friends who go to Zhuhai, you don't necessarily have to live on the beach, living in Gongbei is also very convenient
4⃣Qinghai Xining·Center Square Yile Residence
Qinggan Ring Line, we entered and exited from Xining, stayed in this hotel twice, the room is large, and there is a laundry room which is very convenient
5⃣Gansu Dunhuang·Dongting International
We booked this one when we couldn't book a hotel in the peak season. It was newly opened at the time, and it was new, the room was large, and there was a laundry room. Really! Going to the Qinggan Ring Line, finding a hotel with a laundry room is such a happy thing
6⃣Gansu Lanzhou·Asia-Europe International High-altitude Art Hotel S
It is worthy of being the Art Hotel of the provincial capital city, maintaining the consistent standard of Art Hotel, and because the floor is high, the view is very good, BTW, the breakfast noodles are delicious
⚫Black List
1⃣Guangdong Zhuhai·Lover's Road Art Hotel X
Friends who go to Zhuhai avoid this one. The room design is very unreasonable. The toilet in the bathroom is very short from the door, and it is difficult to sit down comfortably and close the door; the front desk is unprofessional, and the service and efficiency are very low, so I changed the hotel the next day
2⃣Gansu Zhangye·Ibis
Well, this one is because Zhangye really can't choose a hotel. I think it's a chain anyway. It's also a design problem. The door of the bathroom is transparent, and the room is very small, but the price is there, and there is nothing to pick
🟢Park Chapter
1⃣Guangdong Zhuhai·Chimelong Penguin Hotel
The hotel is quite mature in operation. Although the lobby was crowded with people when we arrived, the process of queuing for check-in was very smooth. The next morning, the hotel's exclusive entrance to the park was also very smooth. This is the meaning of living in the park! The only thing to complain about should be dinner, right? The restaurant's single point is all pre-made food without pot gas, and it's expensive
2⃣Zhejiang Anji·Zhongnan Tiger Hotel
Tiger Hotel is the hotel that comes with Zhongnan Baicao Garden. Why not just stay at Tiger Hotel if you want to play these two places at the same time!
