Family Hotels in Jiangxi, China

I really loved the simple and elegant decor of the room. The owner, an auntie, was incredibly warm and friendly! I'd give her a perfect 100! I stayed in the 'Xiao Man' room, which was newly renovated and really nice, plus it had smart home features throughout. The cleanliness was spotless, making my stay incredibly reassuring. The air conditioning was cool, and I slept soundly all night. The next day when we were leaving, we forgot something, and the auntie actually reminded us herself. I'll definitely choose this guesthouse again next time!!! This area is also a lot of fun, I highly recommend everyone to come and visit!!

Over the past few years, I've enjoyed coming to Yichun for the selenium-rich hot spring waters. A friend recommended this hotel to me. Although it's an older property, the staff are quite prompt in resolving issues. I stayed in a room with a private hot spring tub, which was great for immediate soaking and relaxation – a really thoughtful design. The bathroom even had amenities like body lotion. It's peak season now, and the hotel is almost fully booked. The hotel's location is excellent, right on the edge of Wentang Town and quite close to the Tourist Service Center. I'll definitely keep this place in mind for future stays.

Overall, I'm satisfied with the hotel. It's very close to the guesthouse reception center, probably about a 5-minute walk. Getting to the scenic area takes a little over ten minutes. The room size was quite good, not the 20 square meters that Ctrip stated – I guess there are varying sizes. The complimentary snacks, something like sour plums, were nice. Breakfast met the expected standard for this price point. They offer free luggage assistance to your room or near the guesthouse center. It's also very close to the bus stop for the high-speed train station. If you're sick and need medication, the hotel provides a complimentary car service to a nearby clinic, which is about a 5-6 minute drive.

I found this hotel temporarily with my colleagues on a business trip. I didn't notice the invoice problem when I booked it, but the front desk manager Shi was very professional and patient to help us solve it when I checked out. The hotel itself is also very good, the decoration and facilities are generally new, and the price-performance ratio is very good.

This B&B is quite close to Wangxian Valley Scenic Area, and the surroundings are very quiet. The room gets great natural light, and the cleanliness is impeccable. The bedding is soft and comfortable. They even offered to help me carry my many bags to the room, which was incredibly thoughtful service. We each received a small gift upon check-in, and they offer a shuttle service to the scenic area, which is very convenient. They also helped me find a parking spot, which was a really nice touch. Breakfast was provided via vouchers for a nearby breakfast shop, and it was a good, affordable meal. I would definitely choose this B&B again if I come back to Wangxian Valley.

Wangxian Valley is an artificial, internet-famous scenic spot with a great ambiance. The hotel's hardware facilities are generally decent, but the overall service experience has significant room for improvement. The scenic area attracts a large crowd, and while staff members are visibly providing service, it's difficult for them to be truly attentive and thorough. The overall management appears somewhat chaotic. Showtimes and attraction information provided on the scenic area's mini-program and paper maps often differed from the actual on-site situation due to outdated information. This led to a lot of detours during my visit, significantly reducing the efficiency of my sightseeing. The scenic area primarily focuses on Instagrammable photo spots, lacking any introduction to Wangxian Valley's history and culture. There's also no dedicated information or guide desk for in-depth explanations. Visitors are left to explore and check off attractions on their own, missing out on a deeper cultural understanding. The service staff's quality varies, with many being interns who lack sufficient work experience. As a solo female traveler, the hotel did not proactively contact me with the specific check-in address after I booked. I had to call them to get the relevant information. When assigning my room, they didn't consider my solo travel situation and placed me in a building quite far from the central area. Although I requested a room change, there were no closer options available. While it was changed, it wasn't ideal. Despite the overall disappointing experience, I want to extend a special thank you to two staff members: the 17-year-old front desk associate, number 36, who was genuinely sincere and enthusiastic. He provided me with a lot of practical help and much-needed encouragement, which was incredibly heartwarming. Also, my butler, Xiao Meng, was very helpful. I hope the scenic area can optimize its information update mechanisms, strengthen staff training, and improve accommodation arrangements for solo travelers. I look forward to a better experience next time.

Spotlessly clean and in a great location. The owner is incredibly friendly – he arranged a pickup for us from the train station even though we only contacted him on the day of arrival at 1 AM, and our train arrived at 6 AM. He also brought us some wonderful peaches picked from his own peach tree. They were absolutely delicious. The room rate also included a round-trip transfer to Wangxian Valley Scenic Area, which was really convenient. On top of that, we were given early check-in, and the owner kindly carried our heavy suitcases all the way up to the third floor for us

Advantages The B&B is in the mountains, very quiet, the air is very good, the overall decoration is very warm, the room is quite clean, the courtyard is also very comfortable, there are two small swings, the boiled eggs for breakfast are delicious, tender and fragrant, and the white rice porridge is also well cooked. Disadvantages The room is small, the four pillows are very hard, and it is not easy to sleep. There is no TV in the room, and the sound insulation is very poor. Living on the first floor, you can hear the front desk calling when you close the door. I don’t know if the overall environment is too quiet. The bathroom is very cramped. The water temperature was very low when I took a shower around 10 o’clock. It was estimated to be 37 or 38 degrees. The air conditioning effect was not good when I took a cold shower. Glorious cold😷

The guesthouse is located on a mountain. The rooms are large and clean, and it's very close to the scenic area entrance, saving you the cost of the cable car. The landlady is very welcoming; she always arranges for her own tricycle to pick us up and drop us off whenever we go to the scenic area, and she also helps guests arrange shared rides. The prices are reasonable, and the service is excellent. It's a great place.

This hotel is on the uphill, inside the Lushan attraction. If you come to Lushan/Jiujiang by train, you need to go to their Sightseeing bus centre, and take their sightseeing bus to go up to another bus centre, and just give a call to the hotel, they would pick you up by a comfortable car. We had an unpleasant encounter with the didi driver driving us to the uphill, the driver was rude, even said to me “I got no time, just buy the ticket faster” (you need to purchase a ticket for the didi car and for yourself to drive up, an hour drive btw). So glad that the hotel staffs were all so nice and understanding. They welcomed us warmly, even listened to me complaining about the driver’s behaviour and rude remarks. They presented us with a welcoming fruit platter too! The hotel is clean, and very bear to Ruqin Lake. For my room, we got to wear 2 sets of hanfu for free (just put a deposit first, they’ll return the depo after you return the clothes). The staffs helped us bring our luggages into the room, even offered extra towel and room slippers since we came in 3. You got to experience brewing chinese tea by yourself too, since they prepared chinese tea leaves and chinese tea pot set in the room. Since we arrived there around 3, and had to take shower and clean up first, so we would only be able to start exploring Lushan at 4. The hotel staffs at the reception were so kind to prepare us with a map and gave us recommendations on places we can go, in the best order, since they know we would be walking until late at night. The picture of the lake is Ruqin Lake, it’s just in front of the hotel. As for the next morning, we had to wake up early to get a morning train from jiujiang to jingdezhen, so I asked for the receptionist’s help to make a wake-up call, in which they actually called our room at 4am! Thank you so much. Overall, the stay here was amazing! We will find for JI Hotel the next time we travel to China.
