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!!

The hotel is quite new, conveniently located in a prominent and easy-to-find spot. Cleanliness: Spotlessly clean. Environment: The surrounding area boasts numerous dining options, supermarkets, bars, and late-night eateries. Takeaway services are also readily available, and you'll find no shortage of tea shops and cafes. The hotel itself features restaurants, and the breakfast spread offers a good variety with decent taste – truly comprehensive and satisfying. Service: Fantastic! The staff were very friendly and always smiling.👍 Facilities: A point to note for first-time visitors to Yichun – not all rooms at the hotel include hot spring tickets.

Having heard so much about Wangxian Valley, finally seeing it today, 'stunning' and 'awe-inspiring' are the most fitting words. It's especially remarkable knowing that its predecessor was an ecologically devastated area due to over-mining. To transform it into such a grand, retro-style Gan-style village, designed and rebuilt with incredible creativity, building scenery along the mountain cliffs – it truly makes for a breathtaking sight. The design and construction are incredibly thoughtful; almost every corner, every plant, and tree is a beautiful scene you can't help but capture with your camera. Yet, you also want to put the camera down and let your eyes soak in the beauty. The room layout is also excellent, with a strong homestay vibe. From the moment we arrived, staff were there to help with luggage and guide us, even delivering bags to our room – it's all very standardized and well-managed service. However, one day here really feels rushed; if you have enough time, I'd suggest two days to truly experience it. Oh, and the breakfast is incredibly rich, offering both local specialties and classic Chinese and Western breakfast items. The food is genuinely delicious, and the variety surpasses even five-star hotels. We stayed near the guesthouse reception center. The only drawback was the lack of dining options nearby; we had to walk to the snack street at the bottom of the valley or to the few restaurants in the middle section, but they closed quite early. Later, we discovered that the old enclosed building at the guesthouse reception center actually had many specialty snacks and delicacies, and they were open very late. The Yangkou fried noodles, clear soup wontons (get the ones with egg!), and the crock pot stew at the very back were all delicious. Highly recommend!

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.

When I was choosing a room, I found it quite confusing. It was hard to tell the main differences between each room type. I'd suggest the hotel add some notes, for example, indicating that a certain room type is located in the 'old enclosed building'. The old enclosed building itself is quite unique, but the soundproofing for the open-plan rooms isn't great. Also, the windows in each room are quite small, so the view is very ordinary. The overall style of the room is minimalist. It's not very spacious, and the amenities are quite basic. There isn't even a wardrobe to put things in, just a simple clothes rack. So, I strongly recommend replacing the large bathtub, which serves little practical purpose, with a storage cabinet. Having that bathtub right in the living area, visible as soon as you open the door, is neither aesthetically pleasing nor practical. I also have to complain about the hygiene. The phone on the bedside table had a visible layer of dust, and the window sill and windows hadn't been cleaned in a long time – when I tried to open a window, dust flew everywhere. There were multiple stains on the fabric sofa. While fabric can be hard to maintain, efforts should be made to clean it thoroughly, otherwise, it really impacts the overall impression. Aside from the hygiene and some layout issues that need improvement, the location is excellent. It's right at the entrance to the scenic area and also a shuttle bus stop, which is very convenient. Since there are many steps within the scenic area, this location has almost no steps to navigate. The breakfast selection was also quite good.

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.

Shuttle service from Wangxian Valley Scenic Area entrance to the guesthouse: The owner offers convenient pick-up and drop-off. Service: Great. The breakfast was delicious, and there are many restaurants nearby. It's very close to the scenic area, the property is brand new and spotless, and the room is quite spacious, making it easy to store luggage.
