Homestays in Shaoguan

The B&B, named 'Zen', truly lives up to its name – it's incredibly quiet and peaceful, a perfect place for introspection. Our little one had an absolute blast here. It was the perfect ending to our Chinese New Year trip! The service, whether from the older lady or the younger woman, was absolutely wonderful and incredibly warm-hearted. They were so thoughtful, and we'll definitely be staying here again on our next visit.

Facilities: Fully equipped, and even includes disposable bath towels – very thoughtful. Cleanliness: Clean and hygienic; the bedding is visibly clean, comfortable and reassuring. Environment: Located in the second row of the guesthouse area, it's relatively quiet. Service: Attentive service; the owner carefully plans sightseeing routes and, when possible, even drives you to the shuttle bus stop outside the scenic area gate to return to the high-speed rail station. Because the guesthouse doesn't have a restaurant, the overall atmosphere is clean and tidy, making for a comfortable stay.

I made a last-minute decision to go to Danxia Mountain and saw that I had booked Yunsu Hotel 8 years ago, but I hadn't called the owner to make a reservation beforehand. The owner told us to stay at Firefly Hotel instead. Back then, Firefly Hotel had just opened, and the walls and room facilities were relatively new, so it was alright. 8 years later, when I booked Firefly again, it was much older and more worn out. Water was constantly dripping from the air conditioner at the door, and the sheets seemed unwashed; they were quite itchy. The only redeeming quality was the price.

We had a wonderful time at Home of Mountains. The rooms, and the hotel itself, were beautifully decorated and very clean. Every day there was a varied breakfast and a lovingly prepared afternoon tea. Coffee lovers will also be happy here; there are several special coffees to try. The staff and the owner were very attentive, friendly, and helpful. We were given tips for the surrounding attractions, so that even though the scenic area was closed one day due to bad weather, we were able to explore the area. There is a pool on the hotel grounds that you can use at any time—perfect for cooling off after a day in the mountains. The hotel is just a few minutes away from the scenic area, and even from the grounds you have a beautiful view of the surrounding mountains. We can absolutely recommend the hotel; if we come to the area again, it would definitely be our first choice. Thank you for the wonderful time!

A comfy, no frills Chinese inn managed by a husband and wife team. The lady owner was informative and helped me to plan the best routes to hike as well as enjoy the Danxia Mountains. She even assisted me to purchase a discounted ticket for the Danxia night cruise. Inn's location is located near the Danxia main gate as well as eateries. Perfect Chinese hospitality. Truly a home away from home. TIP: Non locals including foreigners who flew into Guangdong province within the last 10 days and can show their air tickets at the ticket counter can get a free 2 day visit to the Danxia Mountains. Information is accurate as at January 2026.

Very clean and warm hotel. Very big room, huge window and view to the mountains. New double windows, so very quiet. Good beds and linen, good shower. The owners are extremely helpful. The girl made us 2 days itinerary with suggestions which places to go and which routes to use. She printed out the whole A4 text that was really helpful and made markings on the mountain map. We followed only her suggestions and without them it had been difficult decide where to go. The guy ordered us car to Shaoguan city, paid for it with his Wepay app and we paid him back using Alipay! It was so helpful of him to do it, because Alipay showed prices at around 150 RMB, Wechat only 58! We as foreigners couldn't download Wechat. Very good hotel, when visiting Danxia Mountains!

We stayed at this hotel in Danxia Geopark for three nights, and we absolutely loved it! The staff were incredibly friendly, especially the receptionist who helped us with everything we needed. The room had all the necessary amenities and was very comfortable. The air conditioner was new and very quiet, making our stay even more pleasant. The view from the balcony was absolutely stunning, and the hotel is very close to the park entrance, which was extremely convenient. I highly recommend this hotel and will definitely come back!

Facilities: Complete facilities, including barbecue, KTV, coffee shop, mahjong room, etc. downstairs. The bedding is also very comfortable, with cotton and linen sheets, which are of high quality. Hygiene: Clean and tidy, carefully cleaned, and bathroom supplies are complete. Environment: At the foot of the mountain, you can overlook the beautiful scenery of Danxia Mountain. Unfortunately, it was foggy and did not see the sunrise. The overall feeling was that the winding paths lead to a quiet place. The peach blossoms were blooming in the yard, so I forgot to take pictures. Service: The service is warm and thoughtful. I even had a roasted sweet potato when I checked in. Because there were not many guests that day, the room type was upgraded. The front desk also displays award-winning information such as excellent B&Bs and the governing units of regional B&B associations. Overall, it is definitely a B&B worth staying in if you come to Danxia Mountain~

The room is clean, the service is great, and I like the decoration style very much. I recommend it to my friends. Moreover, the landlady is very nice.
