Homestays in Zhenyuan County

This hotel is located right at the entrance to the Fanjing Mountain scenic area, which is extremely convenient. The room was very clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. The owner was incredibly kind, warm, and helpful. Even though we are grown men, she still insisted on helping us carry our luggage. She even told us that if she had known what time we were arriving, she would have gone up to the room beforehand and turned on the air conditioning so it would already be cool when we arrived. She also took the initiative to make us an extra room card (key) so we could leave the air conditioning running while we were out and come back to a nice, cool room. We really appreciated how thoughtful and welcoming she was. Highly recommended, and if we have the chance to visit Fanjing Mountain again, we would definitely stay here again.

Traveling by car, the front desk staff helped me park it for free. I didn't even have to touch my luggage; the front desk brought it all to my room. The room was super clean, with all smart facilities, and a really comfortable balcony overlooking the river. In the evening, I enjoyed the river breeze, had a cigarette, and savored the unique charm of the ancient town. The room also had a hot spring bath, so I bought a bath bomb and had a really relaxing soak. The bed was incredibly comfortable, especially the pillows! It's clear the owner is very thoughtful and genuinely cares about their guests. In the morning, the owner invited us to tea and explained the history and attractions of the ancient town. The owner is clearly very passionate about their hometown and a perfectionist. It felt like I was treated like an old friend here. Highly recommend!

This has become my favorite hotel! I've always loved these grand courtyard estates, but I've never truly experienced one as a 'host,' taking my time to savor and enjoy it up close. When I first saw photos of the hotel, I thought it looked small, but that was just the angle. First off, the rooms are huge, and they even come with a balcony – perfect for enjoying tea and just unwinding. It's absolutely wonderful! As for the courtyard, the one you see in pictures is just one of them; in reality, it's a 'three-entry, three-exit' courtyard complex! Each section is unique and incredibly picturesque. I later found out from a staff member that this is actually a century-old historical residence, now managed by the county's culture and tourism bureau and transformed into the area's finest courtyard-style guesthouse. If you love this kind of style, you absolutely have to check it out!

I visited Zhenyuan Ancient Town in Guizhou this May, and before arriving, I compared several B&Bs and hotels. I ended up blindly choosing 'Fanyun Shanshe' and it felt like striking gold! Here's what I'd like to share with anyone planning a trip: After booking, the host proactively called me early to confirm directions and even drove to the parking lot to pick us up and drop us off at the hotel entrance. When we left, the lovely owner also helped us transport our luggage to the street – so thoughtful and kind. The entire room features floor-to-ceiling windows directly facing the Wuyang River. From the room, you can see both Qinglong Cave and Zhusheng Bridge. Zhenyuan evenings in May are incredibly cool and pleasant. Sitting by the window and watching the myriad lights illuminate on the opposite bank felt like a 'real-life Spirited Away.' The view alone makes the room price worth it! The B&B's cleanliness standards are top-notch. The overall room style is a vintage wabi-sabi aesthetic with beige tones. The bedding is soft and clean, and I particularly loved how spacious and separate the shower room was, with hot water coming on very quickly. All the bathroom fixtures are from well-known brands. The B&B offers both the tranquility of a secluded retreat and is super close to the main scenic spots! You can walk to Zhusheng Bridge, Qinglong Cave, and Shiping Mountain in just 3-5 minutes. The next morning, I climbed Shiping Mountain and gazed at the entire city from above – the 'Bagua City' truly lives up to its reputation!

The room was as advertised. Comfortable bed, spacious and clean. Our room was on the 5th floor and we had a great view of the river and the bridge. The only issue was that the shower door couldn't close properly (I think it wasn't installed correctly) but it wasn't a big problem because the shower area was big enough to contain the splashing. The staff were friendly and helpful despite my limited Chinese. They made an effort using a translation app to be sure they understood what we needed and helped us book a taxi to the train station.

Okay so for anyone that need a great place for healing or just enjoying the peace, guys please come to zhenyuan 😭😭😭! 1. Location Okay to be honest this place is a little bit far from the railway station but who cares?!!!! ITS SOOOOO PRETTY AND AMAZING WITH THE MOUNTAINS AND RIVER VIEWWWW 😭😭😭😭 (I CANT MOVE ON FROM THIS PLACE) + So from the railway station,you can just ride a taxi or just give a chance to ride the wooden bus,it's soooo amazing hahahaha it's new to me,but its soo fun! (Check for the bus number 3 or 1 or 2) + The location is literally nearby the amazing cave so you can just chilling around while having a morning walk nearby! + For Muslims, I'm sorry but you really need to be redho as it's kinda hard to find halal food here,and our alternative is only by cooking eggs and eating bread and kiwis which is not bad tho! But you can find tons of seafood meal around the area(but both of us were too lazy to ask for the ingredients of the food so we just play safe and eat fruits(healthy diet haha) 2.Room Should I even say how amazing the view?!!!! It's sooooo nearby the famous bridge and night time? Oh god we even have a photoshoots at our balcony (cause the view is sooo crazy) + The room is sooo cozyy and the toilet have bidet!

A quaint,i think should be called homestay,run by a middle aged couple with excellent service.place was very clean (i think they had a recent renovation) Mu room had a balcony with a view of the zucheng bridge(i hope i got that right). The towels provided has a funny feel😄😄 They offered free flow of bottled water. The place is just within a few minutes of the main street of the ancient town with plenty of eateries(though i feel they more or less offered the same stuff). The whole street where this place is located are full of such small hotels. This place is worth a 2nd stay if you are in zhenyuan again

What a beautiful place. As soon we arrived in our room we decided to stay for one more night. The owner is very responsive, helpful and easy to communicate with. He did everything to help us, even booked a transport for us, because there was no bus on our departure day😍😍 We have got a room upgrade and it was amazing, there is a big window with the river and Pagoda view, even when you are laid in the bed. The hotel is 8min walking from the old village gate and 5min from the main road. The Room was great, and very Comfy, with everything we needed. There is free water, and tea on the main hall. Also they offer for free a wash machine for clothes if you want. The terrace on the roof top flor was gorgeous.

I came to Zhenyuan Ancient City for two days and one night, and finally chose the right inn. Mr. Cao at the front desk was friendly and kind, and was happy to explain how to visit the ancient city. The room was very clean and furnished in an antique style. The water pressure for showering is first-rate, and taking a shower is very comfortable and enjoyable. Sitting on the balcony of the room by the water, looking at the beautiful ancient bridge of Zhenyuan, with different scenery in the morning and evening, it feels really great! The location of the inn is very good, there are many restaurants within a short walk. In the folk music cabin opposite, the singing of male and female singers is elegant and unique, very pleasant and attractive. In short, this inn is the best choice for my trip!

You can see the bridge, the scenery is very good It's nice to sit on the balcony. The hotel contacted in advance to inform the parking lot location. The nearest parking lot is three or four hundred meters from the hotel. Bus 1,4 is at the entrance of the hotel, convenient for travel The only thing is that there is no elevator, it is a bit difficult to climb to the top floor with luggage, and everything else is very good.
