Scenic Hotels in Yuanyang

"An unforgettable stay with a wonderful family We spent our stay at this hotel as a couple and were absolutely thrilled! Upon arrival, we were warmly welcomed by the hosts, which immediately created a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. What was particularly great was that our host, despite our lack of Chinese, was very keen to explain a lot about the area and give us valuable tips. Thanks to the translator app, this worked really well. He and his wife are incredibly kind and make every effort to make our stay as pleasant as possible without making us feel cramped. A real highlight was our room. The view of the surrounding rice terraces was breathtaking! On a clear morning, you can witness a true natural spectacle. The glass front of the room offers a fantastic view. If you want a little more privacy, you can simply draw the curtains. This honestay is the perfect place to experience traditional Hani life and, in the truest sense of the word, slow down. Our hosts took us to the market in the neighboring town and explained the local specialties to us – it was a wonderful experience. The room itself was particularly comfortable: A heated mattress that could be individually adjusted ensured cozy evenings in bed while also allowing fresh air into the room. The stay was so pleasant that we spontaneously decided to extend our stay by a day – and that was absolutely the right decision! We are very happy to have chosen this accommodation. Many thanks again to our wonderful hosts – you made our stay unforgettable!"

"This time I came to Yuanyang with my parents to take pictures of the rice terraces. I started looking at many B&Bs and finally chose Yunshuiyuan, which had just opened. The living environment and rooms are consistent with the pictures, the facilities are new, and the sanitary environment is very clean. I like the decoration style very much, and the various facilities are beautifully arranged. There are also out-of-print hardcover books introduced by the Hani people in the room. Compared with the parking situation on the roadside in the surrounding small inns and B&Bs, in terms of safety, Yunshuiyuan has an independent courtyard parking space monitoring system, which is very safe. The surrounding transportation is convenient, and you can reach Duoyishu Scenic Area in five minutes' drive in the morning. We went there for two days in a row. Unlike what Xiao said in the book, we could go there at 4 o’clock to take pictures. Instead, we could find a very good location by 6 o’clock. It is also very close to other tourist attractions. In terms of catering, the B&B will have its own restaurant in the future. Currently, there is Yunnan cuisine outside the B&B that ranks first in the Dianping area. It is a two-minute walk away, which is very convenient. Unexpected gain: Later I learned that the owner’s positioning of the B&B is also to promote national culture. I was very surprised. The boss enthusiastically also gave us cultural and creative weekly films made from old ethnic embroidery films, which was super awesome 👍"

"Facility: Yuanyang Rice Terraces, a world cultural heritage site Hygiene: Very clean, full of negative ions, much better than city B&Bs. Environment: Retaining the traditional humanities of Hani and Yi Autonomous Region Service: I am traveling by car from Guangdong. The owner, Ms. Yang, is my harvest from this trip. Her sweet smile, clear eyes, simplicity and kindness of ethnic minorities, and warm hospitality for our arrival are all deeply engraved in our hearts. If you haven't arrived at the store, please contact us to arrange dining with a view, and we will communicate with you when you arrive at the store. The overall feeling is great! As a hotelier for 17 years, although I have been to many different places and countries, I feel more sincere about the majestic mountains and rivers of our motherland. I am very happy to meet you and welcome you to come to Guangdong. I also hope that friends from Guangdong will come here to play and relax when they are tired from work in Yunnan."

"It was a pleasant stay in Hua wowo hotel. Air quality was super good there. It was the best place for watching the sunrising in the yard or in the room of the hotel, very nice view. Room was very clean and the bed was very comfortable. It was a quiet place for holidays. Hotel restaurant offered local planted vegetables and local raised fishes from the terraces. The owner and other staffs of the hotel were very friendly and helpful. We will choose the same hotel if we visit again."

"When we got to the parking lot, a staff member helped us take the suitcase to the hotel. The road was about 600 meters long. It was fine when we went there, downhill all the way, and it was basically uphill when we left, so we still felt very tired. The terraced field view room is on the first line, and you can see the sea of ​​clouds at any time. You can walk to the Azheke Intangible Cultural Heritage Ancient Village in a few steps. The store manager and restaurant waiters are very enthusiastic. It would be better if the price-performance ratio was higher. I will come again in the future."

"The room is really well designed, with two large floor-to-ceiling windows. The room is also very large, and you can see a forest. However, the functionality and hygiene are not very good. The sink is too shallow and water will spill on the floor. The sheets make our skin itchy when we sleep on them. , I don’t know if it’s a bug or something. There is also the geographical location. It is a few kilometers away from Duoyishu, the sunrise point. You have to drive there. There is only one restaurant within walking distance, which is expensive and not delicious. There is a paid fish pond next to it for fishing. There is no parking lot, so you can only park on the side of the road. It may be difficult to park if there are many cars. Yuanshan boutique afternoon tea [pick up at the front desk]: I didn’t look at it and didn’t ask. Travel planner service: It seems there is no such service. I asked myself where I wanted to go."

"This stay was absolutely impeccable! From the moment I booked, the customer service patiently answered all my questions, and their attentive service put me at ease. Upon arrival, the doorman warmly greeted me and offered to help with my luggage. The front desk swiftly checked me in and even provided a guide and a custom map of the surrounding area. The room was impeccably clean, the welcome fruit plate was fresh and exquisite, and even the night light was perfectly placed. The dining service was also excellent, with the chef recommending dishes based on my taste buds. The experience was truly captivating! The entire experience was attentive and natural, and every touch exuded professionalism and warmth. Five stars is a must! I would definitely stay here again!"

"This hotel is very well located, just next to the main road and only 100 meters from the scenic platform, making it super convenient for visiting the famous rice terraces. Breakfast is served in a small restaurant downstairs, offering a Chinese-style noodle soup. The staff were very helpful—the lady at the reception arranged a van for me to return to Mengzi since there’s no fixed bus schedule in the area. The rooms have a nice view of the terraces and nearby towns, though some buildings partially block the scenery. The only downside was the bathroom—when taking a shower, water splashed all over the floor because there wasn’t a proper shower enclosure. A glass partition or curtain would really improve this. Overall, a good stay thanks to the great location and helpful service, just needs a small upgrade in the bathroom!"

"The service provided by the boss is very, very OK. It is worth my driving thousands of miles to come to this world cultural heritage. The meaning of journey is to discover, there are surprises and disappoin**ents. When you fall asleep with anticipation all night, you will find that you can't sleep at all. Every time you open the curtains, it will give you a feeling of surprise. The word ”beautiful” cannot be used here, because it is not enough to describe its stunning beauty. Only surprise can match the indescribable scenery of the terraced fields illuminated by the morning light. On the sightseeing road, it is strongly recommended that all drivers and passengers open the windows, blow the wind, and face the original fragrance of trees, flowers and plants. Please forget your worries and immerse yourself in the sea of ​​clouds in the morning and the sunset in the evening. When you check out, the boss will give you red rice 😄. In summary: it is not unaffordable to live in more than 1,000, and this location is really more cost-effective."

"We loved our stay. It was Chinese New Year so it was a bit busy in the area, but our hotel was an oasis. We found the hotel staff helpful and accommodating. This hotel is a good location if you want to hike through the rice terraces and from village to village."
