3-Star Hotels in Yingde

This famous hotel is the best inn I have ever stayed in. Because the traffic jam came late, I didn’t expect the boss to wait for us at the front desk. I also upgraded our room for free. The most surprising thing is that there are moon cakes and sugar water for us. The lobby manager and the boss are very friendly. I gave my baby a lot of food and balloons, the whole feeling is very good, really worth recommending! (Thank you the innkeeper and staff for waiting for us so late ～)

I had a great experience! We booked both the 'Ant Nest' and a standard twin room, and each had its own unique charm. The 'Ant Nest' was really fun; if you're traveling with kids, they can sleep on the sofa. The twin room was very comfortable and spacious. The guesthouse itself is quite smart/automated, and the views are absolutely top-notch. It's perfect for taking lots of photos, and watching the sunset was beautiful. The breakfast was quite tasty too! I'd definitely come back for a second stay.

What an amazing place with amazing staff who made the experience that much better. The rooms were everything we could ask for, modern and very clean with great amenities. The private hot spring alone is absolutely worth visiting too. The surrounding area is beautiful too with lots to see and do but would definitely need to rent a car as some things are far away. The staff were incredible in every way. Before our stay I asked one of the staff members called Min if she could order flowers for a special occasion and she did so without hesitation and placed them in the room upon our arrival.She was so helpful and kind throughout the whole stay, telling us the best places to visit and restaurant to go out. She even went as far as helping us order dinner at the local restaurant when we were struggling too due to our lack of speaking Chinese. The breakfast was also delicious as well and the coffee shop where it is served has great coffee and lovely pastries. I couldn’t recommend this place more for a nice weekend away in nature.

The rooms are small but clean and tidy, and there's a shuttle bus service/welcome gift! ^_^ There's only one restaurant, and takeout is practically nonexistent! The snacks served are quite oily. Driving is recommended! **Fenglin Xiaozhen Ticket for 2 Adults + 1 Child (under 1.2 meters):** Included in the room package; the entire scenic area is relatively flat and open! All activities are chargeable (mini-train/go-karting/hot air balloon/gliding/cable car/off-road vehicles, etc.). Some free activities are a bit desolate (pet park) or good for taking photos. In spring, there are rapeseed flowers/cherry blossom forests, and in summer, there are lotus ponds—it sounds like a beautiful scene! **South China Night Pearl for 2 Adults + 1 Child:** Free activity **Red History and Culture Experience for 2 Adults + 1 Child:** Free activity Nearby attractions include Xiaohuashan Via Ferrata climbing/Dongtian Wonderland. **Recommended itinerary:** 2-3 days for a single scenic area, 3-4 days for nearby attractions. Would love to come back! It caters to all ages, from thrilling activities and Instagrammable spots to a relaxed lifestyle and family-friendly options – highly recommended!

An incredible gem of a boutique hotel, run by a friendly host who anticipates and caters to your needs. This hotel is nestled between idyllic hills and farms, and a 20min stroll (or rent their bikes at 60rmb/day) to HuangHua where there’re great restaurants and supermarkets. It was exactly what we did not know we were looking for in a short getaway from HK to Yingde. The hotel itself is clean and modern, and the food was a pleasant surprise. Being foreigners used to western-style breakfast, we were initially apprehensive while booking, but the farm-to-table, home-cooked breakfast turned out to be absolutely delicious, such that we found ourselves looking forward to it on our second morning. We felt like we lucked out with this accommodation choice, as just within walking distance from the hotel, the host brought us to local hiking trails with quite the view (tip: go at sunrise, and if conditions are right you’ll get to see the “sea of clouds”), a climbing crag and an amazing cave you’ll have to yourself. The host, who turned out to be quite the explorer and adrenaline junkie in her younger years, happily took us to them, also showing us photo spots along the way. But perhaps the best kept secret of this hotel is hinted in its name itself. From its roof terrace, we saw shooting stars fly by above the glow of the region’s famous karst.

Our two days at T Manor Tent camp were very enjoyable, with lots of peaceful walks through the plantation and some spectacular sunsets seen from our glamping tent and from the viewing area at the top of the hill which looks out over the karst-studded landscape. Our tent was located down below which was less spectacular than the tents on the hill but also less exposed and a good option. We had great service from the T Manor staff, who set up a WeChat thread so my husband could communicate with us easily as most of them didn’t speak English. One exception was Allen, a tour guide from Taiwan who was very friendly and helpful, especially on the last day when he helped organise a car to take us to our next accommodation a few hours drive away. A special mention must also go to the restaurant staff, who served us a range of tea-infused dishes and patiently went along with our many queries (our daughter is coeliac which made eating in China a little complicated). Thank you T Manor for a serene and friendly experience, we particularly loved listening to the sound of the bees pollinating the tea bushes as we eat on the veranda of our tent and looked out over the plantation.

The hotel was very clean and the staff was very welcoming. They even helped us carry our luggage to our room. There was complementary tea and showergel in the room, which we enjoyed. The room itself was spacious and comfortable. The manager Rachel even invited us for local dinner and breakfast, which we really enjoyed! All in all it was a pleasant stay! Happy to come again!

4. This is the second time I stayed at this Vienna Hotel. Both times I came with my children. The handsome guy at the front desk remembered that we had been there last time and gave us two buffet breakfasts. Haha, I was very happy. I booked a twin bed and put them together for my child to sleep in. It's very big and we can roll around as much as we want, haha ​​(my baby is quite naughty). The next day we went to the restaurant for breakfast. My son liked the spring rolls very much. The aunt said they were handmade and the ingredients were very fresh. Haha, I felt safe eating them. Next time I come to Yingde with my baby's father, I will book this store.

Having stayed in several other log cabin villas, this one had the largest rooms, and the cleanliness was better than expected. Many other log cabins like this tend to be damp and have naturally occurring spots, but I didn't notice any here. The design offered good privacy, with vegetation covering the entire perimeter and the sound of a clear stream nearby. Although the entire grounds weren't large, I ended up walking around several times after dinner. The breakfast selection was limited, a common issue with these secluded manor-style guesthouses, but the stir-fried rice noodles were quite good, and the pumpkin pancakes and fried tofu were freshly made and very fragrant. Nearby is the Jiuchongtian Cave, which is worth a visit; the ceiling at the deepest part of the cave is truly spectacular. It's a great place for couples or solo travelers to explore and stay.

Nestled in the woods, it's a perfect spot for relaxation. Although the buildings are a bit dated, the environment is truly wonderful, brimming with negative ions. The second day's hiking trip was also a test of physical endurance. A resort definitely worth a second visit.
