Inns in Sichuan, China

Discovering this Zen-inspired hotel nestled in the vibrant heart of Wenshu Monastery area was truly the most delightful surprise of my Chengdu trip! Stepping into the courtyard, I was immediately soothed by the grey tiles, white walls, dry landscape garden, and rustic wooden decor. The 'Buddhist Affinity' screen in the lobby and the Four-Faced Buddha statues exuded a tranquil Zen charm, and even the staff's 'Namaste' greetings were incredibly gentle. The room featured a Chinese Zen design with solid wood furniture and a tea set by the window. The bedding was so soft that I slept soundly all night, and from the balcony, I could catch glimpses of the traditional Western Sichuan folk houses in the alleyways. The location is absolutely perfect; it's a 5-minute walk to Wenshu Monastery subway station, surrounded by hot pot restaurants and snack stalls, and just a 10-minute taxi ride to Chunxi Road. Although the breakfast was simple, it was exquisite, offering vegetarian dishes alongside Western pastries, and even the freshly ground coffee was rich and fragrant. The staff also proactively recommended authentic local eateries and hidden gems. To find such a tranquil and conveniently located retreat in the midst of the bustling city, offering both serene Zen ambiance and easy access to urban life, is incredible value for money. I will definitely stay here again on my next visit to Chengdu!

This B&B is truly divine, right in a scenic area, right next to the Minjiang River! There's a parking lot just 50 meters away, making it incredibly lively, with plenty of food options, and most importantly, the views are stunning! The room itself is quite spacious! It even has separate wet and dry areas! The small balcony is absolutely stunning, making it incredibly cozy! It's clean, the bedding is very comfortable, and I slept very well. The soundproofing is a little lacking, but it really doesn't affect me. I wasn't woken by anything.

This hostel is an absolute must-visit in Chengdu!!! 😍 I was genuinely impressed. I arrived quite late, but the place was super easy to find right by the road, and the decor was really stylish. Downstairs, there's a cozy little bar with a great atmosphere – having a drink there in the evening was incredibly relaxing! Upstairs are the rooms, and the whole hallway was very clean, tidy, and quiet. The mattress was thick and comfortable 😌. There's a washing machine and dryer, plus a gym! They even gave me a free coffee in the morning ☕️. The value for money is amazing; I had a wonderful stay.

This is the third time I have stayed here. I like the environment here very much. The room is simple and clean. The most important thing is that there is a slide in the room. The children like it very much. The view from the room is very good. The most important thing is that the food is delicious and the boss is nice. It's also very nice and the stay is very comfortable.

The hotel is close to the entrance of the ancient city, convenient for access and good hygiene. The receptionist was very enthusiastic and upgraded the room. The only thing is that the soundproofing is not very good. The door opening noise is loud when entering and exiting, and there are occasional noises downstairs. Disposable earplugs are provided in the room.

The hotel is in the great location and you feel like you moved in time. Room is clean and shower works well. Beautiful courtyard downstairs. Breakfast let us down. There was no fresh orange juice or average food. The room can get hot even with air conditioner on. I did not find it as an issue but if you plan to arrive in August or June it could be a problem. There is a cosy wibe in this place and we would come back. Price is excellent.

We all loved staying here in this beautiful hotel. Traditional decoration on the outside with modern comfort and convenience on the inside. Such a cosy place with thoughtfully designed rooms. Heated floors were incredible during our winter stay. Shower was spacious with instant hot water and strong water pressure. Host was very helpful and welcoming. Short walk to a couple of restaurants and small supermarkets/mini mart. Free shuttle to the entrance of JZG. We also used their paid pick up/drop off service from the hsr station which was very convenient with a good safe driver and car. Felt very well taken care of at this accommodation. Recommended without hesitation for all travellers visiting JZG.

The room was quite nice, with one bedroom, one living room, and one bathroom. It was clean and tidy, and there was a yard where you could drink tea, chat, and just relax. It was right in the ancient town, which was very convenient. The owner was very nice. We parked our car in the parking lot, and the owner came over on a tricycle to pick us up with our luggage. The layout of the town is pretty good, with many paid attractions, but they are all newly built and feel average. I wanted to fly a drone, but found it was a no-fly zone, which was a pity.

The paid parking lot provided by the B&B is about a ten-minute walk from the B&B. The walk up a slope, down stairs, and the uneven stone path aren't ideal for carrying luggage. I requested to make the bed in advance during booking, but it wasn't made upon arrival. The waiter said the owner hadn't told me otherwise. The tatami bed was very hard. No mattress or quilt was provided, just a thin layer of cushioning. I tried it, but it was too hard to sleep on. I asked the waiter to add an extra quilt, which was enough to get me through the night. Suggestion: Buying a removable mattress is inexpensive. If the cost is too high, the room can be sold at a higher price, but don't let people sleep poorly. The upper half of the room door is carved with openwork, but there are no curtains inside. It faces the tatami bed on the first floor, and the glare in the morning makes it difficult to sleep.

The staff were incredibly warm and welcoming. While they might have been a bit chatty, you could tell they genuinely cared about their guests. The room was very clean, and there was plenty of hot water. It's also super close to the Changpinggou scenic area. The restaurant downstairs is fantastic too, definitely lives up to its top rating on Dazhong Dianping!
