Wuhan Optics Valley Hilton Hotel: The Ideal Choice for Family Trips and Vacations
🏘️ Room Type/Layout:
We stayed in a King Lake View Room with a well-designed layout. The balcony offers a wide view of the beautiful scenery. The room has sufficient air conditioning, and the bathroom is equipped with an extra-large bathtub, which is very comfortable. Some guests mentioned that they booked a basic room for 600 yuan and successfully upgraded to a suite through the app, with a price difference of about 700 yuan on that day. The suite is spacious, with a one-bedroom, one-living room, and two-bathroom configuration, along with a balcony and a dressing table, and offers excellent views. However, there were some scratches on the wooden floor in the room, and the maintenance could be improved. The hotel building is not very tall, but each floor has many rooms, so you need to walk a long distance in the corridor after getting out of the elevator to reach your room.
🛌 Amenities/Facilities:
The room was stocked with six bottles of mineral water, which was enough for our daily drinking needs. Some guests reported that if they had any other needs, the staff responded quickly to their calls to the front desk. The hotel offers a wide variety of facilities, catering to both family fun and individual leisure. Indoor facilities include a children's playground, an indoor swimming pool, a gym, sandbag tossing, an archery range, a video game room, and a ping pong room. There's also a firefly exploration tour in the evening (starting at 7:30 pm). Outdoor activities include a small train, an outdoor swimming pool, rock climbing, jungle trekking, fish feeding, creek hiking, and go-karting, truly freeing up parents' hands. In addition, the hotel also has a gym to meet the fitness needs of different guests.
🧹 Soundproofing/Hygiene:
The overall hygiene is good, the rooms are clean and tidy, and there is no odor in the bathroom. The soundproofing is also quite good; you can barely hear any noise from outside in the room, providing a quiet resting environment for guests.
💰️ Average Cost Per Person:
The price for a basic room is about 600 yuan. If you want to upgrade your room type, you may need to pay an additional fee, such as the 700 yuan price difference for upgrading to a suite on the same day. Accommodation includes breakfast. For dining, if you order from the Chinese restaurant, the price will depend on the dishes you choose. Overall, the price is reasonable compared to similar family resort hotels.
💗 Other Tips:
1. Dining Experience: The included breakfast offers a wide variety of options. Chinese options include beef noodle soup, porridge, tofu pudding, and various fried, steamed, and deep-fried snacks. Western options include coffee, milk, bread, cakes, sausages, bacon, and fruit and vegetable salads. There's something for everyone. For dinner, you can order from the Chinese restaurant, which offers Sichuan cuisine, Cantonese dim sum, seafood, and more, catering to both children and adults. The ingredients are fresh, and the food tastes good. Some guests also commented that the lounge food is decent, and the breakfast includes Wuhan-style noodles, fried snacks, and other hot dishes of high quality.
2. Activity Suggestions: Pack several sets of swimwear and a change of clothes. Remember to bring a swimming cap, as it is required for swimming in the indoor pool. You can get one activity voucher per day at the hotel, and two vouchers for a one-night stay, which can be collected on the day of check-in and the day of check-out, respectively. Also, don't forget to get a parking ticket if you are driving.
3. Location: The hotel is located in a relatively remote area, owned by Country Garden, and surrounded by Country Garden villas. However, this also gives it a sense of tranquility, making it ideal for a relaxing vacation.
Overall, the Wuhan Optics Valley Hilton Hotel stands out for its resort-like atmosphere, beautiful scenery, and abundant recreational activities. It is highly recommended for both family trips and staycations for local residents. I highly recommend everyone to experience it!
