Hotele Boutique w: Shanxi, China

„Location: near LinFenXi High Speed Rail Station 临汾西站(10mins drive/ 20mins by local public transport to LuoGuQiaoTou 锣鼓桥头站). Best is that they provide pick-up and drop-off at HSR station, just make a call 3 hours in advance. I dont have local number, so I email them in advance before my trip, they replied my email and provide me their WeChat number so I can make reservation for the pick-up service at the station. Many local tours have pick-up and drop-off service near the hotel (junction outside the hotel), easy and convenient. Services: warm and welcoming services. Tea and drinks in the lobby, luggage storage as well. Room: clean big room, big screen TV, mini bar fridge, bathrobe and comfy king bed. Lavender shower shampoo, hand soap and body lotion, make me feel so so much relax. Laundry: laundry machine are free of charge (washer and dryer). Laundry room provide ironing equipment, books, drink as well. Definitely not get bored. Otherwise, can use phone connect their website to make a reminder while the laundry have done (so convenient). Gym Room: just opposite and same level of laundry room. Treadmill are so new. Breakfast: varieties of choice. Before that I already crave for coffee since it is not so common to find espresso in the local breakfast restaurant. Salad bar, local meatball soup, noodles, dumplings, wantons, boiled egg, fried egg, fried tomato with egg and local cooked food. So many choice and so satisfying. However they dont have egg omelette, it is fine for me. I found that even though not staying at LinFen city centre, it is still fine to stay here as the traffic here is convenient. And here is more quiet and more relax👍 The only thing I dont like is, some customer smoking in the lift and hotel lobby (even though there is a sign in the lift to advice not to smoke), definitely affecting those unlike smoking smell and sick of cigarette smell like me.”

„This hotel is very large and clean. The rooms were very spacious. The only thing is that the heat is 'on' even if you lower the temperature to its lowest setting. Thankfully there was a window to open even though it was -6° outside. The buffet was great with lots of selections. The one & only restaurant for dinner was great. Their large Asian menu provided pictures of all the dishes. The staff in the restaurant was very friendly & helpful. The pool was nice and clean. There was even a lifeguard on duty. The hot tubs were separate in the men's & ladies' change rooms. The only issue was that the front desk staff was very limited with English and there were no concierge services. Other than that we enjoyed our stay at this hotel.”

„Excellent location being closest branded hotel to the Taiyuan South station where high speed train runs. It is just a short walking distance away from the exit. It is however quite a far walk from the metro exit of the same name due to design of the station walk path. Breakfast is excellent, has plenty of variety. This is a business hotel, so front desk won’t likely be very helpful with your travel advise needs. The room itself is fine and fairly big, but there are details that can be better. For example separator of room and bathroom that can’t be fully closed. Luckily I was staying alone so it didn’t bother me too much.”

„To było najgorsze, najobrzydliwsze doświadczenie hotelowe, jakie kiedykolwiek miałem. Zameldowałem się z rodzicami i dwójką dzieci chwilę po 20:00. Moje najstarsze dziecko zasnęło o 22:00, a około 23:00 dzieci obudziły się z powodu ukąszeń komarów. Moje drugie dziecko również krzyczało z powodu komarów. Po długich poszukiwaniach nie znaleźliśmy w pokoju elektrycznych spiral na komary, więc recepcjonista przyniósł jedną z powrotem. Okazało się, że była całkowicie nieskuteczna. O 2:00 w nocy dzieci miały sześć lub siedem dużych ukąszeń. Moje najstarsze dziecko było tak przytłoczone ukąszeniami podczas snu, że moja babcia i ja na zmianę smarowaliśmy dzieci lekarstwami i drapaliśmy je. Ale to nie było najgorsze. Moja babcia obudziła się w środku nocy i zobaczyła dwa karaluchy wyłażące spod szafki lodówki. Po walce z komarami i karaluchami w końcu zasnęliśmy. Ale potem, około godziny 7 rano, prace budowlane na zewnątrz obudziły wszystkich hukiem i trzaskiem... To było moje najgorsze przeżycie!”

„its very beautiful traditional building from the outside. but the interior is modern. its in the center, easy to access to crowded and animated places. At nightime, the place shine beautifullly, a picture snapshot spot. The room is spaciouse, otherwise it is quiet expensive.”

„The hotel is new and it has all the amenities you need. The staff is willing to help you and go for the extra mile for you, even they speak just a little bit English. Via wechat they send me a lot of extra information. The bed is really comfy, the breakfast is great and also had great coffee in the morning! I would come back for sure”
