Yiju 1983 Hotel (Wuyi Square IFS International Financial Center)

This hotel was the best hotel I stayed in throughout my holiday in China. Unfortunately, I stayed here only for 1 night. The people working at the reception were friendly and helpful. If you have any questions, you can contact them via Wechat. The room was already ready when we checked in so the lights and aircon was on when we entered the room. You can use AI smart control 小度 to control switches or perform various tasks. The beds were comfortable and location is good. It's walking distance from the subway station and various food/shopping streets in the city. The hotel uses Laifen hairdryer, it was so good that I'm thinking of getting one for myself. The welcome snacks were a nice touch and you can get coffee from the reception area.

The main reason we chose this hotel was it’s excellent location (near to the major shopping malls Wangfujing, IFS mall and the famous Taiping street) and after reading several of its positive reviews by the guests. However since the hotel is located in the busy area, the road leading to the hotel was not accessible by car after 8 pm. As such our taxi driver had to stop us a little distance away. So please bear in mind this accessibility issue after 8 pm.. The hotel is located on the fifth floor of a building shared by other businesses. The lifts were old and small. Nevertheless all the initial disappointment faded away upon reaching the hotel. We were greeted by very friendly and helpful staff. The room was a pleasant surprise. It was neat, clean with many unexpected features unlike other hotels of the same category. Facilities are modern, complete and the room well lighted. The bathroom is comfortable, with automated heated toilet seat, and powerful shower facility. Another good feature is the wash basin located outside the toilet. There is also a Laifen hairdryer and even a projector. The service was exceptional with very friendly and helpful staff always offering additional drinking water and providing free laundry service, a highly appreciated

The location was the best thing about this hotel! It’s in the heart of Changsha city right in front of Taiping Street and Pozi Street right behind. Also a 5 minute walk to Huangxing Pedestrian Road and IFS Mall. Because there’s so much around there’s lots to do, see, and eat. However, at night it gets pretty busy and noisy. The noise was too loud in the rooms but noticeable since the hotel is located on the 5th floor of a busy commercial building. The room was kept tidy and nice however you could tell it was old and in need of some repairs. There was a water leak on the ceiling and the walls were quite dirty. But the bedding and towels were clean and the bathroom. The hotel itself needs to be kept clean when I walk to my room there was a big pile of towels on the ground! A little shocking to be greeted by that. It’s a good hotel if you want a good location and cheap place to stay. The hotel staff is very friendly and helpful!
