A Stunning Flower Sea by the Poolside

Bringing the kids to Guangzhuang Shengyue Garden Hotel for some Han-style fun, we were completely charmed by this urban oasis! 🌿 Guangzhuang Shengyue Garden Hotel is truly a hidden gem for niche travelers. 🌳 A Secluded Paradise in the Garden Step through the hotel gates and be instantly transported! The classic Chinese courtyard design, with its white walls and dark tiles, offers endless photo opportunities. We recommend wearing Hanfu or long dresses to effortlessly capture vintage-style shots among the pavilions and waterside terraces. The hotel even has a talented photographer on staff—her work is amazing! Our favorite spot was the water courtyard in the lobby, where morning sunlight filters through the trees onto the pond. Don’t forget to grab some fish food from the front desk—it’s a must! 🏨 Room Experience • Recommended Room: The Lake View Private Hot Spring Room, where you can wake up to views of guests practicing Tai Chi in the opposite courtyard. • Details That Delight: The room comes with a tea set and local specialty plums. The kettle allows precise temperature control from 30°C to 100°C, perfect for brewing different teas or even warming milk for kids! The fridge is stocked with a variety of drinks, including banana milk for children and even sugar-free cola!!! • The bedding is incredibly comfortable, and the dental kit surpasses those at many five-star hotels—no cheap plastic feel here. 🍵 Must-Try Experiences 1. Don’t miss the coffee at Xiecheng Café—the plum coffee is divine. The spiral staircase from the café to the 2nd-floor breakfast area is also super photogenic. 2. The courtyard becomes even more magical after 7 PM when the lanterns light up, casting dreamy reflections on the pond. 3. Hidden Gem: Ask the front desk for unlimited fish food—feeding the koi is incredibly relaxing. 4. Book the photographer in advance to capture all your beautiful moments. 📍 Prime Location • Just a 10-minute taxi ride from the train station. 💡 Pro Tips: • For outdoor photos, choose cooler times—we opted for 5:30 AM. A poetic retreat tucked away in the city’s hustle, offering more charm than any trendy homestay! The ultimate vacation vibe? Strolling through the courtyard in slippers, soaking in the laid-back serenity.
