JJohnTingFirstly the reason why my wife and I decided on this boutique hotel was to sample the overall standard of the new crop of small locally operated boutique hotels springing out over China.
Generally happy with our choice and decision.
We were greeted upon checking in and daily when we went out and coming back by the young man who was managing the establishment.
A great personal touch was that he actually came out of his office and greeted us at the courtyard with a ready smile.
Location was good as it was relatively near to Longmen Grotto and also the famous lamb soup for breakfast (we were given complimentary vouchers for our first day breakfast by the hotel. Although the place was across the road from the hotel, we had to walk about 1.1km each way as the crossing could only be made at the traffic light zebra crossing.
One ”romantic” feeling my wife and I had was hearing the low rumbling of the freight train transversing across the hotel. It reminded us of staying in the English countryside and hearing the train in the distance.
Light sleepers might find this distracting but we are h
eavy sleepers.
Another selling point of this hotel was the well manicured courtyard planted with lots of different varieties of flowering plants and trees.
It was an excellent place for us to relax in the late afternoon after some heavy sightseeing.
The only downside and hopefully the hotel operator can improve is that the floor of the room seems to be a bit dusty because the floor towel in the washroom started to show stains of dust.
However, everything else is clean especially the important items like bedding and towels.

CCandyTooExceptional Stay with Outstanding Hospitality – A Hidden Gem in Luoyang!
My husband and I had an amazing stay at this accommodation in Luoyang. The location is excellent—close to the metro yet nestled in a peaceful neighborhood, making it convenient yet relaxing.
Our room was spacious, clean, and very comfortable, which was a pleasant surprise. However, what truly made our stay unforgettable was the staff’s genuine warmth and attentiveness. They didn’t just meet our needs—they went far beyond with heartfelt service.
For example, when we asked to reheat our takeaway food, they not only did so gladly but also presented it beautifully on a plate and delivered it to our room like complimentary room service. Another time, we forgot our clothes in the dryer, and the staff didn’t just collect them—they pressed and neatly hung everything in our room! These small but thoughtful gestures made us feel incredibly well taken care of.
If you’re looking for a place with great location, clean and spacious rooms, and service that comes from the heart, we couldn’t recommend this accommodation more highly. It’s the kind of hospitality that turns a good trip into a truly special one!
