GGGenGreat pet friendly stay in the mountains with free parking and amazing JiangXi food that we just had to order everyday.
The drive up was easy, air was fresh and it wasn’t hot at all despite the 40degree heat. Only 1hr drive to 武功山, a very quick drive to town and they even gave gifts when we left.
The down sides were, being a homestay, it’s so friendly there wasn’t much service. They din contact us beforehand, some homestay owners will enquire arrival time so they can welcome us, especially with steps leading up to the accommodation. The 2 ladies reacted like we weren’t expected, the butler had no smile and didn’t offer to help us carry our luggages up the stairs to our room, until I mentioned I will make a 2nd trip down. No one informed us there will be 2 dozen moths entering the room at night because we had the aircon on. Well, it’s summer…. Luckily we are both not scared of them, I can already imagine my screaming friends had it been them. I spent most of the 1st night clearing the moths. The 2nd night was better with only about 10 moths after the housekeeping lady told us to block the bottom of the door.
We informed them we will only have their set breakfast on the 2nd morning, and they were so nice to cook us a bowl of noodles when we asked for breakfast on the 1st morning after we came back early from 武功山. Sadly when we went down for breakfast on the 2nd morning, there were no one around, and when we asked the butler if there is breakfast , his reply was like “think should have”. 😅 It’s around 30km for nearest takeaway so we munched on what we brought. It’s a 1.5hrs wait until we heard commotion and went to take a look, yes breakfast is ready.
I knew they never read my request when they were a tad surprised we brought our pet along. I mentioned ahead we were there to celebrate my daughter’s birthday. I didn’t expect a cake or surprise, a simple decoration in the room or just a birthday wish when we check in would have been so nice, especially since it’s the actual day. Nothing.. No helping with luggage after check out either.
Overall still a lovely stay, will consider coming back if we need a pet friendly place.
SStanley The Travel ManTrip.com shows an average score of 4.7/5.0 . I personally think it deserves a 5.0.
When I looked at the posted pictures, I wasn’t really impressed. When I went inside the room I was astonished at how nice the room actually look. The room look much better than the pictures. The look of the 2nd floor on the side of the 民宿 facing the street is not good but once you step inside, you will enter into a very beautiful lobby and then further in the rooms.
I am picky about the workmanship of the room . The room is quite well built and it is hard to find any flaw.
The room design is aesthetically beautiful. It is pleasing to the eyes. The white wall gives me a cheerful mood. The expansive windows offers an excellent view and a lot of natural light. The room is bright with bedside buttons to turn off the necessary lights when I went to bed. There are lounge areas where one can relax and enjoy the tranquil ambience.
I like the shower area separates from the toilet . The shower stall has a door so area in front of the toilet remains dry after shower.
The location can’t be beat . It is very close , within walking distance of all major attractions. The street is full of antique stores but within 10 to 15 minutes you can find many food options.
There was daily house keeping. Garbage was disposed and towels replaced during my stay. The cleaning crew really did a great job.
I saw 3 different persons at the reception desk. They were all very helpful and kind. I have asked him to show me how to shut the window, turn on the heater etc and he came right away to help.
The included daily breakfast offers a range of choices.
I love this hotel and wish that I could stay longer. Many thanks to the staff of the 民宿for their hardwork .
ผผู้เข้าพักThis beautifully and lovingly restored traditional house is located in a charming village right on the riverbank. The room was tastefully furnished and spotlessly clean.
The hosts were incredibly friendly, dedicated, and always ready to help. The food, prepared with fresh ingredients from their own garden and the local area, was the best we had during our four weeks in China.
Our stay was absolutely wonderful, and I would love to come back to this hotel anytime.
NNorm & SabWe visited Jingdezhen for two days in early September and had a lovely stay at Nanshe Bieyuan Homestay. It was one of the most comfortable experiences we’ve had at a hotel. The rooms were extremely clean and designed very thoughtfully. Everything was comfortable to use from the bed to the shower to the side table–and the room’s temperature was perfect! The amenities were also great, we loved the shower gels and were also able to wash our clothes after a long week of travel. We used their laundry machine, dryer, and outdoor clothing rod (for garments that cannot be machine dried). The location is also super convenient as it is close to key attractions and delicious food. We were able to walk to the Taoxichaun night market as well as most of our meals within 5 minutes and Didi was accessible to anywhere further.
As a bonus, the hosts/owners were a super kind couple who were endlessly welcoming to us every time we encountered them. They greeted us warmly, gave us recommendations for our itinerary and meals. They helped us carry our luggage as well as store them during pre and post check-in. They always made sure we were stocked with what we needed such as water and snacks (including their homemade mung bean drink)! We also received two cute bracelets as a trinket gift :). Lastly, they have a cute dog named Cola who was so gentle and affectionate. We loved interacting with her as she reminded of us our dog at home!
Thank you again for the lovely stay. I would recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Jingdezhen.
