Yakamoz Qianchuan Hotel

It’s so peaceful here being surrounded by mountains of bamboo and gentle sound of nearby stream. A special thanks goes to Mr. Qiao at the reception, who was attentive and thoughtful throughout our stay. He responded to every request promptly and went above and beyond by sharing recommendations for local activities, making us feel genuinely looked after rather than just checked in. We were also lucky enough to be looked after by KK, a staff member with an infectious enthusiasm for the local area. He introduced us to 拓印, a traditional crafting art we’d never tried before, and led us on a memorable walk to the nearby river and mountain. Along the way, he shared his extensive knowledge of local plants — it felt like exploring with a knowledgeable friend. We’re grateful for his time and passion. As for the room — it lived up to every word of its description, The highlight part: A cherry tree in full blossom right outside our balcony. Waking up to that view each morning was nothing short of magical.

Located about an hour from Hangzhou, this hotel is nestled in a tranquil yet charmingly lively small town. I came for the scenery and unique experience, and it exceeded all my expectations. Upon arrival, we were warmly greeted by the front desk staff, Xiao Qiao(小乔), who was already waiting for us. As we stepped inside, we were offered comfortable slippers to change into—a thoughtful touch that set the tone for the stay. I had booked a duplex mountain-view room, which was a perfect retreat. The first floor featured a spacious floor-to-ceiling window, ideal for enjoying tea, soaking in the serene scenery, and unwinding. Upstairs, the loft came with a skylight and a cozy lazy sofa, making it an inviting space for reading or watching movies. The private hot spring experience, Qingquan Shishang Tang, was truly exceptional. Our reserved session began promptly, and the outdoor views were breathtaking. The space was impeccably clean, and the added option to connect a speaker and play music enhanced the relaxing atmosphere. The dining experience was equally impressive. Both dinner and breakfast were delightful. The host had thoughtfully inquired about dietary preferences beforehand and confirmed the menu and any necessary substitutions, which I greatly appreciated. The dishes were delicious, with the lamb soup being a standout. The service throughout the stay was outstanding. Xiao Qiao was always available via chat to address any questions or concerns, responding promptly and helpfully every time. Overall, this was an unforgettable experience, and I look forward to returning for another visit in the future.

Bamboo raft afternoon tea is very pleasant and relaxed.

The design and service are excellent, the soup house and the bamboo raft are amazing!
