I had a wonderful stay at the hotel! The rooms were very nice, spacious, and offered the most beautiful view of the lake and mountains. Just a small detail, it would be great if they had a retractable clothesline sometimes for quick laundry needs. The cleanliness could use a bit more attention to detail, but overall, it was fantastic. The staff was friendly and helpful, although there was a complaint about payment which was a bit off-putting. The location was superb, with bars and restaurants nearby for a great evening out. The dining experience was delightful, offering a wide variety of Western and Chinese options, perfect for all guests. The facilities were top-notch as well.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positive and negative experiences. The rooms, although not at the same standard as the one originally booked, are clean and the bed is very comfy. The spacious room was a plus, but the bathroom with a small bath and separate shower was a bit disappointing. The service was top-notch with friendly and efficient staff, making my stay very nice. The location, facing the lake, was superb for enjoying relaxing walks and jogging. The dining experience was more than adequate with a wide variety of options but may get a bit crowded at times. The facilities were well-equipped overall.

My stay at the hotel was absolutely fabulous! The rooms were clean, comfortable, and offered a lovely view of the lake, although they could use a bit more attention to detail on cleanliness. The only drawback was that the room was too warm at times. The service was exceptional, with the staff being very kind and helpful. The concierge was super nice and always ready to assist, making my stay truly memorable. As for the location, it couldn't have been better, facing the lake and offering a superb experience with great walking and jogging paths around the lake to see the non-business side of China. However, the dining experience, while perfectly equipped and offering a wide variety, was a bit limited with no egg station available.
