Chengyun Yuexi Resort

Short walk from Rainbow Bridge, and along the way there are plenty of eateries. Bus to railway station is just in front of the hotel. Overall it is a very convenient location to stay. Room is clean and big. Bed is very firm and comfortable. Shower room is on the other side away from the basin and toilet and there are no hooks for the towels. Breakfast is buffet style with simple spread.

Good locality, right beside the high speed railway station shuttle bus terminal.The front desk lady is very helpful. The buffet breakfast is good.

Good location if you want to be near the ancient town, but in a quiet spot. The main bus stop is right outside the hotel and the ancient town is about a two minute walk. Room is large and modern and bed is comfortable. You won't have much of a view on the backside of the hotel, and the front is likely to be a bit noisy with the bus stop during the day and the Aunties dancing in the square in the evening. It was nice that they gave a parting gift of local delicacies when we checked out. A few improvements needed: 1. Hooks, or hanging racks, for towels at the shower and the sink. There is no way to dry a towel after a shower. 2. Wash cloth. For a nice hotel, a wash cloth (or face cloth) should be provided. They are not expensive. 3. The water in the shower will be affected by the toilet flushing and the sink faucet. It will get very hot. Quite a surprise given that this is a new hotel. 4. Car service, especially to the train station. We asked the front desk to call us a taxi. Their response was to walk us to the main road, which is likely 300 to 400 metres. Not ideal with two suitcases and several bags of merchandise. It also took some time to get a taxi, which made us start to worry that we might not arrive in time for our train. Note that when you arrive at the drop off are for the train station, it is quite a long walk across a square to the station itself. Be sure to leave an extra 5 minutes for this. 5. Communication. When communicating with the hotel prior to arrival, we asked for a room on the top floor, which is the 5th floor. We were assured this would be arranged. However, on arriving at the hotel, we were initially assigned a room on the 4th floor. We mentioned the earlier conversation and were initially told there were no rooms available on the 5th floor. It wasn't until another attendant arrived, and seemed to check a chat history on the computer, that we were given a room on the 5th floor. 6. Sound insulation. While the room is quiet, the noise from the hallway can be easily heard due to poor insulation around the doors. All in all a good stay but some improvements needed.
