Baiyun Lakeside Hotel (Nanhu Tourism Center)

It was a decent stay but the hotel could improve in terms of the old design and a better breakfast.

I chose this hotel because of location despite reading some reviews how the breakfast needs improvements and badly managed by mainland China standard, and now I agree with them. I ended up just taking 1 breakfast out of 3, which was not included in the stay so that I even paid extra, because it was that terrible. Also table was so dirty, another reason why I gave up on eating there. Plus everything was falling apart, like how pavements are broken, closet is broken and many trashes in the hotel complex. I had to talk to staff a lot to make requests such as fixing the safe in the room. Also there was construction work going on, thus noises and there were loud party noises late in the night as well. The location is nice, in the forest although lake is completely disappearing. My room had window blocked by trees which was lovely view and I could have privacy in the room unless I go outside to balcony. The amenities well equipped and there are complementary fruits every day which I had instead of breakfast. Also the housekeeping in the room and the outdoor pool was nice. But right after I checked out the receptionist chased me after and said something was missing inside the room. So they do check very well but why do they not check about trashes, broken pavements and noise concerns. Regarding ‘missing item’, they do label how some stuff are to be paid with the price tag and ‘not gift’ sign and I didn’t take them. So it looked like some misunderstanding and because of language and cultural differences. As international traveler, I had to communicate through smartphone translation and sometimes I could see the translation was getting messed up. Also it looked like I was the only foreigner, most of guests here are locals, as both guests and staff kept on referring me as my nationality amongst themselves. Overall, read the reviews and decide for yourself.

We went to visit a place nearby, the view of the lake is lovely but it’s not close to anything touristy

Very old hotel need renovation

面對南湖，景色無敵，可以看到鴨子在湖邊遊，還有大量的鳥飛，酒店裝修格調低調高雅，有濃濃的春節氣氛，佈置考究年味濃，客房衞生不錯，比較到位，服務員禮貌熱情，笑容很甜，早餐品種豐富，挺合口味，一次非常不錯的體驗，有機會再來。

房間設施齊全，雖然傢俱設施有點舊，但是衞生乾淨，服務熱情周到，前台幫助預訂了次日一大早去機場的出租汽車，準時到達酒店等候，很貼心。下午酒店還温馨送來水果，挺暖心的。而且酒店的景觀很漂亮，離機場方便，很滿意。
