Nanjing Tulou cultural center · 1949 Resort

I had an absolutely lovely stay at the Nanjing Tulou Cultural Centre 1945 Resort. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The hotel is located right between two of the popular areas and it is easy to walk to both! The food at the restaurant we delicious for both dinner and breakfast, and the drinks service at the bar was also brilliant, sourcing fresh ingredients direct from the garden for cocktails! The room was huge, very clean and well presented. I’d be more than happy to stay here again.

As it wasn't a busy time and we were staying for a whole week, on check they upgraded us to the Wooden Loft Family Room, which was quite nice. The room was comfortable with big windows and a nice view across the stream to the forest. It was great to have a washing machine and the washing machine had a dryer function as well so we could still dry our clothes when it was cloudy and cool. The smart toilet was a bit disappointing as the controller wasn't very responsive and the flush was very weak. The tub was nice though the water was not quite hot enough to make it comfortable. Most of all we enjoyed the courtyard area and the breakfast/restaurant area, especially the tea room. They are really well designed and organized and provide a nice space to relax and read and write. The breakfast was quite nice, they provide a serving size based on the number of people, though it was often not enough for us and we normally asked for another serving. They also brought a fruit and yogurt platter to the room in evenings which we also enjoyed. The location is convenient to walk down to the Yuchanglou Tulou in Xiabancun, though part of the way will be on the main road which can be busy with traffic. To get to other areas such as Tianluokeng and Taxiacun it is also possible to walk, though again sometimes you have to walk on the main road as there is no walking path or small side road. There is a tourist bus service that goes between the scenic spots and you can even flag them down in between though you are supposed to have purchased a transportation ticket first and that is not striaghtforward to get if you didn't get it in advance. So, most guests come with their own car or rent one. If arriving by train, while trip.com shows the Yongding and Longshan railway stations as the closest, actually the quickest and most convenient station is the one at Nanjing. Also, because the hotel is within the scenic area you do need to purchase tickets to enter, either online tickets or paper tickets at the gate.

It's not an easy place to reach if, like us, you are a family of 6 with a baby and a lorry load of luggage. We arrived by high speed train at Nanjing (Fujian) and found a taxi to take us to the hotel (one way ¥260, negotiated from ¥300). The journey was around 2 hours on winding and slow roads (on the way back we took the high speed motorway which reduced the journey time to around an hour). The hotel is in a rural location off the main tourist areas. We arrived later than expected but we were able to get dinner. The food is exceptional. The chicken in particular is delicious. We booked a family room with a slide. Our children would of happily spent the entire stay in the room playing on the slide. I've stayed in many 5 star branded hotels and yet this guesthouse has so many little extras, gadgets and technology than most. The password keypad door handle is perhaps the most over complicated means of opening a door, but I applaud the dedication to style and design. The toilet has a Japanese style multifunction thing going on. It took me a long time to figure out how to flush it. The toilet seat lifts when you open the door! The TV is a large projection on the wall. Not being Chinese I struggled to figure how to get regular TV channels. Everything I found required pay to view. It was a nice and clear projection however, and if able to understand the programming it would be amazing. We enjoyed 2 days touring various Tulou's. There are many within a short drive, though behind the hotel there is a small village with Tulou and earth buildings that make for a lovely walk. Overall, a great guesthouse with trendy vibes and family friendly facilities. Very comfortable stay.

Absolutely recommended place. The buildings and the room are lovely. It is and old house renovated with beautiful details. The chef cooks delicious local plates. They can find you a driver if you need to move around. Would love to come back anytime !

小朋友要看《阿圓的家》帶着繪本就來了。酒店在南靖田螺坑土樓景區內。自駕很好找，個人感覺比雲水謠景區更好，人少景美。到塔下村也很近，可以騎行或者步行都可，去看個七百年東邪西歪屹立不倒的裕昌樓，去小橋流水飯店吃個飯，開車的話注意違停。去田螺坑“四菜一湯”也很方便，開車十分鐘。土樓真的很壯觀！度假村老闆娘很奈斯，還有一衹大金毛叫小柴。很親人，脾氣好。房間訂了個複式的，下面是客廳，上面睡覺。還有投影儀，超級贊。關鍵房間還有洗烘一體機，這個配置真是太好了。

1949度假村落位於田螺坑景區內，步行就能去附近的土樓，周邊也都是當地居民自己的住宅和民宿還有果園農田，商業化低，更加自然原始，沒有雲水謠景區的嘈雜。民宿的設計很棒，民宿背後一條小河流過也給住宿增加了很多味道。房間衞生乾淨，設施和備品都很齊全。民宿員工友善盡責，廚娘做的飯菜早餐也好吃。
