Tea Cozy Hotel

I booked a room with mountain view. What I got is this room on the second floor with view on the street and trees :( It didn't look like any of the rooms in the pictures shown on Trip.com. Not only was the view bad, it was often loud because of the Instagram café across the street. I also had zero privacy on the balcony as the hundreds of roadside tourists on their scooters frequently take pictures of the house and garden. Keep in mind that mass tourism has arrived in Yulong River area, so it is no longer quiet there. What I also didn't like is that the receptionist smoked under my balcony. It is true that the receptionists speak very good English. But then again, I was not even shown the rooftop terrace that they apparently have, nor was I told about breakfast options. They also have no WeChat contact, which is standard for other hotels. What really shocked is that they tried to charge me 30 RMB for one of their old bikes that I wanted to use in the afternoon for 2 hours. I couldn't believe my ears. As incredibly beautiful as the hotel is, and yes, my room was huge and I am thankful for the tip to visit beautiful Fuli bridge, I feel ripped off for paying so much for a room with no view. It is just not what I booked.

Incredible hotel, we really enjoyed our stay. Super friendly staff that had a good level of English. They gave us cool recommendations and helped us arrange transportation. Beautiful bedrooms with confortable beds. The restaurant food was also delicious. We totally recommend!

This was my third stay at The Tea Cosy. It never disappoints. The room, service, food and location are all excellent. Hanna and Xiao He, who work there, are amazing and cannot do enough to help and look after you. Highly recommend it!
