Small boutique hotel ran by a very friendly woman and man. The 古镇 itself is very quiet and the surrounding town doesn't have much going on. Everyone is in bed by 10. Perfect if you're looking for a quiet couple days, but definitely worth mentioning!
There is an amazing trail system all around Ninghai and the hostess can give you many excellent hiking recommendations. She's local to the area and (as far as I understood) the property which is now the hotel belonged to her family at the beginning of the 20th century. There's even a good bit of original furniture around.
The guest rooms are clearly brand new and exceptionally clean. If you are sensitive to odors, you might ask them to remove some of the wormwood (艾草) from your room ahead of time. Two bags of it are hung in every room. I happen to like it but I could imagine some might find it too strong.
The hostess speaks some English and works very hard to accommodate everyone. She even fed us dinner when we arrived too late to eat in the town.
Overall very nice, we'll definitely stay here again if we go to Ninghai.
Hotel yang baru dibuka di sebelah pusat transportasi penumpang dan pintu masuk kereta bawah tanah. Semua fasilitasnya baru dan tidak berbau. Kamarnya juga luas dan terang. Kedap suara dilakukan dengan baik. Suasananya sangat tenang. Kamar mandi dipisahkan menjadi area kering dan basah. Lantai yang tinggi memiliki pencahayaan yang baik. Rasio harga-kinerja sangat tinggi. Ini adalah pilihan pertama untuk perjalanan bisnis dan wisata. Hengyi Plaza ada di lantai bawah. Bagus untuk makan dan berbelanja. Saudara-saudari di meja depan juga sangat sopan dan responsif. Saya akan menginap di sini lagi lain kali

The land lady is really kind & nice, attended to all our needs & requests. They serve decent food at their self-run local restaurant & the location is within a charming village. The room is new, so if it was cleaned properly, I would have given an easy 5 stars. However, only the bed linens & towels are obviously sanitary & the rest are all questionable. But the hot water in the shower is very hot, which is a big plus & The pillows are soft & comfortable. I would recommend not to drink the water from the boiling device as it tastes funny, and keep the bathroom door closed because there’s an awful smell that comes out of it sometimes. The public veranda overlooking the mountains is not maintained at all & is dirty, if not, it would be a great spot to relax. Overall my stay was ok, especially because of the very accommodating land lady/owner.
We spend three nights here to explore the area and loved our stay! The owners were so kind and helpful! Despite our limited mandarin we could still communicate well with some English and translation apps. They helped us with public transport directions (two buses from Ningbo) and provided a varied tasty breakfast (even vegetarian upon our lastminute request). Nice warm shower and beautiful mountain view from the room. There are some great hiking trails nearby (see Zhejiang hiking trails app), some starting directly from this cute historic village. The village across the hill (15min walk) is also very scenic. All in all a great nature getaway from Shanghai with the sweetest hosts!
