« Only Western standard hotel in Xiangyang »

« We stayed in an executive room with club access, I would highly recommend this. It is not a great deal more expensive but from 2pm-11pm daily you can drop in for coffee, cakes, beer and wines (between 5:30 and 8 *happy hour* snacks and spirits) the lounge was always quiet, the staff attentive and the view takes in the square and the city streets. The staff had little English so we were a little confused as to what ‘the deal’ was but everything in the lounge was included in the room rate. (The staff at the front desk spoke very good English, check in etc was not a problem.)The breakfast in the main restaurant was good, some parts great. They had a good range of dishes and coffee. There wasn’t a great deal to do in Xiangyang itself, we weren’t that interested in exploring, as we’ve been living in China awhile we just fancied a western breakfast and a bath tub! I would definitely recommend this hotel if you want comfort and quiet. The only downsides: my husband is a vegetarian and the lounge area didn’t really cater to his diet so we did need to go out to eat as well. The swimming pool is a bit drab, small and seems more like a leisure centre than a nice hotel pool. »

« Central location , evening buffet and the positive attitude of all the staff were the standout features for me »
