Reviews of Gucheng Boutique Inn (Weishan Laoguan)

I’m visiting from Japan. The location is perfect and the staff were absolute sweethearts. I had a bit of a mishap after checking out, but they handled it so graciously, I’m truly grateful. The room was spotless, and having slippers and bath towels provided was a total lifesaver. I’ll definitely be staying here again when I’m back in Weishan!

This hotel is beautiful and conveniently located for exploring the town. The courtyard was relaxing to sit and rest after walking around all day, and the room itself was spacious and clean. I could not find an electric kettle in the room, but plenty of bottled water was provided daily, as well as tea and small snacks in the courtyard. I would recommend bringing earplugs, as the sounds from other guests talking outside or walking upstairs transmits quite easily. The staff were friendly, and check-in / check-out was super fast. I would stay here again.

Lovely place! I would stay there again.

Very beautiful and comfortable hotel, we loved it. Very good reception, special decoration style, and optimal location.

Very good stay in a charming house !

We left our iPad at the tea tasting table and the lady working that night quickly pick it up and send it to our room. Thumbs up to her 👍 We stayed in the family suite with 2 beds and 1 toilet. Toilet hygiene can be better as we all think the toilet smelled bad compared to the common toilet downstairs. Is there some sewer leaking? We love the tea tasting tables at ground floor made available for guests to make their own tea in the beautiful courtyard. Wonderful experience making and boiling our tea here.

Environment: The retro courtyard is perfect for relaxing with tea and reading; it's just steps from the heart of Weishan Ancient City. Cleanliness: Clean and tidy. Service: The owner is warm and attentive. Facilities: Everything is complete except for the lack of parking (you need to park at the hotel next door). The air conditioning and heating are very effective. Weishan is a great place!

It's a very stylish and charming house with lots of flowers. It's located in the heart of the ancient city, and you can take a bus to Weibaoshan right from the doorstep in the morning.

Recommended by family, it was indeed excellent. The guesthouse is right next to the ancient town, making it very convenient for exploring. The guesthouse is a traditional courtyard house with wooden buildings, exuding a classic charm. The courtyard is lush with flowers and trees, and there are several tea tables for relaxation, making it a truly pleasant place! The rooms were clean and tidy, and the owner was warm and patient.

I immediately fell in love with this inn on Ctrip! 1. It has an old-house feel, not a new house with old-fashioned decor. 2. It's spacious enough; I hate rooms under 25 square meters (many small houses in the ancient city have been renovated, which is understandable). 3. The location is great, but you can get to the door by taxi. It hits all three points. The soundproofing is poor in an old building, which is understandable; it needs to be maintained by the guests. The front desk lady was also very nice.

A very comfortable courtyard, and the rooms are perfect for families. Convenient transportation and a great location. Staying here allows you to enjoy tea in the courtyard, which is even more comfortable than many other teahouses! Perhaps because the guests are all quite well-mannered and mindful, the wooden structure of the house was very quiet, and I slept soundly until dawn.

When choosing a B&B for a family road trip, the most important factors are: 1. Convenient parking close to your home; 2. Ample and pleasant common areas for activities, conversation, and even making new friends; 3. Besides ensuring basic cleanliness and hygiene, the facilities must be adequate and thoughtfully designed; 4. Close proximity to major attractions is essential for those traveling with elderly or children. I personally feel this B&B has fully met these four essential criteria. Additionally, several other key points are particularly noteworthy: 1. The century-old house offers a rich experience of traditional residential style, while also being adapted to modern living habits; 2. Ample vegetation provides a welcome respite from a day's fatigue and keeps mosquitoes away; 3. The B&B offers a rich cultural space with a variety of books on local B&B culture, and most importantly, the tea sets are perfect for travelers who enjoy tea and socializing; 4. The guests are generally well-mannered, creating a comfortable and harmonious atmosphere that enriches the travel experience. In summary, I'll definitely choose this old B&B again next time I visit Weishan!

The 100-year-old house, converted into a B&B, was stunning at first glance. The courtyard was beautiful, and the receptionist was very welcoming. Upon check-in, she explained the precautions for staying in the old house, and it was free to choose whether to stay. The old house was beautiful. Wooden houses certainly don't have strong sound insulation. Fortunately, the guests here are quite well-mannered. We also brought children with us, and they were told not to run or jump and to walk lightly, so that their sleep would not be affected. Sitting in the courtyard, drinking tea and relaxing was so pleasant. Everything slowed down in Weishan. I will come again if I have the chance.

The inn is very beautiful with many flowers and plants. There are several tea rooms where you can drink tea. We stayed in a garden twin room on the first floor. There might be children living upstairs, jumping around and making a lot of noise. The floor is not soundproof. Maybe the rooms upstairs would be better to live in!
