🛌 Room experience: Wenqin Pavilion, live in the life of a literati

The "Wenqin Pavilion" where we stayed this time was originally the private room of Ms. Shen Qiushui, the founder of Qiushui Villa. The space is dominated by dark wood and elegant fabrics. The lake can be seen through the window, and the light and shadow fall on the colored windows and lattices, just like a Jiangnan landscape painting.

The most surprising thing is that the "Eighteen Trees" Mingqian Longjing, exquisite tea sets and drinkable spring water are prepared on the table. Quietly brewing tea in such an environment is like traveling back to the Republic of China.

💁♂️ Personal butler service: not only considerate, but also "understanding you in seconds"

Establish contact with the butler after booking, and guide and introduce the history of the building on the day of check-in. During the entire stay, as long as you send a message, you can respond immediately. Whether it is making an appointment for a bath, adding sugar water, calling a taxi, or changing meals, all can be done with just one sentence, just like a personal secretary.

Especially at night, I asked the butler to prepare a rose petal bath for me. When I returned to the room, the hot water and petals were already there, and the fragrance was overflowing. The experience was perfect!

🧁 Touched as soon as I arrived at the room: welcome fruit plate + cake + handwritten card

As soon as I entered the room, I saw the fruit plate and cake arranged, and a blessing card with my name on it. Although it was written by the butler himself, it was full of sincerity, making people feel respected and valued, which is a rare detail in a five-star hotel.

🧃 minibar is free and unlimited, really Buddha!

All drinks and snacks in the refrigerator are free, no charge at all, and they will be replenished after use! This is really worthy of praise👍

🍧 Dessert & Happy Hour: Exquisite and thoughtful meal arrangement
• Afternoon dessert: Delivered to the room at about 5 o'clock, it was snow pear and white fungus that day, sweet but not greasy
• Happy Hour: Enjoy two glasses of wine + ham platter in the evening, leisurely like a vacation in Europe

🥐 Breakfast experience: Free to choose unlimited quantity, and it can be delivered to the room!

On the day of check-in, the butler will let you check the breakfast content in advance, there are Chinese and Western styles, unlimited quantity, small portions, you can mix and match at will or directly "select all".

In the morning, just tell the butler to "prepare breakfast", and the hotel staff will deliver it to the room soon. This day I ate vegetable salad, fried dumplings, steamed buns, oatmeal, corn porridge, fruit platter, omelette... It was so rich that it felt like a brunch buffet, and each one was very exquisite and delicious👏

🛁 Amenities and slippers: All can be taken away, the texture is bursting!

• Dark blue embroidered slippers are super comfortable and can be taken home directly

Qiu Shui Villa is located in the center of the West Lake Scenic Area. It is just outside the Baidi Causeway, Broken Bridge, Xiling Seal Society and other popular attractions.
