[Like] As a resort hotel, Yangcheng Lake Banyan Tree is undoubtedly an excellent choice near Shanghai. Its pristine environment perfectly captures urban dwellers' yearning for nature.
🌟 Highlights:
Dancing butterflies, paired wild ducks, and freely soaring egrets grace the exquisitely designed hotel gardens. Surrounded by an inner lake and adjacent to the vast waters of Yangcheng Middle Lake, the property showcases the natural beauty of Jiangnan wetlands.
👍 Highly Recommended:
We were hosted by Mr. Yang Yong, Banyan Tree Ambassador, whose professional hospitality expertise embodies the service ethos often missing in luxury brands today. "Home away from home" isn't just a slogan here – it's a service philosophy honed through experience and dedication. Kudos to him!
🛏 Room Amenities:
The hotel's hardware is impeccable, with spacious rooms featuring high-quality materials and premium bedding.
🏨 Hotel Environment:
Immerse yourself in nature's whisper during rainfall – gentle insect chirps, birdsongs, and crisp air create perfect serenity. Sleeping with doors open (screens closed) to the sound of rain is pure bliss.
📝 Tips:
For those seeking peaceful solitude, this is ideal. While not outstanding in any single aspect (hotel scale, service quality, facilities, design aesthetics, or natural scenery – pristine but somewhat plain), it achieves remarkable balance.
Like our previous experience at Anji Banyan Tree: no surprises, just comfort. Compared to Lion Mountain Banyan Tree, this location better suits relaxation.
PS: Regarding online comments about mosquitoes – they're indeed prevalent in outer areas but much better indoors. The thriving ecosystem here is a double-edged sword. Guests concerned can request preventive measures beforehand.
