Fenghuang Garden Hotel

The Fenghuang Garden Hotel is a nice, clean, quiet hotel located just a few minutes drive from the center of Fenghuang town.  The hotel room was quite spacious and the bathroom looks clean and modern.  I was pleasantly surprised by how nice this hotel is in such a remote area as Fenghuang. 

Outside the hotel, there is an impressive and tall sign (see photo) that is easily visible from the roadway marking the location.  Check-in and check-out process was quick and easy since the front desk is well organized and had several clerks working there.  This hotel has an onsite restaurant which I did not try for dinner but I did have the breakfast buffet there.  The breakfast selection was good and presentation at the buffet tables was also good with many appetizing selections.

I would highly recommend the Fenghuang Garden Hotel because it is clean and modern, good service and quiet location.

Nice Hotel in a Very Quiet Location

The hotel is quite old, we found wood panels coming off the wall and I found the power questionable.  It was the only hotel we stayed in that when my laptop was plugged in (via a surge protector) the internal mouse picked up interference, jumping around the screen - very strange.  The rooms are of a good size. However, overall - it didn’t look clean. 

The towels were yellow with age and the shower wasn't really clean, my girlfriend and her parents refused to use it and waited till the next hotel as we were only there one night.  

The breakfast buffet was limited in terms of western food.  So if you don't like congee rice or noddles or even passable coffee you are out of like, not even a coffee mug on show here.  

You can walk to the Phoenix town it's a 20-30 min walk, we were on a organised tour so we just took the tour bus.  Make sure you visit at night to see the town lit up with all the reflections in the water at night.

In defence of the hotel, it's mostly locals who stay and our guide said that it was the best in the town and locals can't afford to stay there. Guess we are just used to slightly higher standards.

We will give this hotel a miss if we were to visit the beautiful ancient Fenghuang (Phoenix) Town again.

The hotel is quite old, but close to the ancient town.

I was staying in this hotel on 16 Nov 2017. I stepped into the spacious room and was welcome by a very strong cigarettes odour even though it was supposed to be a non smoking room. My tour guide has requested for a change of room but the hotel was fully booked that night. They did a lemon fragrance spray but it did not help as I woke up the next morning with a nose allergy. The shower is facing the toilet bowl which wet the the whole toilet bowl. Towels don’t look clean. The beds were very cold and hard. There was no heater in the room. I have to wear long John plus fleece shirt and socks to sleep. Breakfast was so crowded that we could hardly find a table. As all the tables are round shaped, we have to share table with others. Food sucks and queue was long. It

Not worth staying

We stayed here for one night after visiting Zhangjiajie on the way back to Hong Kong. Our tour guide told us this is the best hotel in town. This is a VERY aged hotel which including every things in the hotel. The room and the bathroom were spacious; however, both were not clean at all. The bed sheet and the towels were all torn. The breakfast buffet was OK, if you like congee or noodles. Taxi to the Phoenix Old Town was 25 Yuen one way.  Make sure to visit this ancient town at night. The night view was spectacular.

Close to Old Town

Stayed one night in this Hotel en-route to Zhangjiajie. 

It is located at the far end of the Tuo Jiang River in Feng Huang Ancient Town itself and so it is within walking distance to the scenic areas. 

This ancient town is fascinating with its wooden houses built on stilts along the banks of the Tuo Jiang River and they have what seems like ‘centuries’ old bridges over the water. There is also a beautiful pagoda seated by the side of the river bank. 

We took the river cruise to enjoy the beautiful sights and sounds - as well as soaked in the atmosphere - watching the daily lives of their locals – washing clothes by the river, catching tiny shrimps to be added to the deep-fried pancakes for sales etc. 

Night view of this ancient Town was equally spectacular. Colourful lighted bulbs outlined the roofs and bridges and its surrounding mountains casting some mysterious shadows all over the vicinity. The best was the reflection of these wonderful sights on the water and it was so picturesque as though it was made specially for the camera. 

The Hotel is old. Its room is reasonably spacious. However, overall - it didn’t look clean. The toilet’s cleanliness was even more questionable as the towels were yellow with age. They were rough and felt kind of ‘oily’. 

But what disappointed us were basic items like a dressing table and a make-up mirror were lacking in the room. They only have a mirror in the toilet. 

I travelled with a friend. When this friend was taking a shower, it was inconvenient to do my make-up in the toilet without intruding into her privacy and vice-versa. And mirrors get ‘blurred’ - being moist with vapour after a warm shower.  It was even more annoying during the morning rush to put up with such inconvenience. 

We will give this Hotel a miss if we were to visit the beautiful ancient Feng Huang Town again.
