It looks like the property is undergoing some renovations. Check-in was done by someone at the reception counter who cannot speak English. He came upto our room, but the key card was not working. We had to go back to the reception to get another card for another room. Wifi password was provided only after we asked for it. But the connection was very bad.
No breakfast provided. No restaurants at the hotel. The shower handle at the bathroom was leaking water everywhere.
The reception was empty at the time of check-out. We had to wait for 10 - 15 minutes before someone could attend to us.
Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2024

Location is good. but hotel is not as expected
Not as expected in a touristic area.. staff does not speak English at late night and lights are so dimmed.
I arrived the hotel late evening, although I had a booked confirmation they didn't not have me on files, I had to beg and plead to get a room. The staff doesn't know one word in English, and was not able to help. I went in the morning to the gym (in another building), all the building was power off and I had to search in the dark. When I got back to the room, there was not boy water !
No hot water !!!!!!!!
Restaurant served terrible food
Don't go there, sleep in a car if you have to, it would be much better
Nada mas llegar valoras el silencio y la exhuberante vegetacion que te rodea. Estas a 20 minutos andando del westlake y la ciudad. Viviendo en el ajetreado Shanghai, este lugar es un escape ideal para nosotros. Volveremos.

Une bonne alternative pour etre un peu a l'ecart
En negatif, la clim, pas assez forte et un peu eloignee du centre. En positif, le bon rapport qualite prix.
Very comfy hotel but difficult to get back via taxi along the lake. Many taxis but no one stops to pick up. Maybe the hotel should invest in a shuttle van for "on call" pick up. Buffet breakfast was a little lacking for western type serving.
The location is not near the West Lake as it looked on the map. The staff did not speak any English, which we expected in an "International" hotel and had a difficult time understanding our confirmation and pre-pay situation. It was further from the train station and we had a difficult time getting a cab. The restaurant is not "western and chinese" in my opinion and wasn't even open at 8pm when we arrived. Since there are no decent places to eat near, we went to be hungry. The room was old and very loud. Hotel was not near full but you could hear doors slamming all around and the dogs in the adjacent housing area barked all night. Do not recommend for non-chinese.
There is no hot water in the room. Room is dirty, bathroom is too old and no maintenance. There is no hot water in the room. There is no hot water in the room. There is no hot water in the room. There is no hot water in the room. There is no hot water in the room. There is no hot water in the room.
The breakfast here is quite good with a variety of Chinese and Western choices at the buffet. The service is prompt and friendly. Spacious rooms with varying views in a fairly quiet area. The exercise area is located in a building next to the main building and is reasonably equipped. The setting is very lush, near two tunnels and within comfortable walking distance from the south portion of West Lake, the Hangzhou Zoo, Silk Museum, Jade Emperor Hill, and the Leifeng Pagoda. During the rush hour it was difficult to get a taxi especially when I stayed there on Children’s Day. Also the taxi drivers seemed to need a little extra instruction on the location of the hotel. However, it is a great base to take walking or bicycling tours of a very scenic area. As is often the case the hotel name in Chinese is not the same as the English translation so having the name in Chinese characters, as usual, is helpful for taking a taxi.
Для небольшого города очень приличный отель. Находится от вокзала около 40 км (60 юаней на такси). В 5 минутах езды до озера Сиху и в 10 до храма будды. В целом отель заработал бы 5, если бы не ресторан внизу, очень своебразная и дорогая еда и пиво (26 ианей - 0,33). Оценка 4.
I've stayed in many hotels around China and this was by far the best hotel I've stayed in... Usually we stay in cheaper hotels, but we've also stayed in a few more expensive ones. All in all, Hillview was awesome and made the rest of my family's stay in China a disappointment because the hotels in the other cities were nothing compared to this one.
it was really beautiful staying on this hotel , the only thing is the breakfast was almost prepared for Chinese " Chinese food" , others was really great.
for sure when i come back i will stay in it again .
The hotel its equipped with adequate services, its not the closest to the town but convenient to the public transportation.

Restaurant Service
there was a big problem with the restaurant and services... servers don't speak english, and don't understand us when we asked for the menu; they brang us the BILL!!!
When we asked for a tiramisu, they brang us a BROWNIE and in their opinion, it was absolutely normal...
Then, it was difficult to have a correct diner!!!
We reserved 2 rooms at this hotel. One was in great condition and beautifully appointed. The second one was quite disappointting. The room was much smaller without a separate bathroom as the shower and toilet were in cubicles. Even worse the floor around the shower an toilet was rotted away and this hotel is only a couple of years old! We tried to get another room but we were unable to get it changed. To make matters worse the location was such that most taxis refused to take us to the hotel because of the out of the way location.
We were upgraded to a really beautiful room, it was in the second building and I would highly recommend staying there. The hotel staff did not speak much English and it was hard communicating with them, this was the hotel's greatest downfall.The hotel has a good restaurant which is quite lucky as its at least a 20 min walk to the lake front where other options are available. Bicycles are available for rent; however, the deposit they require is astronomical.
La chambre est très spacieuse. Le personnel parle l'anglais dans l'ensemble et ceux qui ont plus de mal font de très gros efforts. on peut y commander le train pour repartir. L'hotel nous appel un taxi également.

my opinion frankly
First, thank you for following up and hear the opinions and feelings of your customers, this indicates that the paper on your dealings with us.
Second my opinion the hotel is good, quiet, clean, and all the staff and workers in the hotel are working with all they can to the convenience of guests, but I was having some disadvantages such as, far from the city, does not have the swimming pool and it's disturbing was the presence of mosquitoes. This is my opinion frankly.
Thank you again
