Steigenberger Icons Guizhou Xiaoqikong

This is undoubtedly the grandest hotel in the Libo Xiaoqikong Scenic Area. Before checking in, I was a little worried about the decorating smell of the rooms, having only just opened before May Day. After checking in, I learned that it's been open for over a year since its soft opening in 2019, so my concerns were unnecessary. The room is approximately 50 square meters and quite spacious. The separate luggage room and cloakroom are very comfortable. The private balcony offers a breathtaking view of greenery and a plethora of negative ions. 🥰🥰🥰 The hotel provides a shuttle bus to and from the Xiaoqikong East Gate Visitor Center. There's also a dedicated VIP entrance at the back of the hotel, offering direct access to the scenic area. The views of the Grand Seven-Arch Bridge are just as impressive as those of the Xiaoqikong Bridge, and there are literally no people around. 😋😋😋 For breakfast, the local specialty potato pancakes and Western-style waffles are both perfectly prepared and served with a touch of ceremony. Excellent!!! In the evening, we also went to the lounge bar to try local cocktails. We especially liked the sour soup Tequila, which the hotel named Mary. It was super satisfying to drink it in one gulp. 🤗🤗🤗 Throughout our stay, I am really grateful to Anna Meng, the Daguan housekeeper, for her various assistances. She really responded to every request. 😘😘😘 In fact, it is not easy to provide considerate service without losing a sense of boundaries, especially for hotels in super popular scenic spots like Xiaoqikong. It is really not easy during the peak season. My friends around me know that I am also a picky person, so I have to give a big thumbs up. 👍🏻

The hotel just opened in the first half of the year, and the facilities are brand new and comprehensive. The rooms are spacious and have a hot spring bath, so it's recommended to bring a bathing bag in advance. The hotel is about one kilometer from the east gate of the Xiaoqikong Scenic Area, and a shuttle bus is available. If you're entering the area twice, you can walk directly from the hotel's back door to the Daqikong Ancient Bridge and then walk about 300 meters to the bus stop, which is much more convenient than entering from the east gate and then taking the bus. The hotel breakfast is quite generous, and the latte is excellent! For dining, there are many restaurants at the east gate of the scenic area. I recommend the Banji Thumb Beef Noodles! You can also dine in the hotel restaurant. I recommend the beef tendon brisket stew and the pine slab pork, which are guaranteed to be of good quality! The overall service was excellent, and the staff were very welcoming!

The hotel has a dedicated entrance to the scenic area. Walking along the plank road, you'll reach the Daqikong Ancient Bridge Station. You can arrange a sightseeing bus to take you directly to the Xiaoqikong Ancient Bridge Station, eliminating the long lines at the East Gate. On the return trip, board the bus at the Xiaoqikong Ancient Bridge and tell the driver to get off at the Daqikong Ancient Bridge Station. This is the only five-star hotel in Xiaoqikong. The air is fresh and dining at the East Gate is convenient. The shuttle is always available, and every staff member is warm and courteous. The breakfast menu is extensive, and you can order coffee individually, complete with barista latte art, something other hotels don't offer. There's also a fully automatic coffee machine. The bedding in the room was very comfortable, and the quilt was the perfect thickness, eliminating the sweating you get under the covers at other hotels. The room also had a large hot tub, which the children enjoyed. I'll definitely stay at this hotel again if I visit Libo again.

The room was very clean, with a floor-to-ceiling window overlooking a small, airy garden. It was a breathtaking moment for us upon arrival, a moment of natural healing. I'd like to especially praise the front desk lady who checked us in, the lady in traditional Chinese costume who helped with our luggage, and the adorable lady who came out to give us a small gift after learning we were checking out! The ladies were all so beautiful, and their traditional costumes were stunning. I told my friend how excited we were and we hope to see them again next time. It was truly beautiful. My only regret was not being able to see the Seven-Point Caverns. The sky wasn't cooperating. I'll leave that little regret behind and come back next time.

In order to enter the scenic area early the next morning, we stayed in the scenic area the day before, but we were restless all night. The next day, we moved to Shiboge. The hotel's hardware and soft services were great. During the day, we took the elderly to visit Xiaoqikong for a day. In the evening, we dragged our tired bodies to the hotel for dinner, took a hot bath, and had a good sleep. The next day, we visited Daqikong very leisurely. In terms of service, the housekeeper Miss Rou can be described as a beautiful and kind person. When there are things that need to be solved, not only are the problems solved quickly, but the attitude is also very friendly. The girls in the store are very capable. Girls do the luggage and other things. This is different from the north, and the hotels along the way are like this. In short, this is a pleasant stay experience. I will choose Shiboge next time I come. In addition, there are sightseeing buses to pick up and drop off, which is very convenient. The docking point is very close to the scenic area.

The hotel is newly opened. The hotel has a shuttle bus to the entrance of Xiaoqikong Scenic Area. It is very convenient to park and take a bus to the hotel, and you don’t have to find a parking space. The suite is very large, with one bedroom, one living room and two bathrooms. The bedding is very good and the smart toilet is very convenient. The room was cleaned very well. My boyfriend and I had a great time living there! The hotel’s cocktails are also very special, all specially made in Guizhou.
