Xishuangbanna Gaozhuang tested! Oasis resort hotel a 5-minute walk to the night market

I couldn't wait to share this hotel that is "full of tropical relaxation" as soon as I returned from Banna — Xishuangbanna Jinghong Hepu Liyue Resort Hotel (Gaozhuang Starlight Night Market Branch)! As a player who has visited Gaozhuang many times, I was really attracted by its "precise experience" this time. From the location to the service, it can be called a "vacation textbook" ✨ 🌟 The location is amazing! Who understands the joy of being able to walk to the night market? The best thing about staying in Gaozhuang is the convenience of "walking to the Starlight Night Market"! According to actual measurements, it is 347 meters (about 4 and a half minutes) from the side door of the hotel to Exit 3 of the night market. Every evening, you can stroll into the night market and catch the opening of the Dai Di dance and the moment when the lights are shining~ In the early morning, you can also stagger the peak period and walk 8 minutes to the Great Golden Pagoda Temple, and take a group of "Dai costumes in the morning mist" blockbusters in front of the unmanned pagoda. The beam of sunlight penetrating the eaves is simply a filter 📸 In terms of transportation, it is also very friendly to lazy people: free airport pick-up service (reservation required 12 hours in advance), 20 minutes by taxi from the airport; free parking for self-driving, but it is more recommended to take the sightseeing bus cooperated by the hotel, 5 minutes to shuttle through the core area of Gaozhuang, completely bid farewell to parking troubles 🚗 🌵 Design crit! Soak in the hot springs in the Moroccan oasis and watch open-air movies As soon as you enter the hotel, you will be captured by the "desert oasis" themed courtyard! The 2-meter-high Euphorbia cactus, white beach chairs, cobalt blue swimming pool and earth-yellow rammed earth wall form a "North African-like" scene. Just press the shutter under the palm trees by the swimming pool, and they are all highly praised blockbusters in Moments. Highly recommend **"Half Sugar · Hot Spring Courtyard Room"**! The 38㎡ space has an independent open-air hot spring pool. The butler will put 38℃ warm water and sprinkle rose petals half an hour in advance. When soaking in the hot spring at night, you can see the stars and the faint light of the Great Golden Pagoda in the distance. The atmosphere is directly full 🌌 The details of the public area are amazing: the garden restaurant on the first floor provides free Pu'er tea tasting every day (raw Pu/ripe Pu is optional), the rooftop on the third floor has a "sunset observation point" where you can watch the Lancang River sunset, and the swimming pool area opens an open-air movie mode at 19:30 every night! Lying on a floating mat and watching "Little Forest", with the sound of wind blowing through the palm leaves in your ears, this is the slow pace that a vacation should have~ 💁‍♀️ Service details: "Dai-style care" that understands you better than your family When checking in, the butler handed over iced lemongrass water and disinfecting wipes, and also gave a hand-painted "Gaozhuang Hidden Play Map", which marked the local people's private barbecue stalls, rainforest hiking starting points, and even the reflector position for taking pictures 📒 The actual 24-hour front desk response speed is amazing: one night, due to slight noise in the street-facing room, I called and the hotel helped to change to a room on the inner side of the courtyard within 10 minutes; the next day, I also received lemon honey water made by the butler himself. This kind of "proactive prediction of needs" service is really heartwarming~ Breakfast is served in the garden restaurant. You must try the freshly cooked Yunnan local chicken rice noodles, with tamarind juice and freshly cut tropical fruits (pineapple/mango/papaya unlimited). Families with children can borrow children's bathrobes and swimming rings for free. The shallow water area of the swimming pool (0.5m deep) is equipped with cartoon floating boards. Parents can use the free power bank by the pool to watch their children with peace of mind. Detail control indicates that they love it so much 👨👩👧 🍽️ Surrounding Raiders: "Eat well and drink well guide" led by locals ✔️ Laos Ice Coffee Stall (180m walk): In the alley on the left side of the night market entrance, 2 yuan/bag of bagged coffee with condensed milk, ice-cold and thirst-quenching, must be stocked every day! ✔️ Manfeilong Grilled Chicken (Headquarters) (5 minutes by taxi): A 20-year-old store, the grilled chicken is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and it is amazing with lemon Nami sauce. The per capita is 60 yuan to eat until you are full 🍗 ❌ Avoid pit reminders: Reject the "199 yuan travel photography" touting on the roadside of the night market! Choose a certified photographer who cooperates with the hotel (you can view Trip.com customer photos). The 299 yuan package includes 3 sets of clothing + makeup + 5 refined photos, without hidden consumption and more photogenic; it is recommended to go to the Manhena wholesale market 3 km away to buy fruits. The price of mangosteen is 40% lower than that of the night market. Remember to scan the code to check the official average price~ 💰 Price reference: Cost-effective for both students and petty bourgeois The basic room type is usually 518 yuan/night (including double breakfast + airport pick-up). It is recommended to add 120 yuan to upgrade to the hot spring pool room, and the experience will be doubled! Trip.com has a "3-night stay + travel photography package" for 1099 yuan, including daily afternoon tea (Laos ice coffee + mango sticky rice) and 1 hour of swimming pool follow-up shooting, which is equivalent to 366 yuan per night. Students can easily rush with a team or couples~ Peak season (November-February) It is recommended to book 2 weeks in advance, and the price may increase by 100-200 yuan on weekdays and weekends. It is more cost-effective to check in from Monday to Thursday~ ✨ Summary: Who must lock in this hotel? ✔️ Efficiency-oriented players who pursue "5 minutes walk to the night market" ✔️ "Appearance Party" and "Outfit Blogger" who love to take atmospheric blockbusters ✔️ Families who need "worry-free service" when traveling with children ✔️ "Exquisite travelers" who pay attention to detail experience During this 3-day and 2-night stay in Banna, I explored Gaozhuang with the hotel as the center every day. When I was tired, I went back to the "Oasis" to soak in the hot springs and watch movies. This kind of "immersive vacation" experience really healed the anxiety of urban people~ Next time I come, I also want to try the hotel's "Ancient Tea Mountain Tea Picking + Tea Making Experience", looking forward to unlocking more surprises in this tropical secret place~
