Sisters, first of all I wish you all a Happy New Year 2021!After experiencing the "torture" of 2020, everyone is full of expectations for 2021, hoping that the shadow of the epidemic will pass soon.At the end of 2020, I also took advantage of every opportunity to take a short trip.I feel very happy and cherished in my heart.Let me tell you about this trip today!
This time I went out because I bought a two-night package at Ninghai Anlan Hotel online for 12,999 yuan.
I didn't notice the driving distance when I bought it. After I bought it, I saw that it takes more than four hours to drive directly from Shanghai.
I just want to find a place to rest first when I want to go.
Then I saw someone online introducing the Mushou Hotel in Xixi, Hangzhou.
I looked at the map and it was a small triangle.
I just wanted to check out both hotels during this trip.
So, at noon that day, I had lunch (fried steamed buns + vermicelli soup) and went out.
Driving all the way to Xixi, Hangzhou, we stopped at a rest stop and ate a piece of stinky tofu. We arrived in Hangzhou around four o'clock in the afternoon.When we came to the hotel, the lobby and outside of the hotel were designed elegantly and beautifully.The entire check-in process was relatively smooth.This hotel in Xixi Mushou has been open for more than a year, and the rooms are still relatively new.The view of the small garden is also more beautiful.<<Swipe left or right to see more>>After placing our luggage, we went out for a walk. Because it was already late at the time and Xixi Wetland Park was about to close, I didn’t go in. I planned to go back the next morning.<<Swipe left or right to see more>>There are also some other hotels in the surrounding area, all surrounding Xixi Wetland Park, focusing on leisure tourism.Have dinner at the hotel restaurant.I think most of the restaurants in Hangzhou are delicious. There are almost no surprises when dining in Hangzhou.The Chinese restaurant in this hotel also tastes quite satisfactory, and everyone enjoyed their meal quite happily.<<Swipe left or right to see more>>After eating, go back to the room to take a bath, take a rest, and get ready to go to Ninghai tomorrow.Here is a summary of Hangzhou Mushou Xixi. Overall, the hotel is pretty good. The hardware has passed the test, but in terms of software, the professionalism of the staff needs to be improved.Of course, the staff are also very polite. It's just that in many aspects, for example, the restaurant waiter has no clue about the dishes, and he is completely confused about the tea and drinks in his restaurant.The next morning I got up and went to the hotel for breakfast.The hotel's breakfast is à la carte, and there are several set meals to choose from.Then we stored our luggage at the front desk and went to Xixi Wetland Park.It is very close from the hotel lobby to one of the entrances of Xixi Wetland Park, and it only takes about five minutes to walk.The weather was very nice that day, and there were few people in the park. We probably walked more than 6,000 steps, looked at the scenery, took a walk, and had a good relaxation for our tired eyes.I told everyone at that time that as we got older, we really liked the feeling of walking outdoors.When I was young, I liked to go shopping in busy places when traveling.It feels completely different now.People with bowed heads usually play computers and look at mobile phones, which is not only taxing on their necks, but also on their eyes.After taking a walk among the beautiful scenery, I felt very comfortable.When we could no longer walk, we saw a small shuttle bus to the scenic area. It cost ten yuan per person. We sat at the gate and returned to the hotel to pick up our luggage.Then I looked at the map. It takes about three and a half hours to get from Mu Shou Xi Xi to Ning Hai An Lan.We originally wanted to have a meal at the nearby Banyan Tree Hotel, but we were afraid it would be too late, so we set off directly.The weather was still very good along the way. I had a bowl of wontons at the rest stop in Cixi. It was so hot that I was sweating all over.Finally, I took a photo while taking off only my vest in the car. It was considered a challenge to this cold wave!It was already past four in the afternoon when we arrived at Ninghai Anlan. When I was checking in, I saw a netizen on the Internet who told me that the shuttle bus service in Ninghai Anlan was particularly poor. I felt it that day.By the way, the Anlan Hotel in Ninghai is indeed beautiful. The hotel room was also nice. It happened that the hotel was holding a Ferrari car club event, and there was a new Ferrari model at the door.We booked a two-bedroom villa with mountain views, which is divided into upper and lower floors.The living room and dining room are large, and there are terraces on each floor.The room is spacious enough.But this hotel also has some problems.In terms of the design of the hotel, it can be described as "a plate of loose sand".Lobby, cafe bar, restaurant, rooms are scattered throughout.You need to use minibuses or golf carts to connect you in between.Let's put it this way, one day we had to change trains three times from our room to the cafe for afternoon tea.Living in a hotel requires changing trains three times. This is the first time I have encountered such a design.I really want to ask, who designed it?What is the rationale for this design?Moreover, the hotel's shuttle bus is very few and extremely slow. Several times I had to wait a long time for a car.Also because of the hotel's "unorganized" design, every time I called to deliver something, it was very slow. On the first day we asked for two harder pillows, but it took two hours for them to be delivered.This is really the biggest bug of this hotel!But other than that, the hotel is pretty good.On the first day we checked in, we went to the hot springs.The hot spring here is completely Japanese style. Since you are not allowed to bring your mobile phone into the hot spring pool, I looked for pictures online:The better thing about the soup pool is that it adopts a reservation system, which means that there should be reasonable control not to have too many people in each period.So when we took a dip, there were only about three people in the women's bath besides us.The hot spring pool is beautifully built and very comfortable to soak in.But we bought tickets for the hot spring pool as part of the package. It is said that if not, there will be an additional charge for entering the hot spring pool.It was probably 188. I don’t remember the specifics.Many guests complained about this matter. Even the rooms are not cheap, and there is an extra charge for entering the hot spring pool.After taking a dip in the soup, I felt very comfortable, soft, and very hungry.Dine at the hotel that day.<<Swipe left or right to see more>>Dinner is also included in the set meal, which is very filling for four people.The whole day went smoothly because the weather was good and the food was good.After we had eaten and drank, we went back to the room and went to sleep beautifully!On the third day, I woke up naturally, had lunch, and then went to the hotel’s horse farm.The racecourse and hot spring bathing are the two major features of this hotel.The horses in the racecourse are all very cute. There are about five or six horses, both big and small.There was also a pony among them, but the pony didn't go out that day.
You can also buy carrots that cost ten yuan a pack and feed them to the horses.We probably bought seven or eight packs of carrots.Feeding the horses is such a stress reliever!Listening to the sound of the horse "praising its difference" and eating carrots makes me really happy.Then you can also choose horse riding activities, which cost about 300 yuan and 20 minutes.You can take photos, but don’t use flashAfter reading the introduction of this racecourse, it turns out that there are more than a dozen branches in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.Even friends from Shanghai can choose the surrounding horse farms to learn horse riding.Horse riding is said to strengthen the waist and abdomen, so I want to try it.After playing happily with the horses and ponies for more than an hour, we came to the soup pool again with excitement and exhaustion.I want to say that this time we went out to play, we were warned by a cold wave from the moment we stepped out.My Chicken Soup relatives posted news about the cold wave in the family group several times to remind us.As a result, I kept posting photos of myself dressed "coolly".He finally couldn't help but ask: Ce Na, isn't it cold?By the way, it was not cold until our third day when we went to the hot spring after riding.The hot soup was very comfortable. I wore a thin sweater and walked up the mountain to my room and it was still not cold.Then we tried the three-way shuttle bus to have that afternoon tea:But it was a little cold when I went out to eat at night.The hotel's dinner was also good. Our order cost about more than 2,000 yuan, and the price/performance ratio was pretty good for this type of hotel.<<Swipe left or right to see more>>When we returned to the room in the evening, we all said with emotion that we were really lucky this time, and we had escaped the cold wave this time!On the fourth day, I woke up naturally at around 10 o'clock in the morning. After a while, I got up and walked to the terrace. The weather was really getting cold.We called the shuttle bus back to the lobby and spent more than 20 minutes going back and forth.I can’t even complain about the bug in the shuttle bus 100 times.After checking out, we showed on the map that we could pass through Ningbo on our way back to Shanghai.I immediately thought of the Ninghai restaurant in Ningbo where we often went to eat. I checked the time and saw that it was about an hour.No one had breakfast that day, so they prepared to devote all their appetites to Ninghai Restaurant.We had delicious Ningbo cuisine at Ninghai Restaurant, which we had not seen for a long time. It was a very happy lunch.After eating, I also bought rice cakes.<<Swipe left or right to see more>>I fell asleep as soon as I got on the bus. I slept for three hours along the way. When I opened my eyes again, I was already in downtown Shanghai.When I got home around 5:30, I packed up and ate the food at home.This is the end of this pleasant journey.At the end of this travel note, I would like to give you some tips for those who want to go to Ninghai Anlan Hotel:1. You can prepare more snacks and snacks. Because when you get to the hotel room, you basically don’t want to go out.2. There are many places where parents and children can play. In addition to the racecourse, there are also some children's playgrounds.3. In summer, there is a canopy theater, which should be a good experience.4. Pay attention to the shuttle bus! Watch out for the shuttle bus! Watch out for the shuttle bus!Finally, I want to say that although the shuttle bus makes me very angry, I still want to wait for the spring to bloom and go to Ninghai Anlan again. I believe it will have a different feeling.Today is January 1, 2021. Thank you all for your company in the past, and I hope that Little Hippo’s articles can accompany you for a long time in the future.Companionship is the best way to express love.I hope we all can have a happy 2021 and good luck!Finally, here is a picture of the koi I took in Xixi Wetland Park. Seeing this koi, all of us will have a happy and smooth 2021!
