Qingcheng Mountain Suxi Qingshan Forest Homestay

Where to start! If you are looking for a few nights away from the bustle of Chinese cities and you want to relax and unwind in nature then Suxi Qingshan Forest Homestay is perfect! The hotel is easily accessible from Chengdu. A short 25 minutes train ride from Chengdu to Qingchengshan station and then the hotel staff will arrange to pick you up. As soon as you arrive you will realise what an absolute gem this hotel is! The hotel is nestled amongst the hills with incredible views of the surrounding mountains. This is a luxury hotel with the services and infrastructure to match. We enjoyed a wonderful afternoon tea upon arrival and you also have the possibility to enjoy a hot water jacuzzi, a fitness area, walks around the hotel forest grounds as well as many other experiences proposed by the hotel. The hotel is only 15 mins drive from Dujiangyan Giant Panda Centre and the hotel staff organised transport there and back for us. We would recommend this Panda reserve as it is much quieter than the reserves in Chengdu! We had dinner at the hotel restaurant on both nights of our stay and the food was truly exceptional! We chose the set menu, which took us on a culinary journey through Sichuan. Each plate was refined, delicious and made using fresh ingredients. The breakfast was equally delicious, fresh and healthy. We would like to highlight the kindness and warmth of all the hotel staff. They were always available to answer any questions and organise activities to make our stay magical. The hotel staff were able to communicate with us in both English and French. We stayed at Suxi Homestay looking for a relaxing few days away from cities and we were blown away by the experience! We would have loved to have extended our stay!

在成都臨時起意多留兩日度週末，尋找住所時，發現青城山“素喜”。有種情緒是“樸素的歡喜”，未見就讓人心生好感。 民宿位於青城山的後山鳳棲山，街子古鎮就在山腳下。上山公路九曲十八彎，行過一條雅緻竹林小道後豁然開朗，“素喜”現代時尚的玻璃建築與四周的自然景緻和諧共存，相得益彰。 抵達民宿後，發現它的確如名字一般，處處都藏着不期而至的小確幸。到訪之時正值立冬後的第一天，秋意尚未散盡，銀杏葉已轉黃，與更顯翠綠的山林相互映襯，五彩斑斕。 素喜的房間名字都充滿了詩意。入住的房間名為“扶搖”，有扶搖直上雲天的豪邁意境。房間的落地大窗正對山景，將一幅流動的山水畫卷收納入屋。晨起時，濃霧鎖住山丘，站在陽台眺望，綿延的遠山在霧氣中若隱若現，恰似仙境；午後坐在案桌前，沏上一壺香茗，聽窗外雨打芭蕉葉；晚間，螢火蟲在林中忽閃歡悦，秋蟲在草叢淺吟低唱，撫琴一曲《良宵引》與天地進行一場無言對話。 從初到時的小挑剔到離開後的回憶，感動於民宿主理人孟起和小鉉夫婦，如同現代的田園詩人，腳踏實地在這片山林間構築着他們心中的桃花源。願他們夢想成真。 期待再見青山素喜。

素喜是我住過的民宿印象非常深刻的一家，每一處景、每一個擺設、每一個細節都體現了老闆的審美和品味。確實用心了的。後面一打聽，果然老闆自己就是設計師。整體打造就是高端、別緻、私密，還跟大自然完全地融合在了一起。處處彰顯了老闆的情懷。而且服務特別好，中秋節工作人員還帶我們用天文望遠鏡看月亮、送我們月餅。房間也有水果、茶點…房間用品也非常高級。總之，情侶出遊來這裏相當的浪漫，推薦！
