Chaohu Fragrant Hotspring Spa Resort

For Chinese locals with families- I'm sure you'll love it. For foreigners Cons 1. If you don't speak mandarin, expect 0 assistance or service. You will have to use your phone to translate everything because they will not bother to try help you. From ignoring you at the check in to not seating you at the restaurant. I speak mandarin so I had to put up with gossiping from staff about us not knowing I understood. 2. Accommodation is just average. Old fittings and lots of Crack. 3. Smokers everywhere, especially where it says not to. 4. The resort women's showers smell of urine. The men's have boys busy trying to sneak peeks at the foreigner, even with clear signs to not use mobile devices. 5. Food is terrible. Too oily and/or salty. Do not experiment. Stick with fried rice or noodles. These were great. 6. No sense of discipline in the resort spaces. Noisy kids in areas that should be quiet. Again with the smokers. Dogs in the hot spring area where they shouldn't be. Staff having a full on conversation complaining about other staff members while giving a "relaxing massage" Pros. 1. Accommodation allows dogs. 2. You can spend most of the day in the resort and just come to your room to sleep. 3. Great for a group of friends who have children. Conclusion- this is one of those places designed to maintain Chinese culture. Would not recommend for non-Chinese if not with your Chinese family and friends

People who work there are really nice, the hotel is spacious, hot springs are fine, but I would NOT recommend anyone to go there. The main problem is food. I was literally starving. There is only one and quite dirty restaurant in the hotel that is not even open throughout the whole day. It’s almost impossible to get any food from the outside (no eleme) only a few places that also work weird hours. The location is really bad, if you want to go hiking, it’s still quite far from the mountains, so you spend lots of time just to get there. So you are basically stuck in the hotel that doesn’t provide decent food.

一個來過還會再來的度假好去處。私湯、公湯都值得體驗，酒店的服務人員態度都很好。公湯的亮點在温泉水的游泳池 完全沒有消毒水的味道，還有餐飲 味道不錯 價格親民。私湯水温適宜 供水沒有時間限制 在房間內喝茶泡湯 吹吹自然風 在愜意不過啦😄
