Hosts were amazing and helpful! Very good value for price!

“Great and perfect location”

Very nice couple hosting in a simple and authentic chinese environment. They are extremely nice and always happy to help and to make your trip enjoyable. Location is great near Simatai and Jinshanling great walls (which are ++++). They also propose to pick you and drive you back from/to Beijing which is very great. I recommend.

The place was nice and comfortable. You feel like home. Even if it's a guesthouse you are free to come back anytime and they always offer you pick you up for a extra charge of 20yuan. If you feel, you can even walk to the water town. They offer you breakfast and coffee out of the price if you need it They always try to help you.

“Heart warming, authentic experience.”

My favourite place I stayed! They truly made you feel at home. They picked me up dropped me off cooked me amazing meals, breakfast lunch dinner. Honestly they made my trip so much easier. 1000000% recommend.

“Well organised family run guesthouse with delicious breakfast”

This is a Family run guesthouse close to the Gubei resort. It’s close enough to be a real alternative if you can’t find something inside the resort or if you value the experience itself. The family who runs it, is super organised. The son speaks very good English and will communicate with you regarding pick ups / drop offs / tours. The parents do the operational side, they don’t speak English but go out of their way to accommodate you - organise local transport to and from the water town, the other part of the wall, breakfast / lunch / dinner whatever you need (delicious breakfast by the way). We asked for a pick up from Beijing and a drop off at PEK - Worked great. The village itself, where the guesthouse is located, looks interesting but as it was winter, early dark and super cold, there wasn’t much happening when we were there.

“Hidden gem!”

A hidden gem! Perfect spot to stay for a trip to watertown and the Simatai great wall. The lovely couple were very welcoming and a joy to be around. They used translation apps to make conversation and help us with our questions. The man very kindly dropped and collected us to and from watertown whenever we wanted for a very small fee (40RBN I think). We had delicious home cooked meals for dinner and breakfast. Their son Rock was so helpful via WeChat and even helped us with a query after we left! We highly recommend a stay here! Thank you for a fabulous stay.

Near to Gubei Water Town. Great for a overnight trip after night session at Gubei Water Town. The hosts were very friendly and were worried we couldn't get a ride.

“Get the whole experience of a homestay.”

For a genuine homestay experience, this is the place you can truly rely on. The hosts were warm, generous, and took excellent care of their guests. We truly enjoyed both the stay and the delicious food.

“Simply fantastic”

An extremely welcoming family who invite you into their home. The food offered is delicious. Nothing was too much trouble and we were helped enormously with all our arrangements. We would massively recommend and return in a heart beat. The value for money is excellent.

Rock and his parents make you feel like home. Although there is a language barriere, we could communicate perfectly by translation apps. They were extremely polite and we especially enjoyed the delicious home made Chinese food!

“Great”

The hosts a Chinese couple they were amazing ready to help make food do Laundry and get you to the wall

“Very cost effective, great location, exceptional hosts.”

The hosts at Jumanyuan House were exceptionally kind, helpful, and accommodating. They provided a clean and comfortable room, delicious meals, and transportation whenever we needed. Every need was met, and every preference considered. We had clean towels, a private bathroom, a fully adjustable schedule, and luxuries like coffee, tea, and snacks.

“A nice homestay with friendly owners and good food”

A proper homestay! The owners are really friendly and helpful. We arrived at lunch time, and they cooked us a delicious homemade meal for a fair price. The place is conveniently located near Gubei Water Town and the Simatai and Jinshalin entries of the great wall. The owners can drive you there for an acceptable fee.

My favourite place I stayed! They truly made you feel at home. They picked me up dropped me off cooked me amazing meals, breakfast lunch dinner. Honestly they made my trip so much easier. 1000000% recommend.

Junanyuan House was the perfect match for us. The host offered us transfer from airport, amazing dinner, breakfast and transfer to and from Jinshanling. Without him it’d have been very difficult to have done what we did. We watched the sunrise from the wall and it was unforgettable. Thank you very much!!

“Go there for the experience, not for the facilities.”

The owners are very kind, helped us planning the best hike experience on the Great Wall, drove us everywhere including back to Beijing. Amazing home cooked food

“Wonderful stay”

This family wonderful and care taking. They picked me up at the airport and took care of me during my whole stay. Wish i had stay longer and would love yo come back!

This was an exceptional find especially at the price point. Mr and Mrs Zhang took care of us like family. For a little extra, they prepared meals including one of the best braised pork I've ever tasted. They also could arrange for convenient transfers in and out of the capital to our selected locations at a reasonable fee. My only regret was only booking one night

Friendly seniors couple running the homestay. They provide transportation services at a reasonable price. The location of the homestay is not as shown in Google maps. Its about 3km from the main entrance of the watet town.

“Amazing experience!”

The owners are amazing, they arrange everything and are very kind. Thank you very much for having us!
