Traveler reviews
Huong Pham
★★★★★a year agoA really nice visit during my stay in Hangzhou. The house is renovated nicely, the architecture and setup are really giving an acient time ambiance, providing the experience of travelling back in time. The highlight of the house is truly the pond, really beautiful and peaceful. Other rooms are also impressive with sophisticated interior design and furniture, even though they're a bit repetitve but always consistent, making an awe towards the attention to details for the construction of the house. Highly recommended if you're looking for a half-day activity in Hangzhou.
Wandering in Paradise
★★★★★2 years agoBeautiful 19th century home with amazing architecture! A lot of incredible scenery with history of Hu Xueyan. Really love the water areas and all the attention to detail in the design. The kitchen is very cool. Definitely recommend visiting, 20 RNB per person.
