Diaomin Tribe Boutique Hostel (Kaiping Tangkou)

Really enjoyed our stay. The room was clean and comfortable. The establishment was quirky and museum-like. Tangkou was quiet and characterful (Considered staying in Chikan town. Happy we chose Tangkou instead as Chikan is an overdeveloped theme park). Driving from the hotel to the diaolou clusters was quick and convenient.

Friendly owner and reception staff. In quiet Tangkou town which is surrounded by picturesque and serene countryside of paddy fields, vegetable and fish farms. Very leisurely pace of life and good for long walks and cycling.

We loved this hotel and its authentic atmosphere (as opposed to more modern hotels we saw nearby). The rooms are spacious and feel special with apparent wood structure. The family hosting us was welcoming and friendly. We rented bikes, everything was easy. The location is great to explore the region by bike. There is a small street nearby with restaurants, a night market and old mill buildings rehabilitated into a modern bookstore.

I loved my stay here at this special place, super friendly staff as well, amazing !

This hotel was a breath of fresh air! From the moment I stepped in, I was struck by its unique and farm house style design. It wasn't your typical cookie-cutter hotel, and that's exactly what I loved. The peaceful environment was a welcome escape from the hustle and bustle of the city, allowing for a truly relaxing stay. The staff were friendly and helpful, always ready with a smile and providing to-the-point service – no fuss, just what I needed. A huge plus was the hotel's location. Being within walking distance of so many attractions made exploring a breeze. And when I got hungry, the abundance of great food options nearby was the cherry on top. I would absolutely recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a memorable and enjoyable stay. It's in rural area and rides may not be to easy to get after 10pm. If you plan to return late to the hotel, be sure to know how to contact the hotel just in case the front desk is closed. Sorry to wake you at the middle of night boss lady!

This really was an exceptional place. A cross between a hostel and a museum - quite fascinating and unique. It was exceptionally clean, the staff helpful and the beds comfortable.
