Jiyuan Boutique Homestay (Yangzhou Dongguan Street)  

In Yangzhou's atmospheric old city, a century-old inn that fuses historic grit with calm comfort. Set among classical garden lanes and stone streets, it puts you steps from the area's cultural sights and 2,500 years of local history.

Restored by traditional garden masters, the place pairs antique courtyards and cultural décor with clean, modern touches. Rooms are pared-back and cozy, with in-room TV and slippers, plus quiet communal corners like a library for slow afternoons.

On-site restaurant and a parking zone for guests arriving by car. Practical services include laundry, ironing and a concierge. The hotel syndicates local experiences—think breakfast buns from a century-old tea house, traditional bathhouse pedicures, and old-school barber cuts for a true local touch.

A restaurant on-site welcomes guests for regional, folk-inspired dishes and simple breakfasts. Expect local flavors and classic snacks—perfect for sampling Yangzhou's culinary traditions without straying far.
