The book says that the Ming and Qing Dynasty Inn is located in Xiahongxue Lane next to the Huguang Guild Hall, which was rebuilt from a second-class historical building. The renovation process adopts Chinese antique design, which is full of classical charm. The book says that the Ming and Qing Dynasty Inn is a rare boutique inn in the main urban area of Chongqing, and its convenient geographical location and antique characteristic decoration have attracted many tourists who travel to Chongqing.
The book says that the predecessor of the inn in the Ming and Qing dynasties was a courtyard house built in the Ming and Qing dynasties, and is now a brick and wood structure, with a Japanese layout, divided into courtyards and the main body of the building. The high yellow wall encloses the inn, and the plaque of "Purple Spirit" hangs at the main entrance, and behind the door is the front hall, where a row of stone piles of the twelve zodiac horses are erected, followed by a stone carved water tank, where water lilies and carp are raised; In the middle of the back hall is a pond surrounded by greenery and dead stones. The main body of the building has a cloister, diagonal braces, railings, humps, etc., the components are beautifully carved, and the interior is decorated with poems, calligraphy and paintings, porcelain and paper inkstones. The whole environment is in black and white ink tones, quiet and tranquil, full of antiquity. The book said that the predecessor of the Ming and Qing Dynasty Inn was a historical building, and in the renovation it followed the original architectural design, and the classical design was quite "authentic", more real, and the guests had a slight sense of "crossing" from time to time.
The inn is small in size, with only 6 rooms, named Poetry, Books, Rites, Rites, Music, Spring and Autumn, with an area of between 18 square meters and 60 square meters, the first five are single rooms, and Spring and Autumn are suites with tea rooms and bathtubs. Each room is decorated in a classic style, with Chinese furniture and linen upholstery, which is simple and elegant. The bedding and toiletries in the room were clean and simple, and basically matched the price. Although the book says that the Ming and Qing Dynasty inns are renovated from old buildings, the indoor environment is new and tidy, which not only retains the simple charm of old buildings, but also has the cleanliness and comfort of modern residences.
The book says that the ancient temperament of the inn in the Ming and Qing dynasties is not only reflected in the environment, but also in its characteristic services. In the Ming and Qing Dynasty inns, guests can appreciate and experience traditional Chinese arts such as tea ceremony, calligraphy, and rubbing. The tea ceremony is the most popular item, including tea selection, water selection, tea cooking techniques, tea set arts, etc., and guests can rest and enjoy tea after their trip. Rubbing, which refers to printing words or pictures on stone tablets or utensils on paper, is not common in daily life and often arouses the curiosity of residents. The rubbing provided by the inn is relatively simple, and most of them are for guests to try first.
The book says that the Ming and Qing Dynasty Inn is located in the Jiefangbei business district, close to popular attractions such as Huguang Guild Hall, Hongya Cave and Yangtze River Cableway, and is surrounded by restaurants and shops, which is more convenient. The disadvantage is that the location of the Ming and Qing inns is not conspicuous and not easy to find. In addition, guests need to walk more than 300 meters to reach the inn, which is somewhat inconvenient. In terms of catering, the breakfast provided by the Ming and Qing Dynasty Inn is only bread, milk and fried egg noodles, which is too simple. The inn usually recommends that guests dine in the nearby Fanjianghu, which is a brand of the Ming and Qing Inns, and mainly promotes Jianghu cuisine, which has a decent taste. Ctrip, Tuniu and other platforms accept reservations for the Ming and Qing Dynasty Inns, and depending on the room type, the room rate for a single night is between 400 yuan and 1,500 yuan.
