Lugu Lake Arabella Lake View Manor

Both the environment and service at this hotel were the best of our entire trip. The hotel's terrace offers panoramic sea views. We booked an RV room, which kept the children thrilled for ages as they constantly played and bounced around in the garden right outside our room. Inside, the large bed allowed us to stargaze, and simply opening the room door revealed stunning sea views – this environment absolutely delighted the kids! The hotel's breakfast was also superb, a set menu that even convinced my dad, who usually skips hotel breakfasts, to join us. Staying at this hotel meant we hardly needed to plan anything; they provided excellent recommendations for Lugu Lake's sightseeing routes, boat ticket purchases, and local specialty foods. This is definitely a hotel we would stay at again! The only downside was the extremely steep road leading up to the hotel. It's so narrow that if another car comes down, there's no way to pass. I suggest the hotel seriously look into improving this. Our favorite feature was the hotel's shuttle service within a 5km radius. Initially, both my dad and the kids were skeptical, but by the end, they were all giving it a big thumbs-up!

The room was absolutely fantastic. I could have easily spent the entire day in bed just enjoying the lake view, without even needing to step outside. The staff, especially Er Che, provided excellent service, even helping with our luggage. Parking was also very convenient. I also found the dining options nearby to be the most plentiful around Lugu Lake.
