Salam and hi everyone,

If you've been following my journey across China, you already know I don't do fluff. No sponsored stays, no overly polished content — just real talk from a solo Malaysian girl (and sometimes I do travel with friends) navigating everything from bustling Shanghai to the dreamy streets of Lijiang. 

So here's my running list of every hotel I've stayed at in China, reviewed honestly so you can book with confidence.

A Note Before You Book

Every hotel on this list is somewhere I personally stayed and paid for myself unless stated otherwise. I share these because I genuinely think they're worth considering — not because someone told me to.

That said, some links on this page are affiliate links, which means if you book through my link, I may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. It helps keep this blog running and me caffeinated on the road ☕. All opinions remain 100% my own.
