彭彭睦真My stay in the Classic Suite during Chinese New Year 2026 was a delightful surprise. Six months later, returning to Qishan and staying in a Harbour Suite, I felt both the familiarity of reuniting with an old friend and the fresh amazement brought by the hotel's thoughtful adjustments.
For nearly a year now, I've maintained a frequency of staying at one of the four Qishan Group hotels once or twice a month. Qishan has become my home away from home, my second sanctuary. The healing I've experienced here post-surgery and the tangible improvement in my physical well-being over this past year, I believe, serve as a powerful testament to Qishan's efficacy as a wellness hotel.
What Qishan has shown me over the past six months isn't grand, unnecessary embellishments, but rather continuous adjustments and optimizations of the smallest details. Six months isn't a long time, yet it's enough for a progressive hotel to evolve, though it's not uncommon to see many hotels remain stagnant. The moment I opened the room door, I could sense the efforts Qishan had made in many unseen areas over this period.
Firstly, let's talk about the hardware. Qishan's integration of hospitality with ESG/sustainability continues. I noticed that compared to six months ago, all guest amenities in the bathroom have been replaced with sustainable, eco-friendly materials, including but not limited to recyclable paper packaging. Regarding environmental protection, many instinctively raise questions about 'cost reduction and efficiency improvement,' but Qishan has actually upgraded the quality of in-room amenities – from regular Colgate toothpaste to Lebon toothpaste in paper packaging. The new paper eco-packaging feels more premium and substantial when used and torn open than the old packaging. For crucial water-soluble and moisture-sensitive products like bath salts, Qishan hasn't cut corners by reducing their seal; instead, they've consistently chosen outer paper and inner plastic packaging to provide an extra layer of protection and a better feel. Modern businesses emphasize sustainable development, and I personally find the feeling of being environmentally friendly to be a form of healing. After all, isn't extravagant wastefulness, especially the neglect of limited resources, a psychological burden when we reflect on it?
Qishan is not only environmentally responsible but also commendable for its attention to detail! If I remember correctly, six months ago, the hairdryer cord in Qishan's rooms was wrapped around the Dyson stand. This visit, I noticed the hairdryer cord was neatly stored and organized, with a cable tie enhancing its visual appeal. This attention to detail at Qishan extends to caring for people, which is where my emotional connection to the hotel lies. For this stay, from the moment the thought 'I want to stay at Qishan again' crossed my mind until check-out, the Qishan team members were seamlessly coordinated. Our butler partners, Chloe and Echo, meticulously pre-planned my in-house experience, booked activities I might be interested in, and carefully listened to my needs. Their synergy with Molly, who handled my check-in, was exceptional, saving me unnecessary effort and hassle for a 'smooth check-in.' What moved me even more was when Guest Relations Manager Ms. Linda learned I felt unwell after a wine gathering yesterday and promptly brought me hot honey water. Even without me explicitly asking, the team clearly remembered my personalized preferences and habits. Linda and Echo thoughtfully prepared horse-year bookmarks for me. This genuine and sensitive interpersonal communication, and the comfortable interaction with the staff, I believe, are powerful strengths of Qishan as a wellness hotel.
This meticulous humanistic care naturally extends to all dining and travel scenarios, including my time when I'm not staying at the hotel. The dining experience at Xia Restaurant remains an excellent palate-pleasing therapy. Eating seasonally and locally, Xia Restaurant's dishes align with the hotel's consistent ESG principles and creatively break the stereotype that Fujian cuisine is only steamed or blanched. The ingredients are incredibly familiar, but the innovative fusion of flavors is fresh. Chef Yang's skill is undeniably profound. I'd also like to thank tea master Xiao Lin for her attentive and thoughtful service during my meal.
Driver Master Zhang. Master Zhang, who drives the Rolls-Royce, is exceptionally steady and thorough. This was my third time riding with him, and the journey was smooth and safe. Moreover, Master Zhang is very conversant; he can discuss anything from a small hotel transfer experience and itinerary to reflections on life with great eloquence. He drives attentively when it's quiet and engages in conversation naturally. He's a friend I have at Qishan.
Even when not staying, I often relax and work at the Long Bar. Although not directly related to this stay, I still want to especially thank my friends at the Long Bar. A 27-yuan kombucha a day didn't lessen their care and attention towards me. Thank you for embracing me as part of the hotel's daily operations. They are Mandy, Ada, Sunny Chen Yuanyuan, Kiki...
Finally, I also want to thank General Manager Yang and General Manager Zhu, who check in on me from time to time. Like the other hotel colleagues, they are an indispensable part of my 'life' at Qishan.
In six months, Qishan has once again given me an unspoken answer through these subtle adjustments and the warmth of human connection. So, nothing special, just as satisfied as always, and I hope everyone enjoys Qishan as much as I do.
