A year-round outdoor pool inside a quiet garden homestay
About this hotel
The outdoor pool here runs year-round, which stands out in a city where most gardens and terraces close down for Henan's cold winters. It sits inside a garden and terrace layout with picnic and outdoor furniture arranged around it, the kind of setup that suits a slower, homestay-paced stay over a hotel-style one. Rooms are simply finished, air-conditioning, a private bathroom with free toiletries and a bathrobe, a dining table and an electric kettle, without the wider amenity list a bigger Luoyang hotel would offer. The property sits around eight kilometres from Luoyang Longmen Railway Station and twelve from the Longmen Grottoes, with Luoyang Beijiao Airport a further fourteen kilometres out, putting it a short taxi ride from the main sights rather than in walking distance. It's a residential, garden-first stay rather than a downtown base.
- Year-round outdoor pool
- Garden and terrace
- Private bathroom with toiletries
- Quiet homestay setting
Our take
This suits travelers who want a garden and a pool to return to more than proximity to the old city or a full hotel amenity list, particularly outside the summer months when a year-round pool becomes a genuine point of difference. Groups wanting a pool bar, loungers or resort-style facilities should look elsewhere, since this stays homestay-scale throughout. It's a quieter pick than the five-star hotel near the station, better suited to couples than families.
- ✓Confirm the outdoor pool's current condition directly with the homestay before a winter trip, since year-round access can vary by season.
- ✓Book a taxi in advance for the Longmen Grottoes, roughly twelve kilometres away, since there's no easy walking route from the property.
- ✓Use the dining table and electric kettle for a simple in-room breakfast before an early trip out to the old city wall.
Why we love it
- A rare year-round outdoor pool in Luoyang
- A genuinely quiet garden and terrace setting
- Simple, comfortable rooms without hotel-style clutter
- A homestay pace suited to slower travel
Why guests love itA guest arriving in the shoulder season finds the outdoor pool already open despite the cooler air, a rare thing among Luoyang's mostly summer-only pools. The garden and terrace stay quiet through the afternoon, closer to a private courtyard than a hotel pool deck, and the simple rooms, dining table, electric kettle and a proper bathrobe, keep the stay comfortable without tipping into hotel-standard formality. It's a short taxi from the Longmen Grottoes, close enough for a day trip without needing to relocate.
