Baofeng Hot Springs Hotel
A budget hot springs base in Meizhou's thermal belt
About this hotel
Set in Wuhua county within the geothermal belt that runs south of central Meizhou, the Baofeng Hot Springs Hotel keeps its amenity list short and its focus narrow: air conditioning and kid-friendly rooms are the only tagged extras alongside the hot spring access that gives the property its name. At four stars and priced as a budget stay, it holds the stronger review average of Meizhou's two spa pool hotels, built on a small but consistently positive set of reviews. The roughly fifty-four-minute taxi ride from Jieyang Chaoshan Airport puts it well outside the city center, closer to Fengshun's thermal springs than to the China Hakka Museum, which makes this a destination in its own right rather than a stop on a wider Meizhou itinerary.

Our take
This suits travelers treating the hot springs as the actual purpose of the trip, willing to trade city-center convenience and a long amenity list for proximity to Wuhua's thermal water and a strong review score. Families with young kids benefit from the kid-friendly tag, though anyone wanting a full-service resort with dining, fitness facilities, or a longer amenities list should look elsewhere, since this property keeps things deliberately basic around the springs themselves.
- ✓Book ahead during weekends, when local visitors from Meizhou add to the hot spring crowds at properties across Wuhua county.
- ✓Arrange airport transfer with the hotel directly, since the fifty-four-minute taxi ride is easier to plan before arrival than after.
- ✓Pack for warm, humid days between soaks, since air conditioning is the only cooling amenity tagged at this property.
Why we love it
- Genuine hot spring access in Wuhua's thermal belt

Why guests love itTravelers who make the trip out to Wuhua county find the hot springs live up to the hotel's name, with warm geothermal water that beats a standard pool for a genuine soak. The room amenities stay basic, limited to air conditioning and kid-friendly layouts, so families should arrive with realistic expectations about dining options and come prepared to spend most of the stay at the springs rather than around the hotel itself. The taxi ride from the airport takes patience, but the water makes up for it.
