Nestled at the Great Wall's foot, Huotang Hotel in Gubei Water Town offers a serene escape amid mountains. Inspired by "Hakka Tulou" and the Wall, its adobe brick walls and rustic beams resonate with history. The courtyard, sunlit by day and campfire-lit by night, fosters warmth. Lobby, restaurant, bar, and library evoke time's traces, blending old and new. Corridors, soil-built, evoke castle walls, and guestrooms frame mountain vistas, seamlessly blending with nature.
