Chongqing Jiefangbei Hongya Cave Houju High-altitude River-view Hotel

Views: Guests frequently praise the hotel for its breathtaking views of the city, river, and mountains from high-floor rooms. The nighttime skyline is particularly highlighted as stunning, providing a memorable visual experience.

Great hotel in the centre of chongqing its right next to the people's monument and the night market. Views were great.

If you thought that the main thing about this hotel was only its stylish rooms or gorgeous views from the windows (which, by the way, are also true), I would like to say that another of its strengths is its friendly and very responsive, helpful staff. On the day we checked in, we were brought welcome tea and snacks. It was very nice! The tea was so delicious that we later decided to ask where we could buy it. Although the packages available for sale were a little too big for us (actually, they are normal in weight, but we couldn't take much with us), the girl at the reception, knowing that we liked the tea, made it for us the next day... It was very thoughtful and kind. Thank you! Later in the evening, we had a problem in our room. It was too cold for us, so we tried to turn on the air conditioning to heat the room, but it didn't work. The girl at the reception desk tried hard to solve the problem, and eventually the heating mode was fixed. On the second day, the air conditioning problem recurred. Another girl tried to help us, and this time it worked quickly and permanently. Everything was fine after that. Our check-out was late at night, but the girl at the reception quickly called a taxi and accompanied us to it, helping us load our suitcases into the boot. We had read other reviews before and expected the service to be just... okay. But! In fact, all the staff were friendly, very welcoming and pleasant. The hotel room itself is stylish and has many different lamps and atmospheric lighting for beautiful photos. The view from the panoramic window is excellent, nothing more to add. The curtains are automatic and light-proof. We enjoyed the comfortable bed and very soft bedding. Therefore, it was sometimes even difficult to wake up early. The walls of the toilet and part of the bathroom are almost transparent, which was a little embarrassing. The cleaning service was good, and the water bottles were replenished. We usually left the room a little late, but Auntie was always friendly and waited for us. I think the hotel's location near Jiefangbei is very good, especially if you are in Chongqing for the first time. Everything is nearby: food, shopping malls, three metro stations within walking distance. The lobby with the reception is on the 46th floor, and it has a beautiful design with panoramic windows. There are cosy sofas and free drinks: coffee, tea, lemonade. There were no particular problems with the lifts in the building because they are separated by floor. (Perhaps the building itself was not busy during our trip, or perhaps we are already used to lifts in tall buildings). The only downside I can mention is the smell of tobacco, which sometimes drifted into our room (I guess, through the ventilation system?). Keep this in mind if you don't really stand the smell of tobacco, just like us. But all the other positives significantly outweighed this, so overall we were left with only positive impressions about our stay at the hotel.
