Hot Spring Hotels in Xiaojin

What a pleasant surprise for our first stop on our western Sichuan road trip! The room was incredibly clean and tidy, and the owner is very detail-oriented. There's even an oxygen supply in the room, and the service was amazing and super attentive! The hotel also has fantastic views, which was very therapeutic! The yak hotpot was the best we had on this entire western Sichuan trip! Highly recommend!!!

The room was very clean and spacious, with lovely mountain views. The courtyard was beautifully decorated with many flowers and succulents, giving it a charming ethnic vibe. The manager, a lovely lady, was incredibly welcoming and even drove us to the commercial street for dinner. When we checked out, she gifted us plums and sea buckthorn juice! Breakfast was also exquisitely prepared.

The snow-capped mountains at 9 AM were absolutely stunning! No need to get up early to chase the sunrise; it truly lives up to its nickname, ”Little Switzerland of Western Sichuan.” After searching for ages, I finally found a courtyard hot spring bath with a view. And it's a private courtyard bath for each guesthouse, so you won't be disturbed. The guesthouse has its own restaurant where you can enjoy local cuisine. As a Cantonese person coming from a city in the twenties (Celsius) to the sub-zero Western Sichuan plateau for the first time, I absolutely had to have some braised yak meat and matsutake chicken soup to warm me up. Soaking in my private courtyard hot spring bath in -8°C weather, gazing at the unbeatable snow-capped mountain scenery—this is what it means to have your eyes in paradise! Even at an altitude of over 3,000 meters, there's no need to worry. The guesthouse has oxygen cylinders and oxygen bags. Although it was my first time at such a high altitude, I felt mild altitude sickness, which was manageable. Especially when I felt unwell, taking a walk in the courtyard and breathing in the negative ions of nature made me feel much better! What's best about the guesthouse is the scenery; it's truly my ideal utopia. Every view from the room is a perfect shot. You don't need to spend money to go to tourist attractions to see snow-capped mountains, meadows, yaks, horses, and donkeys. Coming here to relax is incredibly therapeutic.

Choosing the right guesthouse for your trip to Siguniang Mountain is crucial! This stay at Mushan Yingxue far exceeded my expectations, highly recommended! The location is very close to Shuangqiaogou Scenic Area, just a few minutes' drive to the entrance. Parking is convenient for self-drivers, and there are even EV charging spots, making travel hassle-free. The room was clean and tidy, with a simple yet elegant design, spacious, and equipped with a dry/wet separated bathroom and a smart toilet – all very new facilities. The biggest surprise was the private hot spring tub in the room ♨️. After hiking in Shuangqiaogou, a private soak completely relieved all my fatigue. Soaking in the evening with the mountain breeze created a wonderful atmosphere. The butler service was attentive and thoughtful, and check-in was smooth. The breakfast selection was rich and delicious, and there's a scenic terrace in the common area with a quiet and peaceful environment. They also have a washer-dryer, so you can clean and dry clothes after hiking, which is incredibly friendly for travelers. Even at high altitude, the quality of rest here is excellent. Whether you're self-driving or visiting Shuangqiaogou, this is a top choice. I'll definitely stay here again next time I visit Siguniang Mountain!
