Zero Five One Seven Boutique Hotel (0517 Hotel)

The hotel proprietor was proficient in English and took the time to advise us on the best routes to take on Huangshan Mountain. We appreciated being able to leave our larger luggage at the hotel, allowing us to travel lighter for our overnight mountain stay. The room was adequately sized for our brief visit, although the shower cabin was somewhat cramped. Upon returning to collect our luggage, the proprietor greeted us warmly and offered a refreshing drink before our departure.

wonderful stay: a super host (not pushy but very willing to help and speaks good english) very friendly staff (fantastic cat), beautiful rooms, a lovely relaxation area where you can get a good espresso/café latte and tasty snacks and the best breakfast, among other things. And all that in a very nice environment.

The location is great. The hotel is a little bit far from the bus station, but there is a pick up service, so there were no trouble. The distance from the hotel to the bus to Huangshan is very walkable with many restaurants around the area. The staff was super nice and spoke very fluid english. If having any doubts about the mountain, they sure will know.

Perfect! The staff was so friendly. They gave us so much information all in English. The bed and shower were perfect as well. And you can walk to the entrance of Huangshan. I would recommend it.

Super cool. Service is extremly good. All worked out fine,. Taxi to North Railway Station was perfect (30RMB). Location cannot be better. 10 Minutes walk to South Gate. There are a lot of places to eat... For me best place. Thanks to this young Team, you did a perfect Job. The introduction to Yellow mountain was great and finally it worden out. I wish you all the best, hopefully a lot of customers. By the way, englisch is welcome there. The communication was cool .

We stayed one night, before heading up to 黄山 in the morning - location was convenient and peaceful, tucked away further up from the main hubbub of the transfer hub but only 10 min walk from 南大门 to get on the mountain shuttle bus. The local town is charming to walk around - lots of restaurants and shops to stock up on walking snacks and local produce. The hotel manager spoke fluent English, which helped my English partner feel included. He helped us plan our walking route with useful must-sees, how to avoid closed off sections, areas of heavy foot traffic etc. Room is well equipped and comfortable, we had a romantic balcony overlooking the stream! Only downside is our room was next to the stairwell, and a large family was playing and shouting up and down the stairwell late into the evening (but this is not the hotel’s fault). Would recommend visiting 黄山 on a weekday, or even in slightly rainy weather if you don’t mind getting wet: Thu-Fri it was rainy/misty but beautifully tranquil and peaceful, almost no queuing at all on any parts. When we left on Saturday it was sunny but also extremely busy with big tour groups and aggressive crowds (luckily this was our leaving day).
