Mountain View Hotels in Chongqing

I had a truly wonderful stay! 🥹❤️ First of all, a huge shout-out to the customer service team—their service exceeded all expectations! A week before our arrival, they had already set up a WeChat group to help us arrange transportation from the airport or high-speed rail station to the hotel. They even listed estimated taxi travel times and fares in detail, and prepared a travel guide in advance. It was so thoughtful and really gave us peace of mind before we even set off. During our stay, whenever we had a question and asked in the WeChat group, the staff replied almost instantly, so we never had to worry about not being able to reach anyone. Since some family members don't eat spicy food, we had a few concerns about dining. To our surprise, they even took care of these little details and recommended plenty of suitable restaurants and local delicacies. We are so grateful for their patience and dedication! 🥰 Atlas, the room was very clean and fully equipped with everything we needed. We didn't run into any issues during our stay. However, what surprised me even more than the room itself was their service! From the pre-trip transportation arrangements and travel guides to handling various questions during our stay, you could really feel that they genuinely care for every guest, rather than just going through the motions. Encountering such thoughtful and prompt customer service during a trip really makes the whole journey so much easier and heartwarming. My stay this time was simply fantastic, especially the service—a massive thumbs-up! If I have the chance to visit again, this will definitely be my top choice, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking for a great place to stay! ❤️

Amidst the bustle of Shancheng Alley, The Xiang Hotel felt like a gentle, unexpected sanctuary. It harbors the stories of this mountain city while preserving the century-old history of Ren'ai Hall. ”A distant journey within the city”—how perfectly those four words capture it. There's no need to drag your luggage all over; simply push open the heavy wooden doors of the 1900 French heritage building, and you step away from the lively, down-to-earth Shancheng Alley and straight into the timeless elegance of century-old Ren'ai Hall. Here, everything is seamlessly taken care of, from afternoon tea and good-night sweet soup to breakfast. The service is attentive and meticulous without ever feeling forced, making you feel completely at ease. As I was leaving, I received a box of Chongqing ”old eagle tea” as a parting gift, allowing me to bring the unique flavor of the mountain city back home with me.

This place is unbeatable! The room is super close to Jiaochangkou Metro Station, making transportation incredibly convenient. The building is less than 100 meters in a straight line from the subway exit. There's more than one entrance to the building, so it's more convenient to communicate in advance after booking. The lady at reception helped us upgrade to a river-view room, and the view was absolutely beautiful! 🌹 The room was spacious enough, very close to many must-visit attractions, and the facilities were comprehensive, making it a great experience for a family trip. There are multiple food streets right outside, so dining is super convenient. It's also very close to Jiefangbei, Shibatidang, and Shanched Budao, all within easy walking distance. The service experience was just as good; disposable amenities in the room were replenished very promptly. Luggage storage after check-out was seamless. It's a great choice I'd recommend to friends.

Longmen Pu Village: A Serene Escape into Chongqing's Mountain Charm As an avid traveler, I recently had the pleasure of experiencing Longmen Pu Village, a remarkable resort nestled in the heart of Chongqing's stunning mountain landscape. From the moment I arrived, I was captivated by the seamless blend of modern comforts and the region's rich, traditional charm. The resort's accommodations are a true delight – beautifully designed rooms that effortlessly combine sleek, contemporary aesthetics with the warmth and character of the local countryside. The attention to detail is truly impressive, creating a sense of tranquility and authenticity that is all too rare in today's hospitality landscape. One of the standout features of my stay was the opportunity to explore the entire village on my last night. Navigating the winding paths felt like stepping into an adventure game, with new discoveries at every turn. The sense of wonder and excitement I felt was akin to being a child again, truly immersed in the magic of the mountain setting. The service at Longmen Pu Village is equally impressive. Prior to my arrival, I had connected with the customer service team on WeChat, and they were well-prepared and attentive to my needs. Upon check-in, I was welcomed with delectable local Chongqing specialties, a delightful introduction to the culinary delights that awaited me. The highlight of my stay, however, was the opportunity to enjoy the stunning sunsets from various vantage points around the resort, cigar in hand and fresh fruit nearby. These moments of peaceful contemplation, immersed in the beauty of the mountains, will be etched in my memory forever. Beyond the breathtaking views, the resort also offered engaging activities that allowed me to fully immerse myself in the local culture. I had the privilege of learning the art of potting plants and marveling at the impressive bonsai tree collection, a true treat for a plant enthusiast like myself. The calligraphy session at the on-site tea house was also a wonderful experience, providing a moment of tranquil meditation amidst the adventure. While I would recommend Longmen Pu Village to any traveler seeking a unique and authentic escape, I would advise international guests to have a basic understanding of the Chinese language or be prepared to utilize translation apps. This slight challenge, however, is well worth the reward of experiencing this remarkable resort. In conclusion, Longmen Pu Village is a true gem, a resort that has masterfully preserved the local charm and flavor of Chongqing's stunning mountain region. Whether you're seeking a serene retreat or an immersive cultural experience, this resort delivers an unforgettable journey that I wholeheartedly recommend.

The Westin gave the most satisfying answer to what it truly means to feel at home. From the moment we arrived, the doorman greeted us with a warm smile, opened the car door, took our luggage, and escorted us inside. It was such a comfortable, effortless, and seamless experience. Located on the 50th floor, the lobby delivered top-tier service. The check-in process was highly professional, featuring a detailed introduction to the hotel's amenities and the perks we were entitled to, all explained clearly. Handing us a local tourist map on the spot was a wonderfully thoughtful touch. Moving on to the room, the welcome letter from the manager and the check-in refreshments were exquisite and considerate. The bedding struck the perfect balance between firmness and softness, and when we requested buckwheat pillows, housekeeping delivered them promptly. The bathroom features a smart toilet, with separate sets of toiletries for both the bathtub and the shower. As for other highlights, the river view outside the window—especially the sparkling lights at night—had a unique charm. The fitness center is fully equipped with towels and drinking water, and the standard gym equipment easily caters to daily workout needs. A special mention goes to the hotel's Chuan Shang restaurant, which completely blew me away. We enjoyed authentic Mapo Tofu, Twice-Cooked Pork, and delicious soft-shell turtle. The spice was mellow rather than harsh, and the umami flavor was delightful. Best of all were the complimentary side dishes—not perfunctory or compromised in the least. Paired with the view outside the window, it was simply unbeatable. We ordered four dishes, and the attentive server kindly suggested we could order half-portions to avoid wasting food. The prices here are moderate, and the flavors can be adjusted to be lighter or heavier, fully catering to the diverse preferences of guests. The breakfast offered a mix of Chinese and Western options, catering to both local and out-of-town guests. Staff members cleared tables promptly and guided us to our seats. The location is also a huge advantage: Jiefangbei is within a 10-minute walk, and Kuixinglou and Daijiaxiang take about 15 minutes. For those with a bit more stamina, the Shancheng Third Step Ancient Path is within walking distance. Around Jiefangbei, the Bayi Food Street and popular local hole-in-the-wall eateries are everywhere. All in all, this was a wonderful trip. The Westin, in particular, provided a home-like comfort and peace of mind amidst our busy daily itineraries. Thank you to all the staff at The Westin for the warmth and joy you brought us. We look forward to meeting you again! (Note: All photos were taken inside the hotel.)

I highly recommend staying at this hotel! It is right at the very center of downtown Chongqing. Any place you might want to visit is a short walk away or a short walk to the metro station! The hotel is clean and the room is supercool with a view of all the city skyscrapers. The hotel staff is super friendly and accomodating, we enjoyed seeing them every morning and evening! As for Chongqing, if you're traveling through China and you've already had your share of 'old towns' in other cities, as charming and pretty as they may be, they are always super busy and kind of end up looking the same. This is why I highly recommend switching Ciqikou in your planning to doing the 'Chonqging mountain city walkway' starting at dashiangba water system (so you can walk downhill) and getting lost in the narrow alleys with stairs and shops, this will give you a REAL ancient city vibe, full of young people and small shops. I also highly recommend going to longmenhou old street and Xiaohao lane. These were the absolute highlights of our stay in Chongqing! Right across the hotel is the Chongqing tea theatre with lots of food options. If you take the escalator upstairs and look to your left, there is a buffet restaurant with sooo much good food, we had breakfast there twice (you pay based on how heavy your platter is) and we really enjoyed it, very cheap for good amounts of meat and vegetables!

The rooms are clean, and the breakfast offers a wide variety of choices. There's also a cozy lounge area with a nice ambiance, giving a good feel for local culture. The location is convenient, very close to Chiyou Jiuli City. On the fourth floor, there's an observation deck where you can enjoy the night view. The only downside is that rooms facing the road can be a bit noisy when cars pass by.

The hotel room is nice, the toilet is super big, the staff is very enthusiastic, the heating in the room is a little poor, the air conditioner is a little loud, but the heating is not very sufficient, but there is an electric blanket, so it won't be cold when sleeping. The balcony looks out to the vast snow, beautiful

STAFF APPRECIATION: I would like to thank Xiao Yang, Xiao Yi, and Master Li for their care during my stay. They were kind, professional, warm, patient, and proactive. They were also incredibly accommodating with my inability to speak more than a little Chinese. Xiao Yang even made a point to speak English with me during breakfast and checkout. Master Li was very tolerant with my last-minute requests for pickup and drop off and Xiao Yi quickly located and added me on WeChat to allow us to chat more comfortably. As it was raining, she even met me by the car with an umbrella when I arrived. I felt quite pampered! DIRECTIONS: To reach the hotel requires a few transfers. It's not too troublesome and is well worth it! 1) I arrived at the Wulong South Railway 🚉 and followed the exit signs outside. 2) To the left was the large blue bus 🚌 mentioned by another reviewer. It will take you to the Fairy Mountain Visitor Center for 16 yuan. From here you can reach the most popular tourist destinations in Wulong to include the Three Bridges. 3) Outside the center you’ll find another blue fairy bus which will take you to the mountain itself for an additional 8 yuan. This bus will stop at the gate where tickets will be checked. Be sure to contact the hotel and give them your information before you set off because the cost of this ticket is included with your stay! They will reserve the ticket for you and send you confirmation and any relevant information. Otherwise, it is 50 yuan per person. 4) This bus will drop you off at a plaza with a few shops and the boarding platform for the scenic train. 🚂 Contact the hotel and someone will come to pick you up, as private vehicles are not permitted beyond this point. REVIEW: If availability and your budget permit, I cannot emphasize strongly enough how much it is worth it to splurge on the room with a 270-degree view of the property. I went on a foggy, wet weekend and still found the view incredible. The windows cover three walls. I can only imagine how amazing the sky must look on a clear night. The minibar has a good selection of free snacks and drinks and a sampling of the local tea. Meals are also served at the hotel. The cost is not low, but for the exclusivity of the location, I considered it more than fair compared to what I’ve paid elsewhere. Also, the dishes looked and tasted great. There are also vendors down the hill where the train and shops (show in the picture below) are located. Look for the sign identifying the train exit and go down the steps. These were the only places I saw to purchase food, drinks, or supplies once you pass the entrance to the mountain, so plan accordingly. By the way, tickets for the scenic train were included with the reservation as well. I highly recommend it. It stops at the grasslands and the horse stables. Now, I will allow the pictures to speak for me. TLDR: Multiple transfers lead to a place that is secluded and picturesque and right in the heart of the mountain. That means your dining choices will also be limited, but the meals provided (at a cost) were delicious. Tickets to the mountain and scenic train are included in the price. A photo session is included as well, but I did not utilize it. I recommend setting out earlier to miss the worst of the crowds. The staff is amazing and the rooms are clean and comfortable. The room with the 270-degree view offers the best experience. 10/10 recommend for those seeking quiet and the peace only nature can bring. 🏞

Service overall was very pleasant and worth every penny we paid! All the staff were very polite and greeted us whenever they saw us. A special shoutout to Ashe, who was incredibly helpful, attentive and shared some interesting history about the resort and the hotspring with us. We especially enjoyed the food at the resort. 过桥米线 was definitely the star of the meals, and 碳烤冬瓜猪 was also super delicious. I also loved their breakfast, which included several local noodle selections - my favourite was the 豌杂面! A small downside was that some areas outside the main resort area felt a little run-down, and there were mosquitoes in the open-air dining area. However, the restaurant thoughtfully provided mosquito repellent and mosquito coils, so it was manageable overall.
