Deqin Hotels with Parking

What you see is what you get - or even more! This place is truly a sanctuary designed and curated with great intention. We rested well after coming back from our yubeng hike. we arrived late at 930pm, however I managed to order my dinner with the hotel via WeChat, and they heated it up for us after we arrived even though the kitchen closed at 730. we had the chicken mushroom hotpot, a Yunnan classic and very well done there. The staff offered us hot milk for the night too :) The room is beautiful and comfortable and spacious. there is a tub which we could have a good soak after hiking. Breakfast was great too with options for coffee and butter yak milk. we stayed through the morning in the lobby area, browsing their books and merchandise. The staff also patiently introduced us to the various linden centre projects, various wines that is produced in the region and let us try some before we left. Knowing that we were taking a train to lijiang, she even checked if we arrived safely. Highly highly recommend. So value for money :) can't wait to return!

I was quite disappointed with the service at Ji Xia Shan. Their proactiveness is severely lacking, and their service awareness is simply not enough. When they mess up and upset a customer, all they do is apologize and ask for understanding, expecting the customer to just swallow it and deal with it themselves. There's absolutely no action taken, it's like knocking someone over, only saying sorry but not helping them up. I booked Ji Xia Shan several days in advance, but by almost 8 PM the night before check-in, no one had contacted me to add a butler's WeChat. I had to call them to ask if they even had a butler service. The hotel said they did, and that they had simply overlooked me. Later, they called back to explain that they had tried to call me around 3 PM but no one picked up, and then they asked Ctrip to send me a text message and didn't follow up further. I checked the Ctrip information, and it didn't say the hotel couldn't reach me, and with so many text messages, I wouldn't check every single one. Furthermore, when checking out, the front desk had absolutely no farewell gift prepared. As I got into the car and was about to close the door and leave, I asked the bellboy who had helped with luggage: ”Didn't the package say it included a farewell gift?” The bellboy then realized and said, ”Wait a moment,” and went in to get a keychain. This is unlike other hotels where farewell gifts are readily given out during check-out. Another thing I'm particularly unhappy about is: definitely do NOT book the Yunling room type in summer! It was advertised that we could see Jade Dragon Snow Mountain and Meili Snow Mountain, but due to lush vegetation, the snow-capped mountains were completely obstructed! See pictures one and two; I felt deceived! It would have been better to book the cheapest room type and go to the 4th-floor cafe observation deck to see the snow mountains. I ended up wasting over a thousand yuan! Also, this hotel has no elevator. To get to the observation deck, you have to climb stairs. Every time I climbed to the fourth floor, I was out of breath. If you have altitude sickness, I'd strongly advise against it. The only thing to praise is the young woman working at the 4th-floor cafe. She was all smiles, and her photography skills were excellent. When I asked her to help take pictures, she was genuinely enthusiastic and patient. Ji Xia Shan is considered a relatively well-known hotel in the Meili Snow Mountain area. Many places try to imitate Songtsam, for example, serving ginger tea and hot towels during check-in, or using keys for all door locks. However, it seems they've only copied Songtsam's superficial aspects; their service is worlds apart. And for Songtsam's snow mountain view rooms, you can truly lie in bed and face the snow mountains directly, being able to admire them from your bed (see picture six). The price of over three thousand yuan is well worth it. But Ji Xia Shan's snow mountain view rooms, which are even more expensive than Songtsam's, offer absolutely no view of the snow mountains. And the difference in service is even greater.

The room was clean, and the landlady was very welcoming. There is a viewing platform on the top floor, but with a construction tower crane right in front, you have to go to an external viewing platform to catch the view of the golden sunrise on the peaks. It's very close to the Feilai Temple viewing platform—just a 5-6 minute walk. There are plenty of dining options nearby, and parking is available.

Fantastic, fabulous, and fascinating! This homestay in Benzilan is pure magic! The location is serene, the accommodation spotless, and the people—simply outstanding. The hosts treat you like family, always smiling and going the extra mile to make your stay unforgettable. Honestly, leaving this place is the hardest part! It’s hands down my best stay in Yunnan. If you’re heading to Deqin for Meili Snow Mountain, this is a must-stay. Highly recommended!

Location and Environment: We chose room 402, 'Jian Shan' (Mountain View), which had a large, unobstructed terrace. The view was almost as good as from the rooftop, so there was no need to climb up there; we could just sit on the balcony and wait for the snow-capped mountains to appear. We were incredibly lucky! The day we checked in, it was raining with a lot of mist and clouds, and we thought we wouldn't see anything. But to our surprise, the next morning, we miraculously saw all thirteen peaks! The hotel's location is excellent; you can see everything clearly from the balcony, no need to go to the Wu Nong Ding observation deck. Facilities: The room was well-equipped with underfloor heating, an oxygen concentrator, and a humidifier. The only minor drawback was that the humidifier didn't look very clean, so we didn't dare use it, which made it a bit dry at night. It definitely needs better cleaning. Food: Dinner was excellent. We ordered a small hot pot with yak meat, and the 1.5 jin (approx. 750g) of yak meat was plentiful and came with several vegetables. The yak meat was tender, flavorful, and incredibly fragrant. The server was also very attentive. We also received complimentary welcome snacks, fruit, and drinks. Service: The hotel also recommended a driver to take us to Ninong the next day, which we greatly appreciated! I highly recommend staying here because the location and environment are simply superb!

On my way back from Tibet, I was unlucky and didn't catch the sunrise on the golden mountains, but the stay was great. The owner was incredibly warm and genuine, very attentive, and an excellent chef (the ground floor is a restaurant, and compared to other places nearby, this one was convenient and offered great value for money. Plus, getting a good meal on this trip was a rare treat). The room was new, well-equipped, and had oxygen supply. The floor-to-ceiling windows were quite relaxing. Last time I was here, parking was a nightmare, but this time they actually had a parking lot!

I've been home for a while, but I still feel compelled to leave an honest review. First off, there was construction going on outside when I arrived, and I was completely shocked. I had really been looking forward to the big lawn, but as you can see in the picture, it looked nothing like the promotional photos. I had no idea when I booked. If it's going to look different from the pictures for a while, shouldn't those display photos be taken down? Secondly, when I asked the guesthouse owner about it, there was no apology whatsoever. The first thing they said was, 'This room originally costs 580.' What kind of attitude is that? Do they think I can't afford the original price or something?… The prices on product listings are set by the sellers themselves. If the pictures had been accurate and I liked them, I still would have booked. Do I need to do a background check every time I book a room? If they had just told me beforehand that there was construction and that's why it was discounted, I wouldn't have been so angry. However, in all fairness, you can tell the design is quite good. Looking past the exterior, the interior of the house, its facilities, and environment are all excellent. It has a smart toilet, an oxygen generator, a humidifier with heating, a skylight, and so on. It's also very clean. So, you can tell the guesthouse aims for a high-end experience. It's about a ten-minute walk from Feilai Temple Observation Deck, and breakfast is provided. So, overall, the stay was still OK. Therefore, I still suggest that if there are such significant discrepancies between the hotel and its promotional photos or advertised services, it would be helpful to prepare guests mentally beforehand.

The room was cozy, clean, and comfortable, with a tasteful decor throughout. The underfloor heating and diffused oxygen supply meant we didn't have to worry about altitude sickness at all. The staff were warm and friendly! There's also a cafe and an observation deck on the top floor where you can see Baima Snow Mountain and Feilai Temple. The afternoon sun was perfect for photos, and the scenery was absolutely stunning! The hotel's location isn't far from the Meili Snow Mountain observation deck, so transportation is very convenient. There's a snack street near the Feilai Temple observation deck, and watching the snow-capped mountains in the evening is beautiful—highly recommended! The hotel's restaurant is on the first floor, which is super convenient if you don't feel like going out in the cold.

I chose this hotel to see the Meili Snow Mountain. It's close to the Feilai Temple observation deck, a good location, only about a ten-minute walk. There are many restaurants nearby for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Since I booked a special offer room, I didn't expect too much; the room was very small. But I was incredibly lucky and got to see the beautiful Meili Snow Mountain.

Getting to the hotel requires turning off National Highway 214 onto a village road, which was completely dark at night. At that moment, I regretted booking this place. However, after driving down that small road for about 5 minutes, we finally arrived, and I immediately felt that my choice was actually a good one. Once we entered the room, my worries completely disappeared! The room felt like a 4-star standard and, thankfully, was smoke-free. Even better, each room had a copy of the 'Brief Introduction to Diqing Prefecture,' a very professional, detailed, and comprehensive book that helps you quickly and systematically understand the area. The hotel restaurant's food was good (though a bit salty for us southerners). The prices weren't cheap, around 50 RMB per person, but given the generous portions, I wouldn't say it was expensive. The main benefit was not having to go out to eat, which saved time and effort. The hotel's environment and ambiance were perfect; it truly felt like a manor. I heard it used to be a vineyard that later upgraded to tourism services. Because it's far from the town and main road, it's incredibly quiet, and you can even see the peak of Meili Snow Mountain directly from here.
