2-Star Hotels in Qingyang

A truly exceptional stay on Jiuhuashan I have stayed in many guesthouses across China, but this one stands out in a very special way. From the very first moment, the communication via WeChat was friendly, quick, and reliable – even though my Chinese is limited and the staff’s English is not extensive. Still, everything worked beautifully. Warm, patient, uncomplicated. It already gives you the feeling that you are in good hands. I stayed for two days, and throughout my entire time there, everything was perfectly organized. I was picked up right on time upon arrival – an invaluable service in a mountain area that can be a little confusing for newcomers. The guesthouse itself is extremely comfortable: warm, well-designed rooms with excellent facilities, a huge screen, electric curtains, cozy bedding, and all the small details that make travel easier. I immediately felt welcomed and well taken care of. During my stay, the staff assisted me with everything I needed, always with kindness and without any complications. When it was time to leave, they also arranged transport back to my bus at exactly the time I requested. Truly flawless service. But the most extraordinary highlight was something I did not expect at all: the free guided tour that the homestay organizes for all their guests. They drove us to the starting point, and then we spent the day walking through the misty mountain paths, visiting nine of the most important temples on Jiuhuashan. It was magical – quiet, mysterious, deeply atmospheric. Our guide took wonderful care of everyone, explained so much about the temples, the mountain, the history, and the spirit of Dizang Bodhisattva, and created a sense of depth that went far beyond sightseeing. This was not a tourist activity. It was a spiritual and cultural experience – something you can only receive from people who truly love their mountain and want to share it with others. In the fog, among ancient stones, incense smoke, and the sound of footsteps on wet leaves, one begins to understand why Jiuhuashan has been a sacred place for centuries. My conclusion: This homestay offers not only comfort, warmth, and excellent service, but also a genuine connection to the spiritual heart of Jiuhuashan. I can recommend Tanxiangyuan Homestay without any hesitation. For pilgrims, travelers, lovers of nature, or anyone seeking a meaningful experience, this place is simply perfect. I am grateful for every moment I spent there.

It's really great to find such a guesthouse on Mount Jiuhua! The room was spotless; I usually pay close attention to hygiene details, and the hotel's floors, bedding, and bathroom were all impeccably clean! Having underfloor heating in winter and hot shower water was a huge plus! The owner was also wonderful, offering pick-up and drop-off service once we arrived at the scenic area. Breakfast was made fresh to order, and I slept incredibly well! I'll definitely stay here again if I come back. I previously stayed at a Fullon Hotel at the foot of the mountain, and I felt this place was even better! As for soundproofing, it was very quiet after 9 PM when everyone was resting. The other guests during my stay were all very considerate and quiet. I wish the owner great success; it provided an excellent accommodation experience on the mountain!

I highly recommend Baofojiao Youth Hostel for solo travelers to Jiuhua Mountain. The rooms are very clean and odor-free. The bathroom has a smart toilet, and the cleaning staff keeps it spotless. There's a very friendly cat at the hostel; I heard it was a stray cat adopted by previous volunteers, and it's incredibly cute. The staff are also very friendly and patiently explain the Jiuhua Mountain itinerary. Sitting on the bench outside the hostel and just relaxing is especially comfortable.

The staff (小谢）was very friendly and helpful. She picked us up at the entrance to Jiuhuashan scenic area 迎仙桥站. Our room was on level one near to the main door, very convenient for elderly couple like us. We asked the host to prepare dinner for us for 2 nights at reasonable price. On the last day, they even helped us to book a private car hire to fetch us all the way to Jiuhuashan station, saving us the hassle of queuing for the bus with heavy luggage cases. Kudos to the staff and highly recommended.

**Warm and Attentive Service:** The guesthouse owner and staff were incredibly welcoming. They contacted us in advance to pick us up from the scenic area entrance and even helped plan our itinerary based on our schedule. They even personally drove us to some temples, explaining Buddhist teachings and incense-offering rules – a real treat on a rainy day! **Excellent Location:** The guesthouse is located in the heart of Jiuhua Street, making it convenient for getting around. It's close to major attractions such as the Rou Shen Bao Dian (Hall of the Fleshly Body), Huacheng Temple, and Bai Sui Gong (Hundred-Year-Old Palace). **Beautiful and Zen-like Environment:** The guesthouse has a Zen-like ambiance. A winding bluestone path leads through the courtyard, where greenery and rustic wooden buildings complement each other beautifully. There's also a separate tea room and relaxation area, perfect for enjoying tea and relaxation. **Great Dining Experience:** The owner's home-style cooking was excellent. The braised pork and braised chicken were particularly delicious – 👍🏻

Our stay was absolutely fantastic! The B&B was spotless and well-maintained, with a cozy and comfortable layout. Every detail was thoughtfully taken care of, and the natural light and ventilation were excellent, making for a truly relaxing experience. The host was incredibly warm and attentive, always patiently and promptly answering any questions we had – the service was outstanding. The location was also super convenient, making getting around and finding food a breeze. This place offers incredible value for money, and I'll definitely choose it again on my next visit. Highly recommend it to everyone!

The hotel environment is particularly good, there is a platform on the third floor to dry clothes is also convenient, the health is very good, the boss is particularly good, #Room facilities, complete facilities, clean, #Cost-effective, very cost-effective, recommended stay

The boss is very nice. The overall design is neo-Chinese, which is quite innovative. A clean and tidy environment makes people feel happy and easy to attract wealth. Because I came to Jiuhua Mountain on a whim, I booked a hotel on short notice, and there were basically no suitable single rooms. This partitioned single room has a different artistic conception. Cleanliness is the key. The boss is very enthusiastic and will answer any questions.

The owner was very welcoming, and the house was nicely decorated, though the pictures don't quite do it justice. I'm not sure how to write this review, but the room was definitely a bit noisy. It got extremely noisy at night with the air conditioning on. The car horns on the street were very noticeable throughout the night in our room. But thankfully, since we were visiting a temple, we all woke up early, so the room was basically an automatic wake-up call; we didn't need an alarm clock at all.

The boss drove to the ticket office to pick me up. The boss and his family were very friendly. They also brought me a thin blanket at my request. The service was excellent. The room was as shown in the picture. Objectively speaking, it was in line with its price. After all, it was not expensive. It was clean and tidy. The only problem was that the shower door in the bathroom was not closed tightly and the water leaked outside. The water temperature was sometimes hot and sometimes cold.
