Boutique Hotels in Jilin, China

Beautiful hotel. Grand entrance with chandelier. Easy check in. Warm welcome from staff. Hotel staff Assisted with every request and made the holiday pleasant. Room had beautiful river and city views. Was actually better than the pictures online. Breakfast location: High ceilings and full windows overlooking the city and river. Spacious. Great selection of different cuisines. Highly recommended. Will definitely visit again.

This hotel stay completely redefined my understanding of what a truly excellent accommodation should be! From the moment I stepped into the hotel, the warm lighting and soothing music in the lobby immediately put me at ease. The front desk staff were incredibly friendly and professional; check-in was super efficient, and they even proactively upgraded my room, which was a delightful surprise! The hotel also thoughtfully provided Type-C charging ports. The room itself was absolutely flawless: the bedding was incredibly soft, and with the blackout curtains drawn, it created a perfect sleeping environment. Even the bathroom was impressive, featuring a smart toilet and a large rainfall showerhead – every detail showcased thoughtful design and comfort. The hotel gym was equipped with brand-new machines. Breakfast offered such a vast selection that it was hard to choose, with everything from Chinese hot congee and fried dough sticks to Western pastries and coffee, truly catering to all tastes. The location is also superb, just a few minutes' walk from the nearest subway station, making getting around incredibly convenient. This entire stay was absolutely perfect – a definite five-star experience! I wouldn't hesitate to choose this hotel again for my next trip.

I was extremely impressed with this stay; it certainly lives up to its reputation as a local five-star hotel. The moment we arrived at the hotel entrance, a bellboy promptly ran over to assist with our luggage, escorting us all the way to the front desk. This immediately made us feel incredibly welcome and at home. The front desk staff were very welcoming and efficient during check-in. As we hadn't opted for breakfast at the hotel, they thoughtfully provided detailed information about the operating hours of the nearby floating market, suggesting it as an alternative for breakfast options – an incredibly thoughtful gesture. The hotel's location is excellent. It's very convenient to visit popular spots like the 'Internet-famous Wall' and West Market. There are also plenty of dining options right nearby, including BBQ restaurants and Hailanjiang Stone Pot Rice. If you prefer not to venture far, the hotel itself offers a great selection of Korean, Western, and Chinese cuisine. The room facilities were also excellent, with comfortable bedding. Overall, I highly commend the service here.

This time we visited the north slope of Changbai Mountain. Staying in Erdaobaihe is convenient for shopping (it's too cold outdoors) but not ideal for mountain access. So, we opted for the DoubleTree (a bit pricey for the value). It's located less than 2km from the north slope entrance. The VIP pass provided upon check-in means we're not restricted by the park's entry times. There's a shuttle from the hotel to the park gate, you just need to register at the concierge desk after checking in – very convenient. Reviews usually start with the positives before the negatives. **Praises:** 1. The lady who checked me in (forgot to check her name tag) had an excellent and appropriately enthusiastic service level. She explained everything clearly. 2. The hotel breakfast was great, with a good selection of both Chinese and Western options. There were plenty of choices, two coffee machines, and even ice available. 3. I stayed on the top floor, and my balcony faced east, offering beautiful sunrise views. 4. The hotel environment is fantastic, nestled in the woods. The scenery after a winter snowfall is stunning, giving it a jungle cabin vibe. **Areas for Improvement:** 1. Two days before check-in, the hotel contacted me to ask if I needed butler service. This is a great initiative, but the young lady who called sounded very reluctant, almost like she didn't want to make the call. Either it's a staffing issue or a training one. 2. The hotel isn't old, but the shower drain had a pretty strong odor, especially when dry. It improved after showering for a while and the water flushed it, but the next morning the smell was quite noticeable again. 3. I don't understand why the hot spring building is separate from the main hotel. You have to walk outdoors to get to it. While it can't be changed now, this design feels a bit inconvenient and poorly thought out.

The Grand Hyatt Changchun is probably the best hotel in Changchun. First, my complaints: Honestly, the design is illogical. The driveway from the car entrance/exit to the lobby is a tiny, U-shaped hairpin turn! The public area of the lobby has no sofas, so a bunch of people were standing around waiting to check in! The underground parking garage is practically for expert drivers only! It was the National Day holiday, and we booked two king rooms. One room's key card was ready at 3 PM, but the other wasn't available until 5 PM. Last year during the National Day holiday, the InterContinental Taiyuan's efficiency was far, far better than the Grand Hyatt Changchun. Now, for the praise: The decor is very new, the rooms are spacious, and having the toilet and shower separate is a huge plus. The facilities are also very new, and the bedding meets Grand Hyatt's high standards. When they couldn't free up a room, they upgraded us. A senior manager in the lobby, who spoke fluent Cantonese, was excellent at communicating and managing the situation. Her attitude was very good, and she handled issues promptly. I hope the hotel can improve its service efficiency and optimize processes like check-in, public areas, and luggage service. Ultimately, if you come to Changchun, I still recommend staying at the Grand Hyatt Changchun. It's centrally located, and the facilities are great. I give it five stars. However, try to avoid coming during holidays; your experience might be better on weekdays.

Decided to visit Yanji last minute for a food trip and booked this hotel. The manager was very thoughtful, calling to remind us about the sudden drop in temperature to add more layers. When booking, I hadn't realized it was a windowless room, but since there were three of us with a child, the considerate manager upgraded us to a family room, which was a pleasant surprise. Overall, it was a great experience. The breakfast featured local specialties. The only minor issue was that the room was too hot; I woke up in the middle of the night feeling overheated and just endured it rather than bothering the night manager. The hotel also provided a Yanji travel guide.

The hotel is very clean but when I was there with my family, there are a lot of constructions ongoing near the hotel and it was raining every single day when we are at Changchun. The hotel staff is very nice and efficient esp when we had only 30 mins to board our train to head to Changbaishan. The hotel staff, Fu Yang, is able to cater for us and understand that we are rushing for time. We managed to board our train successfully thanks to Ms Fu Yang. The breakfast options were rather limited. There was a signage saying that we could have how we wanted our eggs. We requested for the chef to cook it; the chef booked for us unwillingly and gave us an attitude. From the previous guest reviews, there are many positive reviews with regards to the buffet hence we decided to pay for the breakfast buffet. Overall, we will still stay in the same hotel if we visit Changchun once again. :) Side note, the train station was rather far away from the hotel. However, DiDi works fine too.

The hotel's overall performance was really hassle-free. While the facilities aren't luxurious, they are perfectly functional. The USB charging ports by the bed were especially convenient, and the hairdryer had plenty of power, so I didn't have to wait long to dry my hair after showering. The cleanliness was impeccable; the bedding felt crisp and soft, the bathroom's glass door was spotless with no water stains, the toilet was clean and odorless, and even the trash cans were tidied up very well. The environment was very pleasant, with a small garden downstairs for a simple stroll. The room's soundproofing was good, so I wasn't disturbed at night. The service was particularly thoughtful. I forgot my charger when checking in, and the front desk helped me find a compatible one to borrow. When cleaning the room, they even neatly arranged my water glasses. These little details really added to the experience. I'll definitely choose this place again next time I'm in town.

The room was clean, tidy, and comfortable. The housekeeping staff had a great service attitude. There was a continuous supply of hot water and heating. The hotel offers a shuttle service with drivers, and we interacted a lot with one particular driver who was exceptionally nice. The other drivers were also very good; they were willing to give us free rides to restaurants (whenever they were available) and even recommended good places to eat. The front desk staff was also wonderful and upgraded our room for free. Highly recommend staying here! Wishing everyone a fun trip!

Daling was super helpful! 👍 She proactively attended to the needs of the children in our group and was incredibly considerate throughout. The hotel's forest trail was perfect for little ones to play in the snow, have snowball fights, and build snowmen ☃️. The hot spring experience also kept the kids completely entertained. It was a comfortable and joyful winter outing with the little ones.
