Family-friendly Hotels in Daocheng

Snow Garden Hotel is almost a ******* Museum: on almost every wall is something of cultural interest. As is so often the case in China the group of young women on reception duties band together to help the linguistically challenged foreign tourist. The hotel is situated in Jinzhu Town, which is about half way between Daocheng Airport and Yading Scenic Area, helpful for acclimatisation. It is on one of the main streets, with easy access to shops and eateries.

The scenery along the way was beautiful and the climate was cool. I was very satisfied with the hotel I stayed in. The owner and waiters were very enthusiastic, and there was a free and good breakfast. In short, it was a pleasant trip.

The hotel is very upscale and classy. The waitresses and ladies are very enthusiastic! As soon as we parked the car, he helped us with our luggage. He was so enthusiastic. The room was nice, clean and spacious. What surprised me most was that this cost-effective hotel room also came with mineral water and coffee for free. The breakfast was very good, very good, and very suitable to our taste.

The room is clean and tidy, the supporting facilities are complete, the parking is convenient, the room is very spacious and bright, beautiful, the hot spring water washes away the fatigue of the day, the night sleep is very quiet, the waiter is very good, the boss is very enthusiastic, shopping is convenient, there is a big supermarket downstairs, I will definitely stay at this hotel next time.

I carefully wrote this review on the way back to Chengdu from Daocheng Yading. After we climbed Daocheng Five-Colored Sea and Milk Sea that day, we decided to find a hot spring hotel on the way back to Litang in the evening, soak in a hot spring to relieve fatigue and relax. After looking at many hotels, I finally chose Dear Homestay because the price is very affordable and the room has its own hot spring pool, so there is no need to prepare a swimsuit or change clothes outside. After arriving at the B&B, I found that the environment of the B&B is very good. The owner of the small yard planted many flowers, various leisure chairs, and various small lights, which are very atmospheric. The boss is from Chongqing. As soon as we arrived at the B&B, he helped us carry our luggage, arrange the room, and get hot spring water. He was very enthusiastic and enthusiastic. The hotel provides free parking and the rooms are very clean. The hot springs in particular are authentic and very comfortable to soak in. At around 11 o'clock in the evening, we wanted to have a late-night barbecue, but the B&B only had Chinese food, so the boss very enthusiastically told us where in Daocheng we could have barbecue. We came back too late, but the boss opened the door for us in time. The breakfast we had at the B&B the next morning was simple, but hygienic, clean and nutritious. The whole experience was super good. We were two couples who stayed here. We all felt that the price, service and other aspects were very good. We highly recommend it to everyone who is about to leave for Daocheng.

📍Location: The hotel is about 30 minutes' drive from Daocheng Yading Scenic Area. The whole road is easy to walk. It is near the snow mountain, with an altitude of nearly 3,600 meters (don't worry about hypoxia, the hotel provides oxygen concentrators for free), and it is very quiet at night. 🥘Food: There are relatively few restaurants around. You can order food at the hotel. Dinner is served until 9 pm, so I ordered food in advance on WeChat and informed the arrival time. The recommended beef blanket (should be this name) is a bit like boiled beef covered with a piece of dough. It tastes very good and the portion is large. I also ordered a plateau potato twice-cooked pork. The potato is thin and crispy. My wife likes it very much. However, because it is in Sichuan, the dishes are spicy. Friends who can't eat spicy food should make notes in advance. 🧑🏻💼Service: The staff are polite and kind. The boy who met me is tall and thin. He pays attention to service details and is very considerate. When we checked out the next day, we met a gentleman who looked like the boss. He chatted with us and introduced the history of the hotel. It turned out that the hotel has been around for 20 years. It was demolished and rebuilt in 2018, and it took 4 years to build. 🛏️Guest room: clean, warm and detail-oriented, Toshiba smart toilet, IKEA cups, humidifiers, what I found particularly magical was that the combs provided were not plastic disposables, but small wooden combs, which were so cute that I took them away haha. The water volume was sufficient and the hot water came out quickly. The bedding was clean and hygienic. 💖Highlight: Of course it was the hot springs. After the hell hike in Aden, soaking in the hot springs was so relaxing. There are many pools, including high-temperature and low-temperature areas, and wooden barrel areas that local *******s prefer. There is also an infinity pool. At night, you can watch cars passing by on the road below from time to time. The a**osphere is so good. It is said that there is also a ”wild pool” surrounded by stones under construction. If you have the opportunity to come again, you must experience it. (ps. I am a photography enthusiast. Don’t think I am a shill just because the photos I take are so serious. Hahahahahaha)

The hotel has an elegant environment. The rooms are spacious, bright and comfortable. There is also a bathtub where you can take a bath to relieve the fatigue of climbing. The front desk service is also very kind and polite. They proactively greet you and introduce the situation in the town, making it convenient for us to travel. The breakfast is also rich. We stayed for two nights. The breakfast menu changes every day. This is the first place to go to Daocheng Yading

Xiaoying is not in the town. The location is Rencun. It is a few minutes walk from the gate of the scenic spot. It is slightly higher than the altitude of the town. The advantage is that you can park the car in the courtyard, saving the parking fee of 20 yuan in the scenic parking lot, and you can also borrow trekking poles for free. The hotel proprietress and the front desk sister are very enthusiastic. As soon as I arrived at the store, I filled my parents with an oxygen bag and sucked it up (just suck it, and then go to the front desk to charge it). The local water quality is hard, and we are given filtered purified water. Anyway, we are responsive. The room was spacious and comfortable, the bedding was clean and tidy, the duvet was soft, and the sleep was particularly good when climbing down the mountain. The breakfast in the restaurant is really good. The scrambled eggs in the comments are soft and delicious. The dinner is authentic Sichuan cuisine. The boiled yak beef is very tender. The bottom is a variety of vegetables. It tastes great! I also brought the dried beef jerky, 150 pounds, the choice of five fragrances, the spicy spicy flavor is too heavy, the five fragrances are not only very fragrant but also very chewy, it is indeed a real yak beef jerky. I stayed here for two days, and I still sent a foot bath to soak my feet that night. But the mineral water mentioned in the comments is no longer available. It is estimated that unconscious people can't bear it too much. But if you need the front desk, you will still be given it to you.

During this trip to Western Sichuan, I stayed at the Taiyue Hotel in Daocheng County and had an excellent experience. I must praise it! The warm and friendly staff left a deep first impression on me. They always smiled and made me feel at home. The hotel rooms have floor heating and oxygen, so you don't have to worry about high altitude sickness. The beds are soft and comfortable, allowing you to have a good night's sleep. The facilities in the room are all available, and they are all extremely well maintained, clean and impeccable. The hotel's location is also very advantageous, with convenient transportation around, making it very convenient to eat or play. In short, I am very satisfied with my stay at Taiyue Hotel this time, giving it a five-star rating! ! ! !

The house is decorated in a unique way, but the facilities are old. There is no air conditioning, and the heating is just a portable electric heater. Breakfast is not available until 8:30, and the scenic area starts at 7:30. Pay attention to the time for long-distance trips. Anyway, I stayed for 2 nights and didn’t catch up with the next meal. It’s a pity haha
