"Jianglu's service is exceptional. I had previously read reviews mentioning that while the facilities were good, the service fell short, and I almost missed out on this hidden gem of a hotel. During my visit to Meili Snow Mountain, I stayed at Songtsam, Ji Xia Shan, Jianglu, and Shi Qi. I feel I can confidently comment on the overall service of each. First, regarding butler service: I made a last-minute booking for Jianglu around 5 PM, and immediately after, Jianglu contacted me to add my butler on WeChat. Songtsam added me two days in advance. For Shi Qi, I had to actively call them in the late afternoon, almost 5 PM, the day before check-in to get added. Ji Xia Shan didn't contact me until almost 8 PM the night before check-in, and again, I had to call them to add the butler (Ji Xia Shan explained that they had called me around 3 PM that afternoon but no one answered, and then they asked Trip.com to send me an SMS, but no one followed up to check on the next day's guests – I was quite disappointed by this, as I would have been forgotten if I hadn't called proactively). Aside from these issues, the butler service at all hotels was generally good. Regarding location and snow mountain views: Jianglu is right next to the observation deck, directly facing the Thirteen Peaks – an excellent location. You can enjoy panoramic views of the snow mountain from the balcony, though it's a bit tricky to see while lying down. Ji Xia Shan is more secluded; only the suites seem to offer direct snow mountain views from the room, while other rooms don't. During summer, definitely avoid the Yunling room type. They claim you can see Baima and Meili Snow Mountain, but it's completely obstructed by vegetation. You'd be better off booking a cheaper room type. The floor-to-ceiling windows in Ji Xia Shan's fourth-floor cafe observation deck offer stunning snow mountain views. Shi Qi is across the road from Feilai Temple observation deck, surrounded by bookstores, cultural creative shops, convenience stores, and many other guesthouses. I chose the 'Lianshan' room, which in pictures showed the bed directly facing the snow mountain, but it's not actually direct. The cafe also has floor-to-ceiling windows, offering beautiful snow mountain views. Songtsam's snow mountain rooms truly allow you to see the snow mountain from bed. Songtsam is located on a separate mountain, and it's the only hotel there. So, if your budget is around 3,000 RMB, unless you're staying at Songtsam where you can see the snow mountain from bed, for other hotels, I recommend booking the cheapest room type and just going to the observation deck for the views. Regarding noise: If you prefer peace and quiet, definitely avoid Shi Qi. The Feilai Temple scenic area is very lively, and new hotels are being built nearby, plus the hotel itself is renovating its restaurant. The hotel is also right by the road, with large trucks frequently passing by and honking – the noise is truly terrible. However, if you enjoy a lively atmosphere, the Feilai Temple area is like a small town with many shops, and construction hours are from 9 AM to 6 PM. Jianglu, Ji Xia Shan, and Songtsam, on the other hand, are all very quiet and perfect for a relaxing and healthy getaway. Regarding dining: The food at all these places is decent. Shi Qi's meal prices are significantly cheaper than the others, though their stir-fries are a bit on the oily side. Only Songtsam's breakfast starts at 7 AM, which is great for early risers or those needing to leave early. Songtsam's beef 'er-si' (rice noodles) is delicious; when I asked the chef for a few more pieces of beef, he gave me a whole bowlful. The other hotels' breakfasts all start at 8 AM. Jianglu is unique in that breakfast runs until 1 PM and is unlimited. Regarding afternoon tea: The cakes at Shi Qi's afternoon tea are very good, and they have many drink options. Jianglu's afternoon tea is simpler, with only green tea available. However, their paid coffee bar offers a wide selection of drinks, including hot cocktails, which was a pleasant surprise for me as I can't have cold drinks. Songtsam's afternoon tea is buffet-style. Ji Xia Shan offers complimentary coffee and tea all day, and their afternoon tea features delicious dried beef. Regarding facilities: Jianglu is quite distinctive and very thoughtful. Besides the usual fruits and snacks, Jianglu's rooms also provide facial masks and facial cleansing towels, and even condoms. At the front desk, you can find self-service makeup remover wipes, hair ties, hair clips, motion sickness patches, and more. Regarding ginger tea: For me, ginger tea is excellent for relieving altitude sickness and stomach discomfort. Songtsam's ginger tea is the best, with perfect taste and temperature. Jianglu's is a bit too sweet and lukewarm, Ji Xia Shan's is too spicy, and Shi Qi doesn't offer ginger tea. In summary, I am very satisfied with Jianglu. Coincidentally, I only saw the 'Golden Mountain at Sunrise' during my stay at Jianglu, which felt very fortunate. Jianglu is also great for photos, with a very textured feel, and I was very happy with the travel photoshoot I had there."

"The room is spacious and comfortable, with beautiful views from the window. It's just a few minutes' walk to Feilai Temple. The owner also has a restaurant downstairs, and their hot pot is delicious."

"This is a great hotel, perfectly situated in the front row facing the Meili Snow Mountains, right at the Wunongding viewing platform. It's also a bit more affordable than The Auberge. The owner upgraded us to the top-floor room, which was spacious and newly renovated, just like the pictures. The disposable slippers were thick-soled and very comfortable. The oxygen machine, though a bit noisy, was incredibly effective; we didn't feel any discomfort all night. What's more, the thin quilt provided for summer was just right for the night – finally, no more being too hot with it on and too cold with it off! The rooftop on the fifth floor is perfect for stargazing, and they even provide tripods for cameras and phones, which was a thoughtful touch. Dinner, cooked by the guesthouse chef, could be delivered to our room and was delicious. The breakfast rice noodles were tasty, but the nine-square grid set was just average. The afternoon tea fruit was exceptionally sweet. The owner was very kind and enthusiastic, offering to help with our luggage, and they have an adorable golden retriever. The only minor drawback was that the cotton swabs weren't paper-stemmed and were quite soft. Overall, highly recommended and worth a stay!"

"An absolutely fantastic hotel! The views, service, and afternoon tea were all superb, but the breakfast was unexpectedly rich and varied. It's the perfect spot to watch the 'sun-kissed golden mountains' – at 6:30 AM, I stood on the balcony and saw a huge crowd gathered below the hotel, all waiting. It was such a delightful experience, definitely worth it!"

"This hotel is located in a prime spot, perfect for sightseeing and taking photos. The observation deck is right downstairs, incredibly close. The room decor is warm and stylish, and I particularly loved the color scheme. The bedding was clean and tidy, and the overall experience was seamless with great value for money. I highly recommend it! Especially if you're driving here, arriving amidst a low-lying mist was a unique experience – 'Mist-Covered Village' is truly fitting. The outdoor tables and chairs on the terrace offer direct views of the majestic mountain peaks. Whether you're sipping tea or coffee, chatting, or just watching the snow-capped peaks appear and disappear in the clouds, you can fully enjoy the moment as long as you have the time. The breakfast was plentiful, and the staff were incredibly enthusiastic. They effortlessly carried our luggage up and down the stairs, and I'm especially grateful for their help. A definite thumbs-up! 👍"

"This is definitely the best place to stay at Feilai Temple if you want to see the Meili Snow Mountain! Even though it's an older hotel, everything is well-maintained, and the service is excellent. From the moment I checked in, I received a very warm welcome. The front desk staff and manager even helped upgrade my room. The room was spacious, making it very convenient to view Meili Snow Mountain without having to go to the crowded scenic area. You can even see the 'Golden Sun on the Mountain' (weather permitting) right from the hotel, and stargaze at night – it's truly beautiful. After checking in, you can head to the Feilai Temple observation deck to look around and catch the sunset over the Thirteen Peaks of Meili, which is incredibly cool. There's a snack street right outside the hotel with delicious and affordable food, super convenient! Compared to other overpriced guesthouses, choosing this hotel was absolutely the right decision!"

"Very nice, clean, and high-tech accommodation. The service was top-notch, which included afternoon tea and a Chinese-style breakfast. The view was incredible, but due to hazy weather, we only caught a glimpse of the mountains on our first day. After that, there were snow and haze."

"The room was simple and functional. The toiletries were of good quality, and the temperature and humidity were just right. What truly deserves praise is that every single staff member at the hotel was incredibly kind, friendly, and attentive! A fantastic experience."

"I absolutely love it. I fell in love with it the moment I entered the manor's courtyard. The vases in the corner, the bar decorations, the floor-to-ceiling windows, and the glass-walled restaurant—you can enjoy a cup of ******* milk tea with the scenery at breakfast, and watch the stars while drinking tea at night. Every moment is like being surrounded by beautiful scenery."
