A village that cannot be missed on Shangri-La Xiaohuan. Before, because of that church, you could stay for one night. Now you can stay for one night in Songzan. The small and beautiful winery hotel is equipped with a first-line river view. It is really freehand. The Songzan series has always been doing quite well. The Chinese-style one-day Western-style arrangement is really novel enough, the staff is also quite Nice, quite a hand for children

A truly perfect and enjoyable trip! Thank you to the Songtsam Meili Hotel butlers for their attentive service, care, and attention. The hotel's location is also superb, offering stunning views of the sunrise and sunset over the thirteen peaks of Meili Snow Mountain from the room. The rooftop observation deck is a thoughtful touch, providing convenient phone holders for guests. Thank you! Wishing Songtsam Hotel booming business and abundant wealth!

It was my first time staying at Songtsam. Benzilan is the smallest one. It is in a small village and has its own characteristics. The decoration is of good quality. The room is comfortable and clean, which is in line with the low-key luxury positioning of Songtsam. The barbecue dinner is 350 per person. The ingredients are good and all are fresh local specialties. The portion size and dishes are arranged reasonably. The breakfast is very ordinary, and there is no decent coffee.
In general, the experience is good but the price-performance ratio is average, especially in winter when there is no scenery. The nearby LUXE Benzilan is only half the price. If you really want to experience the Songtsam culture, you might as well spend the remaining money here to live in a more distinctive location.

In the morning, our butler, Renqing Daji, who has spent eight years studying in India, took us on an in-depth tour of Songzanlin Monastery. He explained everything through his own insights – the principles of hearing, contemplation, and cultivation; body, speech, and mind; the Six Paths of Reincarnation; thinking of others before yourself; cultivating humanity; and how awakening can come in times of despair. He also shared the origin of Shangri-La, whose ******* name means 'Sun and Moon in the Heart,' and how this area is the core of the Three Parallel Rivers (Jinsha, Nujiang, and Lancang Rivers). In the early morning, outside the monastery, we could see elderly ******* men and women from the village doing their circumambulations. In the evening, uncles and aunties from the nearby Xiaojiezi Village performed their traditional dances. From afar, on the hotel hillside, we could also see the Manjushri Bodhisattva mantra made by the villagers. The hotel museum showcases ******* artifacts and Thangkas from the 15th to 19th centuries. 

Suggestion: The collection in the Songtsam Museum within the hotel is excellent; I hope they will add professional guided tours.

The public areas are beautiful, with lush greenery everywhere and fresh air. You can see Basong Tso Lake from a distance, and its beauty is beyond words!

The room amenities are decent, probably the best they could do given the limited resources. However, I do think there's room for improvement and upgrades regarding the hardware.

As for the service, it's outstanding. The genuine and warm ******* staff made us feel right at home, far surpassing the service attitude of most hotel staff in first and second-tier cities. The service, for me, is the most commendable aspect of Songtsam.

I want to give a special shout-out to the tall, slender, glasses-wearing receptionist at the Horizon restaurant. Yesterday, after dinner, it was raining heavily, and all the umbrellas in the designated spot outside the restaurant were gone. When I told him, he didn't hesitate, immediately rushed out, and brought back several umbrellas from elsewhere, without even using one himself. I was deeply touched. I wanted to ask for his name when checking out, but unfortunately, he wasn't working today. I hope the hotel recognizes and commends him!
