Jinting Chain. Southern Hotel (Zhanggongqiao Food Street Leshan Giant Buddha Branch)

Excellent location in the heart of the lively Shizhong district. Very well served by public transport. Easy and direct access to and from the train station. The Big Buddha site is a 40-minute walk away. Considering the price paid for the room and the three included meals, the overall value for money is more than worthwhile. The reception staff were very welcoming. My room on the 6th floor was spacious (large enough to have a bathtub!), clean, quite bright, with comfortable bedding. My room overlooked the central roundabout, yet the area was quiet. The bathroom was a good size and clean. A hairdryer and electric kettle were available in the room. Bottled water was provided daily. The in-room Wi-Fi was very good. There was a huge projection screen, but I didn't use it. The electrical outlets require an adapter to plug in European devices. The central air conditioning was efficient. A mirror in the room wluld have been a welcome addition but was missing, as a dedicated luggage storage area, like is common in many hotels in China, was needed to avoid having to leave luggage on the open floor for the entire stay. The breakfast restaurant is the hotel's biggest drawback. Located on the 8th floor, it offers a buffet breakfast from 7:00 to 9:00 AM, lunch from 11:30 AM to 1:00 PM, and dinner from 5:30 to 7:00 PM. This place isn't a restaurant, but at best a market stall. It's noisy, too small, dirty, and in a state of disrepair. The quality of the buffet is mediocre. There are no drinks at breakfast except soy milk. This was my biggest disappointment, as I like to make meals a moment of peace and indulgence. The common areas are not cleaned. The carpet in the hallway outside my room wasn't brushed once in four days. It was filthy. The ashtrays in the hallways filled up with trash over the course of my four-day stay and were never emptied. The laundry area was completely uninviting. In short, the hotel felt very average and didn't match the photos plastered everywhere, making it my most disappointing accommodation experience during my month in China.

This hotel is absolutely great. The price, the location and the room. I work in tourism industry so the room is absolute 3 star. And the price is very much reasonable. Only 2km to Le Shan Giant buddha, making the location is great. Food is around. They upgraded my room to bigger room and food is 3 times per day. I saw some complain abt the food in trip.com and I find it is ridiculous. If you want better food, go and pay urself. They offer food for free 3 meals per day for everyone, so dont expect it to be 5 star when you not pay anything. Normally, with the price I pay, this is far expected. Good time, chill, calm with the buddha. Amitofo. 5 star and definitely gonna be back

It’s really cheap for the price with breakfast included , but need to think twice before booking this , the room is big and lot of space but has smelly of old wooden wall du to humid and when turn on the AC the smell even comes throughout the AC as well , if on low budget trip can go for this ,
