Mountain View Hotels in Daocheng County

【Service】I have to commend the front desk staff! The service was incredibly thoughtful. They proactively added me on WeChat to confirm my arrival time, and had warm Rhodiola tea ready as soon as I walked in. Any messages sent via WeChat were answered promptly! We were suffering from altitude sickness and a bit of a cold after coming down from the mountain, and they even prepared ginger tea for us. So considerate! 【Hardware & Hygiene】The room was quite spacious, clean, and hygienic. They even provided disposable bath towels and hand towels. The room was equipped with smart appliances, with Xiao Ai (an AI assistant) controlling the lights. The hotel also has an underground parking lot, which was incredibly convenient on a rainy day.

Staying overnight in Yading Village is a must. After hiking to the Milk Sea and getting exhausted, staying in the village lets you rest up early. Zhixiashan has been open for a year, so the facilities are relatively new. It's very pleasant to head out in the morning for a walk along the scenic boardwalk. You can walk up to the Xue Bookstore in front of the door, grab a cup of coffee, sit in the small square outside (as shown in picture 2), and look out at the distant mountains.

This hotel truly excels in all four aspects: location, amenities, views, and service. 1. **Location**: Situated at Yading Village Station 3, it's perfect for those planning a two-day trip. You won't have to endure the 40-minute one-way shuttle ride back and forth. The hotel is only a 12-minute drive from the shuttle bus terminal and is right at the entrance of Station 3. You don't need to walk an extra step. You can even wait for the shuttle while taking photos on a swing chair in the lobby or the small courtyard, as you can see the snow-capped mountains from anywhere in the hotel (see photo 1, taken this morning). 2. **Amenities**: They provide a Dyson hairdryer, 'Black Sister' toothpaste, a large jar of freshly cut kumquat and lemon fruit tea, and four separate fruit platters. Each room comes with a small wooden table, a vintage tea set, and two packets of tea. There's also a private balcony where you can step out. You can brew tea and take your wooden tray tea set out to take pictures. 3. **Oxygen Supply**: Oxygen is supplied 24 hours a day, unlike many hotels that only offer it from 7 PM to 7 AM. It's a diffused oxygen supply with 24% oxygen concentration. Hotels in Litang typically only reach 21%. If you have an oxygen bag, you can even refill it in your room as the interface is compatible. 4. **Service**: Around 8 PM, I felt cold and asked the front desk to check if the air conditioning was working correctly. Without a word, the front desk brought up a massive heater that could reach a maximum temperature of 35 degrees Celsius. You'll sleep soundly and won't get cold, and it's completely silent. 5. **Luggage Service**: If you're staying at the hotel with luggage and find it inconvenient to carry to the attractions the next day, you can store it at the front desk. You also won't have to worry about wasting time and queuing for another shuttle to pick up your luggage at the station on your return journey. A front desk staff member will wait for you at the station with your luggage after your return bus departs. You don't even need to get off; they'll load your luggage directly onto the shuttle bus. Nice! 6. **Convenience Store**: If you're short on food, there's a small supermarket about 50 meters from the hotel. A bowl of braised beef noodles costs only 7 yuan – grab it! This is inside a scenic area; at the visitor center, it would start at 20 yuan.

This hotel is highly recommended. Located within the Daocheng Yading Scenic Area, it's just a few minutes' walk from the visitor center. It has its own large parking lot in front, convenient for those traveling by car. The rooms are spacious, bright, and clean, and even have underfloor heating. They also provide oxygen concentrators to help with altitude sickness. Special praise goes to the hotel owner, who is not only beautiful but also incredibly gentle and kind. She is extremely considerate of guests, treating them like family and valued guests. She even personally explains the scenic routes and highlights to guests; this heartwarming service deserves high praise. I would definitely stay here again next time.

[”A hidden gem of a hotel we found while driving on Highway 318! It has its own parking lot, so no worries about parking. The room was clean and dry, and the hot water was reliable. The staff were friendly. It's perfect for a long road trip stopover to relieve fatigue. Highly recommend for travelers passing through.”,”A top choice for a stopover on the Sichuan-Tibet line, with a convenient location. The room was clean and odor-free, and the sleeping environment was quiet. There's a common lounge area; it would be even better if oxygen supply was available. An excellent choice for a rest stop while on the road.”,”My first choice for an overnight stop during a long road trip. Plenty of parking space and wide access roads. The room's hygiene was excellent, the mattress was comfortable, and a hot shower helped recover energy. There are many restaurants nearby, making it convenient for getting around.”]

The location of the HomeStay is excellent. It is located at the end of the street of a quieter corner away from the busy street. Just a short walk you will have access to many eateries and shops. The interior decoration is uniquely furnished with ******* style design transporting us into a real local ******* family home without the need to be physically in Tibet. The Owner of the HomeStay is very friendly and helpful. He introduced us to ******* culture and explained the significance of Animals painting on the wall and how it translates into daily life. Animals consisted of Elephant, Monkey, Rabbit and Bird. He also made us their fragrance 酥油茶 suyou cha which is good to counter Altitude sickness 高反。 Cat is also a sacred animal in ******* culture. The price of the HomeStay is very reasonable with the excellent location and service. It has free laundry service, however you need to hang them dry in an outdoor clothes line. It will dry quickly as the weather is very dry/sunny. I would highly recommend this HomeStay to everyone who likes to go to Daocheng Yading. Lastly, I would like to thank the Owner and his Sister for making our stay an enjoyable one. Best wishes to Owner and his Sister with excellent business ahead.

Very very tired hotel. Desperately needs renovation  Even if we were the only guests, they wouldn’t let us have a late check out But breakfast is nice!

It was a great place for a Westerner to stay. The staff were very helpful. The location was great and there were plenty of food and drink options.Very close by

We booked this place mainly because of the oxygen setup, and it turned out to be the smartest call of the trip. We drove in from Daocheng in the afternoon, and by evening my girlfriend was already feeling the altitude. Turned on the oxygen in the room, cracked the humidifier, and within half an hour she was fine. The first night in Yading is usually the rough one — we both slept straight through. Beds are genuinely comfortable, the kind you sink into after a long day. Breakfast was bigger than we expected, plenty of hot options. The front desk also booked a car to the airport for us at 6am without any fuss. Five minutes' walk to the visitor center, so we were at the gate before the tour groups. For the price, hard to beat.

The owner is very welcoming. If you're going to Daocheng, it's a good idea to contact them in advance. You can drop off your luggage at stop #1, and someone will transport it to the hotel. When you're heading back, it's just about a 100m walk from stop #2. The room has a rustic, wood-themed decor and comes with floor heating, plus free oxygen supply. The bathroom has a separate wet and dry area, and the shower has good water pressure with hot water. The room layout is comfortable, and the decor is quite new. When you open the curtains, you get a fantastic view of the snow-capped mountains – truly a top-notch experience in such a setting. Since there aren't many restaurants nearby, we just ordered food directly from the hotel, and guests get a 12% discount. The ingredients were very fresh, but it's tough to keep food piping hot in high-altitude areas, so there was a bit of a wait for our order, and it cooled down pretty quickly. Reheating it also took some time. 🥲
