I originally planned to stay for just one night before heading to my next destination, but thanks to the excellent service from Selina at the front desk and the hotel's high standards, I decided to extend my stay for several more days.
Selina, who speaks multiple languages, immediately gave the impression of an executive at a top-tier international hotel. Her professional attire, different from other staff, her tall stature, and her gentle smile, were all impeccably elegant and refined, perfectly embodying a sophisticated career woman. Though she looked like a fresh graduate, her profound understanding and mastery of her work suggested years of experience. She thoughtfully and efficiently checked us in late at night, and even offered a complimentary room upgrade and free breakfast.
Although Selina mentioned this Hilton is only a four-star hotel, the next morning's breakfast restaurant—its layout, the design of the dishes, and the professional attire and service of the staff—all felt truly five-star. Even though I'm trying to lose weight and didn't eat much, the exquisite preparation of the food, the authentic coffee, and the high caliber of the other guests all contributed to a delightful experience.
The hotel boasts two pools, one indoor and one outdoor. The outdoor pool is an impressive fifty meters long, with sparkling blue water warmed by the sun. Swimming in it felt like a fetus nurtured by amniotic fluid in the womb—content, secure, and effortlessly joyful. The pool was well-staffed with many young, handsome lifeguards, making parents feel at ease letting their children swim freely.
On the second floor, the laundry room is incredibly practical. The automatic washing machines use the latest technology, automatically dispensing detergent, leaving clothes clean and fresh. Dryers are fully equipped, and since some of my clothes weren't suitable for machine drying this time, I hung them on the private balcony in my room. Unexpectedly, a heavy rainstorm hit later, and I was worried about my clothes getting soaked. To my surprise, Selina sent a message saying the housekeeping attendant had already brought them inside to dry. How thoughtful!
Most importantly, as someone very particular about bedding and sleep environment, I slept soundly for a full eight hours on their bed, without dreams or waking up at night. I woke up the next day feeling completely refreshed and energized.
With top-notch facilities and premium service, if Selina is the pride of Hilton, then Hilton is the benchmark for hotels in Zhangjiajie!
This Hilton, with its first-class hardware and top-tier service, truly deserves to be considered the best hotel in a National 5A scenic area!
