Shiye Shanju Hostel Reviews

Best choice after 张家界 National Park, convenient pick-up on comfortable car from it. New rooms, very tasty “European” breakfast. Also helped with all my questions. Best of the best. Recommend

Got uprated to a room with view, very close to South Gate national park, they can arrange pick up, friendly hotel, soft and big bed

The hospitality has been incredible, from bringing our luggage to helping us with the natural park expedition as bringing fruit snacks in the middle of the day, everybody was caring and supportive at an extraordinary level. Plus the house and the swimming pool are super super nice. Highly recommended for both families and couples.

We enjoyed our stay here very much! Great staff that are willing to help you to take the best routes through the national parks. They really take the time to communicate even if it is with translation apps. Also allergy issues for food were no problem for them. Highly recommend

Absolutely lovely host. Thank you very much for everything 😊

Great views! Expansive nonsmoking room with lighted self-flushing toilet, giant tub and shower room, and projection TV. Delicious breakfast and nightly treats. Nice hostess gave detailed instructions each day for our hikes. Host drove us to the Park gate 2 miles away. Contemporary Asian furniture creates serenity. The hostel is new so we experienced some glitches: our key kept changing and locking us out and the shower had electrical currents. The electrician was called. Overall, an amazing stay!

We arrived at the hotel late. As soon as we arrived, the owner asked us if we had done a guide for the forest park. We said we didn't have time to do it. The owner immediately told us the route to play and marked a route with a pen. The starting point and the end point were clearly marked. The walking and cable car were also clearly marked. I understood it when I went in the next day. If you are traveling independently without a tour guide, you really don't know how to go. The owner is really considerate. In the room, the large French windows can take in the mountains and ridges, and you can feel the nature very well. There are still people living next to the homestay, which is very lively. There is a swimming pool in the yard. When we went there, there was no water because of the cold weather. The owner said that there would be water in summer. There are also tables in the yard for chatting, and it seems that there is a barbecue grill. In addition, the owner has a very good dog. I have never seen such a good dog. It is so easy to pet. It smells good. The location of the hotel is very close to the South Gate. It takes about 7 minutes by taxi. Once you enter the South Gate, go right to the starting point of the Golden Whip Stream hike. Go left and take an eco-friendly car to the starting point of the cable car in Huangshizhai. PS: The hotel provides disposable bath towels.

Very close to the South Gate, very clean, and the balcony can directly see the mountain peak. The owner is very gentle and tasteful. All the places you can see in the B&B are clean and carefully designed. There will be a guy to help with the luggage, and the owner's sister will help with the guide. We perfectly avoided the queue. The chicken noodle soup for breakfast is also a must. There is also the stupid puppy "Bread" who is very enthusiastic to take your tiredness every time you come back. In short, I hope the young lady can stick to her dream! Starting a business is not easy, you will definitely succeed❤️

Excellent hotel with a beautiful view of the mountains, entrances to park areas are nearby, easy to get there by taxi. The owner of the hotel made a route for us, indicating the main attractions on the map.

The room design is very Nordic, simple and generous. The proprietress is super enthusiastic. It is very comfortable to soak your feet after climbing the mountain. I am not used to using disposable bath towels, so I asked the proprietress for thick ones. The chicken soup powder for breakfast uses local chicken soup, which tastes good. The key is that it is very nice to see Huangshizhai from the balcony.

Very good. I will go there next time. I only focused on going to the scenic spots and didn’t take any photos of the B&B. Let’s take some pictures of the scenery! So satisfied!

The lady boss provided good service. We came to the store to help put the luggage in the room, so we could go sightseeing with peace of mind! Fortunately, the lady boss contacted me the night before, so I didn't have to take detours during the tour. She also thoughtfully drew a map for me to help me with the guide. I had a pleasant tour. I drank local tea at night and felt good. When I checked out, she also thoughtfully sent me local berry tea. I like it! !

A very satisfying homestay experience. The room is clean, the environment is fresh, the food in the store is delicious, and there are local restaurants nearby. It is very close to the South Gate. If you like a quiet environment, you will be very surprised! The owner is very careful and patient, and drew a map route.

The room is clean and sanitary, the bedding is comfortable, it is not on the roadside, the environment is quiet, and it is conducive to sleep. The forest park tour guide provided by the boss is very good, effectively avoiding the crowd, and having fun without worry. After eating the steaming hot breakfast provided, climbing is more energetic. In Zhangjiajie in October, the fragrance of golden osmanthus is refreshing, which makes people feel relaxed.
