Hotele Hot Springs w: Jilin, China

My overall stay exceeded expectations. The hotel boasts an excellent location with convenient access to transportation. The room was spacious, bright, and very clean, and the bedding was incredibly comfortable. The temperature and humidity inside were just right. The facilities were comprehensive; a soak in the hot springs was incredibly relaxing and helped ease the fatigue after hiking. The service was meticulous, thoughtful, and prompt. I had a very pleasant stay throughout my trip and would give it five stars. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Changbai Mountain. The service was very attentive, and they even gave me a small gift.

This is an excellent hotel with incredibly warm and attentive service! Firstly, it's the closest hotel to the old mountain gate, just a 2-minute walk away, so we didn't have to queue at all during the National Day holiday. Secondly, they offer high-speed rail pick-up and drop-off throughout our stay, and can also take us to nearby attractions. Thirdly, the breakfast was amazing! The restaurant staff were very enthusiastic and proactively asked if we needed anything. The ginseng chicken soup, noodles, dumplings, and wontons were all delicious and plentiful, perfect for us southerners. Fourthly, a dedicated butler was provided. Butler Li Chao was incredibly responsible and always ready to help with anything. Fifthly, all the front desk staff were wonderful. They helped with our luggage and reservations, and the service was exceptional. They even upgraded us to a family room when they saw I was traveling with two elderly family members, which I really appreciate. Sixthly, the hot springs were superb, and we could book them anytime. Seventhly, there's a food court right next door, making dining very convenient. The stone pot bibimbap, stir-fried pork with kimchi, and BBQ were all delicious. Eighthly, the hotel provided complimentary access to the Volcanic Stone Forest attraction, river trekking, and ginseng digging, all of which were a lot of fun and suitable for the whole family. My family had a fantastic time, and we'll definitely stay here again on our next trip to Changbai Mountain.

The hotel is right by a forest, so the air is super fresh. It's just a few minutes' drive from the North Gate of Changbai Mountain Scenic Area. They even have a dedicated shuttle service to the scenic area, which is really convenient. Everyone at the hotel, from the owner to the staff, is very welcoming and helpful. Especially the big brother who drove us to the scenic area – he kept reminding us about safety precautions for Changbai Mountain on the way, which was very thoughtful! 👍

The room was spacious, fulfilling my child's wish to sleep on the top bunk. The environment is beautiful, and the aesthetics of all the promotional materials, road signs, and logo designs are top-notch. The complimentary benefits and activities were so numerous we couldn't even use them all. The evening activities were abundant, and the flow of movement was well-planned. Even if we missed a shuttle, they would arrange an alternative vehicle for us. After the last shuttle from the hot springs, you could rent a scooter, and at other times, the shuttle service was very prompt. The shuttle from Songguo Li was always on time as it's the starting point. We only ate at Li Liangui inside the resort; for other meals, we called nearby restaurants that offered free pickup and drop-off, and the food was delicious and affordable. Oh, and when I booked the hotel, rafting wasn't listed as a benefit, but we actually received a complimentary Red Willow Rafting experience. To get to the South Slope, we asked the front desk to arrange a private car, and the driver was reliable and the price fair. Overall, I would recommend Huamei Shengdi to my friends. My only complaint is that there are too few washing machines; we could never get one.

The room was incredibly spacious, which I really appreciated! Especially when the afternoon sun streamed in upon arrival, it felt wonderful. The small bed's mattress was a bit firm but perfectly fine for sleeping. The hot springs were very crowded, so soaking in the room's bathtub was a good alternative. The staff were all very welcoming. The breakfast selection wasn't super extensive, but it depends on your taste; you'll definitely get enough to eat. The only issue was the weak air conditioning in the breakfast area, though the room's AC was excellent. The coffee in the lobby was quite good, worth trying. Parking was convenient, with plenty of space right out front.

This was my first time visiting Changbaishan. While the outdoor temperature was well below freezing, the indoor environment was extremely warm and cozy. The room features plenty of wooden furniture, creating a very welcoming atmosphere. The bed was exceptionally soft, providing me with a fantastic sleeping experience. The floors were smooth and comfortable to walk on barefoot, and I didn't find any dust on surfaces I touched. The bathroom was spotless, with no neglected corners or limescale buildup. I had been in touch with the hotel butler before arriving; they provided detailed information about the opening hours of the facilities and the shuttle options for each attraction we planned to visit. As a result, our itinerary went smoothly without any hassle. The hotel has a great variety of hot spring pools. Since it wasn't crowded during our visit, we didn't have to rub shoulders with other guests and could truly relax and enjoy the hot springs. By the way, compared to five-star hotels in downtown Shanghai, the food here—both in terms of taste and value for money—was actually enjoyable and made you want to sit down and relish a meal. This is quite rare and commendable for a hotel located inside a scenic area.

For our family trip to Changbai Mountain during the National Day holiday, we stayed at the Herik Hotel. Although we didn't make it to the top of Changbai Mountain, the Herik Hotel and the Huamei Resort left a deep impression on us. The entire resort offers an excellent family-friendly experience. In the evenings, there were shows and interactive activities with NPCs. The Herik Hotel where we stayed was also excellent. We were in Building B, and from check-in to check-out, the guest service manager, Wang Bingshu, was incredibly kind, friendly, and demonstrated professional service. We had booked a twin room for one night and a family twin room for another, but we were upgraded directly to a family twin room for both nights. The room was very spacious, with a living room, washing machine, microwave, and refrigerator, making it perfect for families. The sofa bed in the living room could also accommodate two additional people. The bathroom provided toilet sanitizing wipes, which was a thoughtful touch; providing toilet seat covers would make it even better. The hotel breakfast was quite abundant, but you need to leave the hotel and walk about 2 minutes to the Magpie Restaurant. For getting to various attractions, you can wait for the shuttle bus at the hotel entrance, which comes every 15 minutes or so. We would definitely choose to stay here again next time we come to climb the mountain.

This is a great hot spring resort hotel, located next to Meiren Song Park, in a relatively quiet area of Erdaobaihe Town. It's not within walking distance of places like Enduli or Yunding Market, making it more suitable for a relaxing getaway. I heard it's very popular and hard to book during peak season. There are many Korean tour groups staying here, and there are also many Korean signs in the small street behind the hotel. However, I feel the hotel's zoning management is quite good, as there weren't many Koreans on our floor. The hotel stay includes hot spring tickets, but it's limited to one entry, not unlimited access. The hot springs have indoor pools on the first and second floors, and several outdoor pools on the fifth floor. The overall experience is good, but there's no food or drink service inside the hot springs, so it can't compare to bathhouses in Northeast China. The breakfast tastes good, a bit oily, but very flavorful, haha. Additionally, the hotel stay includes one complimentary send-off service, which is quite convenient.

I booked a deluxe king room with a view. Before checking in, I contacted the hotel to request a room with a bathtub. Upon arrival, the front desk graciously upgraded me to a room with a bathtub and a courtyard, which I really appreciated. The hotel service was excellent. The shuttle bus was very convenient and came whenever I called. The hotel environment was also great, with direct access to North Lake Park. I was lucky enough to see black swans walking around on the hotel grounds – that made me so happy! There's also a cute animal park with peacocks, deer, and guinea pigs. It was a wonderful stay, and I'll definitely be back.

Facilities: There's a big lawn and yard, 5 kittens, and the whole B&B is extremely clean, cozy, and romantic. Every night there's a bonfire party, which the kids absolutely loved. I slept really well for several nights here; the soundproofing is excellent, the room has a humidifier, and the temperature is just right. During the day, an auntie would open the windows to air out the room. Service: The front desk staff were incredibly warm and polite. They helped us with our luggage as soon as we arrived and enthusiastically introduced the B&B. When ordering food, there was no upselling; they simply recommended portions based on the number of people to avoid waste. They responded to WeChat messages instantly at any time. In the evenings, they prepared warm milk for the children and brown sugar ginger tea for the adults to ward off the cold. Knowing we had an early morning train, they prepared portable packaged milk, bread, ham sausages, and takeaway hot milk and coffee in advance. The B&B's own business car driver arrived earlier than scheduled and dropped us off at a place where we could avoid the rain, even carrying our luggage up a high set of steps for us in the rain.
