Mountain View Hotels in Tai'an

This hotel is excellent – great environment, very clean, delicious food, and wonderful service. It's about a 20-minute taxi ride from Tianwai Village at Mount Tai. For convenience when hiking, the front desk even thoughtfully provided free hiking poles and disposable raincoats, which was a really nice touch that made us feel very welcome. Since we were traveling with our dog, they also gave us pet toys upon check-in. The hotel restaurant's food also exceeded our expectations; they don't overcharge for low quality just because it's a hotel, which is a big plus! While there aren't many restaurants or department stores right near the hotel, you can take an electric scooter from the entrance for about 20 minutes to reach Wuyue Plaza, a large shopping mall with plenty of dining and entertainment options. We also visited the Underground Dragon Palace this trip, which was incredibly cool inside. It involves walking through the cave and a boat ride, with one particularly exciting section that the kids loved. It was a comfortable escape from the 35-degree heat outside.

Location: The hotel's location is great, very convenient, close to scenic spots and commercial areas. Plus, the room had an excellent orientation, offering a direct view of Mount Tai. Service: The Atour's service in Mount Tai is truly exceptional; I feel it even surpasses that of Atour S hotels. They even gave us a souvenir when we checked out. Facilities: They have a laundry room and a gym, which is great. The hotel room was also relatively quiet, which is a big plus for light sleepers like us. The breakfast was also very good, and they even had takeaway boxes and coffee cups, which shows amazing attention to detail.

The guesthouse is perfectly situated at the foot of Mount Tai, just a short walk from the Hongmen Visitor Center. Our room was spotless and cozy, the small courtyard was wonderfully quiet, and the overall design was quite tasteful (I regret forgetting to take photos!). The owner is incredibly warm and cheerful, and even kindly offered pick-up and drop-off service near Hongmen. We had planned to climb the mountain the following day, but the weather forecast predicted rain, making us worried about our itinerary. To our relief, the owner checked a cloud map, confidently assured us it wouldn't rain, and even helped us plan the perfect route. True to their word, the next day was beautifully cool and refreshing, resulting in an absolutely fantastic experience. Thanks to contacting the owner in advance for some excellent packing advice, we were well-prepared and didn't have to carry any unnecessary luggage. Overall, a truly wonderful stay!

The room was very clean, and the landlady was very kind. Since I checked in very late at night and had a cold, I felt the landlady took great care of me 🥺. When I mentioned wanting to hang my laundry to dry, she even got me a clothes rack.

The location is great, just a ten-minute drive from Tai'an Station. There's a shopping mall and an old street right next to the hotel with plenty of restaurants and snack options. The staff at the hotel lobby were very friendly and helpful, answering all my questions. The breakfast was rich and varied. I was also able to store my luggage while hiking Mount Tai and pick it up after I was done. Everything was perfect except for one thing: there's always a truck parked in front of the hotel entrance, making it impossible for ride-sharing services with luggage to pull up directly to the door. Guests have to get out nearby and drag their luggage in themselves, which was the case both when I arrived and when I left. It seems like this truck is permanently parked there. I don't understand why the hotel entrance, designed for guests with luggage, isn't kept clear for easy drop-off and pick-up. I'm docking one point for this and hope the hotel can improve it! Otherwise, the hotel is really great and I highly recommend staying here!

The Radisson Blu Tai'an Taishan is in the same complex of the Hampton-Hilton hotel. It is centrally located and is less than 8 minutes ride from the Taian Railway station. Its about 30 to 40 minutes ride from the main entrance to Mt.Tai. There are many street eateries/restaurants across the street from the hotel. The hotel is clean and comfortable. The lobby always has free drinks and fruits available. The staffs are friendly and always ready to help. Washer and dryer are available on the 4th floor for guests to use free of charges. The breakfast is average with many choices. I will stay here again when I visit Mt.Tai in the near future.

The guesthouse is located by the roadside with parking, making it suitable for those driving. The courtyard has beautiful landscaping, perfect for taking photos. The rooms have underfloor heating, so the temperature is just right. The breakfast selection isn't extensive, but the food is quite tasty and enjoyable. The guesthouse is conveniently located near Hongmen and Tianwaicun, easily accessible by foot or bus.

To be honest, my initial reason for booking was to make my Mount Tai trip less rushed. I was also a bit worried that the courtyard layout might be noisy. However, all the guests that night were very quiet, and the guesthouse staff spoke softly. Plus, the guesthouse's location is truly unique, offering a rare sense of peace and comfort. It was lovely! 😌

We stayed in a family room, which was bright and pleasantly furnished. The atmosphere of the room was friendly, and it felt comfortable for our family. Unfortunately, the cleanliness of the bathroom left something to be desired, as we found hair from previous guests in the shower, which was disappointing. Since we visited during the low season, the restaurant was closed, so we couldn’t enjoy any meals on site. Additionally, the hotel is quite difficult to reach without your own car, and communication with the reception was only possible using translation apps, which made things a bit challenging. I believe that at a different time of year, with more services and facilities open, our experience would have been much more positive. Breakfast was offered, but without any choice of drinks. It was acceptable.

Given the limited resources on the mountain, having a room with hot water was truly satisfying. The food we ordered was delivered to our room, and it was delicious and generously portioned. We got a wake-up call to see the sunrise the next day, but unfortunately, there were too many people, and we couldn't keep up with the main group. We found our own spot to watch it, and it was an unforgettable experience. A big thanks to the front desk staff for providing hot water; carrying a hot water bottle made watching the sunrise much less cold.
