Huayin Hotels with Free Parking.

I stayed at this mountain hotel for one night before climbing Mount Hua the next day, and it turned out to be an excellent choice. This is a family-run hotel, and the owners go above and beyond to make their guests feel welcome. The hotel boss is exceptionally friendly and hospitable, and it is clear that the whole family works hard to ensure guests have an enjoyable stay. They were incredibly helpful in providing information about transportation, hiking routes, and other logistics related to visiting Mount Hua. The hotel attracts both Chinese and international travelers, creating a welcoming atmosphere for everyone. They also sell snacks, drinks, and other essentials at very fair prices, which is convenient for hikers preparing for their trip. The rooms and beds were in excellent condition. The hotel is relatively new, and this is reflected in the clean, modern, and cozy rooms. Everything felt well maintained and comfortable. A major advantage is the free pick-up service from the train station. They also help guests get to the tourist center, making the start of the Mount Hua hike much easier and stress-free. The breakfast was delicious and provided a great source of energy before a long day of hiking. Throughout my entire stay, I felt genuinely welcomed and well taken care of. Overall, I highly recommend this hotel to anyone planning to visit Mount Hua. The outstanding hospitality, comfortable rooms, convenient services, and helpful local advice made my stay a wonderful experience.

The best hotel I stayed in China during this trip (and I stayed in 6 hotels, so I can vouch for this one). Impeccably clean, with a smart and kind worker Jing Lei, who gave us useful tips about the mountain, and was overall extremely helpful. We wish that in every town we met a guy like this. My warm greetings and best recommendations. 4 free transfers included in the booking - super handy! For 1-2 day trip to Huashan it's a great deal. There is a kitchen in the hotel, so before and after hiking you can have a big meal. I recommend scrambled eggs with tomatoes for breakfast.

I stayed here for 2 nights and had a wonderful experience. The room was clean and comfortable, the staff were very friendly, and the food was delicious. The location is a bit far from the city center, but it’s close to the Huashan scenic area, making it perfect if you plan to visit the mountain. If you’re looking for a quiet and peaceful environment, this accommodation is an excellent choice. The place feels homely and welcoming. They provide free shuttle services to the Huashan ticket office and the train station, which is very convenient. The common area on the first floor is also very relaxing. Tip: Call the accommodation in advance to arrange a pick-up from the train station. Didi taxi drivers at the station tried to overcharge me, so the free shuttle is a much better option. There is also a small strip mall near the Huashan ticket office with more shops and restaurants if you need anything.

The room was spotless, comfortable, and spacious, with all the amenities you could ask for. The environment was great, and the service was excellent. The young owner was incredibly warm and attentive. It was also convenient for dining, and the food was delicious. A fantastic choice for a comfortable stay while traveling.

The bedding in the room is very soft and comfortable, the air conditioner is powerful, the shower water heater is easy to use, and the hair dryer is also powerful. Breakfast starts at 6:30, and steamed buns, eggs and fried dough sticks are included in the room rate. The homestay is at the foot of Huashan Mountain, and you can see the mountain from the window. The most important thing is that the owner of the homestay is very enthusiastic. He picks up and drops off tourists from the train station to the homestay. He starts picking up and dropping off tourists to and from Huashan Scenic Area at 7 o'clock in the morning and is available at any time. At 8:30 every night, he will also explain the route of Huashan Mountain to tourists. It feels like home.

Rare to find a room with sauna. Room is big and comfortable. There is a chinese tea set and big bucket of drinking water but drinking water cup is not provided in the room. We are lucky to have first breakfast there and the host served chinese tea after breakfast. Chinese tea taste nicer with second hot water refill thus the host suggested we bring up the cup. This helps and it's much easy to drink water.

Room is spacious and reasonably clean. Bed is comfortable. A family operation, is literally 3-5 mins walk from the Tourist Service Area, where one can purchase the entry ticket and is the entry point to ascend the north peak (including to reach the north peak cable car). If you prefer to hike all the way up instead of cable up, the start of walking trail is slightly more than 30mins walk away but seems like there is a free shuttle bus that would transfer people between this Tourist Service Area and the start of the walk trail. If you come by ”normal” train, you are about 10mins drive away. The husband of the hotel provides a one time service to either pick up or drop off to the train station. I suggest to use it for the latter as you would have hoards of cabbies trying to bring you from station. Currently the area where is the hotel is partially obscured by a major road expansion but don't let the cabby coax you to cancel this booking and move to their recommended hotels in the more touristic ”village centre”. On paper it sounds great but I find most eateries there sell the same choice of food and goods. For food, the wife of the hotel also operates a eatery on the ground floor of the hotel which I find tasty and reasonably priced. Note that this is budget hotel of simple fittings but I personally find of good value for money for a couple of nights after a long day up in the mountain. (I believe parking might be free there too but do check with owner to confirm).

We took the high-speed rail from Jingzhou, Hubei to the hotel where we stayed on the first night in Huashan, preparing to climb Huashan the next morning. The hotel is very close to Yuquanyuan, the starting point of the hiking trip, about a five-minute walk away. The shop owner was very enthusiastic and took the initiative to introduce the precautions for mountain climbing and told me where to have a cheap breakfast.

I would come back again. Just that view on a mountain was awesome, birds chirping in the morning...at least until 7.30 when buses will start to drive. It actually looks better in reality. We came with a car, but it's easy to get there by public transportation too (delivery can enter as well). Twin rooms are more spacious than a tent with a bunk bed, that's what I saw. High ceilings, wood inside ( with a bit strong smell of acrylic paint that eventually disappeared, pretty comfortable beds for western standard, clean floors...a bathroom was the most outdated facility, a more cleaning in a shower area would be welcome. An AC worked normally, a water kettle, toiletries, everything was fine. Chinese breakfast, no coffee or bread, but you could choose other things for yourself. A swimming pool was not working. Great spots for barbecue, lots of shadow, little water streams, spots for kids to play outside. Kind and helpful personal, fast on answer, with basic English. Nature was amazing.

The inn is very close to the Huashan hiking trailhead. The location is very convenient and there are a lot of food nearby. The hotel room is clean and tidy, and the sleep is comfortable. The boss is very enthusiastic and will help us answer any questions we have. I wish the boss a prosperous business
