Snow Area Hot Spring Garden Hotel

Hotel was good in Daocheng county. More convenient to airport than Yading town

I had a great stay at Snow Area Hot Spring Garden Hotel! It’s a very good hotel and a perfect base if you’re flying in or out of Yading Airport — they offer a free shuttle service, which is super convenient since the airport is about an hour’s drive away. One of the highlights was the “midnight snack” they provide between 9 PM and midnight: a big bowl of delicious noodles and soup delivered right to your room. Honestly, it felt more like a full meal than a snack — so comforting after a long day! The staff may not be fluent in English, but they are incredibly kind and tried their best to assist us. We felt very welcomed throughout our stay. The room itself was spacious, well-equipped, and had everything a traveler could need. If you’re looking for a comfortable and convenient place to stay before or after your Yading trip, I highly recommend Snow Area Hot Spring Garden Hotel!

The front desk staff were excellent super friendly and couldn’t do enough for us. Thank you

Love the modern hotel with its amenities. Righting the city centre, close to shops and restaurants.Clean, comfortable bed and nice, hot shower.

Snow Garden Hotel is almost a ******* Museum: on almost every wall is something of cultural interest. As is so often the case in China the group of young women on reception duties band together to help the linguistically challenged foreign tourist. The hotel is situated in Jinzhu Town, which is about half way between Daocheng Airport and Yading Scenic Area, helpful for acclimatisation. It is on one of the main streets, with easy access to shops and eateries.

Really nice hotel conveniently located near restaurants and museum. Good place to stay if passing through to Yading, Kaeding, or Chengdu. The hotel has a decent breakfast with a variety of options, all Chinese. The hotsprings were closed when I was there due to the government having a meeting the next day. Why they couldn't have them opened made no sense, but it costs extra to utilize them anyway. The rooms are equipped with oxygen pumps for 100 RMB a day if you need. The elevation is around 4100 meters so if not acclimatized could be an issue. Rooms are modern, very large, and include comfortable beds, large TV with hundreds of channels, for free, but very common in many Chinese hotels. Bathrooms are large with separated showers and toilets, as well as sink and mirror. Overall a very quality room with American standard. Highly recommend for a night. Great hotpot restaurants nearby and other options.
