    The conditions on the mountain are limited, so the room is relatively small, but it is very humanized. Some should also be equipped with down jacket, computer and flashlight... Are very useful. The food added to the dinner set meal is unimaginably cheap and tastes good. I really like this hotel. I highly recommend it.

    The hotel on the mountain is quite good. The room is a little small and it smells like entering the room. It is strongly recommended that people in the hotel not smoke in the room. They can't smell like smoking for several months at a time. There are down jacket, flashlight, sewing bag, three toothbrushes and two toothpaste in the room. We have a meal, dinner is OK, four dishes and a soup, beer next to the supermarket 10 yuan a can, breakfast make do, also can eat. Overall, I think it's OK.

    The hotel is on the mountain. The location is good. The hotel is really general, but it is understandable on the mountain. It is convenient to watch the sunrise near the hotel, but we must seize the favorable position early, because there are few favorable viewing places near the cool platform, which is crowded. It's cool in the morning and evening on the mountain. You can use the down jacket prepared in the hotel room to watch the sunrise

    The location is good. From the back of the mountain, the physical strength is enough to support the hotel. The room is very small, but the mountain is short of resources. It's not bad. Although the space is small, the facilities are complete. I thought there would be little water on the mountain. When I arrived at the room, I found that I didn't need to worry at all. There is an electric kettle in the room, which can boil water conveniently. There are no disposable slippers in the room. It's very sad for people who like cleanliness. The sound of the exhaust fan is very loud at night. If there is an old man, he may be awakened. There is no air conditioning in the room. It should be because the weather on the mountain is cooler, but it looks stuffy when the windows are closed. There is no landscape in the room. The housing pattern is like a patio, and there are still buildings opposite. It was unexpected that it was convenient to watch the sunrise in the morning. I bring everything I eat. What I eat in the mountains is not only expensive, but also not delicious.

    Lion forest is close to qingliangtai dawn Pavilion. The geographical location is very good. Take the cloud Valley cableway up the mountain from the back mountain, go to the hotel, put your backpack and travel around the scenic spots. It is very close to the monkey viewing the sea. There are many places to see the sunrise and the sea of clouds. Worth recommending!

    The feeling of the small guest house is that there are no dental appliances, and the towels are also shabby and damp. Anyway, it's very poor. Geographically speaking, it's better to live in Baiyun Hotel.

    Because there are three people in the same company, they chose the same edge room with four beds, which is different from the imagination. The room is too small, and the small iron bed of 80 cm affects the rest. Still choose double and single rooms.

I saw the sea of clouds when I went up the mountain for the first time. I'm very satisfied with the arrangement of director Xiao Yang and Wenjing. I wish the girls' Inn would open early, The next time a friend comes to live with you, I want to thank Xiao Yang Dao and Wenjing beauty. Our people in Dahuangshan are really wonderful. If a friend comes to Huangshan, he will be the first to recommend you. After 90, I hope you can achieve your wish as soon as possible and continue to work hard

    In addition to the high prices of rooms and meals in the peak tourist season, there is nothing to be picky about. It's 1km from the cable car of Yungu temple and 20 minutes' walk. The hotel is very close to the qingliangtai and monkey sea view. It's an unforgettable scenery.

    The other two girls are college students. The room facilities are good, but the glass in the bathroom is transparent, which is a little embarrassing for strangers. The address is a little bit small. It took a little time. The next day it rained. I didn't expect to see the sunrise. If you have a chance to see it, it will take at least half an hour to get to Guangmingding. Hotel meals should be generally expensive. I ordered stir fried rice for my mother. I don't know how it tastes, but the attitude of the waiter is very good. I'll take care of the reminder. If you go to Huangshan later, you will consider the hotel.

    The hotel rooms are pretty good. After all, the price is there, but the hotels on the top of the mountain are almost the same. They can only say that they are not very satisfied with their service to individual customers; Because we are a group self-help tour, they are very busy at dinner time in the evening. We went to the restaurant to order and asked if there was a place. The man directly said that he asked me to stand next to him and not stand in the way. In fact, he didn't stand in the way. He felt that they were just busy and ignored me. I was very angry at that time. But because everyone was tired and hungry after a day in the mountains, I didn't care. I continued to ask, and then said that there were a lot of people now and there was no place. I said how long it would take. We waited. It was almost half past seven. There was no one at that time. Then we ordered vegetables for dinner, and 14 people ate 955 yuan. The things on the top of the mountain are picked up manually, so the price is acceptable. It is recommended that you stay in the standard room 690 if you live comfortably, and separate beds if you live economically. It seems that there are 130-150 people in one room. Finally, I want to say that Huangshan is really good. It's worth visiting. The sunrise is super beautiful.

    Living in many rooms, the location is quite good, and the conditions of many rooms are poor. Don't think that many rooms are also the standard of four-star hotels. Not every guest changes the bedding, but just sleep on the mountain. It's so cheap. Don't ask too much

The facilities between the four people are still complete. I'm very satisfied with the independent bathroom, electric heating and TV. It's also very close to the monkey viewing the sea. To see the sunrise, you must get up early. The place where monkeys watch the sea is not big, but there are many people

Diario di viaggio
  • Trasformare un'escursione estenuante in un soggiorno rilassante in vetta

    Prima di partire per la scalata del Huangshan, molti amici mi avevano avvertito di non aspettarmi granché dalle sistemazioni in quota. Tuttavia, non appena ho varcato la soglia del Huangshan Shilin Hotel trascinando le gambe stanche, quei pregiudizi sono svaniti all'istante: a oltre 1.600 metri di altitudine ho trovato un livello di comfort e accoglienza persino superiore a quello che si potrebbe avere ai piedi della montagna; la tensione muscolare accumulata durante l'intera giornata di cammino è sembrata svanire non appena ho messo piede all'interno.
    Dopo essere sceso dalla funivia Yungu, una tranquilla passeggiata di venti minuti lungo una scalinata in pietra mi ha condotto all'hotel: niente più fatica nel trasportare i bagagli su sentieri ripidi e accidentati. Avvicinandomi all'ingresso, sono stato accolto dal personale che ha preso in carico il mio zaino da trekking e mi ha offerto una tazza fumante di tisana allo zenzero, accompagnata da un consiglio premuroso: "Qui tira vento, meglio scaldarsi un po' prima". Al momento del check-in, l'addetto alla reception mi ha assegnato con gentilezza una camera ai piani alti con vista sulle montagne e mi ha consegnato una mappa disegnata a mano. Vi erano indicati chiaramente ogni dettaglio: dalle scorciatoie ai punti panoramici per l'alba, dagli orari dei pasti alle postazioni per l'acqua calda; si è rivelata molto più pratica dell'itinerario che avevo studiato in precedenza.
    Entrare in camera è stata una piacevole sorpresa: non c'era traccia di quell'atmosfera angusta e umida tipica degli hotel in quota. Al contrario, gli arredi in legno dalle tonalità calde creavano un ambiente davvero accogliente e invitante. Sebbene la stanza non fosse enorme, ogni dettaglio rispondeva perfettamente alle esigenze di un escursionista: la termocoperta già accesa offriva un calore avvolgente, rilassando all'istante la schiena e la zona lombare irrigidite dalla lunga giornata di scalata. Su una mensola vicino alla finestra ho trovato scaldamani, guanti da trekking e un thermos in omaggio, risparmiandomi così la fatica di trasportare quell'attrezzatura fin lassù. Anche l'insonorizzazione era eccellente: a porta chiusa, il vento impetuoso della montagna restava completamente fuori, garantendo un sonno tranquillo anche nei momenti di maggiore affluenza dell'hotel.
    L'esperienza culinaria è stata la sorpresa più grande. Mi aspettavo pasti essenziali e di fortuna, ma il buffet offriva una varietà di piatti sorprendentemente ampia. Nell'area dedicata ai piatti caldi, la pancetta di maiale brasata era tenera e saporita, abbinata alla perfezione ai germogli di bambù essiccati locali per un gusto davvero ricco. Era presente anche una postazione per la preparazione di noodle espressi, attiva 24 ore su 24: ho potuto così gustare una ciotola fumante di noodle in brodo anche dopo essere rientrato dall'alba ammirata alle prime luci del mattino. Il ristorante è dotato di ampie vetrate a tutta altezza che affacciano sul paesaggio montano; osservare i rami dei pini ondeggiare nella brezza mentre si mangia trasforma il pasto in un'esperienza incantevole. Un dettaglio premuroso è la tisana calda allo zenzero offerta gratuitamente: sorseggiarne una tazza al ritorno da un'escursione in montagna scaccia immediatamente il freddo.
    Il servizio raggiunge un equilibrio perfetto: mai invadente, eppure sempre disponibile esattamente quando serve. Una volta ho dimenticato il mio pesante cappotto uscendo per ammirare il tramonto; al mio ritorno, l'ho trovato piegato con cura e lasciato proprio fuori dalla porta dal personale. Un'altra volta, mentre sistemavo le foto in camera, ho accennato casualmente all'addetta alle pulizie di avere le gambe indolenzite; poco dopo, lei mi ha portato un vasetto di balsamo all'artemisia per un impacco caldo e lenitivo. Quando sono andato ad ammirare l'alba la mattina seguente, l'hotel ha organizzato un accompagnatore: una passeggiata di dieci minuti lungo un sentiero noto ci ha condotti direttamente al punto panoramico migliore presso la Terrazza Qingliang, evitandoci di dover cercare la strada a tentativi tra i sentieri bui della montagna.
    Un tempo pensavo che scalare il Huangshan fosse un'impresa ardua, che richiedesse di trasportare attrezzatura pesante su sentieri impervi e di adattarsi a condizioni spartane per la notte in vetta. Soggiornare presso Huangshan Shilin Hotel ha cambiato la mia prospettiva. Mi ha mostrato come un'eccellente sistemazione in quota protegga dai venti gelidi e dai disagi della cima, permettendo di godersi comodamente le spettacolari albe, i mari di nuvole e i tramonti del Huangshan senza alcuna difficoltà. La prossima volta che visiterò il Huangshan, questo sarà sicuramente il primo posto che prenoterò.

  • Cogliere tutta la magia dei tramonti e delle albe di Huangshan

    Prima di arrivare a Huangshan, gli amici mi avevano ripetuto spesso che, se volevo godermi il paesaggio montano in tutta comodità, dovevo assolutamente soggiornare presso lo Huangshan Shilin Hotel, situato sulla vetta. Ho dedicato un'intera giornata a questa parte del viaggio, pernottando in quota per poter ammirare sia il tramonto che l'alba. Accompagnata dalla brezza che trasportava il profumo dei pini di Huangshan, l'esperienza è stata assolutamente perfetta.
    Sono arrivata con la funivia di Yungu poco dopo le 14:00 e ho percorso a piedi, in una ventina di minuti, la scalinata in pietra che conduce allo Shilin Hotel. Appena varcata la soglia, un membro dello staff si è fatto avanti per prendere i miei bastoncini da trekking e mi ha offerto con un sorriso una tazza di tè caldo allo zenzero, dicendo: "Qui tira vento, si scaldi un po' prima". Durante il check-in, mi hanno gentilmente informata che avrei potuto ammirare il tramonto dalla vicina piattaforma panoramica alle 17:30 e unirmi a un gruppo guidato diretto alla Terrazza Qingliang per l'alba, prevista per le 5:30 del mattino seguente. Mi hanno persino dato consigli sulle temperature in quota e sull'abbigliamento pesante necessario, risparmiandomi la fatica di dover cercare tutte queste informazioni autonomamente.
    Sono rimasta subito colpita non appena ho aperto la porta della mia camera: l'arredamento in legno naturale trasmetteva un senso di calore e accoglienza, ben lontano dall'atmosfera spartana che ci si potrebbe aspettare da un hotel in vetta. La finestra incorniciava perfettamente il paesaggio montano; aprendo le tende si scorgeva in lontananza la Vetta Shixin, con i rami dei pini che si protendevano verso il vetro, ondeggiando dolcemente nella brezza. Sebbene la camera non fosse enorme, ogni dettaglio rivelava grande cura: lo scaldaletto era stato acceso in anticipo, offrendo una piacevole sensazione di calore al tatto, mentre vicino alla finestra erano stati lasciati guanti da trekking e scaldamani in omaggio: un pensiero premuroso per evitare che le mani si congelassero durante l'osservazione dell'alba al mattino presto.
    Alle 17:00, seguendo le indicazioni dell'hotel, mi sono diretta alla vicina piattaforma panoramica della Vetta del Leone; non c'è stato bisogno di farsi largo tra la folla per trovare posto. Al calar del sole, un bagliore rosso-arancio ha avvolto gli inconfondibili pini e le formazioni rocciose, inondando l'intera Huangshan di una calda luce dorata. Mentre mi trovavo sulla terrazza panoramica, accarezzato dalla brezza montana, sentivo il respiro farsi più lento e il mio spirito trovare pace in quel momento. Al buffet dell'hotel, la varietà dei piatti ha superato di gran lunga le mie aspettative: un ricco assortimento di portate calde, zuppe di noodles e specialità locali della cultura Hui mi attendeva. Dopo un'intera giornata di escursioni, stringere tra le mani una ciotola fumante di pancetta di maiale brasata sembrava sciogliere ogni tensione muscolare.
    Alle 5:30 del mattino seguente, ho seguito il personale dell'hotel fino al punto migliore per ammirare l'alba — la Terrazza Qingliang — situato a soli dieci minuti di cammino; questo mi ha risparmiato la fatica di dover percorrere sentieri di montagna sconosciuti nell'oscurità. Mentre osservavo il sole emergere lentamente dal mare di nuvole e la luce dorata inondare le onde di nebbia, udivo i sospiri di meraviglia delle persone intorno a me. Avvolto in un pesante piumino fornito dall'hotel e con in mano una tazza di latte di soia caldo preso al ristorante, sentivo un calore confortante diffondersi fino alla punta delle dita. Dopo l'alba, sono rientrato in hotel giusto in tempo per gustare dei mini-wonton freschi preparati secondo la tradizione di Huangshan; l'aroma invitante si mescolava al vapore e quel primo boccone mi ha regalato quella sensazione di felicità profonda e appagante che si prova solo in vetta.
    Un tempo pensavo che soggiornare in un hotel in cima alla montagna fosse solo un compromesso necessario per vedere l'alba, ma la mia permanenza al Huangshan Shilin Hotel mi ha fatto capire che, al contrario, quel luogo ti protegge da tutte le difficoltà della vita in quota. Non c'era bisogno di trascinare attrezzature pesanti lungo i pendii o di cercare a tentoni il sentiero nel buio gelido; potevo invece godermi comodamente i tramonti, i mari di nuvole e le albe più spettacolari di Huangshan. Tornerò sicuramente qui la prossima volta che visiterò Huangshan.
