Danba Hotels with Bars

This B&B was my favorite during my trip to western Sichuan. Every detail was meticulously appointed, the bedding was comfortable, and the breakfast and dinner were fantastic! The owner and his family were not only warm and welcoming, but also seasoned travelers, offering us first-time visitors to western Sichuan plenty of excellent advice. The owner and his wife especially enjoyed drinking tea and reading, which perfectly matched the B&B's name!

My second visit to Huaye truly felt like home. Although Jiaju ******* Village boasts a reputation as one of the most beautiful villages, it was only after living in Huaye that I truly developed a deep and lasting connection with it. I love so many things here: the two playful golden retrievers, Zhaocai Jinbao (though I can't really handle Zhaocai's enthusiasm; Jinbao is more thoughtful, haha), the adorable black cat Luna, the socially anxious Miaomiao, the like-minded Xiaohua and Xiaoye, and the ever-girly Auntie, the incredibly cool bar converted from a cowshed (I'd call it a must-see in Jiaju), the Jiaju sunshine, and sipping Xiaoye's hand-poured coffee while admiring the breathtaking mountains... Perhaps everyone encounters breathtaking scenery and luxurious experiences during their travels, but only a few truly refresh the filter in their minds and build up the energy for the next destination. I look forward to seeing you again in beautiful autumn.

Except for the winding road up the mountain, everything else was very satisfactory. There was a pot shop in the evening, the boss was beautiful and straightforward. The scenery in the early morning was beautiful.

From Jinchuan to Danba, I chose Jiarong Academy B&B. The hotel is located on the mountain, which is quite convenient for self-driving people. The parking lot is very convenient at the door. The front desk lady will greet you after you park. The service is good. The room view is very good, and you can see the snow-capped mountains in the distance. The room area is not large. It has its own restaurant. We did not go out to find it, but solved it directly in their restaurant. The breakfast is basically OK for those who are not demanding. The mountain air is fresh in the morning, which makes people feel comfortable.

The B&B is located halfway up the mountain, so there are indeed a lot of winding roads and it's difficult to pass oncoming cars. However, it's great that we could drive right up to the entrance without having to walk. As soon as we got out of the car, the friendly guy at the front desk greeted us enthusiastically and helped with our luggage. We arrived quite late, but the staff still prepared hot milk and some snacks for us. The next day, we slept in naturally. When we woke up, the morning mist was incredibly beautiful. It was the most restful night's sleep I'd had in days in a high-altitude area. On the second day, one of the hotel staff members took us on a tour of the village and even picked plums and apples for us. An old lady we passed by warmly greeted us and invited us in for tea. I really love this kind of simple, human-touch local experience. I've already made plans with my friends to come back when the pear blossoms bloom in spring!

The butler upgraded us to a loft room with a bathtub. It's a Tibetan-style building, and the interior decor also has a ******* flair. You can step directly from the second floor onto a huge outdoor terrace to enjoy the views. The room was very comfortable, the service was excellent, and the owner was incredibly welcoming. The scenery of the ******* village is beautiful, and the food was delicious. This was the best place to stay during our entire trip through Western Sichuan with no altitude sickness. Highly recommended!

The hotel environment is excellent! The parking lot is large, convenient for travelers with cars. Rooms offer mountain views, as does the restaurant, and there's also an open-air lounge area with views of the snow-capped mountains. The decor is very tasteful, the bedding is very comfortable, the bathroom has a separate shower and toilet, and it's very clean. There's also an adorable little white cat.

I chose Banshan Villa because the word ”Banshan” touched my hometown sentiment. It was pure fate. We arrived early that day, before 5pm. It is located halfway up the mountain in the village. We can go up to the fourth and fifth viewing platforms. The homestay faces the sacred mountain and has a large yard. I chatted with the landlord in the cool air, as if I had returned to my childhood. My hometown really feels like home. OK, let me formally review the particularly good places: the bedding is comfortable, the living room is comfortable, the yard is comfortable, the facilities are complete (there are charging piles and water pipes, which can be charged and washed), the hot water is comfortable (the water pressure and water volume are particularly high), the dog Hanako Smart and well-behaved...is that enough? No! Most importantly, the boss is very easy-going and down-to-earth. He would say: Just treat this as your home! I haven't experienced other ******* homestays, but after staying at Banshan Villa, I will definitely choose it next time!

It is inevitable that there will be accidents during the journey, but the way the homestay responds is reassuring. Our self-driving tires are a bit of gas. After asking the boss for help, he immediately found the gas pump to help inflate, and carefully checked the tire pressure. The homestay is located within the Jiaju Tibetan Village scenic spot, the scenery is excellent, and it is very convenient to enter and exit. Friends in the same group had a little altitude sickness, and the clerk immediately provided Rhodiola tea and oxygen bottles. The most moving thing was that after checking out, I found that the charger was in the room. After contacting them, the clerk immediately said that he could help mail it home. This unprejudiced and responsible attitude provides a solid backing for our journey.

【Five-star highly recommend, a perfect home-away-from-home stay!】✨ This stay truly exceeded all my expectations! The front desk lady was super efficient with check-in, had the warmest smile, and even proactively upgraded my room type! The room was even more spacious than I imagined, with a floor-to-ceiling window offering a stunning river view, and essential oil bath salts ready by the bathtub – the attention to detail was incredible! The bedding was soft and skin-friendly, letting me sleep soundly until I woke up naturally. The breakfast had a rich variety, and the freshly prepared Eggs Benedict really hit the spot! At check-out, they even gave me custom tea bags as a souvenir. From the welcome tea upon arrival to the waving goodbye when I left, every single detail showed how thoughtful they were. I've already recommended it to my best friend, and I'll definitely be back for my next trip! 🏨💕
