Luanping Chaoxing Farmhouse (Jinshanling Great Wall Branch)

Love their home cooked dishes! We rather go back to hotel for meal after Gubei water town. The couple bosses were so sweet to let us indicate spiciness and accommodate our minor diet restriction. They dun have noodles but they used alternative ingredients to make some gourd dish that tasted close to noodles. The rooms were big, in SG standard, one bed was queen size and the other was super single. Their bathroom was newly renovated and love their heater installed at shower cubicle, making it more comfortable to shower in cold weather. The couple bosses provided great tips on local transport to help us get to/fro Jinshanling for sunset and sunrise opportunities. They are situated around 5min drive from Jinshanling ticketing. Love the room doorstep views overlooking the geese and house dog. We will choose this hotel next time!

Such a great little Homestay close to the main ticket office for the Great Wall :) they were super helpful - helped organise a taxi for me to and from the wall (5 minutes in the car) for sunrise and also arranged a taxi to drive me all the way back to Beijing for 500CNY! Super clean and simple rooms, plus the home cooked food was good too! The husband and wife who own it are lovely! Would come back and recommend:)

We took a last minute trip out here to get to the wall early in the morning and could not have been a better choice! Very kind and helpful staff, easy access to the wall either by walk or car, and a comfortable room.

EVERYTHING WAS PERFECT! The owner and his family are very welcoming and always pleased to help. He came to pick us up from the train station and helped us to get some food and other necessities for the following day. The room is fabulous! Very modern, spacious and clean, and the shower is an absolute dream. It’s only a couple of km from the main entrance of the Jinshanling Great Wall section. His wife is an excellent cook so you can enjoy a delicious meal before or after your trek on the Wall. He also speaks very good English so communication is easy and fun! I highly recommend 🥰

Hotel man is great, he speaks very good English and is super friendly and kind. Transportation by car was arranged to and from the train station as well as for heading up the hill at 6am to the Jinshanling great wall park entrance to catch sunrise from the Great Wall at the top. It is possible to just walk up to the gate instead, it just takes longer to walk the 2 km to the ticket checking gate, and there is then still some maybe 15 mins of walking uphill before getting to the top. Photos show the view from my room, the menu of the hotel restaurant, dinner (尖椒豆片炒肉), and breakfast (fried rice and soup).

This was such a great find! Chao speaks great English and was super helpful organising a van from Beijing for us and taxis to the wall entrance. His wife is an excellent chef - the food was delicious! The house/apartment was very very comfortable and really well appointed. Highly, highly recommended if you’re looking to explore this part of the wall - which is very beautiful and very quiet.

Amazing host, he took me to the shop before my 30 mile ultra marathon over the Great Wall and helped me with all the information I needed to gain entry to the Wall 😊
