Eryatou Inn (Zhangjiajie National Forest Park)

Extremely satisfied! The location is superb, just a few minutes' walk from the East Gate. The front desk lady was very friendly and always smiling. The hygiene was good, and the air conditioning was powerful. Highly recommend!

The hotel is a 15-minute walk from the East Gate of Wulingyuan and is surrounded by many restaurants. The owner is very welcoming and even recommended a restaurant that offered an 8.8% discount. It was also convenient to get a taxi to the South Gate in the morning, and the hotel helped us book discounted tickets. The downsides were quite a few mosquitoes – I was bitten awake at night – and the sheets weren't super clean. They do accommodate foreign guests. On the plus side, it's very affordable, about 30% cheaper than chain hotels nearby.

Poor experience: 1. The hotel facilities are quite run-down. The hallways are narrow and dim, which isn't very pleasant. 2. The most uncomfortable part was the unstable hot water when showering; it was hard to regulate the temperature. 3. The interior decor looks good in photos but is quite rough in person. 4. The TV is basically just for show. Good experience: The owner is very nice. You can buy tickets for attractions and shows from her, and she's also helpful with route planning. Overall, it's a bit below average. If you prefer a standardized and professional accommodation experience, I'd recommend choosing a chain hotel like Hanting or Vienna.

It's very comfortable and has a home-like atmosphere. The overall design is elegant and very quiet. Every staff member is kind and polite. The owner is the soul of this B&B; she's excellent at planning itineraries for guests, patiently explains everything, and warmly reminds guests about small details and safety precautions. Even with very limited time, she managed to help us get attraction tickets smoothly and provided a well-reasoned plan – it was fantastic! This trip allowed my husband and me to have a pleasant and satisfying journey. Zhangjiajie Wulingyuan Scenic Area is a must-visit; it's unique and a truly stunning experience. Unfortunately, time was limited, so we plan to revisit. We look forward to staying at Eryatou Fashion B&B again if fate allows.

The hotel is super convenient, just a few minutes' walk from the east gate of Forest Park. The decor is really cozy and comfortable, and the staff are very friendly. The only minor issue was that the hot water in the shower kept fluctuating between hot and cold.
