Jinding Xinxin Hotel

Yesterday, I went to Mount Emei and stayed at Jinding Xinxin Hotel because I wanted to catch the sunrise. I didn't expect it to be so cold on the mountain when it was still short-sleeve weather at the base. I quickly made my way to the hotel. I had booked a corridor room, but the lovely concierge upgraded me to a mountain view room for free. Seeing I was a bit affected by the altitude, she took my measurements and confirmed my oxygen levels were indeed a bit low. She then brought me warm saline tea and a thick cotton coat. She also reminded me to open the window, rest, and gave me some tips for dealing with altitude sickness. It was truly heartwarming. The hotel's food was delicious, and the chef even delivered it to my room. The hotel's location is excellent, about a 10-minute walk to Jinding on the left and Funicular No. 1 on the right. Very convenient. Although the room wasn't huge, which is understandable for a mountaintop hotel, it was very clean and tidy. In the afternoon, the lobby offered free scripture copying and tea brewing. The tea was 'Old Eagle Tea,' filled with the refreshing scent of the mountain forest. All in all, apart from a bit of altitude sickness, everything else was wonderful. If you're not super fit but still want to see the sunrise, staying at Xinxin Hotel is a great choice. The concierge was attentive and caring, and all the staff were enthusiastic and helpful. The hotel thoughtfully provides reminders for sunrise and sunset times, allowing you to leisurely enjoy the mountain views, visit the temple, and then return for breakfast. The breakfast was also very generous.

The hotel's location is super convenient, just a few minutes from Golden Summit, which is a big plus. However, the room facilities are dated and there's a sewage smell, which is a definite минус. On the bright side, the breakfast was great and the service was excellent.

The hotel offers beautiful sunset views and is the closest accommodation to the Golden Summit viewpoint. The staff were attentive and friendly, and the overall environment was great. 5-star review!

Huge thanks to housekeeper Xiao Qing for their responsible, meticulous, and patient help, which truly enhanced my mountain top trip! Grateful!

Extremely satisfied! This was the most thoughtful stay I've ever had at a scenic spot. My shoes got wet, and they immediately provided a dryer. There was also a fruit platter and snacks. Even better, they upgraded my room! They explained how to use all the room's amenities. Highly, highly recommend!

The room was clean, and the service was attentive. We didn't have to stay up late to watch the sunrise or sunset, which was great for traveling with kids. The view from the room's window was beautiful, and the absolute best part was seeing the distant snow-capped mountains on the second morning!

Traveling with my parents, the room was a bit small, but that's understandable for a mountaintop hotel. They provided complimentary fruit and snacks, and there was an oxygen concentrator. It's also not far from the mountaintop attractions. However, the duvet was too thick; even with the window open, it felt stuffy at night, so I didn't sleep well at all.

I was truly delighted with my stay. It's incredibly rare to find such clean and modern accommodation at such a high altitude as Jinding. Having traveled to many high-altitude regions, I initially had no expectations, but the service was incredibly thoughtful, the room was spotless, and the views were absolutely stunning. I highly recommend it. You can even watch the sunset from your room; I drifted off to sleep while watching it. 🥰

This hotel is super convenient, just a 5-minute walk to the cable car and 5-10 minutes to Jinding, making it perfect for catching the sunset and sunrise without having to rush. The room is small but newly renovated and very clean. Just be aware of potential altitude sickness, as there's an oxygen machine in the room. Right outside, up a few steps and to the left, you'll find KFC, along with Hushaung Ayi and Cha Baidao, which is really handy.
