Zhangjiajie State Guest Hotel — Hotel in Zhangjiajie

Known as Zhangjiajie State Guest Hotel in English on their website and business cards, this is an affordable place to stay. It has bathtubs!!! If you hike a lot at the park, the tub revives the muscles for another great day of hiking. It's also a great way to warm up in the chilly temps of the hotel (winter). As is the custom, the hotel has open-air, no matter how cold the outside - as they blend and that temperature becomes the hallway/lobby/restaurant temp. Wear full gear (hat, gloves, etc.) for the restaurant in winter. One of the doormen spoke some English (and was tremendously helpful), but other than that, learn more Mandarin or let gestures and pictures, etc., help out. Room was decent, kept clean, maid left information on forecast and temperatures, which I appreciated, as language didn't matter. The location is a short distance to board a bus to the national park. To the right about 10 minutes takes you to an official entrance where the bus takes you to one location, included in park price. Go left to the corner, then left a block and a half and you're at the city bus stop (on left) which takes you to the main entrance. Small restaurants nearby for evening (or mid-day) meal. It was a good value...

I traveled by tour this time and they has picked this hotel for me. First impression was the hotel is surprisingly huge, I heard the tour guide told us this hotel has 800 rooms. |The hall is big but empty, all I can see is 2 receptions, 2 cleaning staffs an that’s it. We had the room in Block C (C326). We took the nearest elevator but it was for Block A. There was just only a little sign point where Block B and C located, no map, no staffs to help and we had to find it our own.|The room’s lights was bright and the room is big. It has a fridge but not working, aircon is hard to control but the TV connection was good. The toilet and washing room were clean too. |I will give 7 points for this breakfast at this hotel, not to good, not too bad. They maked it look like a buffet but actually it just has about 20 types of food (included 5 kinds of buns) and it the same during the time we stayed. |The hotel location is not so bad. It nears the gate to got into Tianzi Shan (avatar mountains), nears the walking street 溪布街 (5min by cab) and nears the beautiful bridge but we didn’t have...
