Huangshan Shilin Hotel

A relatively affordable hotel at the summit. The plus is the daily sunrise and sunset tour the hotel organises. The buffet breakfast is quite sumptous too. They even gave a welcome gift. Overall had a good experience at the hotel.

Very good location, good breakfast buffet, stuff on the reception speak english

The Huangshan Shilin Hotel is very convenient for visiting the mountains, and they also organise trips to good viewing spots and some days photography workshops, in spite it was included in our booking there was not workshop that day. The hotel itself is not located at a very high altitude, and the sunset spot where the staff took us was not the best, the sunrise however was amazing (tour leave the hotel at 5:15 end of August) Dinner and breakfast are served buffet-style, with a variety of options, and are good, when we see the cross the poor Sherpas bringing the food up (as well as clean sheets, building materials etc.) we can complain about options. The hotel is a bit old, and there is no air conditioning, though this is probably not an issue in most seasons. The staff speak English and are very helpful, which makes things much easier for international visitors. It’s worth noting that a huge new high-end hotel is currently being built just opposite. Once completed, it will likely bring many more visitors to the area.
