5-Star Hotels in Jilin, China

An older, upscale hotel with facilities and a layout that were top-notch in its time. While the hotel may be older, the service is still excellent! I really liked the butler online service; it's a much better experience than a budget hotel. Our family of three had a very spacious and comfortable stay! It's dry in Changbai Mountain this season, and they thoughtfully provided plenty of water! We really needed it! I haven't drunk this much water in a long time!

This is an excellent hotel with incredibly warm and attentive service! Firstly, it's the closest hotel to the old mountain gate, just a 2-minute walk away, so we didn't have to queue at all during the National Day holiday. Secondly, they offer high-speed rail pick-up and drop-off throughout our stay, and can also take us to nearby attractions. Thirdly, the breakfast was amazing! The restaurant staff were very enthusiastic and proactively asked if we needed anything. The ginseng chicken soup, noodles, dumplings, and wontons were all delicious and plentiful, perfect for us southerners. Fourthly, a dedicated butler was provided. Butler Li Chao was incredibly responsible and always ready to help with anything. Fifthly, all the front desk staff were wonderful. They helped with our luggage and reservations, and the service was exceptional. They even upgraded us to a family room when they saw I was traveling with two elderly family members, which I really appreciate. Sixthly, the hot springs were superb, and we could book them anytime. Seventhly, there's a food court right next door, making dining very convenient. The stone pot bibimbap, stir-fried pork with kimchi, and BBQ were all delicious. Eighthly, the hotel provided complimentary access to the Volcanic Stone Forest attraction, river trekking, and ginseng digging, all of which were a lot of fun and suitable for the whole family. My family had a fantastic time, and we'll definitely stay here again on our next trip to Changbai Mountain.

This time, I was traveling with friends, and after carefully reading reviews, I chose Sheraton. It lived up to its reputation for quality. To our pleasant surprise, all three rooms were upgraded! Our butler, Xiao Ying, demonstrated exceptional service from the moment we checked in at the front desk. She answered all our questions, and when there was a noise issue with the air conditioning in one room, she promptly arranged a room change. We're very grateful! The breakfast was extensive, and everyone loved the pickled vegetable and pork buns…

This is a hot spring hotel with both indoor and outdoor pools (I highly recommend the outdoor ones, the air in Changbai Mountain is truly amazing). The room facilities are a bit retro, but the location is excellent, right across from Meiren Song Park (I strongly recommend this park). Taxis to various attractions are almost always just the starting fare. The staff are great, especially the lady at the entrance of the breakfast restaurant. She greeted us with a warm smile every day and even guided us to the guest room elevator, fearing we'd walk a long way. Thumbs up!

After the booking was successfully confirmed, the hotel staff set up a dedicated service group chat (with two hotel staff members, Xiao Shen and Xiao Zhuang). In the chat, they proactively confirmed our high-speed railway pick-up and drop-off details. Changbaishan West Railway Station is about a 30-35 minute drive from the hotel. Our pick-up vehicle was a regular mini-coastal bus, and the drop-off vehicle was a Mercedes-Benz business van. Both drivers were very nice. The check-in and check-out processes were both extremely smooth. The front desk gentleman on duty on October 10th (apologies for not catching his name) definitely deserves high praise 👍. Whether it was helping us book the resort's shuttle bus or answering any questions we had, he was always prompt and helpful. The hotel room was comfortable and bright. The Italian restaurant on the ground floor serves decent food, and the staff even reminded us about discounted set menus available on review platforms. As it is the low season right after the National Day holiday, there were very few people around the entire resort. It's a wonderful place for a relaxing getaway and vacation.

I was very satisfied with my stay this time, and I especially want to commend Tina at the front desk for her service. The staff were all warm and polite. Check-in and check-out were efficient and quick, with no long waits at all. They were patient and meticulous when answering questions, and proactively provided important hotel information. When a small issue arose, they responded quickly, offering thoughtful and attentive service. Overall, it was a pleasant experience, and I had a great stay. I will definitely choose this hotel again for my next trip, it's highly recommended.

My stay at the Crowne Plaza Changbaishan Hot Spring was an absolute pleasant surprise! I was lucky enough to get a complimentary upgrade to a mountain view room. Opening the window revealed stunning forest scenery and a wonderfully relaxing view. The hotel's food was delicious, so there was no need to go out hunting for meals. The highlight, of course, was the natural hot spring—a soak left my whole body completely relaxed and instantly washed away the fatigue from mountain climbing. The service was attentive and thoughtful, the facilities were fully equipped, and it's super convenient for getting to the North Scenic Area. Definitely the top choice for a vacation in Changbaishan!

One of the highlights of my National Day trip to Changbai Mountain this year was staying at the Jinhua Hotel! During my stay, I was incredibly well taken care of by our butler, Tutu, every day. It truly felt like a home away from home. Before my arrival, Tutu held a room for me as I was arriving late and even upgraded me to an executive breakfast. On the day I checked in, they brought me some snacks, and on my birthday, they surprised me with a cake. The night before I left, I received a Proya skincare set. I was traveling alone, but it felt like I was surrounded by familiar warmth. A huge thank you again to Tutu! It's rare to find a hotel with such attentive and heartwarming staff; this alone makes it stand out from other hotels. The hotel's environment is also notably convenient and elegant. It's right next to the only snack street and entertainment area in Wanda Resort, making dining, drinking, and entertainment incredibly easy. Especially in the evening, when the ambient lights come on, it feels like stepping into a dreamy fairy tale. It's bustling yet peaceful, with unique and beautiful scenery. It's a shame that the long holiday flew by so quickly. I was truly sad to leave and plan to come back for a spring or winter holiday. I'll definitely stay here again, and I wish Butler Tutu all the best in their career and happiness every day!

For my trip to Yanji, I chose to stay at the Huayi Kairuos Hotel for two nights, and my overall experience far exceeded my expectations. I really have to commend their attention to detail when it comes to service. As soon as we arrived at the hotel entrance, a bellhop quickly came over, proactively took our luggage, and guided us to the front desk for check-in. He also thoughtfully pointed out the electric car charging stations by the entrance, mentioning that if we were driving, we could park directly in their exclusive parking spots, saving us the trouble of finding one ourselves. The front desk attendant who checked us in was exceptionally warm and enthusiastic. After verifying our information, she specifically told us that the panoramic French windows of our Deluxe Family Room overlooked the Yanji River, offering a fantastic view. She also handed us a pre-prepared local sightseeing card, which marked out walking routes to popular spots like the Yanbian University internet-famous wall, the West Market, and the Water Market. She even circled the most authentic ginseng chicken soup restaurant nearby for us. During our stay, one evening we returned to the hotel quite late after exploring. A bellhop, seeing us carrying bags full of Yanji local specialties, immediately came forward to help us with them. He accompanied us all the way to our room door and even reminded us that if the sensor lights in the hallway weren't bright enough at night, we could call the front desk anytime. The next day, when we were heading out for a walk in People's Park, a young lady at the front desk saw that we had an elderly person with us. She proactively offered us two complimentary bottles of mineral water and told us the closest entrance to the park, as well as where to find fewer stairs for an easier walk. The panoramic breakfast experience on the 24th floor was also excellent. The local specialties like Tteok (rice cakes), cold noodles, and kimchi were all authentic. From a window seat, you could directly overlook the entire city night view of Yanji and the sunrise in the morning. The super-sized bathtub in the room was incredibly relaxing after a day of activities. The panoramic French windows offered views of the Yanji River, and our child had a blast playing in the tatami area. The most pleasant surprise was on the day we checked out. We had so much luggage that we couldn't carry it all ourselves. The bell staff were already waiting in the lobby to help us load it into the car. The front desk even specially gave us two small bags of local Korean ethnic minority snacks, suggesting we could eat them if we got hungry on the road. From the moment we entered until we left, the enthusiasm of every staff member felt genuine, not just a perfunctory politeness. They truly put the guests' needs first. If you're visiting Yanji and want a hassle-free and comfortable stay, choosing this hotel is definitely a safe bet. I will certainly stay here again on my next visit to Yanji.

Day 14 of our border trip, and among all the hotels we've stayed in, this one was the most satisfying. When booking, I saw some negative reviews about dirty carpets, so I made a note requesting a room with cleaner carpets. Upon checking in, the carpet seemed freshly cleaned, very dry, and even had a slight fragrance. My requests were fully met, which was fantastic. The hotel lobby is very beautiful and grand. The greeters at the entrance were North Korean beauties dressed in Hanbok. They not only directed me to the counter but also escorted me to the elevator. The overall service at the hotel was excellent and very thoughtful. The room's style and furniture had a North Korean flair, and it was spacious. The breakfast was the absolute highlight – incredibly diverse, featuring North Korean snacks, Western, and Chinese dishes. Several North Korean beauties were also serving, and their service was very friendly. From now on, whenever I visit Hunchun, this will be the only place I choose to stay.
