Cheap Hotels in Daocheng County

"From check-in to check-out, everything was thoughtful. The concierge and front desk staff were polite and enthusiastic, even thoughtfully preparing brown sugar ginger tea and welcome fruits. Facilities: The hotel has a 24-hour medical oxygen bar, and just 10 minutes there quickly relieves altitude sickness. The rooms have a diffuse medical oxygen supply, which lowers the perceived altitude to about 2700 meters, allowing for a good night's sleep. Service: As soon as we arrived at the hotel entrance, a butler helped with our luggage and escorted us to our room after check-in. The next morning, when we were checking out, the front desk proactively asked if we needed help with our luggage, which was a very thoughtful touch. Hygiene: The bathroom had separate wet and dry areas, was clean, tidy, and well-ventilated. The lobby was also kept spotless at all times. The airport shuttle stop is right outside the hotel, and booking certain room types includes a free airport drop-off, making it the best choice for return journeys."

"This was a perfect place to spend the night in Daocheng before a flight the next morning. It is only a 15 minute walk away from the White Pagoda, and there are shops and restaurants nearby. Staff were very helpful with figuring out logistics for getting to the airport and recommending activities and restaurants in the area (Make sure to have WeChat set up). One of the ladies spoke fairly good English too. My one complaint is that the tap water seemed to have a slight brown hue to it, especially when using warm/hot water. This showed up in both the sink and shower. Thus, I did not want to use the tap water to brush my teeth or to filter for drinking, which has not been a concern of mine anywhere else in China. Because I usually use a water filter to drink the tap, I did not have extra bottled water prepared beforehand. Some is provided, but if you think you'll use/drink a lot of water (as I do, especially because of how dry it is in Daocheng), buy some extra beforehand."

"The lack of dry and wet separation in the bathroom is a bit unsatisfactory. The hotel service is very friendly. They will help you with your luggage when you arrive and leave. You can also take fruits and snacks from the front desk at will, and you will also receive souvenirs when you arrive at the hotel. Towels and bath towels are disposable, and the bath water is not very hot, so you will easily catch a cold after washing! It's very close to the town center. It's a ten-minute walk to the pedestrian street where you can take a stroll. It’s very close to the famous ******* restaurant. I ate highland barley cakes, blood sausage, roasted ******* pork, and yogurt there. They were huge and delicious."

"The B&B's overall ambiance is amazing, with a strong ethnic vibe everywhere. The owner, a lovely lady, is incredibly gentle and kind, offering attentive and thoughtful service. She can help arrange travel tickets and tour itineraries. The location is superb, just a five or six-minute walk to the scenic area, and they even offer free shuttle service to and from town. The front desk staff patiently recommends local specialty dishes, making dining and getting around super convenient. I highly recommend it! Although I didn't take any pictures, I truly urge everyone to go; I promise I'm not a shill!"

"I had high expectations for this hotel, given its 5-star rating. Unfortunately, my experience did not meet that standard. I had booked five rooms. We arrived at 6:00 PM, and there was a queue for check-in with only one staff member at the counter. As a result, the service quality was poor. The process was not smooth and was frequently interrupted by other guests. Upon heading to our rooms, we found the hotel corridor lights were not turned on. The dark corridors made it difficult to locate our room numbers. To our disappointment, one of the rooms was not ready. While we would understand an early check-in issue at 2:00 PM, finding an unprepared room at 6:30 PM is unacceptable for a 5-star hotel. The overall service was a major letdown. On a positive note, the room itself was clean and spacious, breakfast has a good selection."

"Overall, my stay was excellent. The environment was quiet and comfortable, and the cleanliness was top-notch. The facilities were complete, the service was attentive, and the price was very reasonable. I highly recommend staying here."

"A perfect hotel!! The location is incredible, right inside the reserve with a beautiful mountain view. The hotel service is excellent — they know a little English and are very service-oriented. They upgraded us for free to a huge room. There’s bed heating, floor heating, and plenty of hot water. The room itself was huge and beautiful with everything you need. The hotel has a restaurant that’s really delicious, and there’s always tea and candy available to take. They helped us understand which trails to do and how to get everywhere in the reserve. One night, one of us felt altitude sickness, and they helped us a lot with an oxygen machine and excellent service with genuine care. Overall, a top-tier hotel."

"Regarding transportation, my navigation couldn't lead me directly to the hotel's courtyard. I ended up calling the front desk, and a staff member came out to guide me. The route is: follow the main road to the alley next to the 'Snack Youming' store, and go all the way to the end. The room and facilities were great; I even got a free upgrade to a suite. The shower pressure and water temperature were perfect, and the bed's firmness was just right. There's also a laundry room in the hotel. Overall, the facilities and environment met my expectations. However, there were two minor drawbacks. The toilet flush button was blocked by the vanity, making it a bit inconvenient to use. Also, there was no place to hang clothes in the room. The front desk also offers oxygen top-up services."

"The hotel might look old, BUT it has a grand view! The view from either my room or the rooftop is incredible! I visited in May 2026 and I can see BOTH the golden sunrise and the golden sunset from here. The hotel owner was also nice eventhough we did not talk much. Prepare your cold clothes, so you can enjoy the incredible view comfortably. PS: My room which was on the 3rd floor, was also clean eventhough they don't have elevator, so you have to use stairs if you stay here. But I would say it was an amazing stay for me."
