Seventeen Hotel . Meili

The room was very spacious and well-equipped. You could see the Meili Snow Mountain directly from both the room's balcony and the cafe. Afternoon tea and dinner were freshly prepared and cooked to order, and the taste was very satisfying. It's a bit of a shame that the weather wasn't great this time, so we didn't get to see the full panorama of the snow mountain. If I have the chance to visit again, I'll definitely choose Shiqian again.

Every room in this hotel offers a direct view of the snow-capped mountains, and the viewing platform on the fourth floor is absolutely stunning. The rooms are spacious, and the bedding is clean and comfortable. They also provide diffused oxygen supply. We were lucky enough to witness the 'Golden Mountain at Sunrise' – we set our alarm for 6:10 AM and headed straight to the fourth floor, which was perfect. No need to jostle with crowds at the public viewing area. This is a truly fantastic hotel!

This stay truly exceeded my expectations! I booked it mainly because it's the closest hotel to the Rizhao Jinshan Observation Deck, so I didn't have high hopes initially. The entrance even seemed quite ordinary. But from the moment I stepped into the lobby and saw the decor all the way to my room, I absolutely loved the design style. When we first walked into the room, we all gasped with delight, like little kids! The huge floor-to-ceiling windows meant we could lie in bed and watch the Rizhao Jinshan sunrise directly... The complimentary afternoon tea was also a lovely touch. Sipping tea on the fourth floor, gazing at the snow-capped mountains, and chatting with my best friends – it was the perfect getaway for a girls' trip!

I booked the Yunshu, room F02, and I highly recommend this room type. The location is absolutely perfect, right above the Meili road sign. Personally, I think the view of the snow-capped mountains from the room is even better than from the Feilai Temple viewing platform downstairs. The floor-to-ceiling window next to the sofa in the room directly faces the Shennü Peak, and you can also see Kawagebo, though unfortunately, the weather wasn't good on the day I was there, so I missed out on that. The room also provides a tripod, which you can set up on the balcony for photos. The afternoon tea was also great; I absolutely loved the sour tamarind iced Americano. We also had dinner on the first floor (basement), and the food was delicious with generous portions. The staff were all very friendly and even gave us a special souvenir, a cute little cup, when we left. It's a shame we didn't get to see the 'golden mountains in the sun' due to the weather. I'll definitely come back in winter. See you next time, Meili Shiqi! 🤜

The glass angles are a bit of an issue; the room's view isn't as good as the afternoon tea platform on the top floor. No charging stations available. The room lighting is insufficient, and the projector is practically useless—it's incredibly blurry. My phone even rang around 4 or 5 AM, waking me up. They helped with my luggage when I arrived, but when I checked out, I was on my own. The only upside is that you don't have to deal with crowds when enjoying the view in the morning.

The location is excellent! The hotel's 4th-floor viewing deck offers an incredible spot to witness the 'Golden Mountain Bathed in Sunlight' (Rizhao Jinshan), with absolutely stunning views. It's very quiet, as only hotel guests are allowed up there. Having an exclusive view of the snow-capped mountains made the experience of watching the Rizhao Jinshan absolutely divine!

The hotel is right by the Feilai Temple viewing platform, and every window offers a stunning view of the snow-capped mountains. The cafe on the fourth floor boasts a unique vantage point unmatched by any other hotel in the area. During sunrise, only hotel guests are allowed in, which is a stark contrast to the hundreds of people with their phones recording at the viewing platform below. The hotel even thoughtfully provides tripods in each room. It was a truly perfect stay. I hope everyone gets to witness the 'Golden Mountain in the Sunlight'!

The 270-degree viewing platform is absolutely amazing, and the ambiance is fantastic. The cheesecake is delicious, the room is incredibly spacious, and the hairdryer is a genuine Dyson. Finally, a place with a normal small showerhead!

A fantastic hotel for viewing Meili Snow Mountain, with attentive service. The prayer flag printing activity was very meaningful. The prayer flags flutter in the wind, carrying sutras; the snowmelt water gurgles, resembling a stone chanting machine.
