2-Star Hotels in Yanji

I visited Yanji to travel to Mt. Baekdu independently and stayed here. I was worried about booking tickets and arranging transportation, but talking with the male owner resolved the issues. He is very knowledgeable about Yanbian travel information and tips, so I highly recommend this place to first-time visitors. Also, for those concerned about not speaking Chinese, I recommend staying here because the owner is of Korean descent. Being able to communicate provides a psychological boost. Through the owner, I purchased Mt. Baekdu tickets for 305 yuan and private car transportation for 150 yuan, making a day trip to Mt. Baekdu much easier. The accommodation is located near the University Town, but it is set back enough so it is not noisy. It is in a convenient location for walking around. I highly recommend this place to first-time visitors and independent travelers.

The room was clean and hygienic, very close to all the surrounding commercial areas, and there were many great food options nearby. On the first floor, there's free coffee and a Korean ethnic clothing experience. For extended stays, they offer room cleaning, which was a nice touch. Overall, my experience was excellent! 👍🏻

Like this hotel, I will write a good review for free. It is really cost-effective. This time I went to Yanji for a business trip. His facilities are very complete. The rooms are also beautifully decorated. The facilities are very good. The bathroom is dry and wet. Separate, projection, and the price is also favorable. Everyone must live here when you come to Yanji. The main parking is free and the parking space is convenient. Not far from the net red wall Yanda. If you see this comment when you pick a cost-effective hotel, you don’t have to pick it directly. It’s not good to follow up with me below.

The location is fantastic, right outside West Market, so shopping is super convenient. Within a kilometer's walk, there are all sorts of must-try restaurants. I stayed for four days, and every day I'd eat my fill, walk back to sleep, and then head out again for more food. I only took a taxi to one scenic spot, the Folk Park, for photos; everything else was within walking distance. Service: Absolutely outstanding! It's actually ruined me a bit; now when I travel to other cities and people are less attentive, I feel a little disappointed. They even do your laundry, drying and folding it for you in the laundry room – that service truly amazed me. You'll never have the problem of washing machines being full because previous guests haven't collected their clothes. I'm quite forgetful and often had to bother the front desk and cleaning staff, but they never seemed annoyed. The other day, I thought I'd lost my thermal underwear and then a sock. The front desk immediately offered to check the surveillance footage, but I decided it wasn't worth the trouble. Later, I found the sock in another bag (it wouldn't fit in the first two bags I'd taken), and the thermal underwear was rolled up with my other clothes. Then, I lost half an earbud while sleeping, and the cleaning staff helped me find it and even changed the linens 😭 I was so touched! 🥹 I want to recommend this place to everyone visiting Yanji! They're super quick with delivering water, tissues, and other items to the room, and changing the linens is handled incredibly fast too!

2D2N in this hotel in the off-season. I booked it based on the good reviews! BUT there were some unexpected things nobody talks about! Let’s go for a quick review👇🏻 What was good: • Super clean • A good firm mattress and two pillows to choose from: one soft and one firm ✨ • The bidet 🥰 • The price • Good Korean-style breakfast, but the same every day • Showroom full of Korean costumes • Sweet girl at reception, although she was a bit shy with foreigners 🤪 • Quiet outside, warm inside, and the air is fresher than in the city What was disappointing: • The TV turns on every time we come back — it’s kinda annoying • Since neither of us knows Chinese, we couldn’t use the voice assistant. We could've used it in English, but nobody helped us set it up (but it’s okay, because we visited just for the weekend) • Disposable towels 😅 (I prefer the soft cuddle of a real towel/bathrobe after a shower) • There were no dental supplies. It was disappointing and unexpected (but maybe it’s okay for a hotel at this price, who knows?) General conclusion: It’s the best option for a Korean-style photoshoot for a few days. Good for sleeping after walking around all day. But if you’re visiting just for the weekend and you don’t need photos, it’s better to stay somewhere near the city centre. As for me, I like fresh air, and in this hotel I could have it. In the city centre it’s only air-conditioned, so this is kinda the better choice for me… What about you? Who knows! Next time I’m gonna try a hotel in the centre or with hot springs. p.s. I forgot to made more photos or video, so some details it's all I have for this review. Thank you ✨

The room is just a few minutes' walk from the river. We enjoyed the scenery on our way to Duan Bridge, and it felt like no time at all. The hotel front desk recommended a restaurant nearby, and the food there was delicious.

The boss is very good, warm and caring, the service is meticulous and thoughtful, responsive, and makes people feel particularly warm. The decoration of the room is very textured, with complete facilities such as smart toilets, projections, tea bar machines, and careful details. The space is spacious and bright, the lighting is good, the bedding is comfortable, and the washing area is uniquely designed. The overall modern and simple without losing style, the stay experience is superb, highly recommended!

I had a great time in Yánjí since I planned a lot of border excursions. I can speak both Korean and Chinese comfortably to navigate this region, which is also known as the Third Korea. The location of this place was great since it was in the city center across from Yanji University. (I was assigned room 1206.) I'm not sure which photos they're using for advertising, but my room looked far more beat up and outdated. I also killed a lot of small cockroaches that were roaming around the kitchenette area. Again, this was not a big deal for me since they weren't ginormous, but one huge cockroach did appear one day near the bathroom. It's one thing for the room to look somewhat different from the advertised photos, but please at least keep the space much cleaner. (The laundry machine was bonus, but I had to buy laundry soap next door at the convenience store. This should have been provided considering there was an empty soap box on the floor next to the machine.) The reason why I booked this place was to do frequent laundry rather than stay at a hotel... I traveled from NYC, so it wasn't like I was an average Chinese tourist from a domestic region. This was my first visit to China since 1996.05 and I used my 10-year China visa for the first time since I applied back in 2017.08. Note: I checked out the other rooms on the floor and they were much nicer than what I booked. I'm guessing those were listed on WeChat and the less attractive rooms are listed on here, etc. After I checked out by 12:00 noon, I stored my luggage next door at the convenience store for a few hours. They charged CN¥5/per hour… I paid CN¥15 since I knew 3 hours was all I needed before my flight.

The hotel is about 15 to 20 minutes drive from Yanji West Railway Station (without traffic jam). These's many shops around the hotel such as manicure, bbq restaurant, hair salon, and shopping malls (about 10 to 15 minutes walk). The cleanliness of the hotel can be improved especially the carpet in the room. There's smell in the room but we are not sure what smell is that.. You will need to contact the boss for room service if not, no room service will be done. The boss is friendly and prompt in replying our queries. If you are only want to find an affordable place to stay, you may consider this place. Otherwise..

Our stay was a mixed bag. Hostel is ideally located in the central area, making it convenient for taking bus or taxi, trying variety of food options, and shopping. The price was definitely a deciding factor in our stay, so this hostel was a winner in that regard. This hostel is ideal for students on a limited budget, but few improvements would be needed for better stay. There is no full time staff presence which caused some inconvenience. There were cigarette butts everywhere in the terrace ground. Recommendable for a short stay on a tight budget.
