Convenient Stay for Golden Summit Sunrise
This is for travelers who want to catch the breathtaking sunrise without the need for an early-morning hike.
Mountain hotels tend to be basic, but they serve their purpose well. We appreciated the spacious room, the comfortable bed, and the super prime location just steps away from the summit of Yunhai Yinlong. The check-in process was fast, and communicating with the hotel via WeChat was efficient. We were also thankful for the information they provided on sunset and sunrise timings. Although we didn’t book breakfast, the hotel kindly offered it to us for free. We also had dinner there, and the food was delicious.
A few things to consider, so you can manage your expectations:
1. The bathroom is a wet-style bathroom.
2. The hotel’s near the Jinding cable car means it can be quite noisy until around 6 pm, when the cable car stops running.
3. While it's quieter after 6 pm, the sounds of night hikers and early-morning hikers can be disruptive if you're looking for a peaceful night’s rest.
A small tip: Logistically, reaching these mountaintop hotels involves taking a bus from Baoguosi or Wuxiangang Station to Leidongping, followed by a roughly 45-minute hike with some steep steps to Jinding, and then taking the cable car to the upper platform. It's best to travel with a backpack rather than luggage.
