Danba Hotels with Bars

This B&B was my favorite during my trip to western Sichuan. Every detail was meticulously appointed, the bedding was comfortable, and the breakfast and dinner were fantastic! The owner and his family were not only warm and welcoming, but also seasoned travelers, offering us first-time visitors to western Sichuan plenty of excellent advice. The owner and his wife especially enjoyed drinking tea and reading, which perfectly matched the B&B's name!

The path up the mountain to find the hotel was narrow, and some side roads weren't clearly indicated in the navigation. Turning around after taking the wrong turn was incredibly difficult. I finally found the hotel, completely exhausted. Just as I was about to complain, two large golden retrievers darted out, excitedly and warmly greeting me. What else could I say?! The tatami room was modernly decorated, with many new appliances and a large projector, which was quite effective. The bath towels and handwashing cups were all disposable, which was very hygienic! Each room had a balcony with a view, offering mountain views during the day and stargazing at night... Overall, it was great. What I loved and missed most were the two golden retrievers, Zhaocai and Jinbao, who brought me so much joy...

The butler upgraded us to a loft room with a bathtub. It's a Tibetan-style building, and the interior decor also has a ******* flair. You can step directly from the second floor onto a huge outdoor terrace to enjoy the views. The room was very comfortable, the service was excellent, and the owner was incredibly welcoming. The scenery of the ******* village is beautiful, and the food was delicious. This was the best place to stay during our entire trip through Western Sichuan with no altitude sickness. Highly recommended!

I saw a friend stay at this hotel on WeChat Moments several years ago, and seeing the price of Queen's Castle skyrocket, we decided to stay here this time since we were passing by. Service: The landlady was very busy, but she upgraded our room upon arrival. The staff's attitude and service were generally so-so; they didn't proactively help with luggage and were always rushing around, but it wasn't too bad. Location: At the very top, the view is fantastic, but not ideal for drivers. New drivers or those with small 1.4T cars should proceed with caution. However, our drone was quite efficient, providing a panoramic view. Facilities: The rooms and decor were very unique, but there was no air conditioning or heating. However, there were electric blankets, so it wasn't cold. The only downside was the extremely smelly toilet. This definitely needs to be addressed, otherwise, it wastes such a beautiful view. Food: Dinner was nothing special. The portions were huge, so order accordingly. Overall, the view is excellent.

From Jinchuan to Danba, I chose Jiarong Academy B&B. The hotel is located on the mountain, which is quite convenient for self-driving people. The parking lot is very convenient at the door. The front desk lady will greet you after you park. The service is good. The room view is very good, and you can see the snow-capped mountains in the distance. The room area is not large. It has its own restaurant. We did not go out to find it, but solved it directly in their restaurant. The breakfast is basically OK for those who are not demanding. The mountain air is fresh in the morning, which makes people feel comfortable.

The B&B is located halfway up the mountain, so there are indeed a lot of winding roads and it's difficult to pass oncoming cars. However, it's great that we could drive right up to the entrance without having to walk. As soon as we got out of the car, the friendly guy at the front desk greeted us enthusiastically and helped with our luggage. We arrived quite late, but the staff still prepared hot milk and some snacks for us. The next day, we slept in naturally. When we woke up, the morning mist was incredibly beautiful. It was the most restful night's sleep I'd had in days in a high-altitude area. On the second day, one of the hotel staff members took us on a tour of the village and even picked plums and apples for us. An old lady we passed by warmly greeted us and invited us in for tea. I really love this kind of simple, human-touch local experience. I've already made plans with my friends to come back when the pear blossoms bloom in spring!

The hotel environment is excellent! The parking lot is large, convenient for travelers with cars. Rooms offer mountain views, as does the restaurant, and there's also an open-air lounge area with views of the snow-capped mountains. The decor is very tasteful, the bedding is very comfortable, the bathroom has a separate shower and toilet, and it's very clean. There's also an adorable little white cat.

I chose Banshan Villa because the word ”Banshan” touched my hometown sentiment. It was pure fate. We arrived early that day, before 5pm. It is located halfway up the mountain in the village. We can go up to the fourth and fifth viewing platforms. The homestay faces the sacred mountain and has a large yard. I chatted with the landlord in the cool air, as if I had returned to my childhood. My hometown really feels like home. OK, let me formally review the particularly good places: the bedding is comfortable, the living room is comfortable, the yard is comfortable, the facilities are complete (there are charging piles and water pipes, which can be charged and washed), the hot water is comfortable (the water pressure and water volume are particularly high), the dog Hanako Smart and well-behaved...is that enough? No! Most importantly, the boss is very easy-going and down-to-earth. He would say: Just treat this as your home! I haven't experienced other ******* homestays, but after staying at Banshan Villa, I will definitely choose it next time!

It is inevitable that there will be accidents during the journey, but the way the homestay responds is reassuring. Our self-driving tires are a bit of gas. After asking the boss for help, he immediately found the gas pump to help inflate, and carefully checked the tire pressure. The homestay is located within the Jiaju Tibetan Village scenic spot, the scenery is excellent, and it is very convenient to enter and exit. Friends in the same group had a little altitude sickness, and the clerk immediately provided Rhodiola tea and oxygen bottles. The most moving thing was that after checking out, I found that the charger was in the room. After contacting them, the clerk immediately said that he could help mail it home. This unprejudiced and responsible attitude provides a solid backing for our journey.

The room was spacious and clean. The underground parking was large, which was a significant advantage in this small county town. The room faced the town and had a nice view, but the square dancing downstairs didn't end until around 9 PM. There were many convenient restaurants downstairs, and the hotel breakfast was decent.
