Manting Hotel (Hongyadong Branch, Monument to the people's Liberation Pedestrian Street, Chongqing)

Pros: Great location with easy access to transportation. There are many delicious local eateries downstairs, offering a wide variety of breakfast specialties, making it feel very vibrant and authentic. Although the hotel is located in an old book building, the decor and facilities are relatively new. The entire room is smart-controlled, which is convenient and efficient. The room is cleaned daily and is very hygienic. All staff members are very friendly and made me feel welcome while away from home. Cons: The soundproofing in the room isn't very good.

The hotel's location is great, making it convenient to get around.

They said the front desk couldn't make tea for guests. I just asked for a little hot water, but they wouldn't give it. What kind of people are these, so stingy? It's not like I was asking for their personal belongings, and it was such a small request. Why even run a hotel? My child was sick, and I didn't want to use the room's kettle, so I asked to borrow some hot water from the front desk for medication. We had just arrived late after a long journey and were too tired to go out.

I never like to leave reviews, but this hotel was great value for money. In our small county, you can't get such a nice room for this price. No wonder it's Chongqing! This is my second time staying here, and my child loves it too! Double room. 1. The room is smart, with a big screen for watching movies! You can use Xiaodu (a smart speaker) to do whatever you want. The style is simple, warm, clean, and hygienic. They even provide free disposable face towels! I've never encountered this in other hotels before! 2. There are free snacks! 3. It's very close to Jiefangbei and Hongyadong. We only discovered this time that there's a slope to the left of the hotel entrance leading down to Dajing Alley with lots of delicious food and celebrity photo spots! It's cheaper than tourist attractions! 4. Parking is convenient. There's a garage at the bottom of the slope, and you can take the elevator directly to the 11th floor without dragging your luggage up stairs! People who don't drive might not know this 🤭 5. The mirror is huge, easy to use for makeup, very practical, I like it! I haven't stayed in their single double room yet, but I'll try it next time!

Extremely satisfied! Then I extended my stay for another night. Facilities: I love the automatic curtains! Environment: The environment is great and it's close to everything I need to go. Service: The front desk staff are very helpful! Cleanliness: Clean and comfortable.

The experience was pretty good. It's a short walk to Jiefangbei and Hongyadong. Hongyadong is super crowded! ❗Don't go to Hongyadong; it's hard to get a taxi, and the navigation is confusing. The hotel has a single-story staircase at the main entrance, requiring you to carry luggage up and down a flight of stairs to reach the lobby and take the elevator. I felt this was inconvenient for people with luggage. We were given a first-class room, but it was okay, close to the front desk. The room was smart, with multiple light switches to adjust the brightness and coziness, or you could leave one light on as a nightlight. It had a smart heated toilet, but there were no disposable toilet seat covers. Also, the shower leaked water into the room, making it damp; the sealing wasn't good, and you might slip and fall. There are restaurants and alleys downstairs. It's a bit of a walk to Jiaochangkou subway station, about 10 minutes. To get to Guanyinqiao, you need to transfer once; it's only 5 stops in total, a 30-minute walk by subway and walking, very convenient. By the way, the bayberry and lychee drink at Chunhong Hot Pot restaurant nearby is amazing, perfect for cooling down after spicy food, and only 1.8 yuan with a group purchase. Summary: It's a good place to stay, and the cleanliness is acceptable. The room is smart, with features like automatic curtains, a heated toilet, and a flushing system. There's also a small round table in the room, making for a pleasant stay. The air conditioning is quite strong; it's centrally controlled, but the heat is concentrated on the ceiling and blown towards the door, making it unbearably hot in the toilet and shower area. The air conditioning is fairly powerful, but the heat is directed in the wrong direction. It's convenient for visiting nearby attractions like Jiefangbei, Hongyadong, and Shibati, as the street is right outside, and it's not noisy with the windows closed. However, you have to carry your luggage up one floor to the front door, and the shower leaks water into the room.

I highly recommend this village-style boutique hotel chain! First, I want to praise the front desk service—they were efficient and had a great attitude. They answered all my questions instantly and even upgraded me to a room with a better view.
