Chongqing Jiefangbei Hongya Cave Houju High-altitude River-view Hotel

The hotel is in a very bad shape. It’s really not clean and very old. One window was broken. It was advertised a 270 degree room, but there is only a 90 degree view.

Offering breathtaking high-altitude river views over the city, and exceptionally warm, attentive service, this hotel is the perfect central choice for an unforgettable stay in Chongqing.

Staying at Chongqing Houju High‑rise River‑view Hotel was well beyond my expectations on my trip to Chongqing. Nestled in the heart of Jiefangbei, the hotel boasts an unbeatable location. Major attractions including Jiefangbei, Hongyadong and Shibati are mostly within walking distance, while other spots are easily reachable by light rail, saving you lots of travelling trouble. Boasting high‑floor rooms with wide‑open views, it offers stunning river views and city nightscapes. Once the lights come on, you can feast your eyes on the unique glittering night scenery of mountain city Chongqing right in your room, no need to squeeze at crowded viewing platforms. The front‑desk staff provided thoughtful service and recommended authentic local hot‑pot, string skewer restaurants and home‑style eateries with great flavours and favourable prices, helping us avoid tourist‑trap venues. Featuring American‑style decor, the rooms stand out from most other hotels. The accommodation is spotlessly clean, with daily housekeeping service for extended stays. We had an amazing overall experience and will definitely choose this hotel again on our next visit to Chongqing.

My stay at Houju High‑rise River‑view Hotel was absolutely wonderful. It enjoys an excellent location in the core area of Jiefangbei. You can walk to Hongyadong and Bayi Food Street easily, with plenty of local restaurants nearby. The high‑floor room offers fantastic views of the Yangtze River and Yuzhong skyline. It is breathtaking to watch the city light up at dusk. The room is spotlessly clean, with tidy bedding and bathroom. Well‑equipped with a projector and lounge seating, the stylish retro‑decorated room is very comfortable. The staff are friendly and efficient, responding quickly to requests. Highly recommended for couples and friends traveling to Chongqing.

This hotel was located in a perfect spot, so close to everything in the city and great food right outside. The view was amazing, especially at night.

Everything's great - the location, the view, the room - except for the air conditioning. First, at least put a translation of what the Chinese text on the buttons means next to it. I used online translation and still lost the battle - no matter what I set it too, it was too cold, resulting in a sleepless night. And second - do the same (translation) for the projector.

Good view from hotel. The hotel provided afternoon tea set also. Very strategic location to go everywhere in Chongqing

This is a decent hotel, it’s literally right in the centre. The views from the room was immaculate. However, I would not stay here again, the room definitely needed an upgrade and a deep cleaning. The breakfast that they offer for a price was disgusting, everything was cold when they brought it to the room, and the coffee tasted extremely burnt. I wouldn’t really mind if it was included in the hotel price, but this is something I paid more money for.

I had an absolutely fantastic stay at Houju High-rise River View Hotel during my trip to Chongqing, and I’d highly recommend it to every traveler! The hotel boasts an unbeatable location, with easy access to major scenic spots and a great variety of local restaurants nearby, making transportation and dining extremely convenient. The breathtaking landscape is the biggest highlight: the floor-to-ceiling panoramic windows offer a stunning bird’s-eye view of the Yangtze River, Yuzhong skyline and rolling mountains. You can enjoy the city’s vibrant skyline in the daytime and the dazzling night lights along the river at night. The room facilities are well-equipped, featuring elegant retro decor, cozy and soft bedding, and a well-designed dry-wet separated bathroom. The hygiene standard is impeccable—every corner of the room is spotlessly clean, with no dust or unpleasant odors. The staff provide warm and thoughtful service, with quick check-in and prompt responses to all requests. It’s a perfect accommodation choice combining great views, convenient location, top-tier facilities and attentive service.
