Hongzhushan Hotels & Resorts Chanyi Shanju

If you're coming to climb Mount Emei, I highly recommend staying at Hongzhushan Hotel. We stayed in Building 7, the Zen Mountain Retreat, which features a private hot spring in the room – definitely worth trying. The hotel grounds are expansive and located right at the foot of Mount Emei, making it incredibly convenient for hiking and visiting temples. Even within the hotel, there are mountains, a lake, historic buildings, and exotic animals, so you'll find plenty to explore without ever leaving the premises. The room was spacious and bright, with floor-to-ceiling windows offering panoramic forest views. Lying in bed, you're surrounded by lush greenery. The hot spring on the balcony provided ample privacy, and listening to the 'Bashan Night Rain' in the evening created a truly enchanting atmosphere. The service truly deserves special mention. The hotel offers a shuttle service to and from Emeishan High-Speed Rail Station. From the front desk reception, check-in, and housekeeping to the hot spring bathing, Chinese restaurant dining, and afternoon tea at the lobby bar, we received attentive, thoughtful, and professional service throughout – they truly anticipated our every need. Upon learning we planned to climb Mount Emei, the hotel staff provided detailed information on hiking precautions, helped us plan our route in advance, kept us updated on weather conditions, and even handmade bamboo hiking poles for us, which was incredibly touching! The hotel's Chinese restaurant serves delicious food, with all the classic Emei Mountain dishes available. The breakfast spread was diverse and high-quality. The afternoon tea at the lobby bar was also excellent, perfect for relaxing and enjoying a drink after a hike. Overall, Hongzhushan Hotel was the most comfortable and satisfying stop on my trip to Mount Emei.

I've been so incredibly busy lately that I couldn't plan anything in advance. It was only the night before the Mid-Autumn Festival that we decided to go to Mount Emei for a few days. Hongzhushan was our only choice for accommodation in Emei, especially after the Zen Mountain Dwelling was built; everyone loves it even more, hahaha!!! Luckily, there were still rooms available even with the last-minute booking. It was quite late when we arrived, and the XC customer service was actively helping me communicate the check-in details, making changes again and again. Thanks to both teams! 1. Hotel Activities 【Singing Bowl Meditation】(3:00 PM - 3:40 PM) The holiday activities were really abundant! We participated in the meditation activity that afternoon. After lunch, we drove two hours from the city to the hotel, and I was so tired. As soon as the teacher started playing the singing bowl, we all fell asleep. It was so funny; I closed my eyes and thought I heard birds chirping in the music, but then realized it was real birds outside, haha!!! Actually, I hadn't taken a nap when we arrived, and coupled with my recent sleep deprivation and a post-lunch 'carb coma,' my head was throbbing. The meditation allowed me to sleep for half an hour, and when I woke up, my headache was gone – it really worked!!! After waking everyone up, the teacher patiently introduced all the tools used, and we had a brief chat for a few minutes before class ended. 【Former Residence Visit】(4:00 PM) We've stayed at Hongzhushan many, many times, but this was genuinely my first time participating in the former residence visit, complete with a guide. (And this timing was perfectly arranged, half an hour after the meditation ended. In between, I quickly went to the hotel front desk to buy a [Spicy Crispy Double-Flavor Ice Cream] to eat, rested a bit, and then rushed to the next event. This arrangement was excellent; our afternoon activities were very fulfilling – hats off to the planner!) As it was a holiday, the tour group was quite large, but after everyone gradually left, I wanted to take some photos, and the guide patiently allowed us to stay and take pictures. I felt so lucky! 【Rabbit Lanterns】(7:00 PM) Coinciding with the Mid-Autumn Festival, adults could also participate in making rabbit lanterns, but you had to be on time! If you were late, the materials would be gone, and the teacher couldn't provide guidance. The rabbit lanterns were quite simple and very fitting for the occasion! 【Hongzhuding Blessing】(9:00 AM on the 1st and 15th of the ***** month) This time, I was incredibly lucky to catch the Hongzhuding Blessing (note the timing; the manager said it's usually only on the 1st and 15th). Everyone wrote wishes, struck the gong (9 times per person), and finally received a osmanthus sachet (reportedly made from osmanthus picked from trees personally planted by famous individuals). It was very commemorative, and my family had a great time!! Also, any questions could be directed to the butler at any time. Thumbs up for the excellent service; I'll definitely stay here again if I have the chance! Activities we didn't have time for included: handmade sachets and mooncake ring toss. These were the Mid-Autumn Festival activities; the National Day activities are even more numerous and happen daily. Remember to book in advance! 2. Room Environment Previously, we stayed in a mountain-view room, but everyone found it just average, so this time we chose a pine-view room. The pine-view rooms are on the side facing the road, but I didn't notice any noise, so either room type is fine. Personally, I prefer the pine-view. All rooms come with a private soaking tub. Soaking in it in the morning and evening means you don't need to go to a hot spring; it's really convenient (this time I brought elderly relatives, and I was particularly worried about them catching a cold after hot springs, so ever since the Zen Mountain Dwelling was built, we've been staying here... I think this is a major reason why we choose this building). And after climbing to the Golden Summit during the day, coming back to soak and relax in the evening is incredibly pleasant. The soaking tub provides bath salts with a lovely fragrance; remember to sprinkle them in! During this season, mosquitoes and insects were fine, not many, and they didn't bite me, haha. In summer, you'd probably need to be more careful, but the hotel provides electric mosquito repellents, so I wasn't worried... The hotel's vegetation is lush, and the air is full of negative oxygen ions; every breath is incredibly healing. Strolling by Hongzhu Lake offers beautiful scenery, and there are many surrounding attractions like Baoguo Temple and Fuhu Temple. In any case, a trip to the Golden Summit is a must. 3. Bedding, Hygiene, Infrastructure There were plenty of pillows, enough for everyone, and the sheets and floor were very clean, absolutely no issues. After we left the room, the cleaning staff responsibly cleaned it, and any necessary supplies were delivered very promptly. The infrastructure is complete. The TV sound can be piped into the bathroom, there's a lighted mirror, and a larger, closer dressing table. The room included welcome fruits, and there was plenty of water. Very good. 4. Dining The hotel's breakfast selection is also very rich. One very important thing is!!!! They have a chef with a red collar who is just too adorable, full of anecdotes (or rather, just very humorous conversations). He made me so happy, oh my goodness!!!!! I asked him, "Is this part of your training?" He said, "Training? This is self-study." Hahahaha!! This Mid-Autumn Festival stay also included a complimentary buffet dinner for both nights, which was absolutely fantastic. I personally recommend everyone eat at the hotel, because (on our first day) there were so many hotel activities, and on the second day, we were so tired after climbing the Golden Summit that we really didn't want to eat out. Plus, elderly people need healthy, low-oil, low-salt meals, so the hotel's arrangement was truly excellent! Both dinner and breakfast menus changed daily. What we ate and everyone unanimously praised included: pan-fried chicken wings, typhoon shelter style crab, seafood stew, beef hotpot, chaoshou (dumplings - had them every morning!), roasted meat (oh my god, it was so fragrant at dinner!), A-choy with squid flower, spicy yellow eel, Sichuan-style yellow catfish, fatty intestine and bullfrog... Anyway, there were so many varieties. Everyone ended up gaining a couple of pounds after hiking the mountain, haha. It was a very happy trip. Every time I come to Hongzhushan, it's a joy, and each time brings different memories and interesting experiences. It's truly wonderful! ^ ^

During the National Day holiday, I stayed at the Hongzhushan Zen Mountain Retreat while traveling to Mount Emei. The hotel's location is convenient, surrounded by lush trees, making it a perfect forest oxygen bar with fresh air. The staff were warm and attentive, and a customer service manager was assigned to me for any inquiries. The room was tidy and clean, and it came with a private hot spring, which was very relaxing. There's also a public forest hot spring to experience. Breakfast offered a rich variety of delicious options. The lunch set menu also provided good value and taste. Overall, it was quiet and pleasant, very suitable for a short relaxing getaway. The experience was excellent, and it's definitely worth another visit!

The beauty of Hongzhushan is hidden in the dawn and dusk of its mountain forests. In the early morning, a gentle mist drifts over the lakeside, birdsong fills the air, and the mountains and water intertwine, creating an incredibly atmospheric scene. The hotel's environment is serene and rustic, and the guest rooms are comfortably appointed. When you soak in the hot springs, you get to enjoy the forest views all to yourself. The service is gentle and attentive, without any rush. The dining, including its ambiance, is absolutely amazing. Discovering such a sanctuary at the foot of Mount Emei, where you can quietly unwind with the mountains and waters embracing you, makes the journey feel gentle and enduring.

During the National Day holiday, I visited Mount Emei and stayed at the Hongzhushan Zen Mountain Retreat. The hotel environment is excellent, with a prime location nestled in a natural forest oxygen bar. The room was tidy, clean, and well-equipped, providing a peaceful stay. The customer service manager was friendly and responsive; I could contact them anytime with questions. The breakfast offered a good variety and tasted delicious. Both the forest hot spring and the private in-room hot spring were very comfortable and incredibly relaxing. Overall, everything was great, making it a perfect spot for a leisurely vacation!

I visited Mount Emei with my family during the Mid-Autumn Festival and had pre-booked a room at the Zen-themed Mountain Retreat within the Hongzhushan Hotel. The hotel offered a great experience overall. It boasts an excellent location and an elegant environment, complete with mountains and a lake where mist gently drifts. I've stayed here before, and the rooms are spacious and clean, featuring private hot spring baths. The hot springs are wonderful, with just the right water temperature. The staff were very helpful, assisting with luggage and explaining the hotel's facilities patiently and enthusiastically. Breakfast is served on the first floor with fresh dishes. If you have enough time, there are also some value-added services you can enjoy daily. Overall, it was a very pleasant stay, and I'll definitely come back next time I have the chance!

Back at Hongzhushan, and the experience was fantastic! The hotel is surrounded by lush forests, providing an abundance of negative oxygen ions. Upon arrival, we were assigned a dedicated butler who thoughtfully explained all the activities available and provided warm greetings throughout our stay. The rooms were clean, bright, and well-equipped, even featuring a bathtub. Breakfast offered a wide variety of delicious local specialties. The resort also boasts mineral hot springs, and the forest hot springs at night are perfect for photos, with clear and comfortable water. Additionally, there's a swimming pool and a gym. With its great environment and excellent service, it's truly an ideal place for a relaxing vacation.

I chose the Zen Mountain Retreat at Hongzhushan for my Emeishan trip, and overall, it was a great experience! The grounds are perfect for a stroll or a relaxing getaway, with a lake for scenic walks and fresh air. It's conveniently located near the Emeishan bus station if you need to head up the mountain. My family found the room lovely, quiet, and elegant. It comes with its own hot spring, or you can visit the dedicated hot spring complex, both offering a great soak. The service was excellent, with a dedicated customer manager assisting us with any inquiries upon check-in. The restaurant had a nice ambiance and good food, and breakfast was also enjoyable. All in all, it was a really good stay!
