Chongqing Hotels with Private Pools

"The location was fantastic - 山城步道 is just opposite, and 10 min walk away is 十八梯. If you continue walking you will end up in 解放碑 and 洪崖洞. Walk somemore and you will reach 来福士 (took me about 2.5h). The concierge is currently on the 4th floor in a makeshift area but the girls were nice and helped me receive my taobao parcels on my behalf before my arrival. They were also amiable during our communication on Wechat. The hotel room is pretty and definitely aesthetic, but after having been to over a dozen Chinese hotels, the cleanliness can be improved as the sofa chair didn't look too clean and there was plenty of grout. The showerhead also isn't exactly in the best condition as the water was leaking from the sides. Additionally, the toilet also had a bit of sewage smell so that's something to keep in mind ~ The view from the 41st floor is amazing though and you get both street view and sea view."

"I stumbled upon this hotel during my trip, and it's incredibly convenient regarding transportation. It's right next to the monorail station, with lines 1, 2, and 6 easily accessible. It's also within walking distance of many popular attractions like Shibati, Hongyadong, the cable car, and the Mountain City Trail. The hotel is on the 29th floor, so it's very quiet and not noisy at all. The soundproofing is excellent, and the high-floor window views are expansive, with a beautiful night view that's really comfortable to look at. Staying here is truly chill! The rooms are equipped with smart assistants, so you just say ”Xiao Du Xiao Du” for voice control. You don't even need to manually open the curtains – perfect for someone lazy like me!"

"I was absolutely amazed when I first saw the room! The ambiance was fantastic. The hotel even upgraded our room for free! There's a huge tub perfect for soaking, and the panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows offer a spectacular night view. The room has a very artistic feel, and the private hot spring tub comes with disposable bath liners. However, if you let the water run for too long, the hot water might run out. It was clean and tidy, with no noticeable odors. The hotel pays attention to details, providing complimentary water, coke, and snacks, among other things."

"This hotel is perfectly located in the heart of Jiefangbei, Yuzhong District. Step right out to Shancheng Lane and Shibati Scenic Area, and Hongyadong is within walking distance. The location is absolutely fantastic! The room's Wi-Fi, air conditioning, and hot water were all fully functional and excellent. The service was also very attentive and made for a very comfortable stay."

"An amazing hotel. The location is unbeatable. The rooms are fantastic. We had a Prada room with amazing views and a bathtub on floor 34. The staff is very attentive and we connected to WeChat to communicate in English for any questions or requests. Without any doubt we would stay in this hotel again. Highly recommended!"

"The view is great. The front desk is friendly, helpful and accommodating. When we had questions or concerns they answered immediately via wechat. But aside from the friendly service and the great view, the hotel room itself is not worth the price. We stayed in the 270 duplex with large pool. The pool is that- a small sized jacuzzi that CAN NOT be heated. I don’t know why the hotel wouldn’t allow it to be heated, I am not going to sit in freezing water and look at the view on a cold evening in December. Do not be fooled the pool cannot be used in the winter it is just too cold. We arrived for a 2 nights stay and the pool was at 19’ we pushed the heat button but it only got up to 28’ which isn’t warm enough even for epic photos to try and pretend. My other issue is the heating for the room. The hotel staff let us know that the window should be shut in the evening because there can be mosquitos as we are near the river. However the heating unit in the room can only heat, no air conditioning is available so if you want the upstairs bedroom to be any sort of cool livable temperature you must have the window open at night for air, leading to the choice of air or bugs. We had to leave the window open because heat rises and the upstairs was too hot so we slept with moths that flew in the open window. The upstairs has no ventilation or airflow so once’s it is hot it is hard to cool down. Housekeeping was clean and quick, service was good but there are a lot better deals to be had in Chongqing, the main reason for the low rating is the high price doesn’t match what you are receiving. Paying over 300USD per night I would think it would cover the price to heat the “pool”. I would stay somewhere less expensive with a jacuzzi that can be heated instead of a “pool”. Or maybe check out the less expensive rooms in this hotel with a bathtub bc the hotel itself is very nice, just this specific room was a disappointment for the large price tag. If you’ve read this far do note you need to take the elevator to the 30th floor then a different elevator to the 38th floor for check in then back to your floor which ours was on the 33rd floor. (Multiple elevators are very common in Chongqing hotels. This is no issue for us and doesn’t have to do with the rating- just a quick note how to enter if you do end up staying here.)"

"These are original photos straight from my phone, no filters, and I'm genuinely thrilled with this B&B! It's spotless and hygienic, with a lovely natural wood aesthetic. I particularly enjoyed the round bathtub and the large double bed. They provide disposable bath towels and bath bags, plus there's a mini-fridge, microwave, and a washer-dryer combo. The customer service lady was incredibly attentive, checking in daily to see if I needed anything and always accommodating. I wholeheartedly recommend booking this place with confidence!"

"I chose this place over Jixiang and Fengtang because I thought Xiahaoli would be more picturesque. I arrived on a Sunday afternoon, and Xiahaoli was bustling, which I wasn't quite used to. After dinner, it quieted down again. It rained all night, but I couldn't hear a thing from inside the room; the soundproofing was excellent. When I opened the window in the morning, the air was incredibly fresh. The service was very warm and attentive, with just the right amount of checking in, and they always helped with luggage. If I had to pick one minor flaw, it would be that the fermented rice wine in the Chinese breakfast was very bland. It would be perfect if that could be improved. Overall, the value for money is really high."

"Let's cut to the chase: I stayed from December 27th to January 1st. The room rate was a little over 1,000 RMB per night (excluding breakfast). Personally, I found the value for money to be average. If the price were around 600 RMB, I'd definitely choose this hotel again for my next trip to Chongqing. Facilities: To get here by taxi, set your destination to Fudian Bank. The roadside signs are very clear, so it's easy to find. The hotel's main entrance is surprisingly small, about the same size as a regular room door, which feels a bit underwhelming. My room type was 270° (windows on the east and south sides, offering a diagonal view of Hongyadong). The room layout was very practical: to the left upon entering was the vanity area. The Dyson hairdryer was great, and the square, recessed basin had both hot and cold water. To the right was the restroom; the toilet was a traditional one, not a smart bidet. The shower, however, had an issue: the water temperature was unstable, either too hot or too cold. It took some time to find a comfortable temperature, and this range seemed to shift daily for some unknown reason. There's a partition separating the bed area from the entrance hallway, which creates a good sense of space. The bedding was standard, but the mattress was on the softer side. By the third day, my back started to ache. I'm not sure if it was from all the uphill walking in Chongqing or if the bed was simply too soft for me. Only soft pillows were provided by default; you could request a latex pillow from the front desk, but buckwheat pillows weren't available. The bathtub deserves special praise. It's a double Jacuzzi with six jets and two small lights at the bottom, making for a very relaxing soak. There's a window on the side of the tub, so you won't feel suffocated even after a long soak, and the water temperature, even at its hottest, wasn't scalding, which was perfect. There's a very large area around the tub to place your phone, tablet, or even takeout food and fruit. It would be perfect if there was a bathtub caddy across it. The projector was also quite good. The screen is hidden in the ceiling; lowering it was a bit noisy and took a while, but it was acceptable. Unfortunately, the speaker is integrated into the projector and located in a corner, so the sound is very directional, only coming from one side, which diminishes the viewing experience when lying in bed. Regarding the noise issues I read about in other reviews before checking in, subjectively speaking! My room had four windows. One on the east side (by the bathtub) directly faced the elevated highway. I kept it open while bathing but closed it otherwise, and it didn't affect my sleep. The two south-facing windows were open throughout my stay and didn't cause any disturbance. The bathroom window was also always open. It's certainly not absolutely silent, but it didn't interfere with my sleep. The curtains are electric and integrated, with minimal light leakage during the day, which was acceptable. Of course, there were also some points that left me speechless. First, the hotel has central air conditioning. During my stay, there were two sunny days in Chongqing, and the room temperature was high. There was no way to turn on the cooling function individually. Second, the hotel has a mini-fridge, but it didn't cool! The hotel offered two solutions: one, put anything you want to chill in the bar (which is incredibly inconvenient), or two, call for an ice bucket anytime. That was okay, they usually delivered it within five to ten minutes, but I still couldn't understand why the fridge didn't work. Third, the hotel only provides three complimentary drinks (one Pepsi, one 7UP, one Mirinda) upon check-in. After that, they only replenish regular bottled water daily, so the mini-bar is virtually non-existent (though there is a capsule coffee machine, and capsules are refilled). Service: Overall, there's a lot of room for improvement. There was quite a significant difference in service attitude between daytime and nighttime staff. However, most requests were met. The cleaning staff usually came between 4 PM and 5 PM. The room was very clean, big kudos to the hard-working auntie! There was a small sign in the room listing many useful small items that could be delivered to the room, such as dental floss, insect repellent, and even power strips. I forgot to take pictures, but you can see them in other reviewers' photos; this was a really nice touch. For takeout, if you specify your room number, the delivery person can bring it directly to your door. If you ordered multiple deliveries that didn't arrive simultaneously, the front desk could help wait for all of them and send them up together. Hygiene: I didn't notice any issues; generally good. It's a bit disappointing that the hotel doesn't offer a view of the New Year's Eve drone show; it's obstructed. However, the night view is excellent. Lying in bed with the lights off, gazing at the river view and the bustling traffic outside, was very relaxing."

"My first time visiting Chongqing, and I booked a fantastic apartment – ​​incredibly good value! Located in Yuzhong District, it's very close to Jiefangbei, just a few minutes' walk away. The surroundings are quiet, so it won't disturb my sleep. Getting around by taxi is very convenient; trips to Nan'an and Beiqu districts only cost around ten yuan. The room was large, clean, and hygienic, with disposable towels. It was spacious enough for two people and could comfortably accommodate four. The service was excellent, and the housekeeper was very attentive. You can ask the housekeeper about nearby restaurants and local specialties. I highly recommend the noodle shops nearby – they're amazing! I'd definitely book again next time."
