The Xihai

Xihai Hotel

Huang Shan, China

Located at the foot of Danxia Peak, Xihai Hotel boasts one of the best positions near the summit of Huang Shan and close to the entrance to Xihai Grand Valley. This makes it an ideal base from which to explore the various trails that lead to scenic viewing platforms. The hotel’s location also provides easy access to the best places to view the sunrise, sunset and the sea of clouds.

With 180 guest rooms, multiple restaurants, a bar and coffee shop it has more than adequate facilities for a comfortable stay up in the mountains.

OUR OPINION:

The Xihai Hotel is the best hotel available at the summit of Huang Shan. Due to the difficulties in taking building materials to the top, guest rooms are simple but comfortable and we feel are adequate for an overnight stay.
