Wansheng Vacations from $1,018

This is a great hotel with a beautiful view

Pros: the grounds are stunningly beautiful. The views are incredible of downtown Chongqing. Out suite was large and clean and well appointed. Extremely close to the cable car terminal. Good food walking distance in all directions. Cons: service was iffy and inconsistent. Food onsite is limited and not very good. Overall: expensive but worth it if visiting Chongqing.

The stay was okay. The hotel was okay. The staff were not very helpful in communication pre-stay, and no text based messaging service with staff was offered during the stay, which would’ve been very helpful considering they didn’t speak much English. In-person, the staff were as helpful as they could be. The breakfast was good. The housekeepers did a good job of organising and cleaning. The room was quite dated but clean, and lacked the modern facilities we found in other Chinese hotels. The air conditioning worked but not well - the heat was kept at bay but barely, it struggled to get below 23C most days (despite having set it to 17C or whatever the lowest was). The air conditioner fan was very noisy to the point where I wore earplugs at night. We wouldn’t stay here again. I think there are much better options in Chongqing.
