Hotel Romantic di Jilin, China

We had a great time at Wanda Vista. The room was beautiful and comfortable. Service was always very friendly and 小袁 was very attentive to all our requests. The location is prime, right next to many major attractions. We would definitely recommend!

This hotel truly goes above and beyond, paying meticulous attention to detail. You'll find fresh flowers in the lobby. While the guest rooms are small, they are immaculately clean. Breakfast was incredibly varied and plentiful, offering everything from fresh fruits and vegetables to dumplings and cakes. I was extremely satisfied; they've clearly put a lot of thought and effort into making guests comfortable. The only drawbacks are the limited space and the air conditioner in the room which blows directly onto the bed. Also, at 399 during peak season, the price isn't particularly cheap.

I booked this room for my friends, and it was their family's first time visiting Northeast China. They were absolutely delighted with their stay! My friend specifically told me to make sure I left a great review for the hotel. She mentioned how bright and welcoming the lobby was as soon as they walked in, and the service was excellent – they were even offered water upon arrival. The room was very warm, and the breakfast spread was incredibly varied; the kids ate so much they were stuffed! They said they'll definitely stay here again next time they come to the Northeast.

Our New Year's Eve stay here was fantastic. Martina at the front desk was incredibly warm and helpful, assisting us with the hotel map, and other staff even brought us matches in the evening. Breakfast was also excellent; the restaurant manager, Chen Xin, helped us to our seats, providing superb service. The hotel gym and swimming pool are both great, and the courtyard view from our king room was lovely! We'll definitely choose this hotel again in the future!

The front desk staff were incredibly sweet, especially Zhang Ting and Xiao Hou, who made check-in and check-out super fast and even upgraded our room! The ski-in/ski-out access was incredibly convenient, and the complimentary cable car tickets took us straight to the mountaintop. Our room was wonderfully warm, and soaking in a bath with a snowy view after skiing was absolute perfection. The breakfast was delicious, and the attention to detail in the service was impeccable. This truly lives up to its five-star rating; we'll definitely be back!

Service: The butler-style service was excellent. Our butlers, Shanqiu and Songyue, were always available to answer questions and replied quickly. They were very prompt in resolving issues and proactively asked about our itinerary to remind us and help book shuttle buses for our outings. Facilities: While the hotel's hardware might not be the absolute newest, unlike some of the smart hotels under HUAZHU, the rooms are spacious, and all basic amenities meet travel needs. The housekeeping was very clean. The cleaning lady was incredibly warm and humorous and met our requests very promptly. Regarding our package benefits: Our hotel package was essentially all-inclusive, except for Changbai Mountain entrance tickets, main meals, and other personalized expenses. The hotel has a cute pet park where you can feed deer and a snow park for kids to play in. Our package also included skiing and snowmobiling experiences. The facilities at Heping Ski Resort were quite good, and it wasn't crowded when we went. We hired a coach for our child, while the adults just took photos. We even got to play in the powder snow on the snowmobiles, which felt quite worthwhile. Dining: For our main meals, we primarily ate at the Chinese restaurant on the second floor and the buffet restaurant on the first floor. Here, the service was definitely better than the food. The ingredients were clean and fresh, and taste is subjective. The prices were typical for a hotel of this caliber. The Chinese restaurant specializes in fresh ingredients from Northeast China and Changbai Mountain, offering ginseng and venison. Coming from a region with bolder flavors, we found it a bit too bland. The first-floor buffet offered Brazilian BBQ and small hot pots, both with normal flavors, and you could certainly eat your fill. Hot Springs: This truly deserves praise! Crown members could simply go downstairs in their bathrobes and swimsuits to enjoy the hot springs an unlimited number of times. Our child, who stayed for three days, went three times. It felt amazing to soak after hiking and skiing. The service inside the hot springs was also great; they provided free anti-slip socks for children and waterproof phone pouches. There were also snacks available at reasonable prices. In summary, the service is commendable. For those who want a worry-free and excellent experience, I highly recommend it!

I really want to give this place a big shout-out. It's just a three-minute walk from the resort, and there's plenty of parking downstairs. The rooms feel like a boutique hotel or guesthouse, with front and back balconies that both offer great mountain views – truly lovely! The breakfast, while not as varied as a big hotel's, is clearly made with a lot of care and thought. During our stay, my child got hurt and we couldn't drive that evening. I contacted the front desk, and they immediately helped us call a taxi. When I came downstairs with my child, I saw the owner frantically on the phone. I was so anxious at the time that I didn't express my gratitude, so I sincerely thank the owner here 🙏 Songhua Lake was great, and Yunlu was great too. We'll definitely be back next year!

The hotel was very comfortable, with two pillow types to choose from. Because it's a Republican-era building, I initially thought it would be dated, but upon arrival, I discovered that only the exterior was dated; the interior was very modern! I immediately canceled my previous reservation for another hotel and booked this one the very night I checked in! The room had Xiaodu, and hahahahahaha, I've discovered I really enjoy using Xiaodu; this little AI is so convenient for everyday life. The hotel staff were very welcoming and provided excellent service; I give them a thumbs-up! A few negative points: the shower head in the bathroom was so high that even a short person could barely reach it. I had to ask the front desk several times to raise it while showering; the height was incredibly inconvenient.

Transitioning from the Wanda Hyatt to this hotel was like moving from hell to heaven. The price was comparable (even 100 cheaper), yet everything, from service to amenities, was vastly superior. Upon entering the room, we found honey tea already brewed in a thermos and a beautifully arranged fruit platter. (They provide different nightly tea drinks and fresh fruit daily throughout your stay, featuring local specialties like peaches and blueberries.) The in-room coffee and tea selection were elevated by several notches, and we even received a small jar of linden honey (it was so delicious, I ended up buying some!). In the evenings, the lobby bar offered complimentary beverages and alcoholic drinks. The Hyatt, on the other hand, only had a selection of chargeable snacks and drinks, with common fruits like apples and bananas only available on the day of check-in. The hot spring pools here offer an unbeatable view, and the overall hot spring environment is fantastic. We even spotted several chipmunks! Going in the afternoon meant there was hardly anyone around, allowing us to take photos freely. The Wanda's summer hot springs, however, were a stark contrast – it was like a sardine can, with people crammed around every pool, and a 2-3 person queue for each shower (though strangely, the men's showers had no queues). Given that this hotel is less crowded, we were always able to snag a lovely window seat for breakfast. The breakfast spread was incredibly refined, featuring delicacies like shrimp dumplings, siu mai, soup dumplings, chicken feet, spare ribs, and large prawns. They also offered different noodle dishes daily, including Tonkotsu ramen. The soy milk and various porridges were significantly superior to the mass-produced options often found elsewhere. While the sheer variety might not match that of bustling, queue-heavy hotels like the Hyatt, it absolutely triumphs in terms of quality! This hotel provides a full set of children's amenities, including adorable slippers, bathrobes, and even kid-friendly body lotion. In stark contrast, the Hyatt only offered children's slippers and bathrobes (during my multi-day stay, one day they even missed the bathrobe entirely), with absolutely no other provisions – even the toothbrushes provided were adult-sized. The shuttle service here is excellent: a private car and dedicated driver for each family. They were also very helpful with luggage, and the timing was always perfect – we'd just finish exploring the area and the car would be ready to pick us up. If I were forced to find a fault, it would be that the flooring in some areas felt a bit old and had a tendency to creak.

Location is good, near to most of the tourist attractions. Only bad side for me is that their bath towels stink of cigarettes smell, and the walls are pretty thin. First 3 nights into my stay was good, the last 2 days was terrible as a family checked in beside my room, made so much noise and the thin walls could not block those sounds. Anyone who is a light sleeper please do not come here.
