Reviews from Real Guests:

Guest User: I went to the Air Grassland to book a parent-child room at the Huazhong Hotel. The children liked it very much. However, after a heavy rain changed the plan, I needed to stay for an extra night.

shxjing: After climbing Baishi Mountain and staying here, I was upgraded to a suite. The hotel has a good environment and convenient parking. Shang Xiao at the front desk was very quiet, check in was quick and took us to our room. After checking in, I went to the hot spring, which was good. The breakfast was good, varied and tasted good.
