"Very clean room and comfortable stay. Great location – close to the park entrance and many restaurants. The host arranged a pickup from the station for us, and the communication was smooth.

"Stunning Grand Hotel quality for a fraction of 5Star price.
Just NOT to look for it on DiDi by name, only by address:
Avatar Valley Grand Hotel is actually “ Zhangjiajie Country Garden Phoenix Hotel”
We had luck with a friendly DiDi driver that helped us and called their local number to verify location.
Breakfast buffet room looks like an Opera House.
Swimming Pools are huge.
Not crowded at all for the 1400 rooms available. Late August, maybe seeemed maybe 10% occupied. Amazingly helpful Staff...

"The location was very close to everything. The staff were super nice and helpful. Nice variety on breakfast. Love that it had free laundry. The room did have like a slight smell of cigarette and stale room smell but after a few hours with the ac on it went away."
"This is the hardest hotel for me to rate in this trip. The woman who runs it was lovely, and I was offered a free upgrade. The room was huge and spotlessly clean, and the location couldn’t be better, with plenty of restaurants and bars nearby.
However, I had some issues with the practical side of my stay. Given that visiting the mountain in the park is the main reason people come to this town, more flexibility with check-out would be helpful. The man at reception refused to let me use a bathroom after I had checked out. Also, a family member was smoking inside the reception area, as this is a family-run hotel.
Despite the positives, I’m not sure this is the best place to stay if you’re visiting solely for the mountain, which I imagine is the case for most tourists."
"The staff were super helpful, offered to help with tours, they also offered to take my bags to the room. Room was spotless, they have a massage area, pool and Gym and more importantly for me a convenience store. I would definitely visit again"
"We had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The personal butler service was excellent. Our butler helped us arrange park tickets, laundry, and our daily itinerary, which made everything so easy and convenient. The hotel was modern with rooms equipped with latest technology. It was just a short walk to the east entrance of Zhangjiajie National Forest Park."
"The owner have an excellent service to customer felt like family. They are very accommodating helpful in anyway. I really enjoy my stay from the start to the last day of my stay. Highly recommended."
"We had room 301. Amazing views but the treadmill didn't work. The room was very clean and had a nice platform to drink tea and enjoy the views. There is also a jacuzzi to enjoy. The room is very big and spacious."
"We truly enjoyed our stay at Zhangjiajie National Park Nvue Resorts. The location is fantastic—peaceful and relaxed, yet incredibly close to the park’s Middle Gate. Right behind the property, there are lovely walking and hiking paths that lead to scenic rice fields, local coffee shops, and restaurants. At the same time, it is highly convenient for visiting downtown and other top attractions like 72 Qilou and Huanglong Cave. The hotel's restaurant is also excellent, serving traditional local Tujia food that you absolutely must try at least once during your stay.
What sets this resort apart is the flawless customer service. The staff speaks excellent English, and we were able to seamlessly communicate with them via WeChat both before and during our stay to answer any questions. Since we were only visiting for the weekend, we hired Robert as our park guide for a day. He did an amazing job tailoring the itinerary to our preferences and ensuring we got the full Zhangjiajie experience in a short timeframe. For the rest of the weekend, he went above and beyond acting as our informal concierge—suggesting great local spots to eat and visit, arranging tickets, and offering advice that made our stay unforgettable. We will definitely be back!"
