This service suite apartment hotel right next to local populated area sihao square 世豪广场. Going to leshan buddha is about 10-20mins away. Going to suji ancient village (苏稽古镇) is about the same distance. Going to high speed rail station is just stone throw away, about 5mins. From there, going to emei mountain is just a short train ride. During my stay the reception xiao yang (小杨)was very helpful. Making my trip a pleasant one.
Beautiful hotel. Rooms are clean and odor free. Staff was nice, one speaks fluent English which was useful. Chinese breakfast with noodles, egg, chia something and rice and dumpling (just let her know if you want it spicy or not, or without meat).
K1 bus is 10 minutes walk to the junction, it takes you to the Buddha area.
601 bus should be across the street to Emeishan (but probably moved due to construction, just take the 9 3-4 stops down) payable in cash.
Internet was ok, a bit weak a night
There are calligraphy sets in every floor. And good tea..
The city of Leshan was one of our favorite stops during our trip to China. We went to see the Giant Buddha, and it was absolutely amazing—definitely a must-see, especially from the boat view.
Our hotel room had a stunning view that honestly didn’t even compare to the pictures. It was even better in person. The toilet alone was next-level! It was pretty cold when we visited in March, but the overall experience made up for it.
The staff was incredibly kind and welcoming, and the breakfast buffet was delicious. We paid about $60 USD for one of the best views, and that price also included a buffet breakfast for two people, which made it an even better deal.
They also had two small washer machines available. I believe they offered detergent, but we chose to use our own. The only downside is that there’s no traditional dryer—just a heated drying cabinet. You can only hang about five pieces of clothing at a time, and it takes around 1.5 hours to dry. We ended up hanging some of our clothes in the laundry room, and the staff was kind enough to rotate them for us while we were out for the day.
Before traveling to China, I highly recommend downloading WeChat (for communication), Alipay (for payments), and Didi (like Uber). Not everyone speaks English, but many people will communicate with you through WeChat, which was super helpful.
We also paid for a half-day extension for about $15. Our original room was already booked, so they gave us a smaller room, but it allowed us to enjoy our day and come back to shower and get ready before heading to Chengdu.
If you plan on shopping, Leshan is one of the cheapest places to do it. We bought two large suitcases for $17 and $18. They were basic plastic with a simple key lock, but they did the job—we made it all the way back to Los Angeles with them. One wheel did fall off after the flight, but honestly, it was still worth it. We didn’t want to spend money on expensive luggage for a one-time use.
There’s a store about a five-minute walk away—it’s like a colorful, open-style dollar store where you can just walk right in.
Overall, the staff and experience were amazing. I would absolutely stay here again.
Lovely hotel for my wife birthday, there was a bath and my my wife enjoy a long bath after a long day walking around the giant Buddha. Great location to do everything. Breakfast was ok, to us it could have been hotter, it is more a Chinese breakfast witch is ok. That is what we come for. But at our age now I can't have alot of spice.... coffee was not anything special, these are just little things. The staff was very helpful on the last night as my wife got her phone nick and needed to use laptop. It took some time to explain what we needed to do. But got there in the end. Would i say there again. YES
Great stay. Staff is wonderful. Rooms are big and clean. Wanda Plaza next to the hotel is great with many eateries in and around the hotel. Breakfast is good. A shout out to Ms Chow, she hailed 2 taxis for us at the intersection to the high speed rail station in the blazing sun, very helpful and friendly. Thank you.
