“ Ok, there is both good and bad with this Hotel. Let's start out with the good. The price was good. The room was clean. The room looked nice. The décor was nice. The view from the Balcony in my room was nice, but the view really depended on the weather. if the weather was bad, you could not see the mountains and were just stuck seeing other buildings It had hot water and decent water pressure. The staff was nice but spoke no English.
Now for the Bad: On hotels.com, the map shows……
“Gorgeous property have stayed here twice already:) super close to the national park. most staff is v helpful and professional. Yummy food. Perfect views. Love the pool. It’s in the woods so expect some insects but totally understandable. ”
“Our stay at Pandora Vista Retreat was truly exceptional. The hotel offered outstanding service, going above and beyond to accommodate all our needs. Surrounded by breathtaking views, the location was both peaceful and picturesque. Linda, our main contact before arrival, was incredibly helpful in ensuring we reached the resort safely. During our stay, Winnie, the resort staff and English translator, was always available and attentive, making sure everything ran smoothly. We couldn’t have asked……
“We visited the hotel in off season so we have to expect that it is not up to full operation. I believe we were on two guests in this 900 plus room resort. The assistant manager was so helpful to us with researching things to do and places to eat in the area which made things much easier. The rooms were big and comfortable so no complaints there. I took advantage of the inexpensive in-house massages. Easy to get around using Didi. Would probably stay here again. ”
“My wife and I had a wonderful amazing stay at this property. This B&B is nestled in a quiet, friendly, clean and hospitable little village within a 10 minute walk to the 'Middle' Gate of the Zhangjiajie Forest National Park. The location is made even more peaceful by the mountains and open meadow facing the poolside of the property. It is located away from direction of where all the tour buses would usually turn to drop off tourists near the park entrance.

“I was a little skeptical when booking this stay due to a lack of review availability. I was later told that this was their first time on Expedia. That being said, I’m very glad to have booked this stay. Mr. Wang did a great job, he was always available, did his best to give recommendations and communicate. He even made sure that I ate and was comfortable. I stayed in tent 2 which had a gorgeous view. This was a perfect place to stay for a few nights stay, but even if you wanted to stay longer……
“It was the most frustrating hotel for years of my experience. Which is 50 countries, 180 cities, over 300 hotels. No telephone, iron, TV set in the room. It is very cold in the whole motel. Only two rooms were occupied inc ours. Cheapest sleepers one can imagine. Meal was better in chinese university, where i studied 30 years ago. Dead bird and cigarettes at balcony. Extremely cold in bathroom and no privacy from living room. Pictures on Hotels.com are nice and starring high but in reality it is……
“This is a very good B&B. You can taste the local specialties, and the housekeeper is very attentive and considerate. The environment of the B&B is very beautiful. You can see the whole mountain view from the room, and there are many cats and dogs, which are very cute. Highly recommended!”
"Great... The boss (Mr. Li) is very helpful and super friendly... He will help you arrange the itinerary and tickets for all the scenic spots in the plan... Ask him everything... He will try his best to help you."

Ken, the Duty Manager, and his staff were extremely helpful in recommending routes to take to make the best use of the four-day pass into the Park. He helped us book and buy tickets and arrange transport to and back from the other sites in Zhangjiajie. I was able to understand his English enough to find my way to the best views of the Park.
My wife and I highly recommend this property and mainly because of the service from Ken and his staff.
Enjoy your stay!"
