Yunshuiheju Homestay (Zhangjiajie National Forest Park Scenic Area Store)

We had an excellent time at Yunshuiheju Homestay. The hotel is located inside the Zhangjiajie park, near the west gate. The owners were very friendly, patient and helpful throughout our stay. We had breakfast and diner everyday at the hotel and the food was always delicious (I strongly recommend the eggplant dish). We tried the traditional savoury breakfast with noodles, eggs and tomatoes but we were also offered the option of a sweet breakfast with soft bread and fruits. The room was spacious with comfortable beds and a large TV. A washing machine is at disposal on the ground floor. On the day of arrival, we took a cab from the Zhangjiajie train station (about 50 minutes) and the owners picked us up at the west gate. The next day, we went together to validate our entrance tickets. The hostess recommended an itinerary for our 2 days in the park in order to see all main areas. It was very convenient to stay in the park overnight and we skipped the queue to re-enter on the next days. The hotel is located about 10 minutes away by foot from the Yangjiajie cable car. On our last day, the owners offered to drive us back to the Zhangjiajie train station for a good price, which was very convenient.

My experience overall is very positive. The location is ideal, a minute drive from one of the cable ways to the park's main sights. You can see the mountain peaks just by walking outside the door and appreciate a beautiful view from the window in the room. The gentleman and lady of the house are very friendly and helpful, driving you to the cable stations and helping to navigate the park. And the food is honestly amazing, and also affordable for such a premium location. All in all I would definitely recommend it.

I was a bit nervous traveling to Zhangjiajie alone as a foreigner, but the service I had at this homestay allowed me to have a very good time. The accommodation was very clean, close to the Yangjiajie cable car which is very convenient. I was not sure which places to visit as I only had one day, but the owner sent me a detailed itinerary easy to follow that allowed me to truly enjoy various sides of the national park. He even adapted it when I went the wrong way lol. All the staff were very nice, they even drove me to the cable car when it opened so I could go a second day, and drove me back to the train station for a good price. The food was also very good, I recommend the mapo tofu for dinner, it was excellent! Overall a very good place to stay if you want to enjoy Zhangjiajie, and in addition avoid the flow of people coming from the other side of the park. +the view from the hallway is amazing!

這個房間是在張家界森林公園西門景區內，我們是從楊家界索道每天來回玩的，本來在網上買了票，老闆的侄子説提前購買可以優惠，我就退了，在他這裏訂的，我買的是3索1梯多程票，價格比網上便宜幾十，省錢了，滿意。我們是自駕去玩的，當天下午3點多到，到了景區西門口，聯繫民宿的老闆，他幫我們買完票，然後把我們帶進去，住在景區內的好處就是，衹需要第1次預約門票，第2天第3天在景區內逛，就不需要再次預約，這點很方便，遺憾就是住在了西門，可能不能去東門或者南門外面看看了，説是有個標誌性的吊腳樓，這個自己可以權衡一下，還有一個好處就是十一期間，人流高峯期基本不排隊，或者排隊時間短，整體玩的景點都一樣，節約了時間。再説説民宿吧，這個是在攜程網上看的，覺得品質不錯，就又續住了一晚，整個房間比較大，也比較乾淨，衞生間裏有一次性面巾紙和一次性浴巾，還有一次性馬桶墊兒，比較衞生。那個吃飯呢，早飯是在民宿家吃的， 15元一個人管飽，下午爬完山回來，又在他們家吃的晚飯，可以提前點菜，味道不錯，尤其那個土家臘肉，超出預期。買東西呢，老闆家自己有個超市，價格比景區內稍微便宜一點，去爬山買點東西比較方便，畢竟在景區內賣東西的不多。最後最後就是晚上回來很累，想把衣服洗了，他們外面有露台，可以晾衣服，這點我覺得比較好。

民宿在景區裏面，看樣子很新，裝修的也很好，第一次進景區裏面了之後不需要二次預約，值得推薦的理由有以下幾點： 1、 老闆可以幫你叫順風車，從張家界西站直接把你拉走，民宿下午到的不需要買門票，第二天才需要買。 2、 老闆也可以幫你買優惠門票，比自己買一個人要優惠幾十塊，民宿有小小超市，還有早晚餐。 3、 老闆還可以免費提供攻略，贈送手繪地圖，最後要走的那一天可以辦理行李託運 非常方便 4、 從景區裏面到南門也很近，坐8分鐘的車 ，步行10分鐘就到達黃石寨索道下站，如果是從景區外那就比較遠了。

酒店到景區裏面，乾淨衞生。距離索道兩分鐘不到，門口就是景區免費環保車經過的地方，在門口可以上車，回來也在門口下車，第二天老闆給我安排的從東門出景區，所有精華景點都有安排，非常好！
