You hardly need to waste time traveling far. If you plan to visit Tianmen Mountain, this is the perfect place. The room is spacious, clean, and new. It looks simple but complete. The bed is soft and comfortable. I slept well all night. It has all the amenities that are standard for the Hilton group. Another thing I like is the breakfast. It is very filling. There are many choices of Chinese and Western food. It tastes delicious. I am recharged and ready to travel all day. Overall, it is a good value hotel.

Hampton by Hilton Zhangjiajie Tianmen Mountain 📍Hampton by Hilton Zhangjiajie is located in the city center, right across from the Tianmen Mountain Cableway, and is the closest mid-to-high-end hotel to the Tianmen Mountain Scenic Area. 🏨 The hotel is also only 800 meters from Zhangjiajie Railway Station and Bus Station, so it is in a great location and is the best choice for visiting Tianmen Mountain. 🥰 Hampton by Hilton is the largest hotel brand under Hilton. 🧐 Hilton hotels are currently located in 119 countries and regions around the world, so its brand and service are trustworthy, and I booked this hotel based on this trust. 😉 As soon as we arrived at the hotel, a porter helped us with our luggage, the front desk staff warmly welcomed us, someone served us hot tea, and they even upgraded our room for free. We could see the Tianmen Mountain cableway from our room, and the room was as clean and comfortable as always. 🏨 The hotel breakfast is very rich, and I like the fried noodles and noodle soup the most. The hotel also has a self-service laundry room and drying equipment, which is very considerate and surprising. 📝 In short, this is a cost-effective hotel, and you might as well choose to stay here when you come to Zhangjiajie!

It is only five kilometers from the airport to the hotel, and the check-in process is very smooth. There are many restaurants, travel agencies, convenience stores, and fruit shops downstairs. The hotel rooms are spacious and well-arranged, with floor-to-ceiling windows next to the bathtub. Outside the window is Dayong Road, and across the road is the lower station of the Tianmen Mountain cableway.
