Deqin Guyu Huating Inn

We stayed in Yubeng during a week when access to the village was closed, and we were the only guests at the hotel. It’s located near the trailhead to Ice Lake and not too far from Lower Yubeng and the Sacred Waterfall (the return hike is steep, but anyone coming to this place should be prepared for long and demanding walks!). There was no room service during our stay (like trash collection), but the hosts were friendly, and the food at the restaurant was very tasty and fairly priced — especially considering the logistical challenges of stocking the kitchen. The room is simple but comfortable. The towels are disposable, which is a bit strange at first, but you get used to it (they actually dry you well). The view from the hotel balcony is unbelievable — definitely worth paying extra for a room with a view. We would happily stay there again.

They gave me a free room upgrade to a room with a nicer view when I said I wanted to take photos of the stars at night! Staff are really friendly and the food at it's restaurant is affordable and nice! They also operate a supermarket right beside their hotel which is very convenient & a bar with nice cocktails if you fancy a drink! Would recommend!

We stayed here for three nights whilst exploring upper Yubeng and doing some of the hikes. The location is great with some good panoramic views of the mountains. Sunset and sunrise are both amazing from here! The service was good, friendly staff and kind people. The room is fine! We had a heater which helped a lot for the cold nights. We didn't like the disposable towels, such a waste! Also the room wasn't cleaned once in our three nights and we had to keep asking for toilet paper/towels ourselves. Apart from that everything was fine. Good vegetarian food too:)

My room was as described. Functional and nice and warm (with heating on) with an excellent hot shower and nice wooden wall beams. The people who run the place are lovely and also offer nice breakfast options in the morning. The only small note I have is that (despite best efforts and a very modern ventilation system in the bathroom) the bathroom is already moldy. I understand that it's a challenge to get under control given the climate. I would stay again next time, and actually spend more than just one night here. There is so much you can explore here!

Great place to stay while hiking. Nice comfortable beds, hot water, electric blankets. Only had disposable towels in my room. Good food in the kitchen also! And hiking poles to borrow (would recommend taking hiking poles to Glacier Lake, not as necessary for the waterfall). GREAT VIEW.

Clean and tidy rooms staff very friendly and helpful rooms have nice views of the mountains
