We had an amazing experience at 0517 Inn. The hotel was completely renovated last year (2017) and packed with modern comforts and extremely clean. The value of this hotel is outstanding! For any Westerner (or Chinese), this would be the ideal hotel to stay near Huangshan. The staff was exceptional, always courteous and very helpful. Upon arrival you will get a map and suggestions on how to explore Huangshan in one day or more. Communication in English was very impressive in fact, and my companions who did not speak Mandarin, felt comfortable communicating with two of the senior staff. Access to the hotel can be arranged with the staff prior to arrival. You can grab a taxi or bus from Huangshan bei (north) train station, or you can arrange for personal car service via the hotel for a few dollars more. Since we arrived on the last train for the night, we felt extremely comforted when met by our driver at the train station. I highly recommend staying at 0517 Inn, you will be so happy that you did!
