No.5 Valley Lodge

Lovely and homely stay at the lodge. We were pleasantly upgraded to a cabin room which we loved. Rain was extremely welcoming and helped us with all our luggage and even brought out a heater to our room as soon as we asked. Great communication, amazing location for the Zhangjaijei mountains, and Rain even dropped us and picked us up. There is a tea master as well who makes home made teas and some cute pets. Truly feels like a lovely family run cosy home. Would definitely recommend!

The staff was great as well the facilities

Had a great 2 night stay while visiting the park in ZJJ. Such a peaceful and beautiful area, clean room, and great food. Rain was a big help by routing us through the park to avoid the crowds.

The guys on reception were so helpful and friendly and spoke very good English. Free drop off to park entrance, 5 mins away and would pick us up as arranged on WeChat. Lovely and peaceful place to stay, extremely comfortable rooms, bed etc and shower had great pressure…..a real favourite in a hotel for us.

From check-in to check-out, the service was nothing short of exceptional. Frankie went above and beyond to make our stay both phenomenal and effortless. Thanks to his help, arranging transportation and securing tickets for attractions was completely stress-free—I didn’t have to worry about a thing.The room and lodge were absolutely stunning and truly one of a kind. The ambiance and cozy atmosphere were unlike anywhere I’ve ever stayed. Both breakfast and dinner were delicious, and after a day full of walking and exploring, relaxing in the infinity pool after a great meal felt surreal.The entire staff was incredibly kind and helpful, and I can’t thank Frankie enough for making our experience genuinely unforgettable!

Unreal stay — a hidden gem in Zhangjiajie! We had an amazing two-night stay at No.5 Valley Lodge, and Frankie and the team went above and beyond to look after us. They arranged our airport and train station transfers seamlessly, and the complimentary shuttle to the national park entrance was super convenient. Dinner each night was lovely — simple but tasty — and the lodge itself has an incredible ambience: peaceful, natural, and slightly rustic in the best way. Our room was absolutely sublime, spacious, and beautifully designed. The Wi-Fi was a little slow, but honestly, that only added to the charm — it’s the perfect place to disconnect and unwind. Frankie speaks excellent English, which made communication effortless. He even helped us plan our route through Zhangjiajie National Park and came to the rescue when we got lost! It’s not close to the city, but that’s part of what makes it so special — you’re surrounded by nature and tranquility. Highly recommend staying here before the area gets overrun by Western tourists. A truly unforgettable experience!

Wonderful stay for our honeymoon. Very conveniently located to the Zhangjiajie national park, delicious food, beautiful refreshing pool, great sound system and music taste and the kindest staff, especially Frankie and the tea master! We thoroughly recommend this stay.

Super unique stay in Zhang Jia Jie! 1000/10 recommend if you are visiting. Food was delicious, hospitality was amazing, Frankie was really helpful and kind. The rooms and atmosphere is very relaxing and zen, there’s a beautiful infinity pool and another pool. Lots of activities and a tea master at the hotel was one of a kind !

I recently just went on a big China trip and visited the beautiful Zhangjiajie region. Staying at No. 5 Valley was an incredible experience. The host Frankie was super helpful and hospitable. The property is in a very scenic, remote area. Around 1 hour from Zhangjiajie Train Station. The food options were vast and very accommodative and the resort. Had several activities going on throughout the day. Arts and crafts, tea ceremonies and much more. I really enjoyed my stay and I'm looking forward to coming back. This is an excellent place to stay and highly recommend it for anyone looking for a great place to stay in Zhangjiajie. Accessibility to the Zhangjiajie park is about 10 mins away and about 1 hour from the Tianmenshan park. The hotel provides transportation for anywhere you need to go in Zhangjiajie. Highly recommend for anyone looking to have an amazing experience at a beautiful stay in Zhangjiajie

It was a very memorable stay for our family here. The view was exceptional. The best part about our stay is having Frankie coordinate everything for us from pick up at train station, dinning, tickets to Zhangjaijei National park to the ins and outs of the area. He went above and beyond to make sure our stay was comfortable and enjoyable. The staff were very accommodating. I would love to stay here again next time I visit.

This is a fantastic secluded hotel, with amazing friendly service, it was. 1 hr ride from the airport but less than200rmb in a taxi, well worth the effort as the location is stunning and the service first class

The place is amazing! So beautiful and the staff is great! The food is farm to table , the food is really good. You can bake your own cookies and we had the best tea experience I have gone to tea houses in Japan and this lady , her tea which she makes herself is one of the best teas I ever tried. And I love tea. I will definitely vibe back if I have the opportunity. Spectacular views of the mountains and sunsets . Also you can walk around . I definitely recommended .

The hotel is located in a mountain with beautiful scenery. Rooms have the

It was a most interesting property set in a tropical surrounding. The grounds are like a park with beautiful views. Food is very good.

Wonderful experience with Frankie and team! Amazing views, amazing rooms. Highly recommend.

Nestled amongst the mountains of Zhangjiajie lies the coziest, warmest hotel featuring a world class act in Frankie (who coordinated ALL of our activities with a friendly smile), delicious breakfast and dinner - and views that are worth a million bucks. We had a blast here and highly recommend this place for all future travelers - especially if you’re here to spend time at the National Parks.

Our 5-night stay at No.5 Valley Resort in mid-March 2025 was truly remarkable, thanks in large part to the exceptional hospitality and personalized service provided by the entire staff, especially the Manager, Rain, & tea master, Yang Mei. From the moment we arrived, Rain ensured our stay was seamless & enjoyable, demonstrating a genuine commitment to guest satisfaction. He went above & beyond to provide us with all the information we needed to explore the Wulingyuan National Park, even helping us purchase tickets & offering insider tips to make our visit truly memorable. The beautiful & elegant Yang Mei made our experience even more special, treating my husband & me like old friends. Her calligraphy lessons were both engaging & inspiring, while her vast knowledge of tea allowed us to appreciate the delicate flavors and nuances of each variety she prepared for us. We will always cherish the thoughtful gifts she bestowed upon us. After 2 days of exploring the stunning landscapes of Wulingyuan National Park, we were able to unwind and rejuvenate at the resort for the remainder of our stay. The serene atmosphere and picturesque surroundings allowed us to connect with nature, breathe in the fresh air, and truly relax. To anyone seeking a remarkable getaway filled with warmth, hospitality, and unforgettable experiences, No.5 Valley Resort is the perfect choice. We cannot thank Rain, Yang Mei, and the entire staff enough for making our visit so memorable and cannot wait to return.

Great place to stay when visiting the national park and looking for a more remote accommodation in the mountains. Well arranged transfers to the park’s entrance. Thanks Frankie and Rain for the good service.

Beautiful property and amazing hospitality. We were only here for 2 nights but felt right at home. Frankie took care of everything even before we arrived to Zhangjiajie and arranged for our entire trip from start to finish, including daily transport in and out of the park, and our wonderful dinner one of the nights. We even sang karaoke on our last night. Its a lot of fun! I highly recommend if anyone is considering. The west entrance is also quiet and away from the crowds for a quiet retreat.

We had a wonderful time at No. 5 from beginning to end. Our room was spacious, very comfortable and modern whilst being right in nature. We were very well looked after by the staff especially Frankie who went above and beyond every day even helping us organise trips and buy tickets and driving us to the entrance of the national park. He was even on hand over Alipay chat to answer questions we had whilst on day trips. Frankie’s dog was also very sweet and warmly greeted us whenever she saw us :) Yama served us wonderful tea and was fascinating to speak to. Overall we really enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this place. The surrounding area is amazing and we so enjoyed the national park, ancient town and “Grand Canyon”.
