Wyndham Chongqing Yuelai Hotel

The price of over 400 including breakfast for two is really friendly. I stayed for a few nights with my mother without feeling the pinch. The hotel is located in Yuelai, which is a forty-minute drive from the city center. To be honest, the scenery along the road before reaching the hotel from the airport is a bit desolate, but once you get to the hotel, hmm, it's really nice. Situated by the Jialing River, away from the hustle and bustle of the crowd, you can take a walk in the morning along the trail separated by a road, where the air is very fresh. It contrasts sharply with the crowded city attractions, suitable for friends who prefer a slower pace. It's also a good choice for those who need to catch an early flight. The hotel offers a variety of pillows to choose from. I wanted the lavender pillow which was out of stock, but the concierge was considerate enough to send a lavender sachet and spray as a substitute. The balcony view is nice. Chongqing's weather is changeable, and in just a few days, not only did I enjoy the river view and the rain, but also the unobstructed, crystal-clear thunder and lightning, worthy of the suburbs. When it rains, the balcony is swarmed with insects, so a high alert for those who are afraid of bugs. The breakfast variety is average, not so good among five-star hotels, and eating it for several days in a row can get tiresome. I think the best part of breakfast is the freshly baked waffles, which are simply perfect with chocolate sauce. My mother thinks the best is Chongqing noodles, but I think without the spicy (my mother can't eat spicy), this is at best braised noodles (?) My favorite part of staying at a hotel is the bathing session, of course, each time before soaking, I have to do the hard work of thoroughly cleaning the bathtub. I've hardly ever stayed in a bathtub that was cleaned well enough before check-in, even though I'm not a clean freak, even though I've only stayed in five-star hotels... Wyndham is no exception, still found unidentified hairs Wyndham has a 'Wyndham Rewards Program' where you can take advantage of a free night after staying for 3 nights at their series of hotels, but it can only be booked through the hotel's official channels.
