<h2><strong>Why Stay?</strong></h2>
<p>Nestled in southwestern China’s Min Mountains, Conrad Jiuzhaigou offers a quiet valley getaway immersed in nature. The property seamlessly combines tradition with luxury, locally sourced dining, and staff that go the extra mile.</p>
<h3><strong>The Area</strong></h3>
<p>Situated beside the Beautiful China Resort — a mini-district showcasing Tibetan culture — the hotel (opened in 2021) is a short walk to local shops, Jiuzhai Tibetan and Qiang Intangible Cultural Heritage Museum, and nightly bonfire dances. It is also conveniently close to attractions, just 4.4 kilometers from Zhangzha Village and 11 kilometers from Jiuzhai Valley National Park (a UNESCO World Heritage site).</p>

<h4><strong>The Feel</strong></h4>
<p>The hotel envelops guests in nature with surrounding mountains, cherry blossoms along the footpaths in spring, and warmly natural wooden paneling. Designed with inspiration from Tibetan culture it features original artwork, with a focus on cultural and natural immersion. The sprawling lobby features a floor to ceiling art centerpiece and clean design that blends with the mountain range.</p>
<h5><strong>Guest Quarters</strong></h5>
<p>Every high-ceilinged room has a balcony with a stunning view — mountain, lake, or both — as well as original artwork. The decor is light and minimal to make guests feel at ease, with traditional motifs used throughout. For guest comfort, rooms are fitted with a bathtub, coffee machine, Byredo toiletries, a well-stocked mini bar, and welcome caddy. Most rooms also have a nook by the bay window for soaking in the view, perfect in every season; even when it’s cold outside. Rooms are peppered along the hills, with those at the top being close to restaurants and those below close to the entrance. It can be quite an incline to walk all the way up, but shuttle buggies are readily available.</p>
<h6><strong>Food and Drink</strong></h6>
<p>Within the hotel are the M’eat and Ba’sin restaurants, featuring locally sourced produce such as honey, morel mushrooms, fruit, and vegetables to support local farmers and suppliers. As its name suggests M’eat is a modern smokehouse inspired specialty bar and grill with local delights such as yak meat and morel mushrooms. Open for lunch and dinner, with an open kitchen area, cozy lighting, and plush seating. Ba’sin hosts daily breakfast buffets which include yak yogurt, and local honey, as well as both local and international dishes. Both restaurants offer indoor and outdoor dining, complemented by a panoramic mountain view.</p>

<h6><strong>Wellness Factor</strong></h6>
<p>Guests can enjoy a small gym overlooking the mountain, explore the hilly compound, or take a stroll around the lake at the neighboring Hilton Jiuzhaigou Resort.</p>
<h6><strong>Family Matters</strong></h6>
<p>The hotel welcomes children and families. It offers family rooms and even has a dinosaur themed room (Kiki Dino Family Room). Kids can roam around the large, enclosed area, and are able to take part in all activities.</p>
<h6><strong>Sustainability Cred</strong></h6>
<p>Conrad Jiuzhaigou has been committed to the environment since opening. The hotel was built with eco-conscious construction that preserved the habitats of local wildlife, and native landscaping cultivates native plant species. Inside, rooms use paperless service, reduced plastic, and energy-efficient lighting. Outside, all hotel shuttles are electric, and electric charging stations are available to guests. Over 1000 electric vehicles have been charged here since 2021, reducing carbon dioxide emissions by approximately 10,000 kilograms. Besides the use of local produce that reduces the property’s carbon footprint, the hotel has reduced plastic use by approximately 168 kilograms annually since 2022 by switching from single-use toiletries to bulk-sized. Soap is recycled and reusable fabric shoe covers and laundry bags are used in place of plastic. In 2024, the hotel installed a boiler heat recovery system that converts waste heat into hot water.</p>
<h6><strong>What Else?</strong></h6>
<p>Cultural activities are plentiful here, whether a tour to the national park or visit to the museum. Guests can walk to Hilton Jiuzhaigou Resort to try on local Tibetan outfits, complete with a free photoshoot. Opposite the dress shop, the hotel showcases artisanal products handmade by Jiuzhai County Disabled Persons’ Federation. Items for sale include Sichuan double-sided embroidery art, crochet, and traditional fabric buttons. Tibetan homestead visits can also be arranged for a true immersion into local culture.</p>
