Pure Cloud Hotel

A very comfortable, personalised and relaxing stay in the mountains. Free pick up & drop off service from emeishan train station made the trip to the homestay very accessible. Boss Derek was very kind to upgrade us to a suite with an expansive view of the mountains. Boss Derek, Boss Chef (great cooking!) & their whole team were very welcoming & helpful. Nestled at a strategic location to explore the various hiking/sightseeing routes, its also next to the quiet & beautiful Shengshuige. A Highly recommended stay for all!

We initially chose Pure Cloud Hotel for its proximity to Wuxiangang Bus Station and its recent opening. The drive up the narrow mountain road, full of sharp turns, was a bit unsettling for our city Didi driver, so we were secretly relieved (as was our driver) when we finally arrived. At first glance, the hotel seemed quite simple, and I wasn’t entirely sure I had made the right choice. However, any lingering doubts were quickly washed away by the warm welcome from Derek, the hotel manager, and the staff. When we got to our room, it was pure joy! The minimalist design is visually soothing, and the balcony with its expansive mountain views made us feel like just hanging around and doing nothing was more than enough. If you're the kind of traveler who feels guilty about not doing anything, rest assured that the hotel is in a beautiful section of the mountain. There's a lovely old temple and a sacred spring pond nearby—Zhongfeng Temple and Shenshui Pavilion, I believe. You’ll also enjoy the energy of hikers rushing up and down the mountain. There are enough people to make it lively but not overwhelmingly crowded like Leidongping or Jinding, where the crowds can be exhausting. A special mention goes to Derek, who exceeded all our expectations. His kindness and professionalism reminded me of the kind of service you expect from a six-star hotel, where every need is anticipated. Derek went above and beyond, making our journey to Golden Summit and onward to Leshan much smoother and more enjoyable. Since we speak minimal Chinese, he kindly helped us communicate with the next hotel, explaining how to get there. He even offered us a free ride to the bus station when we struggled to find a Didi in the area. Derek also helped arrange our transfer to Leshan. We were incredibly impressed and grateful for his assistance. If I had to suggest one area for improvement, I’d say the dinner options could use some enhancement to match the overall excellence of the stay. A small tip: If your goal is to catch the sunrise and sunset at Golden Summit, you'll need to stay at one of the mountaintop hotels near Jinding. Logistically, getting to these hotels involves taking a bus from Baoguosi or Wuxiangang Station to Leidongping, then a cable car to the upper platform, followed by a roughly one-hour hike with steep steps to Jinding. It's manageable with a backpack, but not ideal with large luggage. That’s why we chose Pure Cloud Hotel for its close proximity to Wuxiangang Bus Station, leaving our luggage there and heading up the mountain with just our backpacks.

Beautiful hotel in the clouds. Spacious room and bed with a lovely balcony overlooking the mountain. It’s also very convenient to start hiking directly from the hotel as it’s right by ShengShui Pavilion. The boss was very helpful with finding a place for me to leave my luggage for a couple of days whilst I went further up the mountain. I also had a fresh and tasty dinner in the hotel restaurant, Id highly recommend!

Fantastic service and food. The bosses and workers are extremely helpful and kind. They made you feel completely at home. It’s an escapade from city life. We ate and slept well during our 2 nites. Strongly recommend as a relaxing break

Staying at PureCloud was a really good experience. The staff were warm and welcoming. The hotel also provided a pickup and drop-off service. When we arrived at the hotel, the staff were kind and helpful, even recommending and arranging visits to several places for us. The hotel's restaurant also served delicious meals, which were quite spicy, but they could adjust the spice level to our preference, so don't worry—just ask the chef. Overall, everyone here was really helpful, and I highly recommend this place to others.

Pure Cloud had amazing room selections. The 2 and 3 bedroom options were exactly as we needed. The service from Derek was simply amazing and I would not hesitate to recommend this place as Derek helped us up to our room and helped to bring our luggages up to the top floor. The team also made a very decent breakfast and pre heated our rooms to the right temperature. View was great and access to the Golden Summit is apparently pretty easy although we did not do it to see the sunrise in the end as we were too tired from the previous day. Only tip for people coming is to make sure the knew the ride up to the hotel by car is very tight and tricky to navigate but our driver made a good job of it. Highly recommended for anyone coming to emei to visit.
