We arrived at Halfway House after 6 hrs of hiking - what we wanted most was a nice hot shower! The room was clean and what we expected until we opened the door to the bathroom (we had a room with bathroom).... the floor was soaking wet, towels were still damp, shower floor rusted through and it stunk like sewage....

Probably the best thing I can say about this place is that a lot of people stay here so you get to have a nice evening chatting to other hikers. As for the actual hostel, we paid a very reasonable 80RMB for a twin room. It had a great view but zero insulation so was freezing and very, very noisy.... More

I stretched my hike to three days. I stayed at Naxi Family my first night and got to Halfway Guesthouse about 4.5 hours after leaving in the morning. I could have finished the hike that day, but I wanted to appreciate the views longer and the view from Halfway is spectacular. It's at a narrow part of the gorge so... More

After 6 hours of hiking, you can expect more than a leaking shower, freezing non isolated rooms, risky electrical equipment and a lot of noise from the staff more than by other customers. Nobody else around, especially in the winter means no care for customers.

Don't stop here!!! Looks can deceive ... This place looks nice enough but is the worst place we've stayed in China. The young staff members short changed us, were completely disinterested and our bathroom stuck like sewage. No toilet paper supplied, when i requested some they tried to charge me. Food was terrible, overly salty and breakfast took nearly an... More

There were more than twenty hikers staying there in the night. People came from China, Korea, France, Israel met together. It is good to see so many people here after hiking in the trail without seeing any people. The room is clean and comfort enough. Shower water is hot and strong. My family live in a three beds room with... More

This is probably the most famous guesthouse in the Tiger Leaping Gorge, and management knows it. They don't really make an effort, but it was a good enough place to stay. I was here during the winter and there were about 10 people in total, so I had the whole dorm room for myself for just 30 yuan, so that... More

We reached halfway guesthouse after the notorious 28 bends and about 60 mins walking afterwards. Having seen Michael Palins Himalaya we were looking forward to stay there for the night (wife was pregnant, so we decided to spread the trek over 3d). When we got there, i told the owner about our plans, on which he responded with nothing more... More

For a lodge that essentially has a captive audience of hikers from the Tigers Leaping Gorge trek, as there is little to no competition near this property, I found the prices to be fair. Its clean, warm and the only negative would be that having a hot shower is not going to be an option - especially if its a... More
