The other reviews say it all! The rooms are nothing special. But the service Wayne and his staff provide is perhaps the best we have experienced in China. They go above and beyond to make arrangements and accommodate you. Also, the food is great! Don't forget to try the Potato Cakes!

A friend and I traveled to Huangshan and stayed at Pine Ridge Lodge after spending 4 weeks in Beijing and Shanghai. We had come to expect little of Chinese budget hotels but were pleasantly surprised by Pine Ridge Lodge and booked it mainly on the reviews. The reason I am giving it 5 stars is not because of the accomodations... More

We stayed at the Pine Ridge Lodge for only one night and after staying there, I can safely say that you cannot go wrong if you choose the Pine Ridge Lodge as your base for exploring Huangshan. As I have never been to Huangshan before, and given our very tight timeframe, I was initially anxious about planning an intense one... More

My parents, boyfriend, and I stayed at this hotel for only two nights, but it felt like much longer because it made such a positive impression on us. The best part of our stay was definitely the staff. The owner is fabulous. He helped us plan our trips by giving great recommendations and helping us sort out the logistics. He... More

Never been to Huangshan before, I have to rely on information from website to plan my trip. I have chosen Pine Ridge Lodge based on the reviews in Tripadvisor. After making my reservation, I got...

We chose this hotel on the recommendation of friends who had visited earlier in the year and did not check Tripadvisor reviews as is our usual practice. The airport pickup arrangements worked perfectly and we enjoyed the drive to the hotel. We met Mr Tong, the owner, when we checked in and discovered that he was from the States which... More

It's a very nice place, really, the rooms, the service - everything. The owner just forgot to mention that there is a huge construction going on 24 hours a day!!! You can't here it only if you stay in the cabins (and not the main building) with your windows closed. Supposed to be over in October 2011. Eventually we had... More
