Banyan Tree Jiuzhaigou · CaiyuanFor this guide we have gathered the best hotels in Jiuzhaigou: two 5-star hotels, from 132 euros a night.The two luxury hotels in Jiuzhaigou cost 132 € and 216 € a night – 84 euros apart.
Conrad Jiuzhaigou · ZhangzhaAt the Conrad Jiuzhaigou the suitespot benefits apply from the first night.
And that is exactly what turns the price comparison round.
The nightly rate is the figure people compare. Here it misleads.
The Banyan Tree Jiuzhaigou costs 132 € a night – but requires two nights. The Conrad Jiuzhaigou costs 216 € and applies from the first.
Work it through:
• One night: 2 × 132 = 264 € against 216 €. The cheaper hotel costs you 48 euros more.
• Two nights: 264 € against 432 €. Now the order is right again – and the gap is wide.
So the line falls exactly at the second night. Below it the dearer hotel wins, above it the cheaper one – and by a clear margin.
Our advice: tell us first how many nights you are staying, not which hotel interests you. In Jiuzhaigou the length of stay answers the hotel question on its own.
The two best hotels in Jiuzhaigou sit differently in relation to the valley.
The Conrad Jiuzhaigou from 216 € offers 13 categories, among them six suites. From three of them you look out over the lake – and the lakes are the reason people come to Jiuzhaigou. Our recommendation for anyone who wants the water in view.
In Caiyuan stands the Banyan Tree Jiuzhaigou from 132 € with 8 categories, among them one suite and one junior suite. Our recommendation for anyone staying longer.
Our travel advisors know the routes between the two addresses and work them out for your particular occasion.
Together the best hotels in Jiuzhaigou offer 21 categories.
At the Conrad Jiuzhaigou the thirteen categories climb in clear steps: five times 50, twice 55, three times 110, twice 300 – and once 460 square metres.
So the entry here already sits at 50 square metres, and towards the top the area multiplies by nine.
For the Banyan Tree Jiuzhaigou our travel advisors have the square metres confirmed before you book, category by category.

How long to stay: three nights. The valley of Jiuzhaigou is long, and so are the paths through it – seeing the upper lakes takes a whole day, and the journey into the valley takes the first. Three nights are the shortest sensible form here.
At the Conrad Jiuzhaigou the suitespot benefits apply from the first night, at the Banyan Tree Jiuzhaigou from two nights.
When it is at its best: in October, when the woods turn and the water throws the colours back. Our recommendation for a first visit.
From May to June the waterfalls carry the most water and the valley is green. Our recommendation for anyone who wants to come before the autumn crowds.
And whatever the date: you get the suitespot benefits in the quietest week of the year exactly as in the busiest.
At both hotels breakfast for two people, a hotel credit of 100 US dollars, an upgrade subject to availability and a late check-out are included. You earn points at both – only in different programmes.
