Shangketang Hotel

With an upscale vibe that skews more towards a wellness retreat than a spiritual one, Shangketang Hotel – close to the Zhiyuan Temple – has rooms with rosewood furniture, flat-screen TVs and plush carpets (some rooms may have a wet carpet smell though). Weekday discounts can knock rooms down to ¥480, ¥720 on weekends. The in-house vegetarian restaurant is the best in town.
