Mount Hua East Peak Hotel

Great location, close to the sunrise terrace. Get up earlier than the sunset, because of the night hikers it can be more crowded than you would expect there. Toilets 100m outside the room, but the path is well illuminated. There is a restaurant in between, looks cheap but I haven't tried it. The building is huge, but the dorms are super small. Beds are confortable but bring ear plugs. Mobile data and phone reception are great on the mountain.

What you want to know: bathrooms are effectively fancy squat style port a potties. They're up the hill just past the restaurant. Check in down the stairs from the food area at the window in the breezeway. Gentleman there was very helpful. For hot water in the morning, just push the flap aside and enter reception, it's just inside the door on the left. Yes the attendant is sleeping right there. Everyone does this before sunrise, so you're good. The restaurant workers were fairly cold toward us. If you intend to do the plank walk in the morning, for us in May, sunrise was at 530, we arrived at the plank walk entry at 625 before they open at 7, line was over 50 people long, we still waited 3.5 hours until we were on the walk. ENJOY.

The location is great, but the dorm is small and they even put two people sharing a bed, so a 10 people's dorm became an 11. The restroom looks like it's never cleaned and I couldn't find running water to wash my hands or brush my teeth. Anyway, it's your best shot to sleep at the top of the mountain, due to the location.

It rained when I reached the peak. The reception was kind to allow early checkin. There is heater in the 10-bed room. Hot water provided for own sachet of coffee and noodle cup. 1 cup of coffee costs 30 yuan. Breakfast as per photo attached. No water provided. Use cooled hot water for cleaning. . Good comfy bed.

Great location with awesome sunrise views in the morning. Very simple room, tv not working , breakfast very simple Chinese style- no beverages included

Good place. Staff was nice, food was good although expensive (very nice 牛肉面) and the location was perfect with a fantastic view. The room was basic but comfortable. You can get hot water from the reception and there's both a little restaurant and an outdoor food stall. Easy to find, I recommend taking the West Peak/西峰 cablecar on the way up. Quiet surroundings and there's a heater to keep the room warm at night. Beds were clean, no problem with lack of cleaning. The toilets smelled and there were no showers, but this was advertised in the general information already. Toilets are the same public toilets found everywhere on Hua Shan, they're not great but not terrible either. The price is not cheap, but you pay for staying on top of the mountain far from everything, and the location is perfect for the sunrise. I expected worse from the previous reviews, but this was more than fine. I didn't eat the breakfast since there was a power outage (also happened at West Peak later that day, the price for being on a high mountain top I guess). The staff apologised and asked me to wait until the power came back, but I was eager to start hiking so just decided to skip it. You could still get food from the outside stall if needed.

Best place to watch the sunrise on Huashan!

Conveniently located to witness sunset and sunrise
