Yitel Collection Yanji

The Yitel Collection Yanji is a mid-range hotel at No. 2562-4 Changbaishan Road in Yanji, the capital of the Yanbian Korean Autonomous Prefecture in eastern Jilin Province, China. The property lies about two kilometres from the city centre, which gives it a slightly quieter setting than the hotels on the central streets while remaining a short taxi ride from the main shopping and dining areas. Changbaishan Road is a major thoroughfare named for the mountain range that dominates the region, and the hotel's position on it suits travelers heading toward the Changbai Mountain area by road. The Yitel brand is a Chinese mid-market hotel chain, and the Collection line targets business and independent leisure travelers who want modern rooms, consistent standards and simple, efficient service at moderate prices. Rates are around CNY 220 to 420 per night, roughly USD 33 to 63. Listed room types are Standard Rooms, Deluxe Rooms and Suites. Amenities include a fitness center, a restaurant, wifi, a business center and parking. The restaurant offers on-site dining, and breakfast at hotels of this class typically provides Chinese staples with a few Western choices. Yanji's Korean heritage means that visitors can find Korean barbecue, cold noodles and rice-based dishes at restaurants within a short drive. The business center and parking are practical for guests traveling for work or by car. Visitors should show the Chinese name, 延吉宜必思精选酒店, to taxi drivers, as English is limited in the prefecture. The hotel suits business travelers, couples and small groups who prefer a contemporary property away from the busiest streets, and who plan onward trips to Changbaishan, Hunchun or the Tumen River border area. Because the location is outside the very centre, guests should factor in short taxi transfers when visiting the central markets or the railway station. Winter visitors should also allow extra time for travel, since snow and ice slow road traffic in Yanbian between December and March.
