[quote=ELLYSE,391245]The well-located 4-star hotels which I can think of, all have rates beyond 1000 RMB/night, even without the Expo to drive up prices. If you don't mind being pretty far from the Expo then you might want to consider the Crowne Plaza Fudan which I know you can get for within that price range. No "hostels" in Huangshan summit area but hotels have dorm rooms with/without ensuite. Stay NOT on a Fri/Sat night if you want to save money. I usually recommend taking the Taiping cable car up, West Sea Canyon hike, stay overnight (usually Baiyun Hotel or Paiyunlou Hotel) then descend via Western Steps the next day. Generally 2 full days for Huangshan (the mountain itself) should be fine. Most comfortable way to get there would be flight and then hire a vehicle and driver to the mountain, but unsurprisingly that would also be the most expensive option. As I mentioned a few lines above I usually book Baiyun Hotel or Paiyunlou Hotel, they have dorms as well as private rooms. Take your pick of route (and/or cable cars), I can't generalise about your physical fitness/mobility level based on your age alone. If anyone has further queries, please email me at ellyse99@yahoo.com and put "TravelChinaGuide" and your own username (eg Guairu or ColonelTed) in the subject line.[/quote]
