Check in at the Mountain City Cloud Hotel, Chongqing Ritz-Carlton and Hyatt Centric Hotel

On this trip to Chongqing, I stayed at this high-altitude cloud hotel near Jiefangbei✨ It truly is the best viewing platform for the night scenery of the Mountain City!

🚩【Prime Location】
• Located on floors 58-61 of the Jiefangbei WFC Global Financial Center, just downstairs is Bayi Food Street/Hongya Cave, and a 10-minute walk to the Yangtze River Cableway
• Unbeatable night view! From the room, you can see the confluence of the two rivers and the Raffles City sail-shaped building, with a stunning light show at night

💎【Hotel Highlights】
• **Cloud Lobby**: The panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows on the 58th floor at check-in will amaze you (recommended to come between 4-5 PM for a dreamy transition from sunset to night view)
• **Sky Infinity Pool**: The infinity pool on the 61st floor faces the Qiansimen Bridge directly; remember to bring bright-colored swimwear for great photos
• **Detail Lover’s Perks**: The room is equipped with a capsule coffee machine and Guerlain bath set, and there’s a little yellow duck bath toy by the tub

📸【Photo Tips】
1. By the room window: turn off the lights at night and use long exposure on your phone to capture car light trails
2. Stairwell on the 61st floor: geometric lines and mirror design, perfect for black-and-white style Instagram shots
3. Restaurant terrace on the 6th floor: shoot from a low angle to capture people with the WFC building in the frame

🍲【Nearby Food Tips】
• 3-minute walk to "Pei Jie Old Hotpot" (no queue after 11 PM)
• Delivery options include "Ghost Baozi" sauce meat buns and "One Yogurt Cow" purple rice pudding
• Hidden perk: the hotel breakfast includes a Chongqing noodle stall, the spicy wontons in chili oil are amazing

⚠️【Notes】
• Room selection tip: booking the "Deluxe River View Room" costs just 200+ more than the basic room but offers a much better view (make sure to choose a high floor)
• Transportation reminder: it’s recommended to take a taxi to Liziba monorail station, walking involves a steep uphill climb that’s tough
• Pitfall to avoid: it’s very hard to get a taxi near Jiefangbei on Sunday nights, so take Metro Line 1 instead

💡In summary: This hotel combines all the "magical Mountain City" elements—high altitude, night views, and great food, and you can even watch the light show while soaking in the tub!
