Hi Bibi Ling,
I am afraid that there is no snow that time, the best time for Xililng visit is Mid January. Is your time possible to advance your tour?
If you need, we can arrange a Chengdu tour for you.

I don't think you can book hostels in xiling ski resort online, they don't have website and you can only book it by calling them or when you are there. You can book it on hotel booking website :http://hotel.elong.net/search/list_en_2350.html?semid=bidu&semtcid=45e2d8c6-8bc0-4d51-93b3-4d2dec1c4df7#
