Our stay at the Aisting Hotel during our self-driving trip to Dunhuang far exceeded our expectations! First, it's very car-friendly with a large parking lot and dedicated staff to guide you, making coming and going easy. Second, the staff are all incredibly spirited, enthusiastic, and attentive. Third, they pay attention to details, providing a humidifier and plenty of drinking water in the room. Fourth, the facilities are excellent, with smart home features throughout, zero-pressure mattresses, and a self-service laundry room. It's incredibly good value for money, and I'll definitely choose this hotel again next time I'm in Dunhuang!

Guest UserI stayed at Dunhuang Yuntian International Hotel for two nights from August 23rd to 25th, and I absolutely have to give it a rave review!
I took the train from Lanzhou to Dunhuang. I had informed the hotel of my train number in advance, and to my surprise, they arranged a complimentary pick-up service. As soon as I exited the station, I saw the driver holding a sign waiting for me, and he even helped carry my luggage to the car. This start alone earned them major bonus points.
The hotel's location is truly unbeatable, right next to Shazhou Night Market, just a few minutes' walk away. In the evenings, after exploring the night market, enjoying some BBQ, drinking apricot peel water, and buying souvenirs, I could just stroll back to the hotel. No need to worry about finding a taxi or walking too far. The bus to Mingsha Mountain stops right at the entrance, and a taxi to Mogao Grottoes only takes about ten minutes, making it super convenient for sightseeing.
I chose a room with a humidifier. Dunhuang is naturally dry in August, and with the humidifier on, sleeping was so much more comfortable; I didn't wake up in the middle of the night with a dry throat. The mattress was a zero-pressure type; you just sink into it, and I slept incredibly well. The hot water came on quickly, and the vanity thoughtfully provided disposable facial towels, which is a nice touch for women. The front desk staff were also very friendly and check-in was fast.
Breakfast starts at 7 AM and includes freshly ground coffee, yogurt, fruits, and local snacks. It's great not to have to go out hungry early in the morning looking for food, especially useful for those heading to Mogao Grottoes early.
Overall, for this price, to stay in the city center with pick-up service, a rich breakfast, and a clean, comfortable room, the value for money is truly high. I genuinely recommend this place for solo travelers or those bringing family to Dunhuang. I'll definitely stay here again next time!

AihaopengrenThere are actually many hotels in Dunhuang, and many of them have similar names, so it's crucial to be very careful when booking to avoid reserving the wrong one.
This Grand Metropark Hotel is located right by the main road, making its location very prominent. Dining options nearby are also very convenient, with a relatively famous restaurant directly across the street.
The hotel rooms are spacious and very bright. What's most worth mentioning is that they provide foot-soaking tubs and disposable foot-soaking bags. For tourists who have been tirelessly exploring Dunhuang, soaking your feet is truly a great way to relieve stress and feel comfortable.
While there are many hotels near the Dunhuang Night Market, this particular hotel is only about a five-minute walk from it.
The staff are all excellent and actively respond to your needs. This hotel is highly recommended.

Guest User1. The room was very clean, and I could see Mingsha Mountain right outside the window. In the mornings, I could even spot people climbing it.
2. The Shazhou Night Market is just outside the hotel, and there's a supermarket nearby, making shopping and dining incredibly convenient.
3. There's a bus downstairs that goes to Mingsha Mountain, and it's only 6 stops away.
4. The hotel thoughtfully provided plenty of drinking water, placed conveniently by the elevator on each floor for guests to take whenever needed. Downstairs, apricot skin tea and coffee are available all day.

Guest UserAbsolutely loved this hotel! The service was excellent, and the breakfast offered a great variety. The room was spacious, and we even got a free upgrade. The location is fantastic – just cross the Dunhuang Mother River in front, and you'll find all sorts of restaurants with good prices. They have a laundry room, making it incredible value for money. Plus, with the desert heat, having unlimited bottled water was such a thoughtful and considerate touch. A truly caring hotel!

I have to commend the hotel's service.

Anonymous UserChecked in on New Year's Eve. Two wind towels were given as a gift when I checked in. I took a photo of it specially because it was my favorite color, hehe.
Cleanliness: The room was surprisingly clean. No weird smell.
Facilities: Free toiletries are provided. The bathroom is spacious. The eco-friendly slippers are comfortable, but you can’t take them away.
Environment: Entering the hall, it is cozy, warm and the heating is very good.
Service: The beauties in the lobby are enthusiastic and warm.
To emphasize, heating is very good in winter. The bedding was clean and tidy. We stayed for two days and went out to the scenic spot on the second day. They cleaned and tidied the room without any request.
It is convenient to eat. There is an authentic beef noodle restaurant opposite the hotel, a convenience store next door, and a large supermarket around the corner, which is open on New Year's Eve. A perfect trip to Dunhuang! Dunhuang of the world, where my heart longs for!

Visiting Dunhuang in spring was an absolute delight! The city is incredibly clean and tidy, with well-organized streets, making for an excellent overall experience. The hotel I stayed at offered top-notch service, was spotlessly clean, and paid attention to every little detail, making me feel very comfortable and secure.
And the food? Oh, I have to rave about the food! The donkey meat yellow noodles were perfectly chewy and flavorful, the Huyang焖饼 (braised lamb pancake) was rich and fragrant, and to top it all off, a glass of Li Guang apricot peel water was refreshing and cut through the richness. It was all full of authentic local flavors. Beautiful scenery, a clean city, great accommodation, and delicious food—Dunhuang is definitely worth another visit!

XuqinghuiOverall, the rooms are decent, though the air conditioning in some rooms isn't very effective. The service was quite good; upon arrival, I received a welcome kit with useful items like a toilet seat cover, sand-proof towel, mosquito repellent bracelet, hand cream, tissues, and wet wipes. Laundry rooms are available on floors 2 to 5, featuring drying areas and ironing facilities. It would be even better if they could increase the number of washing machines to four, as having only one per floor isn't ideal, especially since not every floor has a laundry room. Additionally, the shower stalls are a bit too transparent, and there's no shelf to place personal toiletries or clothes. Despite these points, my overall experience was quite good.

goingnowI recently took my family to Dunhuang and we stayed at the Dunhuang Tianhe Hotel for five nights. Overall, I found the facilities impressive and the service incredibly warm, making it a perfect choice for families. Here are a few authentic highlights from our stay:
🏨 Spacious and Comfortable Rooms, Ideal for Longer Stays
We booked a king room, and the hotel itself is quite grand. The room size was very generous, with high ceilings, so there was no cramped feeling at all. Staying for five nights, there was ample space for all our luggage and activities, and the kids had room to play.
👨👩👧👦 Thoughtful and Attentive Family-Friendly Services
I especially want to commend the hotel's service. For five consecutive days, the room service was meticulous. Every evening, after a tiring day of playing at Mingsha Mountain, the hotel thoughtfully prepared foot-soaking tubs and hot water for us. Soaking our feet after a day in the desert was incredibly refreshing – anyone who's tried it knows how effective it is! For families with young children, the hotel also offers family rooms and a kids' club.
🌳 Ambiance and Location Are a Plus
The hotel boasts a Han-Tang style garden design, incorporating elements of Dunhuang culture, giving it a very grand appearance. It's also conveniently located right next to the Mingsha Mountain and Crescent Spring Scenic Area, making it very easy to get to the attractions.
After five nights, the service, room size, and family-friendliness were all excellent. It's a reliable choice for a family trip to Dunhuang. I would definitely consider staying here again on my next visit to Dunhuang.
