Silk Road Promise Hotel has carefully selected 10 exclusive independent courtyards within the core scenic area of Kashi Old Town.
As a vital hub along the Silk Road, the Old Town of Kashi embodies both ancient charm and modern vibrancy. We have renovated these historic buildings, highlighting their distinctive verandas and exquisite pillars as key features. While preserving the ancient rammed-earth construction techniques, the buildings also incorporate modern boutique design to deliver a high-quality accommodation experience.
Hiding in the bustling streets yet luxurious in experience, Silk Road Promise offers private courtyard butler services. We will conduct a comprehensive needs assessment for our guests before their journey begin. The butler will accompany you throughout your leisurely exploration of the old town, sharing stories about history, culture, and lifestyle as a local tour guide, creating a warm, family-like travel experience—as if you are guided by a family.
The Old Town of Kashi embraces a spirit of inclusivity that puts everyone at ease. Our 10 buildings are designed to provide five immersive experiences: accommodation, tea breaks, art bazaars, intangible cultural heritage workshops, and local lifestyle activities, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the cultural pulse of the old town.
Furthermore, Silk Road Promise is a co-creation project in cultural tourism, deeply collaborating with organizations such as "自然会知道" (Nature Knows), "守护荒野" (Guard Wilderness), "艺术守护荒野" (Art Guard Wilderness), and the studios of masters for intangible cultural heritage. The partnerships with these globally connected Non-Profit organaization aims to enhance your perception of this land and make your travel experience even more unique.
"My recent stay at the Silk Road Rendezvous B&B in Kashgar Old City completely overturned three of my preconceived notions about B&Bs in just a few days.
Change 1: Re-evaluating B&Bs – More than just a place to sleep, it's about living your dream life.
The moment I stepped into their private courtyard, the world instantly quieted down. Outside, there was the vibrant hustle and bustle of the thousand-year-old city, but inside the courtyard, it was a tranquil oasis where time seemed to stand still. Drinking tea and simply relaxing under the big tree, bathed in dappled light, I truly experienced a 'haven in the heart of the city.' This was exactly the Kashgar I'd dreamt of – the B&B itself was a destination.
Change 2: Re-evaluating service managers – From 'call if you need anything' to 'being quietly accompanied and pampered.'
Xiao Mu and Xiao Yue were warm, thoughtful, and incredibly attentive. They even kindly accompanied us on tours of the old city, explaining its history, helping us book show tickets, assisting us in attending a Uyghur wedding, and teaching us Uyghur dances. Their constant care made us feel incredibly warm, surprised, and touched!
Change 3: Re-evaluating accommodations within a scenic area – Who says vibrancy and tranquility can't coexist?
I used to worry that B&Bs in scenic areas would be 'noisy, chaotic, and expensive.' But here, opening the door brings you into the vibrant daily life of the ancient city, while closing it envelops you in the serenity of my private courtyard. It turns out that even in the heart of a scenic area, you can find the blissful feeling of a secluded retreat.
Finally, I want to extend a special thanks to the two managers, Xiao Mu and Xiao Yue.
You transformed 'service' into genuine 'companionship.' One created comfort in the rooms, and the other planted warmth in our hearts. While the beautiful sights and delicious food of Kashgar might eventually fade from memory, your smiles will stay with me forever."
