Marriott's unique presence in Xinjiang, the Four Points by Sheraton Hotel in Urumqi Zhongjian

I never imagined that Marriott, a powerhouse that commands presence everywhere, operates only one hotel in Xinjiang, which accounts for one-sixth of the country's area, the Four Points by Sheraton in Urumqi Zhongjian. Therefore, after driving back from the Duku Highway, I made a special trip to check in at the provincial capital to commemorate the occasion. The hotel is located in the northern new district of Urumqi, close to the Olympic Sports Center and Hongguangshan Botanical Garden. It is not conveniently close to the city center or the airport, and there is no subway. The surrounding area seems to be still under development, with incomplete facilities. If you want to dine out or entertain, you need to drive at least four or five kilometers south. The treatment of members is generous and friendly, with no need for heart-to-heart talks, and a direct upgrade to a suite. The hotel lobby is not large and a bit dim, but the design brings out new ideas, with a super high starlight chandelier composed of the 12 zodiac signs, constantly changing. The suite has an unconventional and slightly odd layout of one bedroom, one living room, and two bathrooms, with an aesthetic online, bold colors, and quite artistic. However, the living room and bedroom have different orientations and are connected by a corridor. The bedroom window faces west, and there is only a narrow strip of it, which makes it dark when the curtains are drawn and exposed to the sun when they are open. The main bathroom is surprisingly the same size as the bedroom, but unfortunately, it does not have a separate toilet space. The tropical rainforest system in the shower, set to the second gear of hot water, is very much to my liking. There is no executive lounge, so the mini bar is free, but only with two bottles of drinks. The fitness center is on the third floor, not large, and without a swimming pool. This is probably one of the reasons why it can only be branded as Four Points. Breakfast the next day was arranged in the restaurant on the first floor, nothing surprising, standard quality. Only the pomegranate juice, Kazakh salty milk tea, and local pastries make one willing to try. Overall, it is suitable for business guests or tourists who have been to Urumqi multiple times and are not sensitive to location. Using Marriott points for redemption offers great value for money.
