Hotels With Swimming Pools in Gansu, China

The main draw of this hotel is the location and leisure facilities. If you like to keep fit or need to get fit - then this is a perfect hotel for that - as you can integrate it into your trip whether it be for business or holiday. The pool and gym are the most impressive facilities I’ve come across in a hotel. If you can’t swim I’m sure there are lessons available which would be a great thing to do no matter the purpose of your trip. Thought the room was comfortable enough but I suppose if you weren’t using the hotel facilities you may feel it’s overpriced - we didn’t think this because we used the excellent pool and gym. We had a couple of cocktails in the lounge bar that were excellent and the service in the hotel was very attentive.

It's a great hostel! Really clean, the staff is friendly and helpful, and the atmosphere is really nice. On top of that it is well located. I highly recommend this hostel. Comment written by a French traveller. C'est une superbe auberge de jeunesse. Vraiment très propre, le personnel est accueillant et serviable (propose des excursions), et l'ambiance générale est agréable, on s'y sent rapidement ”comme à la maison”. Également, l'auberge est bien située. Je recommande vraiment cette auberge. Ce commentaire a été écrit par un voyageur français.

We arrived in Dunhuang at night, and the pick-up service arranged by the hotel was very heartwarming. The room is spacious, clean and comfortable. You can see the beautiful scenery of Mingsha Mountain in the distance outside the window. The front desk service is warm and thoughtful, making you feel like spring breeze. The hotel breakfast is delicious. The restaurant is on the 9th floor and has a large viewing platform where you can enjoy the beautiful Dunhuang. The lobby on the first floor of the hotel also provides yogurt, mineral water and seasonal fruits. The hotel's service details are very attentive. The Dunhuang landmark Rebounding Pipa is right in front of the hotel. It is very close to the Dunhuang Shazhou Night Market. It is only a 5-minute walk away. It is convenient for eating and transportation. You can take the No. 3 bus at the door directly to Mingsha Mountain, and there are direct buses to the Mogao Grottoes. I had a comfortable stay and had a lot of fun during my trip to Dunhuang. I hope to come again if I have the opportunity.

The free pickup shuttle is from another company to sell trips to tourist areas. The show and the 5-location trip to the west of silk road areas were good. They lied a bit about the availability of taxis though.

This was a great hotel for us! The room was quiet and comfortable. Even though they don’t have non-smoking rooms, they gave our room a treatment to remove any smoke odors, and we didn’t smell any smoke! However, sometimes we saw people smoking in the halls near the elevator doors which was unpleasant, or in the restaurant which was also unpleasant. But overall, it didn’t bother us. The breakfast was good except for the terrible coffee which did not even taste like coffee. The service is very good though, with friendly and kind staff. And they have very good clothes washing machines available to guests, for free. It was very helpful! I would stay here again.

Highly recommended to everyone. We traveled to Dun Huang in early May (2024), and we feel grateful for all the kindness we got here. The hotel is very clean, and the service is super accommodating. They provide free pick-up from airport (or train station), so all you need is to call them one day ahead (the receptionist can speak English if you don't speak Chinese). Everyone will smile at you and ask what they can help you when we stay there. The location is brilliant too. It is like 1000 meters away from Ming Sha mountain, and you can actually see the sand mountain when you have breakfast at the hotel (it is free too). We will definitely stay here again when we visit Dun Huang next time.

The room is large and in an excellent location, opposite the exit square of the high-speed railway station, a 3-minute walk away. It is clean and sanitary, has air conditioning and heating, the bathroom has separate wet and dry areas, the restaurant serves light cuisine and is very adaptable. The auntie was very enthusiastic and gave us effective suggestions when she knew we were not feeling well. It is also very convenient to eat around. If you carpool to the attractions, the boarding location is also good and is within the range of door-to-door pick-up. Recommended stay!

I have travelled a lot in China the last 5 years. This is probably one of the best hotels I have been. Clean, comfortable, close to everything, very nice staff. Have everything you need in the room. They leave you presents in the room, have all the free drinking water you need, free apples, just excellent welcome feeling. They go as far as pointing the shower head to the side everytime they clean the room so you don't get wet when you turn on the shower. More expensive and luxurios hotels have a lot to learn from these guys. Just excellent.

Very clean hostel and surprisingly quiet, I had very good night sleep without any need of earplugs. Great location within walking distance of city centre, XiGuan and the famous Zhongshan Bridge is just a stone's throw away. Would definitely go back to stay if I'm back to Lanzhou again.

The room was nice, with a light aromatherapy smell. Maybe because it was a special offer room, the area was relatively small, but it was sufficient. Drinking water was provided free of charge. We were given four bottles of water on the first day, and five bottles on the second day. There was also hot tea at the entrance. The waiter in the lobby did not take the initiative to provide face coverings. It was when I went out the next day that I remembered to ask the front desk for it. There is a place to dry clothes on the fifth floor. I brushed my child’s shoes and put them on the fifth floor. They were dry in one day. It is very close to the night market, but I don’t like the environment of the night market. The prices are also expensive and there are only tourists from other places. The next day, I found a restaurant that the locals liked on the Internet and went there to eat braised pancakes. The grilled lamb chops and wild vegetables from Shazhou Mountain are especially delicious. The most surprising thing was that I found a particularly large supermarket. After visiting the night market, I thought I could go to the night market or roadside shops to buy things, but it turns out that there is such a large supermarket in Dunhuang. It is also very close to the hotel, only five minutes away, and it is inside a large shopping mall. Fruits are especially cheap; cut cantaloupe is only over four yuan. Unfortunately, it only opens at 8am. I signed up for a one-day tour and left too early to come and buy it.

The hotel is just opposite Lanzhou West Railway Station. It is very convenient to travel. There are free pick-up and drop-off services. It is quite good. The waiters are very enthusiastic and polite. The invoices are all electronic. Please help to issue them and send them to me. The room has intelligent curtains and full-length windows. 🪟 The space is large. It is quite good to stay. It must be rated five stars. I will choose this hotel again when I pass by Lanzhou on business trips in the future. It is quite good [strong]

The room is warm and comfortable in winter without air conditioning. The waiter and the front desk are polite and welcoming. It is a very nice hotel.

A little walk from the Lanzhou railway station. Room is spacious and clean. Self service laundry at ground floor, but only 1 unit washer/drier combined. It’s better to have separate washer and drier in order to free up space for next users.

The location is excellent, very close to the Yellow River, and there is a food street around, which is very convenient for eating, shopping and playing. The room facilities are very complete, the bed is big, the space is good, and it is clean and hygienic. The front desk customer service is very enthusiastic and can keep your things for free. There is heating, so it won't be cold. The only drawback is that the shower space is a bit small, can this be improved?

Very happy with my stay. The reception is not located on the ground floor but staff make it very easy for you to find the elevators. The room was very clean and well maintained. All facets of the suite worked very well. The “Executive Lounge” is located in the lobby and contains a fair selection of Whiskeys and Wines. This was my first time staying in a Hilton, this hotel has now set a bar for my hotel experience.

This hotel really exceeded my expectations, the luxury vibe was palpable from the moment I stepped into the lobby. The room is spacious and bright, the decoration is elegant and comfortable, and the bed is so soft that you can relax immediately. The friendly attitude of the service staff and their quick response made the entire stay experience more perfect. Whether it is a business trip or a vacation, this is an excellent choice.

免費停車，保安盡責，樓下飯店吃了幾次，不錯。房間設施有些陳舊，住了幾次了，也習慣了。早餐菜品很多，但真的不太好吃適合我，玉米不錯，麪包太差了，麪包機還換了，啃了一片乾麪包，喝了三碗玉米粥，這搭配也是無敵了

I stayed 5 nights at this hotel. It is located right across from the Lanzhou train station. The area is very busy with a lot of shops and restaurants nearby. It is very easy to use the subway right next to the train station to go around the city. There's also a bus terminal right next to the subway station.

We arrived in Dunhuang at night, and the pick-up service arranged by the hotel was very heartwarming. The room is spacious, clean and comfortable. You can see the beautiful scenery of Mingsha Mountain in the distance outside the window. The front desk service is warm and thoughtful, making you feel like spring breeze.

I went there during the Spring Festival. The front desk manager Xiao Wang provided great service. He added WeChat in advance and arranged to pick me up at the airport. The hotel is listed as a four-star hotel. The hardware is a bit simple and the elevator is a bit slow, but the hygiene is good, the linens are up to standard, and the shower water volume is particularly large. Breakfast was also ok. The decoration still has a bit of smell. My companions are quite sensitive and felt discomfort in their eyes and throats. Later we changed to a shady room where it was not so hot and the smell was not so obvious. Overall, this hotel is very cost-effective.

1The guy at the front desk/I asked questions and didn’t know anything 2Give me a smoking room. Fortunately, I can change it. Checked in at the end of 311, it took 10 minutes for the hot water to heat up 4. The hot water at the sink takes 20 minutes to get slightly warm, and there is no water at all (it is difficult to brush teeth and wash face) 5. The clothes cannot be dried, so they have to be taken back to the room and used for heating. 6. There is a short distance from the bus station, unless you take a taxi 7 TV is broken (photos) 8The humidifier was flooded 9The only advantage is that it is clean/cheap (winter) 10 Heating takes a long time 11 There is construction work opposite and it is very noisy in the morning.

From the exterior the Dunhuang Jiayuan Hotel looks like a traditional Chinese hotel. But the room is furnished with all the modern trappings that are so essential to a weary traveler. The bedroom and attached bathroom are very clean, hot showers readily available and the bed comfortable. The hotel is right next to the Shazhou night market and within walking distance to all the transportation hubs which makes visiting Dunhuang attractions easy. And the service team was fantastic. One and all they were approachable and very helpful. The lovely lady who checked us in not only upgraded our room but she even managed to get us seats on a Western Dunhuang tour which was one of the highlights of our already amazing trip! Another recommended local dishes for us to try and we were amused to see the name of one such restaurant on a road sign! In short we love Dunhuang Jiayuan Hotel. Thank you lovely ladies for making our stay there a very satisfying one 👍

Our stay at this riverside hotel was pleasant, thanks to the nice and friendly personnel. They were consistently helpful, creating a welcoming atmosphere. The hotel's excellent location by the river and close proximity to main tourist attractions (accessible by taxi) made exploring the city a breeze. The room was spacious and impeccably clean, ensuring a comfortable retreat. While the breakfast was just okay, the reception staff's exceptional assistance stood out—they were always ready to help with anything we needed. Overall, a reliable choice for those seeking a convenient and comfortable stay near key tourist spots.
