2-Star Hotels in Xining

From the moment we arrived at the hotel, someone was there to help with our luggage. The front desk staff were very welcoming, and the manager was exceptionally friendly. The front desk even provides a handy little guide to local attractions, which was very helpful. Our check-in process was smooth, and the room itself was great – I was very satisfied. It was also spotlessly clean, and each room has its own independent air conditioning unit that works perfectly for cooling. The hotel also offers a self-service laundry room. For anyone traveling, I highly recommend this hotel. It's cozy and comfortable, the service is excellent, the rooms are lovely, and there's free parking. Plus, it's conveniently located with easy access to transportation.

The room was clean, tidy, and spacious. The front desk staff, especially a lovely lady, was incredibly warm and attentive. Every time we left, she'd remind us to dress appropriately to avoid catching a cold, which was so thoughtful and heartwarming. ❤️ The hotel is also conveniently located right next to a food street. I'll definitely be staying here again on my next visit.

Starting with the positives. The construction and decor was great. Showering space was also nice and new. Staff were also helpful and nice. Amenities are ok. Everything you would expect for washing up. But no AC for many rooms without windows is a travesty. Only a electric fan that can only blow for 1 hour at a time. Easy to get asphyxiated at night. Horrible stench of body odor and cigarette smoke was present when I entered my room. Hygiene seemed alright until I showered. And with a small waft of the towels a terrible stench of cigarette odor pierced my nostrils.. Expecting guests to wipe off with this odorous smell is disappointing. Water also leaks from the shower compartment into the toilet floor.

Xining is a fantastic, vibrant city, and my biggest regret is not staying longer; it deserves way more time than just a quick transit stop thanks to its incredible food scene, night markets, and laid-back vibe. During my visit, I stayed at LETE Hostel, which serves as a solid, character-rich base for exploring the region. The top-floor communal space has real history and soul, beautifully flooded with sunlight, packed with green plants, a massive library, and even three cute resident birds. The ladies at the front desk are incredibly kind-hearted and welcoming, always doing their best to help out. Location-wise, it’s perfect - super convenient for the night markets, local food stalls, and bus stops, plus they offer safe bike storage for cyclists. For the price of a private room, the value and hospitality here are unbeatable, and I would absolutely stay again - and next time, I’ll be giving Xining the full week it deserves.

The hostel boasts an excellent location on Xinghai Road. My taxi driver told me it's a popular street for locals, bustling with street food and restaurants. (After two nights, I can confirm this observation!) I arrived close to 11 PM, and the male owner who checked me in was incredibly helpful, even carrying my heavy luggage to the second floor. He also added me to the hostel's WeChat group, which is great for travel info. The group announcement even has a detailed hostel introduction and a food guide – impressive! As for the room, I booked a 10-bed dorm but was kindly upgraded to a 6-bed dorm – thank you, owner! The room isn't huge, but it's very clean. There's a laundry room on the second floor, and a small open-air balcony where you can hang clothes or just relax (I heard there's a larger, proper drying area on the top floor, but I didn't go, so I can't confirm). The only slight disappointment was the women's communal bathroom on the second floor. It had an unpleasant odor, and the biggest issue was how narrow the individual stalls were. They have Western-style toilets, and the toilets themselves were quite dirty. When using the toilet, your head tends to hit the door because it's so cramped. There's a sign saying it's going to be renovated soon, and I really hope they improve it! There are also two communal toilets on the first floor, which are more spacious and have squat toilets, which are more common for Chinese people. This definitely makes up for the shortcomings of the toilets on the second floor.

The hotel lived up to its quality expectations in every aspect. The receptionists were very friendly and helpful. The water pressure in the bathroom was excellent. The room lighting was great, and the location was superb, with convenient access to transportation and dining options.

My stay at the Boway Hotel was fantastic! The room was clean and tidy, the bed was soft and comfortable, the environment was beautiful, the facilities were complete, and the soundproofing was excellent. The location is convenient, with easy access to transportation and dining options nearby. The front desk staff were warm, attentive, responsive, and professional, showing attention to detail. The breakfast was plentiful and fresh, offering excellent value for money. I will definitely choose this hotel again next time I travel. Highly recommended!

I booked a non-smoking room, but the room smelled strongly of cigarette smoke. The smell in the bathroom was very strong and extremely irritating to my nose. The room was not clean. The floor was dirty, and I found 1-2 small cockroaches. The bathroom was poorly designed and not properly separated into sections. The bed was very hard, and I woke up with back pain in the morning. There is no elevator in the building-only stairs. I had to carry my large 29-inch suitcase down from the 4th floor to the 1st floor by myself, which was very inconvenient. I originally booked 5 nights, but I had to cancel the remaining 4 nights because I simply could not continue staying there Overall, a very disappointing experience 😌

The location is particularly good, right in front of the night market, and it is very convenient for eating, drinking and having fun. Hygiene: The room is very clean, I will come again next time. Service: The service is very enthusiastic and can meet any needs.

The hotel we checked into this time was quite unexpected. As soon as we walked to the door with our suitcases, a handsome staff member came to pick us up. I was stunned. It turned out that he was watching us take our suitcases to help us carry our luggage! 😄😄😄 Checking in at the front desk was very fast. It took only a minute or two to complete the check-in. The service attitude was also very good. The little brother kept smiling and helped us carry our luggage throughout the process. I was very touched. The room is also good. Disposable towels, toilet mats and mineral water are provided as gifts. For more than 100 yuan, so many cleaning supplies are given away. What a conscientious business! Room hygiene: Very clean, including bedding, sink, and bathroom. Although there is no elevator, it gave us a warmer feeling! Worthy of praise! ! ! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍,
