Qinghai Chenxin Hotel (Xining Railway Station)
9.3 (1,054 reviews)

Qinghai Chenxin Hotel (Xining Railway Station) ★★★

📍 Building B4, Plot 2, Railway Station Commercial and Office Resettlement Area, Chengdong District, Xining

"So convenient! The front desk staff were really enthusiastic and friendly. The hotel's location is ideal for sightseeing. I stayed there three times in a row, leaving my luggage behind to travel light."

Holiday Inn Express XINING RAILWAY STATION by IHG
9.3 (3,167 reviews)

Holiday Inn Express XINING RAILWAY STATION by IHG ★★★★

📍 No. 145 Huzhu West Road, Chengdong District, Chengdong District, Xining

"Service: The service was good, offering pick-up and drop-off from the station, and the driver was very friendly. Location: Very close to the train station, a 5-minute drive. Breakfast: The food was tasty, but the portions were too small. Ambiance: The hotel is thoughtfully designed, with plenty of surfaces to place belongings, which is very convenient. Drawbacks: The sound insulation between floors is poor. I could hear thumping noises from the upstairs room late at night, and I also clearly heard hangers clanging against something from upstairs, possibly due to pipe connections."

Qinghai Baiyun Xiangling Hotel
8.6 (1,148 reviews)

Qinghai Baiyun Xiangling Hotel ★★★

📍 About 150 meters east of Railway Station Plaza, Chengdong District, Xining

"Got a free room upgrade, which was great! The location is super convenient, and luggage storage was easy. Too bad there's no air conditioning, so I had to rely on the fan."

Heart Anchor Hotel (Xining Caojiabao International Airport)
9.2 (363 reviews)

Heart Anchor Hotel (Xining Caojiabao International Airport) ★★★★

📍 About 140 meters northwest of the intersection of Xihe Expressway and Xingguang Road, Ping'an District, Haidong

"Five-star review | Xining Xinbo Hotel (Caojiapu Airport Branch) This time I brought my two kids to Qinghai, and because of our itinerary, I specifically chose this hotel close to the airport. It turns out this decision was incredibly smart! Definitely a five-star review. Location & Transportation: The hotel is very close to Caojiapu Airport and offers a 24-hour complimentary airport shuttle service. After we landed, one call and the driver arrived quickly, which was super convenient. For travelers with late flights or those catching an early flight the next day, this is absolutely the top choice. Room Facilities: The room was very new; you could tell it had been recently renovated, but there was no strange odor, which I really appreciated. The bedding was soft and clean, making for a very comfortable sleep. Although it's near the airport, the soundproofing was good, so it was quiet at night, and the kids slept soundly. Cleanliness: The entire hotel was exceptionally clean. From the lobby to the hallways and the room itself, everything was spotless, which made our stay very reassuring. Service Attitude: The front desk staff were warm and attentive. Check-in was quick, and they proactively informed us about breakfast and the shuttle service. They even gave us yogurt upon check-in, a thoughtful detail that was much appreciated. Overall Experience: This is a highly cost-effective airport hotel, suitable for family travel. Next time I fly to Xining, I'll choose this place again! Recommendation Index: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐"

Haidong International Hotel
9.0 (917 reviews)

Haidong International Hotel ★★★★★

📍 No. 8 Zhongguancun East Road, Ping'an District, Haidong

"1. The breakfast was terrible, not as good as Hanting or similar restaurants. 2. The room was very old and not worth the 300+ yuan price tag. 3. The airport shuttle service was terrible. It was shared with the apartment, so there were always long waits – both for pick-up and drop-off."

Boli Yabu Hotel Hotels in Xining

Boli Yabu Hotel

"The hotel is located in a great shopping district, making its location excellent. The breakfast is a rich mix of Chinese and Western options, and we even received complimentary welcome fruit upon arrival. The facilities are comprehensive, with a free gym and laundry room. Overall, our stay was fantastic!"

Sofitel Xining Hotels in Xining

Sofitel Xining

"After comparing a few hotels, I still decided to go with Sofitel! And I'm so glad I did, it was a truly nice experience. Firstly, the hotel has a fantastic design; it doesn't feel old or dated at all, and the facilities are impeccably maintained, definitely five-star standard. Secondly, the billiard and ping-pong rooms are a real highlight! Thirdly, the service was incredibly thoughtful. It just so happened to be my birthday during my stay, and my butler, Xiao Qi, thoughtfully delivered a birthday cake – I was truly touched!"

New Century Hotel Xining Qinghai Hotels in Xining

New Century Hotel Xining Qinghai

"This hotel offers extremely poor value for money. The price isn't cheap, but the service is terrible: the breakfast is awful, with very limited options, not even a basic fried egg. The facilities are poor; there are only two washing machines, one of which is broken, so don't expect to use them. The elevators are terrible; several elevators exist, some require access control, others don't, leaving you guessing whether you need a room card. The service is poor; the staff seem to not know each other. I added the manager on WeChat to request an invoice, but when I got to the front desk, they said they didn't know anything about it, that the manager was in a meeting, and I'd have to wait for him. The design is poor; the curtain between the bathroom and bedroom is almost transparent, so you can clearly see your child showering outside."

"Have fluffy pillows, spacious room and toilet, very clean too. Location is near the railway station, so quite convenient. No air-conditioning, but luckily the nights were cooling. Windows were quite small to let the cool air in though."

Holiday Inn Express XINING RAILWAY STATION by IHG ★★★★
"After our trip to Qinghai, we returned to the Holiday Inn Express, and it felt like coming back to civilization. The front desk staff were professional and friendly. There's underground parking, and the room was clean and spacious. For dinner, we had 'Kaiguo Lamb' at the hotel restaurant – selected short ribs simmered in broth for 15 minutes, then dipped in sauce, which was absolutely delicious! We finished with some vegetables cooked in the same pot. The breakfast spread, a mix of Western and Chinese, was also very rich. Compared to other Holiday Inn Express hotels in mainland China, this one offered local specialties like yogurt and noodles. If I ever come back to Xining, I'll definitely choose to stay here again."

"Clean room. There is everything you need to take a shower. Huge plasma TV, very huge. It's all for watching movies! There is a free transfer from the hotel to the airport. Very fast and convenient. Even at an early departure. The restaurant and cafe close very early. Didn't like this moment. In any case, thanks for everything!"

Haidong International Hotel ★★★★★
"I wanted to leave a bad review as soon as I checked out. I booked a family room but was upgraded to an executive room at the front desk. However, the master bedroom was 30 degrees Celsius, unbearably hot, and opening the window did nothing to improve the temperature. Oh, and by the way, the rooms facing the hotel have a direct view of the elevated highway and high-speed rail line, so the soundproofing of the windows is very poor. I called the front desk at 1 a.m., and they suggested I change rooms. I asked them to lower the temperature of the underfloor heating, but that didn't help either. I finally managed to fall asleep with the air conditioning on. The Chinese restaurant was practically unmanned; don't expect any service here. Staying here is worse than staying at a Ji Hotel."

Xining High Speed Railway Station Hampton by Hilton Hotel ★★★★
"This is a brand new hotel with excellent, state-of-the-art facilities. The surrounding area is also very convenient. What really stands out is how friendly they are to our Hui community – the breakfast is entirely Halal, which is a huge plus! The Serta mattress in the room was incredibly comfortable, and the front desk service was fantastic; they even upgraded me to a deluxe king room! Highly recommend!"
